⛰️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿Last week, our second-year Geology students returned from a field trip in Kinlochleven and the Glencoe Caldera, where they spent most of their time recording complex multiphase deformations.

Congrats to @ESEImperial UGs for their hard work on the #Scotland #Highlands fieldtrip 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (and thanks for having me!) Finished by visiting the famous Glencoe caldera (collapsed volcano) 🌋 Close to Hagrid's Hut (📽️location), magmas contain chunks of older, darker rocks🧙‍♂️

Days 8-10 #Scotland The stunning scenery of the #Highlands reveals the power of water, where glaciers and rivers have carved out the mountains and valleys over the last million years. #fieldwork #geology

Days 5-7 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #Scotland #Highlands Enjoying some stunning scenery as @ESEImperial UGs fill in their maps. #geology 🚨 "Cross-beds" are the dark squiggly lines above Colin, formed as grains roll down the side of a dune, and can tell us if the rocks are upside-down 🔃🪨

Days 3 & 4 #Scotland #Highlands 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @ESEImperial students have been looking at quartzite and schist - baked and compressed rocks made of sand and mud. While the students took to the slopes to find some rocks, Colin hitched a ride in the backpack. #fieldwork #geology

Great to be back in #Scotland #Highlands with @ESEImperial UGs. Days 1 & 2 We've been exploring multiple phases of deformation - what happens when you fold a fold? 🤔 Colin the dinosaur enjoyed sitting on a big blob of ancient magma, called an "intrusion". #geology #fieldwork

Colin the dino enjoyed getting back out in the field, complete with his brand new bobble hat. Here, he's sitting on a #rock made of tiny organisms that settled at the bottom of the sea floor and were compressed together to form...chalk! #fieldwork #geology #STEM

We've confirmed 5,569 planets beyond our solar system so far. Some may have jewels blowing in their winds, others could have glass. We've detected burning clouds of black atmosphere and clouds made of quartz. Each is a marvel. go.nasa.gov/3Uaz0R0
