Amazing and Unusual New Images of The Sun from NASA's New Eye!

(PhysOrg.com) -- NASA's recently launched Solar Dynamics Observatory, or SDO, is returning early images that confirm an unprecedented new capability for scientists to better understand our sun’s dynamic processes. These solar activities affect everything on Earth.
Some of the images from the spacecraft show never-before-seen detail of material streaming outward and away from sunspots. Others show extreme close-ups of activity on the sun’s surface. The spacecraft also has made the first high-resolution measurements of solar flares in a broad range of extreme ultraviolet wavelengths.
"These initial images show a dynamic sun that I had never seen in more than 40 years of solar research,” said Richard Fisher, director of the Heliophysics Division at NASA Headquarters in Washington. "SDO will change our understanding of the sun and its processes, which affect our lives and society. This mission will have a huge impact on science, similar to the impact of the Hubble Space Telescope on modern astrophysics.”

Unusual and Unique World Architecture Made From Toothpicks!

Stain Monro from New York has quit his job as a TV presenter since 2003 and worked full-time for the job of constructing world architectures with toothpicks. It took him 6 years to set up two breathtaking “toothpicks city” by using 6 millions toothpicks and 170 liter gluewater, including Big Ben in London, London Tower Bridge, Sydney Opera House, Eiffel Tower in Paris, Empire State Building in New York,Dubai Voyage Sails Hotel etc. more than 50 models of famous landmark structure in the world.

Very Amazing Self-Piloting Flying Car DARPA Project

The Terrafugia Transition is a roadable aircraft that was tested last year. DARPA's plans for the Transformer X call for the vehicle to be capable of flying on autopilot and driving off-road, among other features. Credit: Terrafugia.

DARPA wants a prototype that will be ready for ground and flight tests by 2015, and that will cost no more than $43 million to develop. Although the TX is currently just a lofty goal, it has the potential to transform military transportation - and possibly even civilian transportation, if everything goes as planned.

AMAZING FLYING CAR!
