Displacement on Astypalaea Linea at Cyclades Macula and Thasus Linea, and near the southern end of the fault, was 42 km, 41.5 km, and 42.5 km, respectively. http://pirlwww.lpl.arizona.edu/HIIPS/Publications/tufts_AL/      Jupiter's moon Europa has a ma Bends in the fault have allowed the surface to be pulled apart as this movement took place along Astypalaea Linea, considered to be one of the largest strike-slip faults known to exist anywhere. The new Galileo images show that about 50 kilometres of movement or "displacement" has taken place along the fault, located near Europa's South Pole. But he has a theory to explain why the fault exists. http://www.exn.ca/html/templates/printstory.cfm?ID=1998120852      Diogenes Laertius: Life of Onesicritus, from Lives of the Philosophers, translated by C.D. Yonge BY DIOGENES LAERTIUS, TRANSLATED BY C.D. ONESICRITUS is called by some authors an Aeginetan, but Demetrius the Magnesian affirms that he was a native of Astypalaea. http://www.classicpersuasion.org/pw/diogenes/dlonesicritus.htm      Strike-slip faults on Europa Mapping of five different regions on Europa has revealed 121 strike-slip faults including Astypalaea Linea a 800 km long fault with 42 km of right-lateral offset. This survey of five different regions on Europa has revealed 121 strike-slip faults. Moreover, near the northern end there is a rhomboidal gap which appears to have been opened by 42 km of shear along the fault (Tufts 1996). http://pirlwww.lpl.arizona.edu/HIIPS/Publications/hoppa_shear      Aphrodite When the women of Astypalaea angered her by claiming to be more beautiful than she, she made them grow cow horns. She caused Aegus to be childless until he introduced her worship in Athens. Clearly, Aphrodite's abilities were not simply a tool for creating petty loves. http://www.arthistory.sbc.edu/imageswomen/papers/lombardiaphrodite/aphrodite.html      Europa Fault Gives California's San Andreas A Run For Its Money Bends in the fault have allowed the surface to be pulled apart as this movement took place along Astypalaea Linea, which is the largest known strike-slip fault on Europa and one of the largest strike-slip faults known to exist anywhere. The new Galileo images show that about 50 kilometers (more than 30 miles) of movement, or "displacement," has taken place along the fault, which is located near Europa& South Pole. The Europan fault, known as Astypalaea Linea (pronounced ast-ipp-uh-LAY-uh LINN-ee-uh) was first discovered in 1996 when Dr. Randy Tufts, Galileo imaging team affiliate and research associate at the University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ, reviewed distant images taken years earlier by NASA's Voyager spacecraft. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/1998/12/981209080516.htm      Lecture 1 Honor him with sacrifices; for he is no longer a mortal.

Apparently there had been a plague of hares on Astypalaea and the inhabitants decided to consult the Delphic oracle for help. Athenaeus quotes from the Delphin of Hegesander, a work now lost, in which reference is made to what seems to have been almost a "game" war between the inhabitants of the islands of Anaphi and Astypalaea. http://www.cretedirect.com/book%20extract.htm      PLANETARY SCIENCES Galileo has also revealed a fault about 810 km in length called Astypalaea Linea. The fault is strike-slip in nature and similar to the San Andreas fault on Earth. Astypalaea Linea may be evidence of an earlier expansion phase, since it appears presently to be dormant. http://www.johnkharms.com/planetary.htm      A Smaller Classical Dictionary of Biography, Mythology and Geography - tura, Astures, Astyages, Astyanax, Astypalaea, ...

