chers have discovered, in an-
cient manuscripts, drawings

of the making of a scientist who
sought out scientific knowledge
lost to Europe in the Dark Ages
and helped launch a new scien-
tific age.

500 YEARS ANNIVERSARY
Halfway to Norway, straddling
the Atlantic Ocean and the Nor-
th Sea, Shetland is the wildest

even getting there is not always
easy. The life of its inhabitants
is ruled by the sudden changes
in the weather: strong winds
alternate with thick fog. People
live in perfect harmony with
wildlife. Anyone who’s been to
Shetland sooner or later will
come back again!
