Scans of a 19th Century Science Book
After looking at this picture, I realised how much science has advanced over the last 100 years. Certainly, we don't believe in such monsters anymore. At least not the loch-ness monster. Or the fact that crocodiles cry 'fountains' of water from their tears or that they are any sort of 'competent' living being to be able to lift their heads that high above the water.
What's interesting to note is that this is what scientists believed and perceived the world to be like 100 years ago. Fascinating really. At least they had the background right.
