POPSFamily's Garden Swallowed Up By Giant 20ft Hole 'The hole was originally just the size of my body but since then it's got bigger and bigger.' Local historian Jane Lilly, who found a brick archway in the cavern, said it was likely the driveway had subsided into a water storage tank. 'Houses built along that road date back to the early 1860s, which comes only a few years after mains water was laid in 1856. 'But for most people there was a transition period and the archway seems to be good evidence of a traditional brick-lined storage tank for rainwater. 'The hole could also have been caused by a cellar, but that's less likely because you'd expect one to be directly underneath the house.' Experts plan to underpin the foundations of the Hides' home and fill the 20ft by 20ft hole with concrete.

POPSMercury as Revealed by MESSENGER Once again, the Astronomy Picture of the Day brings us current events from way out there to let us know there's more going on than the petty events on our puny planet.

POPSOil Plummet Stretches to $30 (20%!) except to the extent that they have served as catalysts for the burst, which is now of its own accord exhaling those long built up expectations of indefinite price increases. To stretch the bubble metaphor a little further, one or all of these events has served as the pin prick, which plays a crucial role in the bubble lifecycle; but it's the subsequent explosive exhalation of all the hot air inside (in this metaphor, the role of the hot air is played by the irrational expectations of endless price increases) that has yielded the cascading prices we've seen (and can hope to continue to see) over the last three weeks.

POPSMoon Secrets Revealed : John Lear & Richard Hoagland
Coast to Coast AM Interview with George Noory http://www.thelivingmoon.com/43ancients/04images/Moon7/Full_Moon/Moon_Mosaic_80_lrg.png Former aviation pilot John Lear returned for a discussion about photographic evidence for cities and mining operations on the moon. He said that mining operations for such substances as helium-3 have been going on for years, and that antigravity ships, secretly launched from Antarctica, arrive at the moon in only one hour's time. He cited a poster known as "sleeper" (blog) at the abovetopsecret.com forum as one of the sources for his information. Lear also argued that the moon was towed into its current orbit by a huge electromagnetic vehicle, and that vehicle can be seen in a photo taken of the moon crater Tsiolkovsky. He also believes that the moon contains a breathable atmosphere, as evidenced by photos showing smoke or vapor coming from the surface. Joining the conversation during the third hour, Richard C. Hoagland concurred with Lear t

POPSOrganic Cemetery A color-enhanced image of the delta in Jezero Crater, which once held a lake. Researchers led by CRISM team member and Brown graduate student Bethany Ehlmann report that ancient rivers ferried clay-like minerals (shown in green) into the lake, forming the delta. Clays tend to trap and preserve organic matter, making the delta a good place to look for signs of ancient life.

POPSTunguska: 100 years of wondering 30th Jun was the hundredth anniversary of the Tunguska explosion. They think the answer might lie at the bottom of Lake Chelo. The rule of thumb is that a 100 metre asteroid equals a 100 mTon hydrogen bomb.
