It's Fossil Friday! Behold the dazzling colors of an iridescent ammonite (Placenticeras intercalare). A relative of today’s squids, this ammonite lived some 80 million years ago near what is now Alberta, Canada. This fossil’s spectacular coloration is the result of millions of years of high temperatures and pressures. As these forces acted on nacre in this ammonite’s shell, it was transformed into a gemstone known as an ammolite. Along with amber and pearl, ammolite is one of only a handful of gems made by living organisms. You can spot this rare specimen in the Louis V. Gerstner, Jr. Collections Core in the Museum’s Gilder Center.

updated draft map for a central Alabama cave @cerussa

this is made in inkscape! so all the assets you see are, albeit poorly, hand drawn on the computer and are being transcribed from hand drawn sketches.

Here you can see portions of the sketch. Not all the sketching was done by me so interpreting them can be interesting at times!

I'm trying to balance artistry with navigabilty here, not that this cave is hard to navigate, and I think it's decent to far.

For anyone interested in a more detailed explanation/guide of the process this site has detailed guides on everything from data management to final products. https://share.google/QAea0ivReHD7CXMP7

Omgggggg these sketches are amazing! I struggle fitting sketches of plots of land, so this is really impressive, especially since it's subsurface.
