The early success of the trust has now inspired Arbroath man Hunor Deak to create a group focused on the geological treasures on the area’s doorstep — among them the Angus town’s distinctive red sandstone cliffs. New society will align with aims of Scottish Geology Trust. Hunor, 23, said: “If there was one place in the world you could go to understand how the planet works, why climate changes, why life evolved — Scotland would be it. “The diversity of geology in Scotland has underpinned some of the greatest discoveries about how the world works.” He said understanding of the earth was essential if we want to have a planet we can still live on in the future and the importance of the trust had been underlined by the support for the crowdfunder from multiple universities and international s

There are many ways to go back in time, You just need a telescope, look up in the sky, the starlight of today was emitted 1000s of years ago! But there is only one way to travel back in time, and travel the world as well, the Ores- Petrological microscope. The Petrological microscope is a strange creature, Made of multiple stages, Pulls light sources, and a multitude of lenses, The stage can be rotated around, Scattering spectra in all directions.
