Why are the red rocks of Sedona so red?

If you’ve ever visited Sedona Arizona’s famous red rocks or seen the Grand Canyon, or the Vermillion Cliffs or the astonishingly rainbow-colored hills of China’s Zhangye National Geopark, you likely noticed they have one thing in common: red-colored rocks.

How did these rocks get so red? The answer involves iron, which bonds with other elements to form minerals famous for their red, rusty hue.

To start at the beginning, the iron on Earth came from ancient supernova events, the collapse of large stars that ran out of energy and “died.” After these stars collapsed (due to extreme gravity at their centers), they released a vast amount of new energy, which fused together elements, creating heavier elements, including iron (Fe).

After the force from such a collapse got too immense, the collapsing star exploded outward, sending the elements into space, said Jessica Kapp, a senior lecturer and associate department head of the geosciences department at the University of Arizona. [Photo Timeline: How the Earth Formed]

“When Earth first formed, it grabbed up a bunch of these elements from the space around it, including iron,” Kapp told Live Science in an email.

In Earth’s early history, during the Archean era (4 billion to 2.5 billion years ago), there was little oxygen in the atmosphere. Without oxygen, iron can dissolve in water, and so Earth’s early Archean oceans carried large amounts of dissolved iron, said Terry Engelder, a professor of geosciences at Pennsylvania State University.

However, single-celled organisms began producing oxygen through photosynthesis — a process that uses sunlight to power a reaction between water and carbon dioxide, leading to the creation of carbohydrates and oxygen.

That oxygen got into the oceans and bonded with the iron, leading to the creation of iron-oxide minerals, such as hematite (Fe2O3), which is often red in color, and magnetite (Fe3O4).

“An oxidation reaction you might be familiar with is rusting — when metal reacts with the oxygen in the air and becomes rust,” Kapp said. “In rocks, it is little grains of minerals like hematite and magnetite that have iron in them. Those minerals experience oxidation and become rust, turning the rocks red.”

The creation of these minerals led to the formation of the banded iron formations, the most important iron deposits in the world, Engelder said. The formations are “banded” because they contain layers of hematite between layers of silica, which were laid down as sedimentary rock layers during the during the late Archean to mid-Proterozoic (an era lasting from 2.5 billion to 541 million years ago), according to a 2016 study in the journal Geoscience Frontiers.

For instance, banded iron formations appear in Carajas, Brazil; Lake Superior, Canada; Hamersley Basin, Western Australia; regions in northern China; and the Mesabi Iron Range in Minnesota.

In the case of the Vermilion Cliffs in Arizona, the red color comes from iron-rich minerals that are interspersed with the sedimentary rock at that site.

“Red sandstones are very common in the western United States,” Kapp said. “[They] can be found in places like Sedona, Arizona, and in the Mojave Desert of California at Red Rock Canyon State Park.”

Other red rock formations that contain oxidized iron minerals include the Chugwater Formation in Wyoming, Montana and Colorado and the Redwall Limestone cliff of the Grand Canyon, which was stained red by the iron-oxide minerals leaching out from the layers above it.

Curiosity lands on Mars, Martian Triangle in the sky, Astronomy Astrology from Tara Greene

Sunday August 5  at 10:31 pm California time the 1 ton Mars rover Curiosity Lands safely on Mars.

Costing 2 Billion and taking over 8 years of research, the explorer robot started streaming dusty live photos from Mars. The maneuvers necessary for Curiosity’s landing are phenomenal, in a few minutes the spacecraft changes shape like a toy Transformer six times, slowing from 13,000 mph to 1.7 mph while using 76 pyrotechnic devices, ropes, knives and the largest supersonic parachute ever built.

Mars varies in its distance from earth but this time was  350 million miles away. It takes 14 minutes for sound to travel to the vehicle from earth so Curiosity had to land itself on auto pilot. This is  a big deal as most Mars exploration missions have ended in failure. It took MARS energized curiosity to do this mission. The first one of its kind.

REAL MARTIAN TRIANGLE  visible in the Sky

Mars Spica Saturn

synchronicity is with us as Sunday evening Mars also put on a special showing as it forms what is known as a MARTIAN TRIANGLE in the sky, aligning with Saturn and the bright blue giant Star SPICA in the constellation of VIRGO.  Mars Saturn and Spica form an equilateral triangle. Spica, the main star in the constellation of VIRGO the virgin is a massive Binary Star on the other side of our galactic spiral arm. Virgo is the largest constellation in the sky. But they all shine with the same magnitude.

A Martian Trinagle sounds like a Male Pubic Triangle to me, something kinda sexy, don’t you think?

It’s definitely a RED LETTER Day.

MARTIAL TIMES

Is this a sign of  Martial law coming? 

IN ASTROLOGY TERMS

Curiosity Mars landing NASA

the MOON is in the Sign of ARIES in western Tropical Astrology and that’s the 1st sign always about new beginnings. Aries is ruled by the RED planet. The Chart for the exact landing of curiosity shows a 14 degrees ARIES Ascendant, ruled by Mars which is sitting hovering on the Descendant opposite at 19 degrees of LIBRA fairly close to Saturn the reality planet at 24 degrees.

The Mars Saturn combo is a hard one but in this case really depicts Mars-action, desire, men and Saturn-discipline,reality working together. It was 8 years of work and  that’s Saturn testing to get Curiosity safely landed on Mars.

The chart shows Uranus the hHi-tech, freedom planet at 8 degrees Retrograde of Aries near to the Ascendant squaring Pluto at 7 degrees Retro of Capricorn at the top of the chart. Yes  U.S. Inventiveness puts them in a power position  in the world’s eyes.

