Who does not love watching the full moon?

I could get a glimpse of the full moon where I lived
only for a brief period after the PourNami pooja.

We used to live in a construction resembling a chimney.
More and more chimney like apartments had appeared on all the sides.

So getting a glimpse of the rising Sun or Moon became a rare treat
Here I can gaze at the full moon as long as I want to! :)

We saw the Strawberry Moon yesterday.
Not just the Full Moon.

We got a very clear view of the Doughnut shaped Saturn.
We saw Jupiter with four bright moons of its own.

The full Moon when viewed through the sophisticated telescope was
so brilliant that it our the eyes just as the Sun does!!!

    [h=3]'Barbaric' burglars who tortured couple with boiling water have jail sentence almost doubled[/h] Two ”barbaric” burglars who tied up a couple in their home and poured boiling water over their heads have had their prison sentences almost doubled. Kacey Adams, 34, and Daniel Wallace, 33, broke into John and Janis Buswell’s Kent bungalow as Mr Buswell, 66, watched TV and his 64-year-old wife knitted clothes for her expected great-grandchild. Both men, who had earlier been found guilty of conspiracy to murder after a man was shot in the face in a revenge attack, admitted aggravated burglary and causing grievous bodily harm with intent.






 
I bet this bird will soon be SEEN in the world!!! :thumb:

[h=3]99-million-year-old bird found preserved in amber stuns scientists[/h] Archeologists have just discovered a nearly complete bird, encased in fossilized tree sap, that has remained intact for almost 100 million years. The bird, which was just a few days old at the time of its death, is one of the most stunningly preserved examples of pre-history avian life ever recovered - but this is no ordinary bird. The dream of resurrecting dinosaurs from their ancient remains, like in Jurassic Park , might be nothing more than science fiction , but one aspect of the pseudoscience depicted in the film franchise is actually quite true: archaeologists regularly find prehistoric bugs and other small creatures perfectly preserved in amber. This newly-discovered fossil, which was located in Burma, includes half of the bird's entire body, including a wing, claws, and head. Unlike modern birds, this newborn hatchling is from a now-extinct branch of the family tree called Enantiornithines. Researchers say they would have looked a lot like modern-day avians, with the exception of some added features such as claws on their wing tips and small teeth tucked away in their beaks. The fossil has already taught researchers a lot about the ancient species. They've determined that birds like these were able to take care of themselves much earlier than most modern bird species, thanks to fully developed flight feathers at the time of their hatching, suggesting that they could take to the skies immediately rather than being confined to a nest for the early part of their lives. The amber treasure will soon be put on display at the Shanghai Museum of Natural History until the end of July.

    [h=3]'When life still carried on!' Amazing 1941 colour pictures show defiance of the Blitz[/h] Following a series of terrorist attacks in 2017, after which Brits refused to be cowed, many have made comparisons to the ‘Blitz spirit’ of defiance during the Second World War The Blitz involved a relentless campaign of bombing raids over Britain carried out by the German Luftwaffe during 1940 and 1941, killing 43,000 civilians. Many of the raids were concentrated on London as the Germans targeted industry and civilian centres but Londoners carried on with their daily lives, working around the rubble. These incredible photos showing scenes of endurance among the carnage, are the work of Royston Leonard, a Cardiff-based electrician who colourises black and white images as a hobby. “The Blitz was a very hard time when life still carried on around the country,” said Mr Royston.

I got goosebumps when I visited a swimming school where children as young as 6 months in age

were released under water and were expected to swim across to the mother

standing a few feet away from the trainer inside the shallow pool.

What if the child fills up the lungs with water leading to dry drowning?? :scared:

Snap is developing a second version of Spectacles which may include augmented reality

Snap extended the sale of its Spectacles into Europe this month, but already the company is working on a second version of the video-recording glasses which could be quite radical, according to a source with knowledge of the plans. The first set of Spectacles went on sale last year and are priced at $129.99. The second-generation project is closely guarded inside the company -- to the point that few of Snap's 1,800 staff are aware of the product's details or when it will ship, another source told TechCrunch.

I would love to see a colourful cloud show!!! :)

[h=3]NASA will put on a colorful cloud show for the East Coast tonight[/h] East Coast-ers should take a look up tonight, because NASA is putting on a show. As part of an experiment to track how particles move in space, researchers are releasing bright, color-changing vapors into the sky. Around five minutes after the rocket launch, the canisters will deploy and release their contents, which will form colorful clouds known as "vapor tracers." Those clouds will let scientists on the ground track how particles move in space.
