Alaska Jellyfish

These jellyfish at the Alaska Sea Life Center in Seward, Alaska were so beautiful and graceful. I never got the perfect photo because they were moving too quickly in the dark water to get clear focus, but the short video clips turned out pretty nicely.

The water sounds are added. We couldn't hear any water noises through the aquarium glass, and I doubt that they make any noise, anyway. However, the ambient noise in the room was distracting and I thought that adding something more appropriate than music would be soothing.

Moon Society Creates Space Solar Power Demo

The Moon Society (see Blog Links For Curious Minds at right) created a demonstration project for the National Space Society Conference at the end of May, working from an original design by LTC Peter A. Garretson, USAF. For more information and photos, see this link, or, if invisible, check the links at right.
