'The Cosmic Connection' "We are like the inhabitants of an isolated valley in New Guinea who communicate with societies in neighboring valleys (quite different societies, I might add) by runner and by drum. When asked how a very advanced society will communicate, they might guess by an extremely rapid runner or by an improbably large drum. They might not guess a technology beyond their ken. And yet, all the while, a vast international cable and radio traffic passes over them, around them, and through them... "We will listen for the interstellar drums, but we will miss the interstellar cables. We are likely to receive our first messages from the drummers of the neighboring galactic valleys - from civilizations only somewhat in our future.
An Insane Helicopter Ride! This helicopter ride definitely had the hair standing up on my neck. It’s amazing to see the ease of maneuverability that this pilot achieves around and over these tree lines. When you see this German B0-105 Helicopter clear the treeline in the distance and move toward the camera you start to get a real feel for just how fast this thing is moving. This clip could definitely serve as a promotional video to show just what these amazing examples of Germany engineering are capable of. Maybe it’s just that I’m a child of the 70s but was I the only one that got a cheezy smile on my face when they queued up that funky action flick music from the 70s? Watching that helicopter maneuvering around trees, swooping close to the ground and screaming past the camera, I found myself in the midst of an ‘A Team’ flashback.
Interactive Scale Of The Universe Trying to imagine the smallest things in our universe is a rather difficult task. Similarly, it is hard to truly conceive of the largest things in the cosmos—supermassive black holes, large quasar groups, and the most massive stars. So it’s not too surprising that simultaneously imagining the smallest of the small and the largest of the large […] Trying to imagine the smallest things in our universe is a rather difficult task. Similarly, it is hard to truly conceive of the largest things in the cosmos—supermassive black holes, large quasar groups, and the most massive stars. So it’s not too surprising that simultaneously imagining the smallest of the small and the largest of the large is a mind-bendingly difficult task.

Welsh ship's surgeon who witnessed the killing of Captain Cook and introduced surfing to the world AN 18th century ship’s surgeon from Denbighshire was the unlikely character to introduce surfing to the world, according to a TV programme being broadcast this evening . David Samwell, from Nantglyn, was also a witness to the killing in Hawaii of one of the world’s most famous adventurers, Captain James Cook. Samwell’s description of the incident is the official record of Cook’s death. Samwell joined Cook’s third voyage in 1776 on board the ship Resolution which set sail from London. Cook landed on some of the world’s most remote islands and Samwell described the lives of the natives and diligently noted every aspect of their lives. He was the first to record on paper a number of local customs, including surfing.
Romanian NGO on Their Way to Guinness Book for Building the Largest Plastic Bottles Bridge in... Photo by EyeInTheSky, used with author’s permission PET = Polyethylene terephthalate, a thermoplastic polymer resin of the polyester family, used in beverage, food and other liquid containers. It is a different version of Bridge Over Troubled Waters, as the trouble here is the plastic waste. Using 104402 recycled plastic bottles, the Romanians from ecostuff.ro have build the world’s largest plastic bottles construction, which will be featured in Guinness Book: a bridge that connects the two banks of Bega River, which crosses the Romanian town of Timisoara. “PETs place is not in the water,” says Radu Rusu, the project initiator.
Greetings from the Children of Planet Earth : Universe In 1977, NASA sent a pair of unmanned probes named Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 into space. Among the infrared spectrometers and radio receivers included on each probe were identical copies of the same non-scientific object: the Voyager Golden Record. Sheathed in a protective aluminum jacket, the Record is a 12-inch gold-plated copper disk containing sounds and images chosen to portray the diversity of life on Earth: bird calls, whale songs, the sounds of surf, wind, and thunder, music from human cultures, and some 55 greetings in a range of languages, alive and dead. Like lonely time capsules, the records, aboard their still-functioning hosts, have long since left our solar system. The official Voyager 2 Twitter reports that the probe is currently at 13 hrs 38 mins 08 secs of light-travel time from Earth, which makes it the farthest man-made object from Earth. And neither, of course, are we.
