At random: When the nuclear powered submarine USS SEADRAGON surfaced at the North Pole while charting the Northwest passage in August 1960, the crew organized a baseball game. Because of Polar time differences, when a batter clouted a home run it would land in either the next day or in 'yesterday'.

Neat!!!

Some of those crystals and bugs remind me of some of the "black-light" posters I had as a kid!

Gonna make great additions to my screen-saver images file.

That is neat. I always like looking at the monsters chewing around inside of me. What I also found interesting was one of the pages on the right, which shows sizes and distances. You can click on any litttle box and it wil show you what is out there at that distance or any of the objects floating on the screen can be clicked on and learned about. The negative numbers are the small ones like single -elctron trnsistors and other things. It takes a little while before the scaled map or yardstick comes up, but it is really interesting.
