    What to see : 
    Below you see a rotating array of blue crosses and 3 yellow dots. Now fixate on the centre (watch the flashing green spot). Note that the yellow spots disappear once in a while: singly, in pairs or all three simultaneously. In reality, the 3 yellow spots are continuously present, honest!

    What to do : 
    You can use the slower/faster buttons to change speed. Disappearance persists down to surprisingly low speeds. [If there are no buttons on the right, please update your Flash player.]

    You can use the larger/smaller buttons to change size. Disappearance persists up to surprisingly large sizes.

    You can use the “back-col” button to change the background colour. The yellow dots disappear into whatever colour the background has.

    The ‘defaults’ button at the top restores the standard settings.

    This is an alcohol test : 

    If you pass it, you can drink as much as you like.
    If not, it's time to stop.

    1. Click on the man's nose.

    2. A new window will open - click on the man's nose again.

    3. For each time you click on his nose, you can drink another glass of wine or beer !!!

    Resembling looming rain clouds on a stormy day, dark lanes of dust crisscross the giant elliptical galaxy Centaurus A. Hubble's panchromatic vision, stretching from ultraviolet through near-infrared wavelengths, reveals the vibrant glow of young, blue star clusters and a glimpse into regions normally obscured by the dust. This image was taken in July 2010 with Hubble's Wide Field Camera 3.

    Camping away from city lights is a memorable experience, and Utah enjoys many dark sky areas. The Grand Staircase National Monument is the stage for this view of the winter night sky. The Milky way is visible in this scene, and the brightest star here is actually not a star at all, but the planet Jupiter

    An Interactive 360° Aerial Panorama of the Worlds Highest Waterfall waterfalls Venezuela photography

    "Maybe I’m just a huge geek, but I found this vertigo-inducing aerial panorama of the world’s highest waterfall, Angel Falls, and nearby Dragon and Cortina Falls in Venezuela to be pretty incredible. This takes a few steps, but trust me it’s worth it. Head on over to AirPano and if you’re on a nice fast internet connection (or have a moment to wait) click the “High Resolution” viewer. You can turn off the music down on the bottom, click full-screen on top and then use the thumbnails on the right to switch views. Then click and drag anywhere on the screen to explore 360°. Unless you plan on traveling to Venezuela, renting a helicopter from a gold mine and flying perilously close to the 3,200 foot (979 meter) falls while dangling upside down from said helicopter, this is the next best thing. Angel Falls is so tall that the water never reaches the bottom, instead the flow turns into a dense fog during its half mile flight."
