News from Lyme Regis, 17 January 1831: 'Miss Anning has again made a discovery of a grand fossil animal ... Geologists are now very numerous: perhaps much more than at any former period'. Then at the height of her fame, #MaryAnning and her discoveries attracted droves of fossil collectors to Lyme.

This Wednesday 👇

Deadline 1 week away!👇

Get those abstracts in!👇

Really looking forward to this 👇

This was an excellent presentation. Well worth watching again, particularly for the fabulous illustrations by @charlottepriddy.bsky.social

What a superb day yesterday. As part of @originalgcg.bsky.social annual seminar, I went walking in the footprints of giants - mainly Iguanadonts. Between Pett Level beach & Fairlight Cove, I observed dinosaur trackways, tail marks, bone beds, fossil wood and ripples ⚒️🪨🦕 @derbyuni.bsky.social

Oh. Wow. This 👇

December 14, 1972, Apollo 17 the last manned mission to the Moon returns to Earth. After collecting 741 individual rock and regolith core samples - totaling 110.5 kilograms - astronaut-geologist Jack Schmitt leaves his geological hammer on the lunar surface 🌙🔨

Yesterday I attended the annual seminar of the Geological Collections Group @originalgcg.bsky.social to learn about putting our collections to work. I presented a poster on @derbyuni.bsky.social collection: emphasis on our unique holistic approach to making our specimens accessible to students.

starting soon!

Scientists feel that the pressure to publish is rising, but that the time and resources they have to do the necessary research are falling, according to a survey of 3,200 researchers go.nature.com/4hNDvuN

It’s #RadonAwarenessWeek. The UK Health Security Agency (UKSHA) recommends that radon levels should be reduced in homes where the annual averages is at or above 200 becquerels per cubic metre.

Submission is open for our session 'Carbonates - archives of time, space and change' at the the EGU General Assembly (3-8 May 2026) Join Karolina Bienko, Arnaud Gallois and I for some lively discussions about all things carbonate! Submit here: meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU26/abstra...

Had a lovely day in Buxton with @derbyuni.bsky.social Water Resources students visiting Nestlé Buxton Water and sampling water from Hogshaw Brook; the UofD borehole and St Anne’s Well. @derbyuniearth.bsky.social

30 October 1846: a newspaper reported that a fund had been set up by the geologists at that year's @britsciassoc.bsky.social meeting in Southampton to raise money for ailing fossil dealer #MaryAnning, 'an old woman' (she was 47), following a fire at her home in Lyme Regis.

Fabulous to see our @EarthSciences students out there sampling the delights of @Derbyshire
