This is an absolutely effing phenomenal story and a one-stop demonstration of why we need Arts/Humanities researchers (or, even better, since there's some geology in there too, why the STEM/SHAPE divide is doing nobody any favours)

There's a Tony Stark-Peter Parker poem which makes me see the point of Horace and I didn't think anyone could do anything else with Catullus 51/Sappho fr 31, but @AnnaJacksonSt has given me goosebumps. And it's so PRETTY.
