Already, data from the team’s first field deployment is helping scientists understand the interactions between biology and geology in these volcanic caves. New science from the project will be presented this week at the Astrobiology Science Conference in Seattle. With proper lighting, the cave’s layers of microbial material and mineral deposits can create a dazzling array of colors. But NASA’s cave rover, CaveR, is equipped to do more than sightsee; it’s outfitted with a host of scientific cameras and imaging tools. These instruments take in small amounts of light reflected off of the cave wall’s surface, allowing scientists to identify chemical components that reveal the telltale signs of life. The rover also uses a laser scanner to map the subterranean caves. Imagine descending into a cave carved out by lava to work alongside a rover about the size of Spirit and Opportunity on Mars, watching the pristine wilderness of a national park transition into tall pillars and stalactites, all in a search for subterranean microbes.

If your pet loves to chew natural bark then the bark platform is a rounded natural platform for hamsters and small animals, even rats. They`ll love to run and climb and you can position them across different levels. As they chew them you can replace them as Scarletts Rat Essentials has low prices, cheap accessories and wheels for small pets so it won't cost you the earth. It’s equally important to offer as much stimulation out of the cage. You can even find rat mazes and puzzles for them to complete during floor time. Why Rats Need to File their Teeth

What are Lava Ledges?

The lava has been more-or-less evenly divided between the eastern and the central flow lobes for most of the past month. There have also been several short-lived channelized 'a'a flows high on Pulama Pali. Much of the volume of new lava has inflated the flows along the nearly flat coastal plain. Flows inflate when new lava moves underneath previously formed lava crusts and lifts the crust upward. There are numerous small surface breakouts of lava inland on the coastal plain along each of the two main flow lobes.

If you want a terrific rat toy but want to go the less pricey route, Kaytee Perfect Chews Rat Toys is a fantastic choice. There are fun colors, hard textures, and flat surfaces. Your rats will have a blast chewing it up. If you decide to use a lava ledge with your pet rat, it is important to take steps to ensure their safety. Here are some tips for using lava ledges safely with your pet rat:

Using Lava Ledges Safely with Rats

That was a typical day for NASA’s Biologic and Resource Analog Investigations in Low Light Environments project, also known as BRAILLE, while on deployment. Operated out of NASA’s Ames Research Center in Silicon Valley, the BRAILLE team is developing the capability to detect life on the walls of volcanic caves from afar. To do this, they’re venturing into North America’s largest network of lava tubes, with the goal of advancing efforts to search for life elsewhere in the universe. A: Lava ledges can be used with other small animals, such as hamsters, gerbils, and guinea pigs, as long as they meet the size and safety requirements of the specific species. Q: Are lava ledges easy to clean?

Social is an understatement. These creatures thrive on connections to others—even outside of their own species. To strengthen their abilities, you must give them proper playtime outside of their cage and inside of it. Rats’ Learning Capability You'll also find Java Multi Branches at Scarletts Rat Essentials. These are most popular with rats, chinchillas and Degu. They love the strong heat treated wood to chew and the smooth texture wipes clean easier than most other woods.The eruption on Kīlauea's east rift zone has continued without interruption since the last brief pause at the end of November. New flows that broke out of the main lava tube at around the 1,600-foot elevation on December 1 have advanced down the central and western parts of the Kamoamoa flow field. The central flow reached the ocean on December 20 near Kamoamoa and has since spread along the coast for nearly a half mile with intermittently active entry points. A small lava ledge of new unstable land has formed. The western flow has covered areas adjacent to the flow field that had not previously been covered by lava. This flow entered the ocean near Lae'apuki on January 7 and stopped on January 25, after sporadic activity.

Rats have four large teeth in the front of their mouths called incisors. Incisors are open-rooted teeth, which means they never stop growing. If your rat doesn’t have something to chew on, they can’t naturally file their teeth. Orbital satellite data suggests that there are a lot of these lava tubes on Mars,” said Blank. “If there is life there, those tubes are a good place to look. And if there was life in Mars’ ancient past, that’s where it’s most likely to be preserved.” The most viscous lavas grow into domes, which are forced upwards (simply by pressure from the underlying magma) through the vent to form a protruding plug or spine. The weight of the growing plug or spine starts a collapse. The spine loses material from its sides and top, and crashes down around the base. Some domes expand outwards as well as upwards by inflation of the hot underlying magma. The Tarawera Complex on the North Island of New Zealand is an excellent example. Lava domes grow relatively slowly, about 1 m - 2 m per day. Submarine lavasRats are highly advanced—showing insane problem-solving skills and heightened empathy. They need attention at all costs, so having playmates of their own kind is essential. They will explore, learn, and form unmatched relationships. Round platforms are smaller and best suited to hamsters and smaller pets, we like to put treats up on the ledges. The westernmost lobe of the western flow is currently advancing parallel to the end of Chain of Craters Road inside Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. This flow lobe is also inflating and probably will overtop the highway and flow to the ocean, where it will cascade over a high sea cliff. We suspect that this flow should reach the ocean within the next few days. Because the active lava flows occur right at the end of the road, the viewing for visitors has been convenient and close-up. But beyond helping us pinpoint the best spots to search for life, these caves could bring us one step closer to a permanent presence on the Moon and safe exploration at Mars – the ultimate goal of the Artemis program. We don’t think there’s life to find on the Moon now, but some day the life on the Moon might be us,” said Jennifer Blank, the principal investigator for the BRAILLE project at NASA Ames. “And if I were going to the Moon, I’d want to go to a lava tube.”
