An @ERC_Research grant on early Earth, the detection of first fossils and biomorphs, biomimetic mineral selforganized structures and the origin of life
Our planet is 4.560 million years old and was, for a very long time, lifeless. At PROMETHEUS we investigate the role that silica biomorphs and other self-organized mineral structures may have played as catalyzers of prebiotic chemistry: https://t.co/rgGDAG3b9X #EUfunded#ERCgrant
Los investigadores del proyecto ERC Prometheus han elaborado un estupendo comic, con el objetivo de que niños y mayores aprendan algo sobre viajes de campo, geologia, minerales, cristales, como se hace ciencia y la vida misma.

"2019 will be remembered as the year humanity captured the first-ever image of a black hole." Scientists supported by the 🇪🇺EU and the ERC contributed to the epic #RealBlackHole discovery. #ScienceIsWonderful https://t.co/TXMVWDzS1U
El secreto del #origendelavida se esconde en lagos salados, en el interior de depresiones con altas tasas de evaporación que resultan en soluciones salinas y alcalinas. Por eso se los conoce como lagos alcalinos o lagos de soda
