Great visit to AGICO Ltd. last week in Brno! We had the chance to see and test their latest paleomagnetic instrumentation, including the new PUMA Pulse Magnetizer and LDA-6 AF Demagnetizer. Thanks to the AGICO team for the warm welcome and discussions!

Earthset.

The Artemis II crew captured this view of an Earthset on April 6, 2026, as they flew around the Moon. The image is reminiscent of the iconic Earthrise image taken by astronaut Bill Anders 58 years earlier as the Apollo 8 crew flew around the Moon.

Our team hosted an archaeomagnetic dating workshop this week 🧲🧭
We were delighted to have Partick Arneitz and Gaelle Segue-Passama from GeoSphere Austria giving guest lectures.✏️
Thank you all for the fruitful exchange and collaboration!

We collected paleomagnetic samples from Jama Vilenica Cave – first touristic cave in the world (since 1633) – together with colleagues from Karst Research Institute in Slovenia (ZRC SAZU) to understand timing of tectonic regimes in the karst system.
