The Northern lights
The Northern lights
The aurora borealis has been fascinating travellers to Norway and locals alike for generations, but what is the science behind the northern lights?
Each appearance of the northern lights is unique. Often you see three green bands across the night sky. Or the lights come as flickering curtains or rolling smoke. The colour is a luminous green, often with a hint of pink along the edge, and occasionally with a deep violet centre. The colour palette seems to come from the 1980s.
If there is a lot of activity up there, the northern lights explode for a minute or two in a corona. The next minute it is all over, and you ask yourself whether this was real or just an Arctic fata morgana.
The science behind the northern lights
But what exactly are the northern lights? It is the sun that lies behind the formation of the auroras. During large solar explosions and flares, huge quantities of particles are thrown out of the sun and into deep space.
When the particles meet the Earth's magnetic shield, they are led towards a circle around the magnetic North Pole, where they interact with the upper layers of the atmosphere. The energy which is then released is the northern lights. All this happens approximatelty 100 kilometres above our heads.

Hanshin Expressway Goes Through a Building
Hanshin Expressway Goes Through a Building
It's not easy building a new highway in Japan, since it's one of the most crowded places in the world. For instance, often you'll find that the place where you want to build your roadway happens to be obstructed by a skyscraper. There's no place else to put it, and the owners of the building certainly don't feel like tearing it down. What do you do?

There is a difference between goodbye & letting go
There is a difference between goodbye and
letting go. Goodbye is I'll see you again when
I'm ready to hold you hand, and when you're
ready to hold mine. Letting go is I'll miss your
hand. I realized it's not mine to hold, and I
will never hold it again
The Longest Bony Fish
The Longest Bony Fish
This is an oarfish - one of a group of long bony fish found in tropical and temperate waters throughout the world. One species (Regalecus glesne) is capable of reaching 17m (56ft) in length.
Lengths of up to 36ft are common, and oarfish are thought to be responsible for many sea serpent legends. They are rarely seen alive and little is known about their behavior.

Love will always find a way
In the game of love,
It doesn’t really matter who won or who lost.
When you think of your past love, you may view it as a failure.
But when you find a new love, you view the past as a teacher.
Love will always find a way. Will always win.
It doesn’t really matter who won or who lost.

But when you find a new love, you view the past as a teacher.
Love will always find a way. Will always win.
Depth Of Love
Love is not finding the right person,
but creating the right relationship.
It is not how much love we have in the beginning,
but how much love we build until the end.
Before you judge my life
Before you judge my life, my past or my character.....
Walk in my shoes, walk the path I have travelled, live my sorrow, my doubts, my fear, my pain and my laughter......
Remember.
Everyone has a story. When you've lived my life then you can judge me.
Walk in my shoes, walk the path I have travelled, live my sorrow, my doubts, my fear, my pain and my laughter......
Remember.
Everyone has a story. When you've lived my life then you can judge me.
Just because your pain is understandable ...
Just because your pain is understandable, doesn't mean your behavior is acceptable

When you face failure !!
When you face failure, people will stop believing in you. When you taste success, everyone will believe in you. You on the other hand, don't have that luxury. You have to believe in yourself, whether up or down. There is one you, and whatever the world is saying, you don't give up on that you. Ever. In failure or success, you remain your cheerleader, for life.

Sometimes We forgive people simply because we still want Them in our life...
Sometimes We forgive people simply because we still want Them in our life...
Sometimes, we have to get hurt ...
"Sometimes, we have to get hurt
to realize that we love somebody so much
whom we thought will always be at our side,
But even if we’ll just end up loosing them
still we love them all our heart."