Venus at 28 degree of Gemini is conjunct the NORTH STAR POLARIS and directly opposite the Galactic Center in Sagittarius.

Venus forms a Grand Trine with Neptune at 2 degrees of PISCES- space-and Saturn. Jupiter in Gemini is also Trine to Mars- Jupiter rules Sagittarius expansion, luck to Mars itself.

The North Node at 2 degrees of Sagittarius is squaring Neptune. THE NORTH NODE has been in SAGITTARIUS for the last 2. 5 years is all about expanding horizons, travel, space, adventure, the centre of our Galaxy is in Sagittarius both Tropical and Sidereal. This mission represents a literal dream come true.

Mars and the Olympics

Mars rules men in Astrology. And everything to do with the Sign of ARIES, being FIRST. And Yes MARS also figures prominently in most athlete’s charts. Record Olympic GOLD medal champion is Michael PHELPS,  a Cancer Sun with yes you guessed in MARS 6 degrees away from his Sun at 14 degrees, right on the U.S. Sun and Fixed Star Sirius. I will write about what makes Michael’s astrology chart so outstanding in the next article or so.  Mars also rules the sign of SCORPIO traditionally with modern co-ruler PLUTO. Mars rules fire and everything related to it, energy, life force, initiating,action, libido, passion, power, control, machismo, strength, force, war, anger, fighting martial, the army, death, danger, adventure, excitation, you get the picture.

“Gort! Klaatu barada nikto.” visions from psychic Tara Greene-coming to you soon…

Dec 3 2007 THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL? COMING SOON-virtually virtual SCI REALITY

I am cleaning my kitchen counter this a.m. As much as I dislike housework, it’s one of the best times for spontaneous intuitive messages to come through. You know like the Zen saying “Chop wood, fetch water.” O.K. So. the words “Klaatu Barada Nikto” started repeating in my head. I MUST TELL YOU THAT i DON’T READ NEWSPAPERS OR WATCH THE NEWS. These are the famous cinematic words from The Day The Earth Stood Still a 1951 Sci Fi classic movie-read a review from Rotten Tomatoes about it.
“Gort! Klaatu barada nikto.”

Reviewed by Dennis Schwartz

This is a well crafted sci-fi film from the 1950s, that became a cult favorite and helped generate interest in the sci-fi film as a popular genre. It had a well-intentioned liberal message in the face of the time’s McCarthy witch hunts, it only lacked an edge to its straightforward rational call for world peace and an end to the nuclear arms race.

The film will always be remembered for Patricia Neil saving the world by saying to the eight-foot metallic robot who is about to destroy the world because his master was shot by the U.S. Army, “Gort! Klaatu barada nikto.”

Michael Rennie is Klaatu, the sleekly tailored alien, dressed in a silver suit to match the color of the flying saucer, who has come from outer space to save the world from its petty strifes by delivering a pacifist message. Rennie preaches that the world is now a more dangerous place because of the Atomic-bomb and its potential to blow up the world, as Rennie is made into a refined Christ-like figure who has come 250 million miles to tell the world leaders and the renown scientists that if they can’t settle their differences on this planet his world has authorized the robots they created to act as world policemen to destroy those who can’t live in peace.

This intelligent and humanitarian film plays like a Christian allegory. Klaatu even uses the alias Mr. Carpenter, an obvious reference to Christ.

The film opens with a flying saucer landing in Washington, D.C. and Klaatu stepping outside with an offering of peace and as he reaches into his spacesuit for a gift for the President, he is shot in the shoulder by an antsy soldier. Meanwhile Gort does his thing by opening up the visor on his helmet and shooting cosmic rays at the Army tanks and bazookas, completely disintegrating them. The Defense Department didn’t like the film’s message so they failed to cooperate in the filming; but, the Washington National Guard gave its approval, so all the troops and equipment came from them.

Klaatu recovers from the gunshot in Walter Reed Hospital after the bullet is removed and by self-healing he miraculously closes the wound which startles the doctors, who realize how backward their technology is compared to the spaceman’s. When security locks him in his hospital room he easily escapes and as a fugitive ends up boarding at the wholesome Benson family’s house, living incognito. Patricia Neal is the widow Helen Benson, Billy Gray is her young son Bobby. The kid bonds with the kind-hearted alien and takes him on a tour of Washington, where they go to Arlington National Cemetery and the Lincoln Memorial and then the kid takes him to meet the smartest man in the world, Dr. Barnhardt (Jaffe). But the scientist is not home so Klaatu breaks into his home and corrects a mathematical problem the scientist is working on, and leaves a note requesting that the Einstein-like scientist meet him.

Klaatu’s request for a world meeting has already been turned down by the world leaders as being impractical. But Klaatu tells Barnhardt, that he will show the world that he means business about how important this meeting is. As a demonstration of alien power the world’s electrical power supply is shut off for a half hour, except for hospitals and airplanes in flight. But the government only becomes more hostile and when Helen’s boyfriend (Hugh Marlowe) betrays him in order to gain personal glory, the alien is shot by the military. That is when Helen, following his instructions, goes to Gort for help. Gort revives the dead alien and before Klaatu goes home to outer space he tells the scientists convened for their meeting, his urgent message of peace for the Earth or else the Earth will be destroyed.

Lock Martin played Gort. He was the 7’7” doorman employed at Grauman’s Chinese Theater who was recruited to play the robot. Bernard Herrmann’s haunting musical score aided in capturing the alien atmosphere of the story. It’s hard to argue with the rational message delivered, I just wished the film took on the politics of the scientists sleeping in the same bed with the government. They are just as much a detriment to world peace as the xenophobic media and the cowardly bunch of world leaders. Robert Wise (West Side Story) should be credited with another great film in his long and distinguished career.
