It’s Trilobite Tuesday! Meet Heliopeltis, one of Morocco’s strangest Devonian trilobites. This 400-million-year-old marine arthropod had a small body, large eyes, and long spines. Scientists think its unusual physique indicates that this species floated on gentle ocean currents.

Scientists Reveal Traces of Ancient Ocean in the Himalayas

Scientists Reveal Traces of Ancient Ocean in the Himalayas. #AncientOcean #sciencenews #news #Himalayas

Ancient Ocean in the Himalayas: Scientists from the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru, and Niigata University, Japan, have made a groundbreaking discovery of remnants of an ancient ocean in the Himalayas. The team found water droplets trapped in mineral deposits dating back approximately 600 million years. This discovery could provide crucial insights into a significant oxygenation…

I love Poseidon's voice in Epic. He sounds furious and ecstatic at the same time. He sounds feral, which fits so much his whole character in mythology. Poseidon was the creator of horses, the storm bringer, the earth shaker. He was meant to represent the wild, dangerous side of the ocean and nature. This is the god that gets innocent men killed at sea four times a week minimum. So him sounding wild makes a lot of sense.

Also with how he says "Odysseus of Ithaca!" he sounds like a sports commenter. 10/10.

I want to see a fanfic of Casey "just fucking time travelled" Jones absolutely losing his balls over simple things such as birds, cotton candy, ice cream, trees even(how many trees did we see in the future?? How many??) And being fascinated by shopping malls and all the clothes in them, flowers FLOWERS, butterflies, ants on the sidewalk. Ofcourse he is no caveman he understands how all this works and it wont take him time to get used to it but BOY IS THIS DIFFERENT IN THE BEST WAY. Oh and imagine him seeing the fucking ocean holy shit.

Casey, at the beach, absolutely flabbergasted: so- so you're telling me ITS ALL JUST WATER??

Leo, having this conversation for the 15th time: yes, Casey

Casey: and what's after that???

Raph: there's more water

Casey: IT'S MORE WATER?? SO LIKE, ITS JUST THIS BIG...BIG MASS OF WATER? I've heard stories about it but no one ever told me it would be THIS HUGE.

Donnie: it is also highly saline in nature

Casey: this whole thing has salt in it??

Mikey: there's also all sorts of tiny and large fishies living in it!

Casey: oh my God there's things living in it

🐠 Daily Fish Fact: 🐠

Coelacanths were once known only from fossils and were thought to have gone extinct approximately 65 million years ago. Much to scientists' surprise, the first living coelacanth was discovered in 1938. Numerous characteristics are unique to this fish. Among them is the presence of a "rostral organ" in the snout that is part of the electrosensory system, and an intracranial joint or "hinge" in the skull that allows the anterior portion of the cranium to swing upwards, greatly enlarging the gape of the mouth.

It’s Fossil Friday! Let’s swim back in time about 85 million years to the Late Cretaceous Period to meet Xiphactinus, a gigantic predatory fish. This species could reach lengths of 17 ft (5.2 m) and was capable of swallowing a 6-ft- (2-m-) long fish whole!

The Museum’s Xiphactinus fossils come from Logan County, Kansas, which is home to 70-ft- (21.3 m-) tall sedimentary formations. Though that might not sound like an ideal home for an ocean-dweller, the entire area was covered by a vast inland sea during the Cretaceous.

Do you rate extinct species? Anomalocaris my beloved…

Today on CHUNK! FUNK! GUNK! We rate

the ANOMALOCARIS:

0/10 Chunk

10/10 Funk

0-1/10 Gunk

As a prehistoric shrimp-thing, these guys are mostly exoskeleton, no chunk. I also couldn’t find anything on their slime or mucous secretion, which makes sense since we only have fossils to go off of. I’m left to assume that they were dry little guys. They min-maxed for maximum funk though. Look at this guy. What a creature.

Overall: 7/10

I don’t know a whole lot about fossils since I didn’t have a dinosaur phase. However, I do love a good Cambrian creechur. I want to pat its flat little head.

wonder who this is!

#art #artwork #oc #artist #dragon #wings of fire #wof #wings of fire oc #wof oc #oc: trench #at least for now idk. not too sold on it but if nothing else its his alias #seawing #anyway hi! this is an ancient seawing who rarely if ever comes up to the surface and hasnt spoken a surface language in centuries #he had a skywing animus lover way back in the day who enchanted him in order to save him #from skywings who found out about their relationship #the skywing flew off after their home was burned down and in a fit of rage trench called forth a torrential rain at the attackers #so now trench waits. and waits. and waits. for their skywing to return #they live alone and in the deeper parts of the ocean where they cant be found easily #but they keep up with Current News with their given animus abilities so theyre still in the loop #he tries to be nice but hes very secretive and knows a lot more than he lets on
