![Part of a fossilized skeleton of a plesiosaur. The slightly lustrous quality of the 'bones' shows that they have been opalized - the original bone material replaced with opal (hydrous silicon oxide) to form the permanent fossil. The fossil is about 120 million years old, and was found in Australia. The plesiosaur was a marine carnivorous dinosaur that thrived in the mid to late Cretaceous Period. Photographed at a duty-free shop in Sydney, Australia. [1989].](https://www.menzelphoto.com/img-get2/I0000XMinXgDB2Vg/fill=/fit=180x180/I0000XMinXgDB2Vg.jpg)
![Les Price, opal miner, above mineshaft with dinosaur footprints at Lightning Ridge, Australia. Dinosaur footprints are preserved when the damp surface material (clay or sand) is baked for a long period by the Sun, as at the beginning of a drought. When the overlying water eventually returns, it carries sediments which fill in the footprints, but which are of a different composition to the underlying rock. Here, the excavation of the mine has removed this lower layer (the original 'surface'), leaving the cast of the footprint visible, although it is debatable whether the miner's tools shaped the rock into the shape of a footprint.

![Dubious dinosaur footprint. Les Price, an opal mineworker examines the cast of a dinosaur footprint in the roof of an opal mine, which he excavated.

When the overlying water eventually returns, it carries sediments which fill in the footprints, but which are of a different composition to the underlying rock. Here, the excavation of the mine has removed this lower layer (the original 'surface'), leaving the cast of the footprint visible, although it is debatable whether the miner's tools shaped the rock into the shape of a footprint.

![Mountain View, California.Vials of chemicals known as P.A.H. (Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons) luminesce in ultraviolet light. These molecules, naturally occuring throughout the depths of space, are believed by these and and other researchers to be possible origins of life on earth. P.A.H.s have been found to become chemically modified when surrounded by ice and exposed to ultraviolet radiation -- a situation likely to occur in space.iOnce molecularly altered, the modified P.A.H.s closely resemble known organic molicules that are found in abundance on earth. Thus P.A.H.s may be found to be the first stage in a chain of molecules that led to life on earth. Researchers at NASA/Ames are simulating the conditions in space in order to study these alterations in the molecular structure of P.A.H.s. They also track P.A.H.s as they travel through interstellar space towards developing solar systems where they may become transformed into the seeds of life, all to hypothesize about the origins of life on earth..[1999]](https://www.menzelphoto.com/img-get2/I0000Xise9yQw_IU/fill=/fit=180x180/I0000Xise9yQw_IU.jpg)
