In astronomy, an “analemma” is, according to Wikipedia, ” a curve representing the changing angular offset of a celestial body (usually the Sun) from its mean position on the celestial sphere as viewed from anoth...
We know nature is beautiful. Seeing as most of us live in a man-dominated world, viewing photos of nature is often an enjoyable task. Sometimes, however, man-made objects are also beautiful (in their own way). While a NASA space s...
We have already seen lions and their cub strolling in the middle of the road. Want to see another similar inspirational photo? Look no further than the photograph I have to show you today. The following is a photo of a cheetah and...

The following is a photograph of… I have no bloody clue. It looks like it may be some sort of residue from a man-made explosion, such as a flare, but the captions on the photo claim it is from nature. So the best way I can d...
Anyone that has lived in the desert knows how dangerous a dust storm can be. However, dust storms have a pretty side to them, too — if even from the sky. The following is a photograph of the aerial view of a dust storm that ...
