Members of San Francisco's homeless community waiting to use a Lava Mae bus
Showers on wheels aimed at the homeless, America - Nov 2015
FULL COPY: http://www.rexfeatures.com/nanolink/rjwo
An American start-up has created a series of portable showers-on-wheels to help the Homeless.
Not-for-profit start-up Lava Mae repurpose old buses.
The organisation turns the old buses into bathrooms on wheels, giving homeless people an access to a hot shower and use of a bathroom.
The buses turn up at various locations, six-days of the week.
The invaluable service is helping to improve the quality of life of America's homeless in San Francisco.
For many living on the streets, hygiene is a real barrier that makes it difficult for the homeless to get back on their feet.

Tunnel on the Moon could become astronaut base
Ferrari Press Agency
Tunnel 1
Ref 16011
16/07/2024
See Ferrari text
Pictures must credit: NASA/JPL Caltech
A tunnel has been discovered on the Moon which could provide a base for colonising astronauts.
Radar data taken by US space agency NASA 14 years ago has been recently studied with technologies not available at the time.
And it confirmed the presence of a giant lava tube that could be large enough to house entire bases.
Temperatures on the Moon plunge as low as 127 °C in daylight and -173 °C at night.
There is also 150 times the radiation as on the surface of the Earth.
And there is the hazard of micro-meteors while the lunar surface is covered with a highly abrasive dust that sticks to everything.
Scientists and engineers have been looking for ways to protect future Moon colonists from these hazards for more than half a century.
Both thermal insulation and radiation shielding call for habitats to be protected by heaps of soil, burrowing into the sides of craters or deep into the lava plains that all require construction.
An alternative is to find natural caves that could be modified to meet human needs.

What lies beneath: the hidden caves buried under Auckland back yards
Rich history to 200 caves - from housing a secret printing press to widow's shelter - as steps taken to protect the 'sacred' sites.
Aucklanders are familiar with the volcanic terrain of their city above ground, living side by side with 53 volcanoes. Yet many are unaware of the extraordinary landscape concealed beneath their feet. Formed by volcanic eruptions, lava caves and tunnels are rare globally, and the sprawling patchwork beneath Auckland is unique to New Zealand. The city sits on top of roughly 200 known caves with a new cave being discovered every month.
270224 Inside Sean Jacob at the entrance to his backyard lava cave in Mt Eden, Auckland. Sean bought the property in the 1990’s to protect the lava cave beneath it. Auckland's underground lava cave network - with geological and social history.
The caves have been used over the years as everything from Maori burial sites to mushroom farms, to housing a covert communist printing press.
They form an expansive network underneath the city, and now researchers are attempting to map them all, and in the process discovering a new cave roughly every month.

'One day it will just go off': are Naples' volcanic craters about to blow?
Campi Flegrei, a constellation of ancient craters in the south of Italy, is more active than Vesuvius, and residents live with daily tremors.
Solfatara is located in Campi Flegrei, a constellation of ancient volcanic craters near the southern Italian city of Naples, parts of which were described in a study this month as edging towards "breaking point".
The sprawling volcanic area, home to at least 360,000 people across the seven most at-risk inhabited hubs, is not as well known as nearby Mount Vesuvius, whose eruption in AD79 wiped out the Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum.
Part of the reason is because you can't see it: instead of resembling a characteristic cone-shaped volcano, Campi Flegrei, which can be translated as "burning fields", is a seven-mile-long caldera, or depression, formed 39,000 years ago after an eruption emptied it of magma. Subsequent eruptions - the last in 1538 - created a series of small hills and craters.
But looks can be deceiving. Campi Flegrei is much more active than Vesuvius, and is among the most dangerous volcanoes in Europe.

Campi Flegrei, a constellation of ancient craters in the south of Italy, is more active than Vesuvius, and residents live with daily tremors.
Solfatara is located in Campi Flegrei, a constellation of ancient volcanic craters near the southern Italian city of Naples, parts of which were described in a study this month as edging towards "breaking point".
The sprawling volcanic area, home to at least 360,000 people across the seven most at-risk inhabited hubs, is not as well known as nearby Mount Vesuvius, whose eruption in AD79 wiped out the Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum.
Part of the reason is because you can't see it: instead of resembling a characteristic cone-shaped volcano, Campi Flegrei, which can be translated as "burning fields", is a seven-mile-long caldera, or depression, formed 39,000 years ago after an eruption emptied it of magma. Subsequent eruptions - the last in 1538 - created a series of small hills and craters.
But looks can be deceiving. Campi Flegrei is much more active than Vesuvius, and is among the most dangerous volcanoes in Europe.

Pozzuoli, Italy - View of the Temple of Serapide in Pozzuoli. The Temple of Serapis is one of the best known and most representative monuments of the Campi Flegrei: it is located in the center of Pozzuoli, a few steps from the docks of the port. Towards the middle of the 18th century, King Charles of Bourbon, intrigued by the large columns of cipollino marble that emerged from a background known as the "Vineyard of the three columns", (Antonio Niccolini, "Description of the great Terma Puteolana, commonly called Tempo di Serapide" , Stamperia Reale Napoli 1846), ordered an archaeological excavation and, under many meters of marine residues, the so-called Temple of Serapis was unearthed, which, over the centuries, has become the symbol of Phlegrean bradyseism. In fact, there are numerous images that portray it now semi-submerged from sea level, now completely dry.

La Palma as captured by Copernicus Sentinel-2
This image, captured by the Copernicus Sentinel-2 mission on 10 October, shows the new flow of lava from the volcano erupting on the Spanish island of La Palma.
This Sentinel-2 image has been processed in true colour, using the shortwave infrared channel to highlight the lava flow. The Sentinel-2 mission is based on a constellation of two identical satellites, each carrying an innovative wide swath high-resolution multispectral imager with 13 spectral bands for monitoring changes in Earth’s land and vegetation.
The Volcanology Institute of the Canary Islands (Involcan) stated that the lava flow, with temperatures up to 1240°C, destroyed the few remaining buildings still standing north of the Todoque neighbourhood.
