Imagining the Tenth Dimension

The following Youtube video is a thought provoking look at the way the dimensional layers work. I think it is very well explained and although not the accepted explanation of string theory is certain very interesting and well worth a watch.

Sunlight Around The World

I love this web page, it displays a world map showing current sunlight and cloud cover. It is updated hourly and I think it looks amazing.
You can find it here: Sun Light - hemispherical projection.

Everything is relative

I've been a little out of it lately, a lot has happened I guess. I felt the need to remind myself of how much human society matters in life's scheme, so I decided to look at the Powers of Ten website.

"Powers of Ten explores the relative size of things from the microscopic to the cosmic. The 1977 film travels from an aerial view of a man in a Chicago park to the outer limits of the universe directly above him and back down into the microscopic world contained in the man's hand. Powers of Ten illustrates the universe as an arena of both continuity and change, of everyday picnics and cosmic mystery. The film also demonstrates the Eameses' ability to make science both fascinating and accessible."

The following YouTube videos further explain the Powers of Ten:

This first video is a short film by Charles and Ray Eames for IBM: 'dealing with the relative size of things in the universe, and the effect of adding another zero'.

This video is a clip from the Imax film "Cosmic Voyage" with commentary by Morgan Freeman. It's not very good on the small screen, but you'll get the idea. Also it repeats, yet I didn't mind watching it twice ;)

And lastly the Simpson's opening sequence, a homage to IBM's Powers of Ten.

Science vs. Faith

I found this image while looking around today, and although I don't normally do this, I felt that it was worth sharing. I hope you enjoy it too!
