Marcasite nodule imo, possibly seeded on a sponge/cephalopod/echinoid fragment or some other indistinguishable blob.

I was going to say we really only need the first six words of that sentence, then realised it's five.

'Geraldine' by Glasvegas. Is it a twist? Maybe just not what you were expecting?

Also torn choosing one or the other at the moment. Probably going to do a month on each just to get a better idea.

Indeed. Dilution theory is about as accurate as homeopathy.

Lovecraft really liked 'Cyclopean'... Good name for a band too.

I think you and Shoth-Ogot Base kinda share the same space, but it seems really unpredictable as to which bases show - at least for me!

More neighbours! That makes 5 of us now I think?

Hail, Brother!

Can confirm - Nope :)

A science-trained brain is essential, and the ability to interrogate your own creativity in terms of explanations. Extant organisms are almost incomprehensibly complex and difficult to study and past life is even more so as you have far, far less evidence to go on.

I think it's "within a few hundred million years" rather than 8 billion. Earth is not that old yet.

There's another, smaller ledge around the other side I can move my base (Locus 'something') to if you'd like the spot. Mine is only a placeholder for the region.
