Total Solar Eclipse
|
|
The total solar eclipse of February 26th, 1998. Pictures taken from Seroe Colorado, Aruba. This picture shows the full view of the corona. more |

Tyrannosaurus Rex
|
Tyrannosaurus rex is one of the biggest dinasaur meateaters. It ate other dinosaurs for lunch. It was taller than three men standing on each other's shoulders. Its teeth were 6 inches long and it could crush large bones when it ate. more |
Nanobes
|
Nanobes have cellular structures similar to fungi and spores but they can be 10 times smaller (20nm-1.0μm). They have hollow, membrane bound structures that are most likely composed of Carbon, Oxygen and Nitrogen. more

Cray 2
|
In 1985 Seymour Cray developed the Cray-2, which was even faster (1,200,000,000 calculations per second). more |
Mandelbrot's Fractal
|
The Mandelbrot set (the black points) are the complex numbers C for which the sequence Z0=0; Zn = Zn-12 + C remains bounded. The surrounding points are colored to represent the different rates of divergence of the unbounded sequences. more |
Particle Creation
|
In physics the The Standard Model theorizes that all the known matter particles are composites of 6 quarks and 6 leptons, and they interact
by exchanging force carrier particles. more |
A Space Walk
|
'Drifting right' I called, watching the shadow of the footpad probe straining to touch the surface. 'Contact light.' We settled silently onto the moon with perhaps only 20 seconds of fuel remaining. more

Typhoon from Space
|
The winds of a hurricane are structured around a central "eye", which is an area that is free of clouds and relatively frid calm. Around this "eye" area, storm clouds wrap in a counter-clockwise motion. more |
