Greenwich, England, 1985
Photograph by Bruce Dale
"One hop bridges east and west at Greenwich, England, where a brass strip marks zero longitude. First used by sailors to fix their position, Greenwich mean time was adopted by railroads and, after 1884, worldwide as the standard for time of day. Time is now set not by earth's rotation, but by satellite and atomic clock."
(Text and photograph from "The Enigma of Time," March 1990, National Geographic magazine)

Pamukkale, Turkey, Date Unknown
Photograph by Gordon Gahan
Bathers enjoy terraced pools filled with the hot, mineral-rich waters of Pamukkale, Turkey's "Cotton Castle." The trickling water from the mountain's hot springs is heavy with calcium-carbonate. Over the centuries these waters have carved out large flat basins whose surface is coated with pure white calcium deposits.

Mars, 2000
Photograph by NASA/JPL/Malin Space Science Systems
"An artful view from space reveals a bracelet-like chain of shallow pits lining a trough created by faulting. The collapse zone appears on a flank of the Pavonis Mons volcano. Some 530 yards (475 meters) wide, the depression could have resulted from the underground movement of molten rock."
(Text and photograph from "A Mars Never Dreamed Of," February 2001, National Geographic magazine)

Loango National Park, Gabon, 2004
Photograph by Michael Nichols
A mother and her calf hippopotamus cool off in the "Land of the Surfing Hippos." Loango National Park got that nickname from the resident hippopotamuses' habit of swimming in the ocean and body-surfing to and from feeding grounds.
