  • NO WEB FOR FRANCE - The Capuchin Catacombs of Palermo, Sicily, Italy on January 2019. The catacombs contain about 8000 corpses and 1252 mummies. Palermo's Capuchin monastery outgrew its original cemetery in the 16th century and monks began to excavate crypts below it. In 1599 they mummified one of their number, recently dead brother Silvestro of Gubbio, and placed him into the catacombs. The cemetery was first reserved for ecclesiastical workers, then accepted deceased from all walks of life, and experienced its greatest popularity during the 19th century. An inscription hanging from the neck or pinned to the chest, indicates the name, birth and death dates of the deceased.The cemetary was officially closed by civil order in 1880. But the last burials are from the 1920s. The cemetary has now become a kind of museum, filled with the forgotten dead, who are watched over by a group of Capuchin monks. Sicily will reveal over time a real research laboratory on mummification. It is spreading throughout the island and there is not an important village in sight that does not display the bodies of their priests, monks or citizens in the crypt of their church.

  • NO WEB FOR FRANCE - The Capuchin Catacombs of Palermo, Sicily, Italy on January 2019. The mummified body of Antonio Prestigiacomo ( d.1844) one of the best preserved. The catacombs contain about 8000 corpses and 1252 mummies. Palermo's Capuchin monastery outgrew its original cemetery in the 16th century and monks began to excavate crypts below it. In 1599 they mummified one of their number, recently dead brother Silvestro of Gubbio, and placed him into the catacombs. The cemetery was first reserved for ecclesiastical workers, then accepted deceased from all walks of life, and experienced its greatest popularity during the 19th century. An inscription hanging from the neck or pinned to the chest, indicates the name, birth and death dates of the deceased.The cemetary was officially closed by civil order in 1880. But the last burials are from the 1920s. The cemetary has now become a kind of museum, filled with the forgotten dead, who are watched over by a group of Capuchin monks.

  • February 5, 2018 - Space - NASA's former chief exploration scientist, Michael Wargo, has been posthumously honored with the distinction of having a lunar crater named after him. Wargo Crater is an 8.6-mile (13.8 km) diameter impact crater sitting on the northwest edge of Joule T crater, on the far side of the Moon. Wargo worked at NASA from 1991 until his death in 2013. The International Astronomical Union is the naming authority for celestial bodies, and reserves the naming of Moon craters for deceased astronauts and cosmonauts, as well as deceased scientists and polar explorers who have made outstanding or fundamental contributions to their field. Wargo had many remarkable contributions to exploration science throughout his 20-year career at NASA. He was known as a science ambassador to the public, and for his ability to decipher complex science for students and nontechnical audiences. He was passionate about scientific discoveries that would enable human exploration in deep space, and worked with planetary researchers around the world to develop robotic discovery missions.
