Human Legacy And The Preservation Of Knowledge
The preservation of digital information is a problem that humans have tried to combat ever since the internet’s inception. There’s the Internet Archive, IPFS (Inter Planetary File System), and other various attempts to figure out how to preserve what we do, but the very concept of preservation is itself a difficult task. How do we humans ensure that our knowledge, or at least our ways of thinking about the world, is passed on to future generations, and can that knowledge last in […]https://johnbronze.wordpress.com/2026/07/13/human-legacy-and-the-preservation-of-knowledge/

Till a’ the seas gang dry, my dear,
And the rocks melt wi’ the sun…James Hutton met Robert Burns in 1787. Later that year, Burns chose to visit some of the sites discussed in Hutton’s THEORY OF THE EARTH. Is there an echo of Hutton’s “deep time” – oceans evaporating, rocks melting – to be heard in Burns’s “A Red, Red Rose” (pub. 1794)?

James Hutton (1726–1797), father of modern geology, was born #OTD, 14 June (NS; 3 June OS). One of the first European proponents of “deep time”, the conclusion of his 1788 paper “Theory of the Earth” has been called one of the most lyrical sentences in all of science:
The result, therefore, of our present enquiry is, that we find no vestige of a beginning,—no prospect of an end.

"All told, the graveyard extends 745 miles (1,200 kilometers) along the sea floor. The researchers found at least five active whale falls...also documented 476 fossilized whales, and of the 25 collected samples that could be dated, the most ancient was about 5.3 million years old. That suggests that whales have fostered this unique deep-sea ecosystem for at least that long." https://gizmodo.com/scientists-have-just-discovered-a-5-million-year-old-whale-necropolis-in-the-deep-sea-2000769050 re: #DeepTime #Lagerstätten
