Earth 443 million years ago - Artist View - Silurian Earth - This is how the Earth may have appeared 443 million years ago during the Silurian period. The northern most continent is what would become today's Siberia and to the west of that is the Panthalassic Ocean. South of the equator to the east is the early - Palaeozoic continent of Baltica later to form part of Eurasia, while to the east is the continent of Laurentia later to become the core of North America. Further south is the Rheic Ocean and to the west the Iapetus Ocean

E.DEORBIT: a satellite to clean space - E.Deorbit grabbing debris - An artist's view of the e.deorbit satellite (left) catching a satellite with a robotic arm to take it to consume itself in the Earth's atmosphere. e.Deorbit is a European mission project that if approved in 2019 will start in 2024. This satellite will be the first to clean up space debris. He would remove the larger objects with his arm or a net, before discharging them into the atmosphere, or they would be destroyed. ESA's proposed e.Deorbit mission, shown left, using a robotic arm to catch a derelict satellite - the baseline capture method for what would be the world's first active space debris removal mission, in 2024. The mission would first rendezvous with a large, drifting ESA satellite, then capture and secure it safely ahead of steering the combination down for a controlled burn-up in the atmosphere. As well as the baselined robot arm, additional capture technologies are being investigated, including a net and

Colorful Pentaceratops - The Pentaceratops lived 75 million years ago in the southwestern United States. Herbivore, it was 8 meters long and weighed 6 tons. The usefulness of his collar is not clearly defined. A protective shield against predators is a possibility, but relatively fragile, it is likely that it was used as an attribute of visual intimidation to rivals or to attract opposing sex. Although no pigment of colour has been preserved in the fossil remains, it is not unreasonable to imagine that these collars may have been very coloured. A six ton, 27 foot long Pentaceratops wonders a Cretaceous forest 75 million years ago in what is today the southwestern United States. Like the better known Triceratops, Pentaceratops was a Ceratopsid, a large four-legged plant-eating dinosaur characterized by beaks, rows of shearing teeth in the back of the jaw, and elaborate horns and frills.

A four foot long Arthropleura crawls amidst seed ferns from the genus Neuropteris in a Carboniferous forest 310 million years ago in what is today Scotland. Growing up to 8 feet long and 18 inches wide, Arthropleura was the largest known terrestrial arthropod of all time. A combination of a higher percentage of atmospheric oxygen and relatively few terrestrial predators may have enabled Arthropleura to evolve to such an enormous size. Despite its fierce appearance, Arthropleura is currently believed to have been a vegetarian. In the shadows on the upper right are “” roachoids,””” primitive ancestors of modern cockroaches

Deinotherium - Deinotherium appeared in the middle Miocene and the genus fades in the lower Pleistocene. It probably looked like modern elephants, except that its trunk was shorter, its defenses were attached to the lower jaw (not to the skull), and they pointed downwards. Deinotherium is the third largest known terrestrial mammal ever; only Baluchitherium grangeri and Mammuthus sungari were larger. Males were generally 3.5 to 4.5 m tall to the shoulders, although some large specimens were able to measure up to 5m. Their weight was estimated to be between 5 and 10 tonnes and above 14 tonnes for the larger males. Deinotherium crosses the rolling plains of what is today Europe. A prehistoric relative of modern elephants, Deinotherium was larger and had a shorter trunk and downward-curving tusks attached to its lower jaw. Deinotherium is the third largest land mammal known to have existed; only Paraceratherium and some mammoths were larger. Deinotherium likely behaved like modern elephant

Pterosaurs - Pterosaurs amidst Bjuvia - A Pterosaur approaches an appetizing carcass 228 million years ago. A pterosaur alights near the bank of a shallow pond, attracted by the prospect of a tasty dinner of carrion. 228 million years ago the Earth's open and sunny plains were home to a type of cycad known as Bjuvia simplex. Bjuvia, a cone-bearing seed plant, resembled modern palms, however they were more closely related to pines. Adult Bjuvia grew to a height of 25 feet and became extinct about 210 million years ago during the late Triassic period. Also during this time the skies were home to a flying variety of reptiles known as pterosaurs. While pterosaurs' reptilian origins appear clear, they were not related to birds, and it isn't certain whether they were even related to dinosaurs. There were many varieties of pterosaur during their reign of 160 million years, becoming extinct, along with most of the dinosaurs, about 65 million years ago

Permanent station between the Earth and the Moon - Artist view - Lunar cycler at apogee - Artist view - Lunar Cycler is a space station placed in orbit between the Earth and the Moon whose trajectory would alternate between the Moon and the Earth. Once positioned in orbit, this gravitational assistance vessel would use very little fuel. This project would make a permanent link between the two stars. A lunar cycler has reached its furthest orbital point from the Earth - the apogee - and is rounding the far side of the Moon to begin its fall back towards Earth. At apogee the lunar cycler is about 300 thousand miles from the Earth and 50 thousand miles beyond the orbit of the Moon (further from Earth than any human has ventured yet). If frequent manned trips to the Moon become a reality, the earlier “” throw-away”” technologies of the Apollo lunar missions will be impractical for the long term.

Moeritherium - Moeritherium is a prehistoric mammal connected to the elephant and, further away, to the manatee and dugong. He lived in Eocene 35 million years ago. The Moeritherium were animals similar to the pig, and resembling tapirs. They were smaller than modern elephants, with only 70 centimetres at withers and about 3 m long. It is believed that they liked to live in marshes and rivers, occupying the ecological niche now occupied by a hippo. The shape of his teeth suggests that they were feeding on tender aquatic vegetation. Proboscideans of the genus Moeritherium wallow in a swamp 36 million years ago in what is today North Africa. Resembling modern tapirs or pygmy hippopotamuses, Moeritherium is in fact related to elephants. They stood only about 2.5 feet at the shoulder and were about 10 feet long. Dwelling in swamps and rivers and subsisting on soft vegetation, it is believed Moeritherium occupied an ecological niche subsequently filled by modern hippopotamuses

Dimorphodon (Dimorphodon macronyx) is a pterosaur belonging to the family dimorphodontidae and living in the lower Jurassic, between 200 and 180 million years. He had a beak like a puffin. The dimorphodon was about 1 metre long, with a wingspan of 1.4 metres. Winged Dimorphodon pluck fish from the Early-Jurassic Tethys Ocean 195 million years ago in what it is today England. While Dimorphodon's coloration is unknown, here the adult males have been given colorful heads inspired by modern day puffins and toucans. Dimorphodon was a medium-sized pterosaur (flying reptile) with a wingspan of about four feet and a large head and puffin-like “” beak.”” Its long front teeth suggest that it was built for plucking fish from near the surface of the water. Dimorphodon also had a long tail, the end of which is speculated to have sported a soft tissue vane for enhanced stability during flight

He would recapture the larger objects with his articulated arm or a net, before discharging them into the atmosphere, or they would be destroyed. ESA's proposed e.Deorbit mission, shown left, using a net to catch a derelict satellite - the baseline capture method for what would be the world's first active space debris removal mission, in 2024. The mission would first rendezvous with a large, drifting ESA satellite, then capture and secure it safely ahead of steering the combination down for a controlled burn-up in the atmosphere. As well as the baselined robot arm, additional capture technologies are being investigated, including a net and harpon. In
