The sources of the data that the Bardic Historians used when writing about these heroes came from documents‚ such as letters‚ diaries‚ and memoirs‚ rather than scientific or statistical data from the geology or biology of the time. One such historian was George Bancroft‚ who wrote about Columbus‚ on his discovery of the New World. He wrote how Columbus had discovered two new continents‚ which were populated by “savages‚” with some signs of early civilization

Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. The scientific missions have focused on whether Mars once harbored flowing water. Specifically‚ the science studies Martian geology to determine how the rocks and soils formed. Based on how they form on Earth‚ many Martian discoveries appear to have followed a similar path‚ such as a long exposure to water or geology formed by intense heat and water. NASA has engaged in a few popular public relations efforts with the rover missions.i One has been to invite students

The Volcanic Eruption of Nevado Del Ruiz Nevado Del Ruiz located in Central Colombia‚ is a broad‚ glacier covered volcano. A relatively small eruption caused a devastating mud flow that killed almost 25‚000 people in the town of Armero‚ marking one of the worst volcanic disasters in history. Sadly‚ this tragedy could have been easily avoided if clear warnings by volcanologists had been taken seriously. On November 13‚ 1985‚ Nevado Del Ruiz erupted and created a lahar.

detour many scientists from their true work was Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution. Without ability in mathematics‚ Darwin lacked the chief tool of the great scientists. Darwin took with him a copy of principles of geology by Charles Lyell‚ who is regarded as the father of modern geology. From this book Darwin learned Lyell’s false principle of uniformity‚ the idea that the present is
