Killer Whale hitting the beach to hunt - Orcs (Orcinus Orca) who live in groups have developed many hunting techniques. Perhaps one of the most extraordinary is the voluntary failure to catch young sea lions. This technique is used by the group of Mel (a male 9m) in peninsule Valdes. An Orca is coming on land to hunt sea lions. Valdes Peninsula, Argentina

Exploring the Moon in the 21st Century - Illustration - Lunar exploration in the 21st century - Astronauts are preparing a rover teleguide to drill the surface of the Moon to find exploitable resources. In the background, a permanent habitat allowing astronauts to live several weeks in this hostile environment. Lunar prospectors prepare a remote-controlled rover for exploring and drilling into the regolith in search of exploitable resources. Immediately behind the prospectors is a self-contained habitat with room and resources enough to sustain four people for several weeks. On the left and nearer to the horizon is the landing craft that delivered the four prospectors to the moon's surface, and will later return them to lunar orbit to meet with an orbiting command ship or tug. The habitat is also a lunar lander that delivered itself autonomously prior to the arrival of the prospectors. This century will likely see our return to Earth's Moon

Spaceship Tug and Space Station - Artist's View - Trans-Lunar space tug and the International Space Station - A towing spaceship joins the International Space Station (ISS) to bring material to the Moon. A trans-lunar space tug departs the International Space Station (ISS)* in preparation for retrieving a lunar lander currently in Earth orbit. What might be mistaken for wings are in fact solar voltaic panels for converting sunlight into electricity, just like those that adorn the ISS. Over two hundred miles below is the Atlantic Ocean, the Canary Islands, and the west coast of Saharan Africa. Long clouds of dust can be seen blowing westward off Morocco. If advances in astronautical engineering continue and lunar exploration becomes a regular activity it may become cost-effective to place a dedicated space tug into permanent orbit. Such a craft could serve the same purpose as the Apollo Command Modules did in the 1970s - ferrying astronauts and lunar landers between Earth orbit and lunar orbit - with the exception that this space tug could make the trip multiple times. suggestion only

Anglo-Australian Observatory (AAO) - Australia - The Anglo - Australian Observatory (AAO) - AAT dome. At the edge of the spectacular Warrumbungle National Park in northwestern New South Wales stands the Siding Spring Observatory. Of all the telescopes operated on this mountain, the dome of the AAT is the most imposing, rising almost 50 meters from the ground. The lower, cylindrical portion houses offices, darkrooms, small workshops and the many pieces of equipment required for the efficient operation of a large optical telescope and its complex instruments. The upper, rotating hemispherical portion is the dome itself, within which the telescope resides protected from the elements. When the telescope is in use a small opening in the dome is positioned directly in front of it
