Insects magnified up to a million times their size


Scientific Photographer Steve Gschmeissner, 61, from Bedford, England using a scanner Miskroskop electrons or "Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) to enlarge his favorite specimens of insects million times actual size. The result shows the detail a little scary images in 3D form. The electron microscope scanner kuta is much more than conventional microscopes can only enlarge the object only up to 1000 times. The resulting picture is very extreme as long as the object that would be seen to enter into a tool with a high of about 4 feet and then bombarded with electrons. Electrons will send back a message in the form of super-accurate images that show the insect's body to the hair strands. SEM (Electron Microscope scanner) is a "toy" is expensive, worth between £ 150,000 to £ 500,000.

The mysterious moving rocks of Californias death valley

The sailing stones (sliding rocks, moving rocks) are a geological phenomenon where rocks move in long tracks along a smooth valley floor without human or animal intervention. They have been recorded and studied in a number of places around Racetrack Playa, Death Valley, where the number and length of travel grooves are notable. The force behind their movement is not understood and is the subject of research.
Racetrack stones only move every two or three years and most tracks develop over three or four years. Stones with rough bottoms leave straight striated tracks while those with smooth bottoms wander. Stones sometimes turn over, exposing another edge to the ground and leaving a different track in the stone's wake.
Sliding rock trails fluctuate in direction and length. Some rocks which start next to each other start out traveling parallel, but one may abruptly change direction to the left, right, or even back the direction it came from. Length also varies because two similarly sized and shaped rocks could travel uniformly, then one could burst ahead or stop dead in its track.
Speed is an unknown variable. Since these stones are rarely transported and nobody has witnessed the movement, the speeds at which the rocks travel are not known.

The most Extreme Place on Earth


Lut Dessert (Iran)

Hottest place in the World

A NASA satellite to measure the surface temperature in this place that reaches up to 71 C (159 F) which is the highest temperature on earth has ever recorded.


 Mt. Chimborazo (Ecuador)
Highest mountain of the Earth Center


Everyone knows that Mount Everest is the highest mountain in the world. Summit of Mount Everest is 8848 meters (29,028 feet) above sea level. This high altitude makes Mount Everest as a mountain with the highest altitude. But not many people know about Mount Chimborazo in Ecuador with a height of 6310 meters (20,703 feet), which is less than Mount Everest, but Chimborazo became the highest mountain of the center of the Earth. This is because the Earth is not round but oval. because the oval, the distance between the Earth's most widely located in the equator. Chimborazo is only one degree south of the equator of the earth and the location is 6384 kilometers from the center of the earth, or about 2 miles farther from the center of the earth than Mount Everest.


Tristan de Cunha (UK)
 Remote island in the world





Remote inhabited island located in the South Atlantic Ocean. Distance to the nearest continent as far as 2000 miles.


Angels Falls (Venezuela)



Highest Waterfall in the World


Waterfall Salto Angel or Angel is a water free-falling waterfall in the world with the highest altitude of 979 meters (3212 feet) with a fall without resistance about 807 meters (2647 feet). This waterfall is located in the Rio Caroni, Canaima National Park, Venezuela.

The Dry Valleys (Antarctica)



Driest place in the World


The valley is no rainfall for more than two million years and contain no water vapor (water, ice or snow).




Marianas Trench (Indonesia and Japan)



Deepest place in the World

 Mariana Trench or the Marianas Trench is the deepest abyss known, and the deepest location on the Earth's crust. He is located at the base of the northwest Pacific Ocean, east of the Mariana Islands at 11 ° 21 'north latitude and 142 ° 12' east longitude, near the well with the Japanese. This trough is the boundary where two tectonic plates meet, a subduction zone where the Pacific Plate beneath the plate disubduksi Philippines. The basis of this trough far below sea level beyond the height of Mount Everest above sea level. This trough has a maximum depth of 10,911 meters (35,798 feet) below sea level.

Strange and frightening rituals in India, which is throwing a baby boy from a height of 15 meters and is accommodated by only using the bed sheet.

The pictures taken from outer space Hubble telescope

About the Hubble Space Telescope


In 1962, the American National Academy of Sciences recommends to build a giant space telescopes. Three years later, in 1977, Congress began to raise funds for the project. In the same year, making Hubble Space Telescope begin.

Hubble telescope construction was completed in 1985. Hubble was flown for the first time on April 25, 1990. In fact, Hubble is planned to start operation in 1986. However, its operation suspended temporarily due to the disaster Space Shuttle Challenger aircraft. A few years after the operation, Hubble sends blurry images and unclear. NASA eventually discovered that the lens on the telescope is shifted as much as 1 / 50 the thickness of human hair! In December 1993, the Space Shuttle Endeavor, was sent to modify the Hubble by adding a new camera to fix an error in the primary lens.