And in their sorrow they would have stayed from going further had not Hera kindled exceeding courage in Ancaeus, whom near the waters of Imbrasus Astypalaea bore to Poseidon; for especially was he skilled in steering and eagerly did he address Peleus: http://sunsite.berkeley.edu/OMACL/Argonautica/book2.html      [62.07] Galileo views of Astypalaea Linea: Strike-slip on Europa Shear was not generated externally, as evidenced by the lack of simple shear structures adjacent to the fault. [62.07] Galileo views of Astypalaea Linea: Strike-slip on Europa Walking occurred in the strike-slip segments of the fault, explaining the presence of "Class 1"-like doublet ridges (Greenberg taxonomy) there. http://www.aas.org/publications/baas/v31n4/dps99/146.htm      Baffling Seismic Fault Seen in Icy Crust of Jovian Moon Yet Europa's fault, named Astypalaea Linea after the sister of Europa in Greek mythology, appears inactive now, for undisturbed ridges of ice cross it here and there -- a sure sign that no icequakes have sundered the crust in geologically recent times. Tufts and Torrance Johnson of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, the Galileo mission's project manager, have at least a tentative explanation for the curious nature of the Astypalaea fault, and for the myriad of other much shorter faults that create a strange kind of latticework all over Europa's surface. Images taken by the Galileo spacecraft show that it has kinks or jogs along its length just as the San Andreas system has. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/chronicle/archive/1998/12/08/MN57029.DTL&type=printable      Catalog Page for PIA01642 Comparisons between these structures related to faults on Europa and those on Earth may generate ideas useful in the study of terrestrial faulting. Such rotated structure is typical of a process known as "simple shear," and characterizes many large strike-slip faults on Earth. In this case, however, simple shear structures seem limited to the interior of the Cyclades Macula pull apart region and do not appear to border the elongate trunk of the fault, Astypalaea Linea. http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/cgi-bin/PIAGenCatalogPage.pl?PIA01642      [No title] That process is prominent in the 800km-long strike-slip fault Astypalaea Linea. Dilational lineaments develop when an externally forced secular dilation superimposes upon daily tidal cycling. Strike-slip is driven by "walking," an effect of the rotating diurnal tidal stress field. http://www.emerald.ucsc.edu/~asphaug/tufts_europa.html      ICARUS 53 Astypalaea Linea: A large-scale strike-slip fault on Europa http://astrosun.tn.cornell.edu/Icarus/ToC/contents_990901.html      Salamastra Log book Rhodes, Symi, Tilos, Astypalaea, Anafi, Ios, Folegandros, Kimolos, Milos, Serifos, Anavyssos, Athens http://www.ntua.gr/arch/geometry/tns/Salamastra/SalaLog.htm      Bryn Mawr Classical Review 1999.08.08 Throughout its history the island of Sri Lanka has been known by many names. Among Greek writers, beginning with Onesicritus of Astypalaea, a commander in the fleet of Alexander the Great, the most common name for the island was Taprobane (Taprobanê). http://ccat.sas.upenn.edu/bmcr/1999/1999-08-08.html      Calanus Onesicritus of Astypalaea, one of Alexander's officers and biographers, writes that the king sent him to the Indian sages, only to be ridiculed by them and to be thaught cosmology (click here for the story). http://www.livius.org/caa-can/calanus/calanus.html      Water on Europa This strike-slip fault has plates of ice pulling apart from one another where the fault bends. This Galileo image shows the Astypalaea Linea fault (red line) near the moon's south pole. The discovery of Astypalaea Linea in 1996 by Galileo has allowed for speculation on the possibility of the water beneath the surface concurring with volcanic activity to create ice-filled faults. http://www-personal.umich.edu/~kknoke/water.html      The New Yorker: Fact This feature offered clear evidence that parts of Europa& crust were slowly moving—perhaps even floating. Galileo photographs revealed that the crack, which was subsequently named the Astypalaea Linea, extends about six hundred miles, which is comparable to the San Andreas Fault. That summer, it occurred to Tufts that the curvature exhibited by both the Astypalaea Linea and the arcuate ridges could be caused by the immense gravitational pull of Jupiter, which has three hundred times the mass of Earth. http://www.newyorker.com/fact/content/?030908fa_fact      Aegean For Amorgan cities, see Aegiale, Arcesine, and Minoa.

