| Huston, we have a problem |
Imagine you are an astronaout. Great dude, riding the blast missles, curently cruising around 7th moon of the Saturn, examining the life species that were collected hours ago. Need to dress up, and when you done you notice that one of the spiders from the species chamber is missing. You hate spiders. And you casually look inside your helmet!
"Huston, we have a problem" is a famous sentence from the Apollo 13 the movie.
Apollo 13 was the third American-manned lunar-landing mission, part of the Apollo program. Two days after launch, the Apollo spacecraft was crippled by an explosion, causing the Service Module portion of the Apollo Command/Service Module to lose its oxygen and electrical power. The crew used the Lunar Module as a “lifeboat” in space. The command module systems remained functional, but were deactivated to preserve its capability to reenter Earth’s atmosphere upon return to the earth. The crew endured difficult conditions due to severe constraints on power, cabin heat, and drinkable water, but successfully returned to Earth.
That was for real, not just in the movie.

| Starwars Bush |
Not "In a galaxy far far away..." But here.
Star Wars is a science fantasy saga and fictional galaxy created by writer / producer / director George Lucas during the 1970s. The saga began with the film Star Wars (later retitled Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope), which was released on May 25, 1977, by 20th Century Fox. The film became a worldwide pop culture phenomenon - spawning five more feature films, three spin-off films, five television series and an extensive collection of licensed books, comics, video games, action figures, trading cards, card games, and other products - all of which are set within a fictional "galaxy far, far away."

| Space babies |
Talks between The Fédération Aéronautique Internationale (FAI) and The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has began, to send the first baby in space. All the preparation is completed, here is the shot from the press conference held before the flight.
One of the questions there was: - Are you the first baby in space?
The baby simply replyed: - Yes. Yes I am (that was translated from: Gu. Gu guga.)
But is this the first baby in space?
The truth is out there.
An astronaut, cosmonaut is a person who travels into space, or who makes a career of doing so. The criteria for determining who has achieved human spaceflight vary (see edge of space). In the United States, people who travel above an altitude of 80 kilometres (50 miles) are designated as astronauts. The FAI defines spaceflight as over 100 kilometres (62 miles). As of September 9, 2006, a total of 454 humans have reached space according to the U.S. definition, 448 people qualify under the FAI definition, while 444 people have reached Earth orbit or beyond. 24 astronauts have completely left the Earth's Orbit. These individuals have spent over 29,000 crew-days (or a cumulative total of over 77 years) in space including over 100 crew-days of spacewalks. Astronauts from at least 35 countries have gone into space. The U.S. awards astronaut wings to those who fly into space on their rockets.

| Having Trouble with Nature? |
Having trouble with your local volcano? Here's an ingenious sollution to your problem, hopefully you have a cork factory in your town.
A volcano is a rupture in the earth's surface or crust, allowing hot, usually molten rock, ash, and gases originating deep below the surface to periodically escape. Volcanic activity involving the extrusion of rock tends to form mountains or mountain-like features over time. And volcanos are defenitley not to be played with!
Droughts can also be helped very easily, you just need some thread and a lot of patience.
Conceptually, there are four main types of drought:
Meteorological drought is brought about when there is a prolonged period with less than average precipitation. Meteorological drought usually precedes the other kinds of drought.
Agricultural drought is brought about when there is insufficient moisture for crop or range production. This condition can arise, even in times of average precipitation, owing to soil conditions or agricultural techniques.
Physiological drought is a condition afflicting plants that have been exposed to too much salt, preventing them from absorbing water from soil. It is not related to climatological drought.
Hydrological drought is brought about when the water reserves available in sources such as aquifers, lakes, and reservoirs falls below the statistical average. This condition can arise, even in times of average (or above average) precipitation, when increased usage of water diminishes the reserves.

| Liberty Upskirt |
For all those noughty boys that like to sneak a little peak under the skirt
Learn something while you're here:
Liberty Enlightening the World (La Liberté Éclairant Le Monde), known more commonly as the Statue of Liberty, is a statue given to the United States by France in 1885, standing at Liberty Island in the mouth of the Hudson River in New York Harbor as a welcome to all visitors, immigrants, and returning Americans. The copper statue, dedicated on October 28, 1886, commemorates the centennial of the United States and is a gesture of friendship between the two nations. The sculptor was Frederic Auguste Bartholdi. Alexandre Gustave Eiffel, the designer of the Eiffel Tower, engineered the internal structure. Eugène Viollet-le-Duc was responsible for the choice of copper in the statue's construction and adoption of the Repoussé technique. The Statue of Liberty is one of the most recognizable icons of the U.S. worldwide,[1] and, in a more general sense, represents liberty and escape from oppression. The Statue of Liberty was, from 1886 until the Jet age, often the first glimpse of the United States for millions of immigrants after ocean voyages from Europe. In terms of visual impact, the Statue of Liberty appears to draw inspiration from il Sancarlone or the Colossus of Rhodes.
