Their enthusiasm was literally powerful enough to move the Earth. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We hope this work will inspire young people to engage with science and see Earth science as essential to building a more sustainable future.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The second-biggest tremor within Anfield was caused by the goal Mohamed Salah scored in front of the Kop&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":65329,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8815],"tags":[1050,748,393,1051,4884,1039,1046,1041,1052,1054,1053,179,763,1045,1044,1040,1049,1042,1047,1043,16,15,1048],"class_list":{"0":"post-65328","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-liverpool","8":"tag-alisson","9":"tag-britain","10":"tag-england","11":"tag-firmino","12":"tag-great-britain","13":"tag-homepage","14":"tag-klopp","15":"tag-lfc","16":"tag-lfc-news","17":"tag-lfctv","18":"tag-lfctv-go","19":"tag-liverpool","20":"tag-liverpool-fc","21":"tag-liverpool-fc-match","22":"tag-liverpool-fc-news","23":"tag-liverpool-football-club","24":"tag-mane","25":"tag-reds","26":"tag-salah","27":"tag-the-reds","28":"tag-uk","29":"tag-united-kingdom","30":"tag-van-dijk"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114431916289368498","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65328","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=65328"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65328\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/65329"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=65328"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=65328"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=65328"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
