Une éclipse de Lune sur Terre, c'est une éclipse de Soleil sur la Lune.... :)
Oh. My. Wow. This image here, THIS STUNNING PHOTO, was taken by Blue Ghost on the Moon. Because while we saw a lunar eclipse on Earth, the Moon saw a solar eclipse at the same time. That's us, Earth, eclipsing the Sun. And it just gives me goosebumps to see like this!!

During MIS 3 a group of Neanderthals transported at least 15 marine fossils collected from the surrounding area, to Prado Vargas cave. Why?
Were Neanderthals the First Collectors?

Sad fact: The U.S. is the largest known market for trade in painted bats, who are native to South and Southeast Asia. Their populations are declining, and their biggest threat is overcollection for decor.

Painted bats belong alive in the wild — not dead on walls.
Tell Amazon and eBay to stop selling painted woolly bats so their populations can again flourish in the wild — where they belong.
