Researchers find two sites with fossils including saber-toothed salmon and megalodon, the huge prehistoric shark
Marine fossils dating back to as early as 8.7m years ago have been uncovered beneath a south Los Angeles high school.
On Friday, the Los Angeles Times reported that researchers had discovered two sites on the campus of San Pedro high school under which fossils including those of a saber-toothed salmon and a megalodon, the gigantic prehistoric shark, were buried.
According to the outlet, the two sites where the fossils were found include an 8.7m-year-old bone bed from the Miocene era and a 120,000-year-old shell bed from the Pleistocene era.
The discoveries were made between June 2022 and July 2024, LAist reports.
Or maybe just the word “parsecs” means something else in tbe SW universe.
As far as I’m concerned, it means the Falcon can fly really, really fast.
Sort of funny that people argue over what ‘parsec’ could mean in Star Wars and now how falcons ended up being around a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.
