Random Doctor Who Facts You Might Not Know, Part 49
If you recall from a previous part, it is a class 2 intervention for a Time Lord to set themselves up as a god, and the punishment for this is vaporization. (Audio: False Gods) On an unrelated note, the Doctor is referred to ans treated as a god by many races and species in many different stories.
The Fifth Doctor has given Turlough and likely his other companions long, extended lectures on cricket. (Audio: Phantasmagoria)
The Master was connected to everything and nothing while stuck inside the Eye of Harmony. (Audio: Planet of Dust)
Sarah Jane was aware of the Master before they met in the Death Zone. (Novel: Managra) This suggests that maybe she heard of him through journalism or through UNIT, or maybe, of course, the Doctor spoke about the Master often enough that she became somewhat familiar with who he is.
The Twelfth Doctor once performed surgery on Danny Pink when he had been caught in a blast on an alien world. It was very important to both of them that Clara never found out about it. (Audio: War Wounds)
Time Lords have an instinctive fear of the Ravenous, like how sheep tend to be afraid of wolves and how deer freeze in headlights. (Audio: Deeptime Frontier)
By one account, Sarah Jane thought of the Third Doctor as a father figure but the Fourth Doctor as a mad uncle. (Novel: Managra)
The Master keeps a well stocked liquor cabinet. (Novel: Deadly Reunion)
Under the influence of cyberparticles, K-9 would say "no" instead of "negative." (Audio: The Fate of Krelos)
The Fourth Doctor recalled beating Ernest Hemingway at tiddlywinks, and apparently, Hemingway never forgave him for it. (Audio: Death Match)
The First Doctor and Susan were being pursued by the Chancellery Guard when they stole the TARDIS and ran away from Gallifrey. (Audio: The Beginning)
The Fifth Doctor once used his cricket bat to deflect a sword blow, but his cricket bat was damaged by the impact. This saddened the Doctor. (Comic: The Tides of Time)
The Guardians of Time number six in total and is called the Six-Fold God. All the aspects of the universe are split amongst the six of them. Included in the Six-Fold God are the White Guardian of Light in Time, the Black Guardian of Darkness and Chaos, and the Crystal Guardian of Dream and Fantasy (also known as the Toymaker). (Novel: Divided Loyalties)
The Fifth Doctor and Turlough once showed up to stop an evil from committing murder, only to find multiple versions of the TARDIS nearby and that the previous victims, burnt beyond recognition, all had two hearts. The Doctor realized that he was caught in a paradox and that the previous victims were his future selves who had also shown up to stop the murders. (Audio: Repeat Offender)
According to some, the Doctor was the best agent the Celestial Intervention Agency ever had. (Audio: Intervention Earth)

We're taking a late afternoon dive into oceanic Iowa, as it existed 359–352 million years ago. 
Sometime during this window, USNM specimen 6094 was living its best life. 
The fossils preserved here, and on view in #DeepTime, are mostly crinoids. During the Paleozoic Era, crinoid forests covered the seafloor and were akin to the colorful coral reefs found today. 
Dense clusters of delicate sea lilies prospered in shallow seas, gathering food in their feathery arms. Different species grew to different heights and evolved arms of many shapes. Most species disappeared in a mass extinction 252 million years ago. Because of their hard skeletons, they left spectacular fossils. 
Though not as dominant as they once were, crinoids still exist. Those that have a stalk are commonly referred as sea lilies, while those that float freely in the water are called feather stars. Both have frilled arms with branches, called pinnules, that give them a feathered appearance.

Children of Gallifrey, taken from their families age of eight to enter the Academy. And some say that's when it all began. When he was a child. That's when the Master saw eternity.
As a novice, he was taken for initiation. He stood in front of the Untempered Schism. It's a gap in the fabric of reality through which could be seen the whole of the vortex.
You stand there, eight years old, staring at the raw power of time and space, just a child. Some would be inspired.
Devonire refused to rest. He would spend days sitting in the same spot, his balcony overlooking the caldera site, contemplating what he could offer the Faction’s members in order to make them return home… [The Book of the War, “Academician Devonire”]
Some would run away.
The Grandfather’s first act, according to this tradition, was to sever one arm with an ordinary knife: an important symbolic gesture, as the arm would certainly have been marked with the Houses’ criminal tattoo, a biodata tag which would have linked the Grandfather to the House authorities via his own history. [The Book of the War, “The Grandfather’s Arm”]
And some would go mad.
Umbaste approached the caldera defenceless, dropping the bio-imprimaturs which protect House agents from deeptime phenomena and opening his biodata to the caldera. For an entire year he remained within a fugue-state, his body little more than a husk, his biodata no longer rooted in the soil of the Homeworld and his psyche lost somewhere in the meta-structure of history. Eventually he re-surfaced, although all he could say was a single word, over and over. The word in question is open to English interpretation, but when stripped of its time-active connotations it’s usually rendered as: ‘One.’ [The Book of the War, “Academician Umbaste”]

"The Horn has been saved!! One of the most powerful discoveries given to us by science has been learning the astounding and glorious history of how we got here.  A key part of that discovery was the finding of the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation (CMB, see picture below), literally the glow of the Big Bang or Great Radiance itself!  The actual structure which gave us our earliest baby picture of ourselves was under threat from developers (for building a condo unit), but now, with our petition and the efforts of many others, has been saved!  A number of events are planned for the opening on April 20th, in Holmdel, NJ!
The celebrations on April 20th at the site of the Horn in Holmdel NJ begins with a ribbon cutting at 10 am, which will include Robert Wilson, who was one of the original discoverers of the Big Bang in 1964 (!).  Both before and after that (8:30 – 2:30) is the celebration of the discovery of the Big Bang by the Deeptime Network (preregistration is required for that as attendance is limited – register here before it fills up), with the rest of the day following.  If it works for you, this could be a great Naturalistic Pagan Pilgrimage."

DeepTime Collective is a collaboration between artists Amanda Leigh Evans and Tia Kramer that unearths how we understand ourselves within the interdependent constructs of time, place, community and landscape. Our work has been synergistically developed in partnership with artists, performers, geologists, young people, mathematicians, writers, farmers, software architects, mothers, immigrants and educators. The concept of deep time refers to many methods of perceiving or embodying time, including geologic time, the unusual freedom within unawareness of time, and visualizing one’s place within the lineage of ancestors and descendants. We are interested in how the elastic threads of time connect us with ancient, present, and future ways of being. We seek moments of exchange that alter our knowing of time, place and each other.  Visit the links below to view recent projects. 
A Day Without a Clock (2023-24), a year-long artist residency at the Everson Museum in Syracuse, NY on time, timekeeping, and upending of linear time with community partners. Launching June 6, 2024.
When the River Becomes a Cloud / Cuando el río se transforma en nube (2021-Ongoing), a multi-year public artwork produced in collaboration with Prescott School, a PreK-12th Grade public school in rural Prescott, WA.

Nebular Nook Oil, 24 x 16 inches This new painting, from an earlier study, has been accepted to show next month in the Oil Painters of America's annual National Juried Exhibition! In the nebulous dust of deceased giants, new stars are born. Stretching out their new solar winds, these young stars carve out a space for themselves in the dust, just a few million years old. How many human generations is a million years? It would be approximately 40,000 generations, yet homo sapiens has only existed for less than a third of that time, about 12,000 generations.
