WATER OLDER THAN THE SUN

I never expected to see such a statement. In fact, have never really thought too much about the age of water. Would not it be great if we could get this water and bottle it? What would trend seekers pay for such a beverage? And there was other news from the past. The relatively advanced method of flaking rocks to make tools was thought to have originated in Africa and then was exported. Now it seems that it also began in Eurasia. Will this discovery affect global warming No, but there is some good news concerning colony collapse disorder. Honey bees are more difficult to keep healthy but they are not going to disappear. That makes me feel better and I can probably do without a bottle of ancient water.

A lot going on in space. There was the amazing and inexpensive Indian Mar’s orbiter. And to be successful in the first attempt. Am waiting for the Rosetta space probe’s attempt to place an instrument package on the surface of a comet. And the Curiosity is drilling on the surface of Mars. Here on Earth learned that wind storms blowing sand from Africa to Brazil help fertilize the Amazon forest. It seems that particles of long dead fish contain phosphorous. Wow! I wonder what was in those sand storms that swept across the plains of eastern New Mexico contained? Maybe it shaped my way of thinking. Anyway have a wonderful October.
