PIX4662112: Dorygnathus - Dorygnathus at altitude - Flight of dorygnathus over a forest at the beginning of the Jurassic 180 million years ago. This pterosaur had a wingspan of about 1 metre. Like all pterosaurs, dorygnathus is a flying reptile, not a dinosaur. A flock of Dorygnathus soars high over a rugged, Early Jurassic European landscape of Wollemi Pine approximately 180 million years ago. Dorygnathus had a wing span of about 3 feet and its large, curved fangs suggests that it dined primarily on fish. Like all pterosaurs, Dorygnathus was a flying reptile, not a dinosaur (the flying descendents of the dinosaurs live on today as birds) / Bridgeman Images
PIX4662925: Einiosaurus and White Rhinoceros - Comparison - Einiosaurus & White Rhinoceros compared - An adult Einiosaurus who lived 77 million years ago is compared to today's adult white rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum). The Einiosaurus was 2 metres high at the withers and weighed 3.6 tonnes, while the white rhinoceros was 1.8 metres high at the withers and weighed 3.2 tonnes. An adult Einiosaurus from 77 million years ago is compared to a modern adult White Rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum). The Einiosaurus is 6 and a half feet tall at the shoulder and weighs 8,000 pounds*, while the White Rhinoceros is 6 feet tall at the shoulder and weighs 7,000 pounds.* Values are estimates only based upon available paleontological data / Bridgeman Images
PIX4662983: Nedoceratops and White Rhinoceros - Comparison - Nedoceratops & White Rhinoceros compared - An adult Nedoceratops (Diceratops) who lived 70 million years ago is compared to today's adult white rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum). The Nedoceratops was 2.5 metres high at the withers and weighed 5.4 tons, while the white rhinoceros was 1.8 metres high at the withers and weighed 3.2 tons. An adult Nedoceratops (FKA Diceratops) from 70 million years ago is compared to a modern adult White Rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum). The Nedoceratops is a little over 8 feet tall at the shoulder and weighs 12,000 pounds*, while the White Rhinoceros is 6 feet tall at the shoulder and weighs 7,000 pounds.* Values are estimates only based upon available paleontological data / Bridgeman Images
PIX4663208: Stegoceras - Stegoceras was a herbivorous pachycephalosaur two-meres long dinosaur that lived in North America during Cretace. Stegoceras was a genus of plant-eating ornithischian pachycephalosaurid dinosaur that lived in what is now North America during the Late Cretaceous period. It had an estimated length of up to 2 meters / Bridgeman Images

PIX4654481: Grantecan Telescope - Grantecan - The Grantecan Telescope (Gran Telescopio Canarias) is the largest telescope in the world. Its hexagonal mirror measures 10.4 m in diameter. The instrument cost EUR 130 million to Spain (90%), Mexico (5%) and Florida (5%). It is located at 2400 m above sea level, at the Roque de Los Muchachos Observatory, located at the top of the island of La Palma, in the Spanish archipelago of the Canary Islands. The Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC), called GranteCAN, is a 10.4 m reflecting telescope and is undertaking commissioning observations at the Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos on the island of La Palma, Spain. It is the largest telescope of the world, in 2008 / Bridgeman Images
