Welcome to #TrilobiteTuesday. Pictured is a 2.5-inch (6.4-centimeter)-long Olenellus fowleri from the Lower Cambrian of Nevada. What distinguishes this specimen from many others? It was its underside, rather than the more commonly seen dorsal side, that was preserved.

https://t.co/0eFXfCLX5e The 5th of April 1842 is generally considered the foundational date of the New Brunswick Museum. That is the day that Dr. Abraham Gesner opened Gesner’s Museum of Natural History to the public….but, like many narratives... #stonehammerrocks #discoversj

Trinity Church is one of the many buildings Uptown made of sandstone, marble, and granite. It was rebuilt between 1877 and 1881 after two fifths of the City of Saint John was destroyed by the Great Fire in 1877⚒️
