unusual facts about Crust



ALSE

The Lunar Sounder Experiment studied several wrinkle ridges in southern Mare Serenitatis in detail, providing information about both the topography of these ridges and about structures in the crust below these ridges.

Cecil Brower

He then toured with bandleader Ted Fio Rito's orchestra until returning to Texas in 1939, when he joined the Light Crust Doughboys.

Close to Critical

The book is set on the planet Tenebra, a planet of the star Altair and a world with thick atmosphere, a shifting crust, crushingly-strong gravity and surface temperatures of just over 374 degrees Celsius, close to the critical point of water.

D-beat

Antischism (South Carolina), and Destroy! (Minneapolis) were also significant U.S. crust groups.

Earth crust displacement

Plate tectonics, scientific theory which describes the large scale motions of Earth's crust (lithosphere).

Supercontinent cycle, the quasi-periodic aggregation and dispersal of Earth's continental crust.

Egg tart

The egg tart or egg custard tart (commonly romanized as dan tat) is a kind of custard tart pastry found in Portugal, England, Hong Kong and other Asian countries, which consists of an outer pastry crust that is filled with egg custard and baked.

Fingerprints of the Gods

The book was influenced by Rose and Rand Flem-Ath's When the Sky Fell: in Search of Atlantis (1995/2009) in which they expand the evidence for Charles Hapgood's theory of earth crust displacement and propose Antarctica as the site of Atlantis.

G. H. Cunningham

Cunningham produced definitive monographs of New Zealand Gasteromycetes (puffballs), Polyporaceae (pore fungi), Thelephoraceae (crust fungi), and Uredinales (rust fungi).

Gorringe Ridge

The seamount is composed of gabbros of the oceanic crust, serpentized rocks and alkaline basalts.

Jim Breuer

Breuer appeared in Pizza Hut commercials, advertising the cheese crust-filled pizzas using the catch phrase, "Jackpot!".

Kettle corn

These formulations can have the sweet-salty flavor of kettle corn but not the same texture, which normally comes from the crunchy sugar crust of kettle corn made from scratch.

Landels-Hill Big Creek Reserve

There are depositions of sea floor deposits from the Cretaceous age, as well as Franciscan Complex, a medley of rock scraped off the oceanic crust as the Pacific Plate subducts beneath the North American Plate.

Light Crust Doughboys

The Light Crust Doughboys were charter inductees into the Texas Western Swing Hall of Fame in 1989, and were also inducted into the Rockabilly Hall of Fame.

Midpoint Café

The Disney California Adventure park returns the café as a conventional restaurant, reinstating the legendary "ugly crust pie" recipe to the menu.

Native state

Most usable metallic ores in the Earth's crust are oxides or sulfides, and as such do not manifest the properties of refined metals.

No gods, no masters

The slogan was rephrased as No Gods, No Managers, as an album title by American crust punk band Choking Victim.

Our Man Bashir

Komananov explains that a scientist called Dr. Noah is planning to take over the world using lasers to cut into the Earth's crust resulting in the shrinking of the tectonic plates sinking and causing global flooding.

Paleo-Tethys Ocean

A last remnant of Paleo-Tethys Ocean might be an oceanic crust under the Black Sea.

Paleontology in Louisiana

During the Middle Jurassic, Bathonian and Callovian, the stretching of the crust between North and South America created a broad basin within the continental crust that opened initially to the Pacific Ocean and later to the Atlantic Ocean.

Phlebopus

Phlebopus tropicus has been shown to form a crust of mycelium around the roots of species of Citrus in Brazil covering colonies of the comstock mealybug Pseudococcus comstocki which attack the roots of these plants after they have been carried there by ants (Solenopsis saevissima var. moelleri); these mycelial crusts are called criptas by Brazilian writers.

Pulverised fuel ash

In dry conditions these solutes rise to the surface to form a hard salt crust, impeding all plant growth, though hardy grass species such as Vulpia myuros can later colonise it.

Quindim

In any case, the mixture is poured into a greased cupcake pan, placed into another baking pan with 1–2 cm of water, and baked at 150–180 C or 350°F until a golden brown crust forms and an inserted toothpick comes out clean.

Seismology

In 1926 Harold Jeffreys was the first to claim, based on his study of earthquake waves, that below the crust, the core of the Earth is liquid.

Telluric

Telluric current, a natural electrical current in the Earth's crust

Terana caerulea

In 1763 Michel Adanson had devised the genus name Terana for similar crust fungi and in 1891 Otto Kuntze included coerulea in that genus to create the modern name.

The Pain Teens

The group was signed to King Coffey's Trance Syndicate label for their offbeat yet nightmarish psychedelic music—similar to labelmates Crust and Coffey's band, Butthole Surfers.

The Power-House

Harvie cites a comparable passage from the second volume of The Golden Bough, where Frazer speaks of "a solid layer of savagery beneath the surface of society," which, "unaffected by the superficial changes of religion and culture," is "a standing menace to civilisation. We seem to move on a thin crust which may at any time be rent by the subterranean forces slumbering beneath."

The Tribute Show

In late 2011 Jon was in close contact with the UK Dolly Parton performer Sarah Jayne to use footage of her tours on the show, her partner happened to be another UK entertainer, Andy Crust, who performs with Sarah as Kenny Rogers and are Europe's leading Kenny & Dolly impersonators.

Tonalite-Trondhjemite-Granodiorite

It is widely accepted that most Archaean granitegreenstones are dominated by TTG, although Late Archaean terranes, such as in the Yilgarn Craton, are dominated by potassium-rich granitoid rocks that are derived through remelting of older felsic TTG-dominated crust.

Trans-Hudson orogeny

crustal thickening occurred that was associated with accretion of an intra-oceanic arc terrane and subsequent regional metamorphic activity characterized by the growth of retrograde, upper amphibolite-facies assemblages that define a clockwise, decompressive P–T path (pressure-temperature) path.
