In The Shadow
"The robotic Cassini spacecraft now orbiting Saturn drifted in giant planet's shadow for about 12 hours in 2006 and looked back toward the eclipsed Sun. Cassini saw a view unlike any other. First, the night side of Saturn is seen to be partly lit by light reflected from its own majestic ring system.... Saturn's rings light up so much that new rings were discovered."NASA

Washed Away
This footage of the Tsunami hitting the Japan streets is too stunning not to share.
"A six-minute video taken from the street as the tsunami literally washes a town away. James MacWhyte, an American living in Tokyo, posted this video to Facebook."
"I want to show everyone the news media we are being presented with here in Japan," he wrote. "I think it's quite different from what you see on CNN and other Western news outlets. One thing about Japan—there are professional cameramen EVERYWHERE!"

Describing the Sun
“A Line Describing the Sun features a new two-channel video and sculpture created in the Mojave Desert earlier this year. Begun at the Center for Land Use Interpretation’s artist-in-residence program in Wendover, Utah, Lamson finished the project in a dry lakebed west of Barstow, California. The video and sculpture are both a record of two day-long performances in which the artist follows the sun with a large Fresnel lens mounted on a rolling apparatus. The lens focuses the sun into a 1,600-degree point of light that melts the dry mud, transforming it into a black glassy substance.”

Collision
The Antennae galaxies, located about 62 million light years from Earth, are shown in this composite image from the Chandra X-ray Observatory (blue), the Hubble Space Telescope (gold), and the Spitzer Space Telescope (red).The collision, which began more than 100 million years ago and is still occurring, has triggered the formation of millions of stars in clouds of dusts and gas in the galaxies. The most massive of these young stars have already sped through their evolution in a few million years and exploded as supernovas.

Little Drifters
Booooooom! & The Vancouver Sun have sponsored a great project called Little Drifters. Participant were to gather pieces of driftwood, twigs, leaves, berries, dandelions, pine cones, feathers, pretty much anything that can be considered 'natural.' (No plastic, metal or paper, etc.) They then construct a little boat using only these natural materials. They met up at Trout Lake, in Vancouver and let their creations set sail.
Inclusive
Inclusive Studio, created by Raúl Goñi intends to make us perceive natural spaces of all kinds not only with the sense of view, but touch, smell and greatly with the ear.
