Dreamer at the End of the...

Gordon Harrison

Dreamer at the End of the Universe tells the epic story of four generations of a Celtic family battling the elements and the animals to scrape a living from a land with no fat and little lean. Ours was a wilderness farm in Central Ontario populated by animals, insects, and rocks. And I loved that place. The early generations killed the animals and fought the land. My generation has come to realize who owns this place. Humans have been tenants for a handful of years, while the true owners are the animals who have their own lives. As Charles Darwin wrote, “There is no fundamental difference between man and animals in their ability to feel pleasure and pain, happiness, and misery.”The farm rested in a cradle of rocks called the “Land Between.” This is a region where two iconic environments collided, the Canadian Shield and the St. Lawrence Lowlands, to create a vast area rich in plants, animals, and people—the best of both ecosystems. Together with My Cousin & Me: And Other Animals plus Wolves: Ryders in the Whirlwind, this book comprises a trilogy, I call The Land. In the beginning, I had no conscious intention of writing a trilogy, but after a while, the people, the bears, the wolves, and the other animals in my stories took on a life of their own, thus demanding more description, time, and care. I was attentive to such pleading, such longing to be remembered, before the time when all this will be forgotten. This enchantment with the land, animals, and people is still fresh in my memory. This happiness is still felt in my heart. And had I the strength and the wisdom, I would write a fourth volume, but all good things end.Postscript:Gordon Harrison is an award-winning author of books on nature, science, and art. When he isn’t writing, or drinking Glenmorangie single malt scotch whiskey, he’s photographing the “endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful” of Ontario. The author has placed 193 of his wildlife photos in this new book.

Metal Detecting - Tips...

Sophie Henner

Metal detecting involves using a metal detector, an electronic device designed to find metal objects nearby. These devices vary in form, from handheld wands to large industrial machines. The main components of a metal detector include the control box, which houses the electronic circuitry, controls, and batteries; the search coil, also known as the antenna, which senses metal objects; the shaft, which connects the search coil to the control box and is often adjustable for comfort; and sometimes a stabilizer to keep the unit steady during use. 
  
The search coil generates an electromagnetic field, and when this field encounters a metal object, it creates a disturbance. The control box processes this disturbance and sends a signal to the user, typically an audible beep or a visual display. Metal detecting is used for various purposes, including treasure hunting, where individuals search for coins, jewelry, relics, and other valuable items lost or buried; archaeology, to locate historical artifacts at dig sites; security, for scanning individuals or luggage for concealed weapons or contraband; and construction, to detect metal pipes or rebar in walls, floors, or underground. It is also a popular hobby for enthusiasts who explore parks, beaches, and other areas for interesting finds.

Astrogeology - Understanding the...

Mike Crawford

Astrogeology is the branch of geology that applies the principles and methods of Earth-based geological sciences to the study of celestial bodies, particularly planets, moons, and asteroids. It combines the exploration of planetary surfaces with an understanding of their internal structure, composition, and the forces that shape them. Astrogeology serves as a key discipline in unraveling the mysteries of the solar system and beyond, providing insights into the processes that govern the formation and evolution of planets and other celestial bodies. 
The significance of astrogeology lies in its ability to broaden our knowledge of the universe and our place within it. By studying the geological features of other planets, moons, and small bodies, scientists can draw comparisons to Earth, shedding light on both the uniqueness and the commonalities of planets throughout the solar system. Understanding the geology of celestial bodies is crucial not only for scientific curiosity but also for practical purposes such as space exploration, resource mining, and the potential for human colonization of other worlds. 
Throughout history, humanity has been intrigued by the heavens, with many early civilizations interpreting celestial phenomena through myth and observation. As space exploration advanced, the quest to understand the geology of other planets became central to unraveling the history of the solar system. The first space missions to the Moon, such as NASA's Apollo program, provided tangible geological data from an extraterrestrial body, leading to the realization that planetary bodies undergo similar geological processes to those observed on Earth, though often at a different scale or in altered environments. The study of these processes has since been expanded to other planets, including Mars, Venus, and the outer giants like Jupiter and Saturn.
