Amazing Bridge |
The bridge goes under water to allow movement of ships. In order for ships to pass, this bridge is half under the water. You drive down in the water and then come out on the other side. Truly a marvelous piece of engineering! This bridge is between Sweden and Denmark. The picture was taken from the Sweden side.

India's Chandrayaan-1 Space Exploration - A New Era |

above the lunar surface was taken by the Moon Mineralogy
Mapper, one of two NASA instruments onboard the Indian
Space Research Organization's Chandrayaan-1 spacecraft.
The Chandrayaan-1 spacecraft was constructed, launched, and is operated by the Indian Space Research Organization. The spacecraft carry the Moon Mineralogy Mapper instrument. the instrument is a state-of-the- art imaging spectrometer designed to provide the first map of the entire lunar surface at high spatial and spectral resolution. Scientists will use this information to answer questions about the moon's origin and development and the evolution of terrestrial planets in the early solar system. Future astronauts will use it to locate resources, possibly including water, that can support exploration of the moon and beyond.

Under the Ice |
In the middle of the years 60 the multinational ITT built a polar station in the Antarctica, the "Byrd Station", with a pair of towers of to 35 meters of height. This polar station, just like other many in the South pole, was abandoned by the Americans in the decade of the 80 and today remains buried to various meters under the ice. The image, taken various years later, sample how the ice has buried even the cranes that were utilized for its construction. It is extracted of iceagenow.com, the page of a scientist that assures that the polar caps, far from to be diminishing for the effect greenhouse, they are growing to a minatory and constant rhythm for the life in the Land.