Textural and geometrical analysis shows that only crust resorption of ancient material on the border of the band well preserves the continuity of the piercing points. However, even with the most favourable assumptions on the chemistry or the tectonic pressures exerted in the crust, surface ice melting cannot be obtained [9] and an additional heat source must be supplied. http://www.oal.ul.pt/~eurojove/abs/s4/nnn_abs_Mevel.html      Untitled Document The geomorphology and sedimentology of the July 9th 1956 Aegean Sea tsunami, Astypalaea Island, Greece. http://www.soc.soton.ac.uk/SOES/RESAC/GAU/accv.htm      Astypalaea Linea Galileo images of this fault are broadening models and may help build understanding of earth movements on our own planet. Broad areal coverage of Europa obtained by Voyager 2 in 1979 (left image) offered the first view of this intriguing fault called Astypalaea Linea. Here on Earth, unlike Europa, large strike-slip faults like the San Andreas are set in motion by plate tectonic forces. http://berlinadmin.dlr.de/Missions/galileo/sepo/atjup/europa/asty.html      The Tsunami Generated from the Eruption of the Volcano of Santorin in the Bronze Age The best documented and most recent tsunamigenic earthquake is the one that occurred on 9 July 1956 near the southwest coast of the island of Amorgos, killing 53 people, injuring 100, and destroying hundreds of houses (Galanopoulos, 1957). The waves were particularly high on the south coast of Amorgos and on the north coast of the island of Astypalaea. http://www.drgeorgepc.com/TsunamiSantorin.html      The 'good' sources on Alexander the Great Like Achilles, Alexander had chosen to be famous and die young. Another officer who wrote memoirs, was Onesicritus of Astypalaea (c.380-c.305). http://www.livius.org/aj-al/alexander/alexander_z1b.html      Kattenhorn, S.A. and Marshall, S.T. (2003) There is clear evidence of lateral offsets across many large Europan lineaments, such as the 810 km long, right-lateral, Astypalaea Linea. We have identified tailcracks along many Europan strike-slip faults, with geometries compatible with the sense of slip. At any point on Europa, the tidal stresses are constantly rotating, causing shear stresses to be resolved onto pre-existing lineaments. http://www.webpages.uidaho.edu/~simkat/agu03a.html      Galileo buzzes Europa See also this image of Astypalaea Linea, a slip-strike fault on Europa similar to the San Andreas fault on our planet. A computer generated three dimensional perspective shows that bright material, probably pure water ice, prevails at the ridge crests and slopes while most dark material is confined to lower areas such as valley floors. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, CA manages the Galileo mission for NASA's Office of Space Science, Washington, DC. http://science.nasa.gov/newhome/headlines/ast02feb99_1.htm      [No title] Straight segments of the fault are concentric about an Euler pole provisionally located at (-48deg, 247.25deg W). Spanning over 29deg from (-60deg,191deg W) to (-78.5deg, 268.5deg W) Astypalaea Linea is the longest strike-slip fault yet identified on Europa. Analogous structures may exist at the Europan north pole, although factors such as a possible global structural dichotomy (Lucchitta and Soderblom, 1981) may affect their occurrence. http://www.bdl.fr/nsdc/bi/1996DPS....28.0421T.html      Scientists Uncover First-Ever Evidence of Tidal Squeezing On Europa Galileo mosaics of Astypalaea, the area where Europa's folds were found. They say these folds all but complete scientists’ prediction of a flexing Europan crust, which is alternately stretched and squeezed as the moon orbits planet Jupiter. The geological map on the right shows crustal crests (gray arrows) and ridges (black arrows) associated with folds. http://www.space.com/scienceastronomy/solarsystem/europa_squeeze_000810.html      "EUROPA" This image was taken by the Voyager 2 spacecraft. In the Astypalaea Linea region on Europa in the southern hemisphere we find these "dips and swells" which are caused from the upwelling of new material through the cracks in the surface ice. The image on the left was enhanced to see finer detail, and the image on the right the large scale features are emphasized. http://www.wtv-zone.com/Androm31/Europa/europa3.htm      Argonauts This Ancaeüs should not be confused with the other Argonaut of the same name, the young Arcadian son of Lycurgus and Cleophyle or Eurynome, who would be one of the heroes, who would be killed in the Calydonian Boar Hunt. They chose a new pilot from Samos, named Ancaeüs (Ancaeus), son of Poseidon and Astypalaea.

The size and nature of the folds - crests possibly tens to hundreds of meters high and spaced about 25 kilometers (16 miles) apart - also tell the researchers about the surface itself. The Astypalaea Linea region of Europa's southern hemisphere, shown in this photo from NASA/JPL/Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory and Brown, is the smooth gray area that stretches from north to south across the image mosaic. http://www.brown.edu/Administration/George_Street_Journal/vol25/25GSJ02f.html      UFOS at close sight: life on Europa As astronomy progresses, the focus on Europe raises because it is more and more a good candidate for extraterrestrial life.

While Pappalardo and Sullivan noted that the orientation is perpendicular to the direction of tensile stress for non-synchronous rotation, the agreement is really not very good and would have been even worse in the past. Such large displacement can be explained by invoking cumulative effects of the diurnal tide, but by a mechanism different from the ratcheting open of cracks that was described in Sec. http://pirlwww.lpl.arizona.edu/HIIPS/Publications/greenberg_tectonics/      105 B.C. - events and references Document: CIL _698, a contract for building work at Puteoli.
