Pico de Orizaba (5 675 m asl, Mexico) yesterday! 🤩
What you see here is “Glaciar Norte” (~0.3 km²), Mexico's last glacier and the only one located at 19° N in the world!
In an extremely rapid withdrawal phase! 🧊🔥

The promotional image features the book Science Fiction and the Modern World: The Emergence of a Genre in a Revolutionary Age with a brightly lit nineteenth-century exhibition hall on the cover. To the right, text describes the book’s argument about science fiction’s role in redefining humanity’s relationship to nature, with the Liverpool University Press logo.
Recently published in Liverpool Science Fiction Texts and Studies | Science Fiction and the Modern World explores nineteenth-century science fiction as recalibrating humanity’s understanding of its relationship to the natural order.

BBC Sounds - Lost Horizon by James Hilton - Available Episodes
Listen to the latest episodes of Lost Horizon by James Hilton on BBC Sounds.
BBC are currently replaying their 1981 adaptation of James Hilton's Lost Horizon. #Orientalism on steroids with some very questionable accents.
