EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a fossil bryozoan, captured through a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The image reveals the delicate details of this ancient marine invertebrate, known as Actinopora disticha, which existed during the Cretaceous period. Preserved within sedimentary rock from Kent, UK, this specimen offers valuable insights into our planet's prehistoric past. Bryozoans are colonial organisms commonly referred to as "moss animals" due to their moss-like appearance. This particular bryozoan belongs to the family Theonoidae and order Tubuliporina. Its mesmerizing structure consists of interconnected tubes or branches that formed colonies in ancient seas. The monochrome presentation adds an artistic touch while emphasizing the fine textures and patterns present on its surface. Through SEM technology, scientists can explore these fossils at a microscopic level, unraveling secrets about their growth patterns and evolutionary history. Displayed by the Natural History Museum in London and available through Science Photo Library for educational purposes only, this photograph serves as a testament to both the wonders of paleontology and mankind's relentless curiosity about Earth's phanerozoic era. It reminds us that beneath our feet lies an extraordinary world waiting to be discovered - one that holds countless stories from millions of years ago.
