A
Cosmic Call to Nearby Stars - Credit & Copyright: Yuvan Dutil & Stephane Dumas - Explanation:
If you could send a message
to an alien civilization, what would you say? The people from the Cosmic Call project
sent the above image
as the first page of a longer message. The message was broadcast toward
local stars by
radio telescope
during the summer of 1999. The single-dish, 70 meter diameter telescope is
located in the Ukraine
on the Crimean peninsula near the town of
Evpatoria. This first page involves only numbers and so is much easier
for puzzle solvers to decode than a more famous message
broadcast toward distant star cluster M13 in 1974. (The
solution is here.) Cragg Prong Waterfalls
- Waterfall Walks by Mark Morrison. The Millennium that Defines Universe Credit: Camille Flammarion; Courtesy: HSC, U. Oklahoma; Digitization: K. Magruder (OU); Coloring: R. J. Nemiroff (Michigan Tech) Explanation: Welcome to millennium three. During millennium two, humanity continually redefined its concept of "Universe": first as spheres centered on the Earth, in mid-millennium as the Solar System, a few centuries ago as the Galaxy, and within the last century as the matter emanating from the Big Bang. During millennium three humanity may hope to discover alien life, to understand the geometry and composition of our present concept of Universe, and even to travel through this Universe. Whatever our accomplishments, humanity will surely find adventure and discovery in the space above and beyond, and possibly define the surrounding Universe in ways and colors we cannot yet imagine by the threshold of millennium four.

House in the Afternoon Sun -As the sun drops to the West, the hills create gorgeous shadows. A single house illuminates the textured hillsides, typical of the landscape at 8300 feet.

Star Trails behind the Methodist Church - This 35 minute exposure (at f4) was taken a half hour after sunset to give a hint of light on the horizon to accent the spectacular and colorful star trails on a night with a half moon. The Ghost town of Bodie, California - Dan Heller PhotoTripUSA. Dawn on the Ridge - When you climb to the top of the hills that surround Bodie (where the gold mines are), you find spectacular views of the surrounding Sierra Mountains. Here, the sun rises and illuminates those that butt up against Yosemite. A small tack room sits next to a pond that used to be the reservoir that gave Bodie its water. The Ghost town of Bodie, California - Dan Heller, PhotoTripUSA. A Close-Up of Aurora on Jupiter Credit: John T. Clarke (U. Michigan), ESA, NASA Explanation: Jupiter has aurorae. Like Earth, the magnetic field of the gas giant funnels charged particles released from the Sun onto the poles. As these particles strike the atmosphere, electrons are temporarily knocked away from existing gas molecules. Electric force attracts these electrons back. As the electrons recombine to remake neutral molecules, auroral light is emitted. In the above recently released photograph by the Hubble Space Telescope taken in ultraviolet light, the aurorae appear as annular sheets around the pole. Unlike Earth's aurorae, Jupiter's aurorae include several bright streaks and dots. These marks are caused by magnetic flux tubes connecting Jupiter to its largest moons. Specifically, Io caused the bright streak on the far left, Ganymede caused the bright dot below center, and Europa caused the dot to its right.

Manicouagan Impact Crater on Earth Credit: STS-9 Crew, NASA - Explanation: The Manicouagan Crater in northern Canada is one of the oldest impact craters known. Formed during a surely tremendous impact about 200 million years ago, the present day terrain supports a 70-kilometer diameter hydroelectric reservoir in the telltale form of an annular lake. The crater itself has been worn away by the passing of glaciers and other erosional processes. Still, the hard rock at the impact site has preserved much of the complex impact structure and so allows scientists a leading case to help understand large impact features on Earth and other Solar System bodies. Also visible above is the vertical fin of the Space Shuttle Columbia from which the picture was taken in 1983.

Storm Coming - A Storm builds up in the South, just as the sun drops to the West, lighting the jailhouse with afternoon warmth. The Ghost town of Bodie, California - Dan Heller PhotoTripUSA. |
