Global geological map of Venus
The surface area of Venus ( 460 10 km) is 90% of that of the Earth. Using Magellan radar image and altimetry data, supplemented by Venera-15/16 radar images, we compiled a global geologic map of Venus at a scale of 1:10 M. We outline the history of geological mapping of the Earth and planets to illustrate the importance of utilizing the dual stratigraphic classification approach to geological m...

On an example of crisis of overpopulated human species in future, it is described how to develop a theory of everything, how to give more sense to amateur science, and how reactions of professional science rega...
متن کاملGeological Interpretation Makes Earth Models Easier to Build
Geological modelers commonly produce 3D Earth Model representations [2],[3],[6], which are not only used for 3D visualization but also for geophysics (Time2depth migration), reservoir characterization, drilling well path optimization and reservoir engineering. These models should be topologically consistent with respect to a definite interpretation of the geology. Faults and erosive surfaces mu...
متن کاملThe Historical Development of the Old-Earth Geological Timescale
This chapter will summarize the historical development of geology and in particular the development of the modern uniformitarian view of the geological record and the millions-of-years time-scale. The important proponents of old-earth thinking (including Werner, Smith, Hutton, Cuvier, and Lyell) along with some of the opponents of this view as it was developing (the scriptural geologists) will ...
