Beijerinck is a lunarcrater on the far side of the Moon. It lies to the south of the larger crater Chaplygin, and to the northeast of the huge walled plain Gagarin.
The outer rim of this crater is heavily worn and eroded by subsequent meteor bombardment, particularly along the southern half, with several small and tiny craterlets lying along the rim. The interior floor, in contrast, is relatively level and unmarked by notable impacts. There is a small, angled central peak near the midpoint of the floor.
Satellite craters
By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater midpoint that is closest to Beijerinck.
Martinus Willem Beijerinck (16 March 1851 – 1 January 1931) was a Dutch microbiologist and botanist.
Born in Amsterdam, Beijerinck studied at the Technical School of Delft, where he was awarded the degree of Chemical Engineer in 1872. He obtained his Doctor of Science degree from the University of Leiden in 1877.
At the time, Delft, then a Polytechnic, did not have the right to confer doctorates, so Leiden did this for them. He became a teacher in microbiology at the Agricultural School in Wageningen (now Wageningen University) and later at the Polytechnische Hogeschool Delft (DelftPolytechnic, currently Delft University of Technology) (from 1895). He established the Delft School of Microbiology. His studies of agricultural and industrial microbiology yielded fundamental discoveries in the field of biology. His achievements have been perhaps unfairly overshadowed by those of his contemporaries, Robert Koch and Louis Pasteur, because unlike them, Beijerinck never studied human disease.
Crater (/ˈkreɪtər/; Arabic:كريتر, [ˈkɾeːtəɾ]), also Kraytar, is a district of the Aden Governorate, Yemen. Its official name is Seera (Arabic: صيرة Ṣīrah). It is situated in a crater of an ancient volcano which forms the Shamsan Mountains. In 1991, the population was 70,319. As of 2003, the district had a population of 76,723 people.
In the closing days of British rule in 1967, Crater District became the focus of the Aden Emergency, sometimes called the last imperial war. After a mutiny of hundreds of soldiers in the South Arabian Federation Army on 20 June, all British forces withdrew from the Crater. The Crater was occupied by Arab fighters while British forces blocked off its two main entrances. In July, a British infantry battalion, led by Lt. Col. Colin Mitchell of the Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders, entered the Crater and managed to occupy the entire district overnight with no casualties. Nevertheless, deadly guerrilla attacks soon resumed, with the British leaving Aden by the end of November 1967, earlier than had been planned by British Prime Minister Harold Wilson and without an agreement on the succeeding governance.
According to traditional Chinese uranography, the modern constellation Crater is located within the southern quadrant of the sky, which is symbolized as the Vermilion Bird of the South (南方朱雀, Nán Fāng Zhū Què).
The name of the western constellation in modern Chinese is 巨爵座 (jù jué zuò), meaning "the huge wine holder constellation".

Krakatoa: The Last Days, Clip 6 - Pyroclastic Surge (HD)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPpkWEN1J_Y
From the BBC docu-drama, "Krakatoa: The Last Days." The movie is also known as "Krakatoa: Volcano of Destruction" and aired on Discovery Channel. The movie brings to life the journals and recollections of four witnesses who survived the cataclysmic eruption of Krakatoa in August of 1883.
The Beijerinck (Beyerinck) family, along with 3,000 Ketimbang survivors, had settled further inland. They survived a tsunami and the destructive ear-shattering force of Krakatoa's explosions. They thought the worst had past, but one more is about to strike.

A pyroclastic surge is a fluid mass of turbulent gas and rock fragments which is ejected during volcanic eruptions and are similar to pyroclastic flows except that it has a higher proportion of gas to rock particles. Pyroclastic flows can generate pyroclastic surges. Because a pyroclastic surge is "lighter" than a pyroclastic flow, it can travel much faster at speeds of 350 mph carrying massive destructive kinetic energy and can actually climb higher ground.
Pyroclastic surges can be "hot" containing gas and steam at temperatures above 100 degrees Celsius (212 degrees Fahrenheit) to as much as 800 degrees Celsius(1472 degrees Fahrenheit). They can also be "cold" with temperatures below 100 degrees Celsius. Aside the temperature factor, both hot and cold pyroclastic surges can still be lethal, depending on the type of gases they carry.
Hot pyroclastic surges can cross significant bodies of water on a cushion of superheated steam just as it occurred in the Ketimbang area of Sumatra.
