NASA recently released imagery showing the deforestation of America  …in just 34 years.
I really hope these images are just shopped; they don’t seem very proportionate. I’m sure this isn’t far from the truth though.

I originally found this awesome bit of work put together in GIF format, but decided to break it down frame by frame to allow you to read it at your own pace. Epic is such a cliche phrase to use, but I honestly can’t think of another word to describe this. I Wonder how or if the human race will survive to be able to witness the end of our great planet? You can view the original full size GIF here.

If you have ever wondered why there was so much hoopla when scientists predict solar flares then this video will put them in pretty big perspective. When common flares are 30 times the size of Earth, it is no wonder why satellites and anything else in Earth’s orbit isn’t safe!

If you were lucky, this morning you may have seen an amazing large red Moon as the Moon fell into Earth’s shadow. West Coast Americans got the best view and the the further east you go the less visible it became. The best views came from Australia and the Pacific Ocean. Luckily, there were plenty of pictures taken. Here are 12 courtesy of Twitter:














Space.com also posted a great infographic explaining how the eclipse works.


Find out what makes the moon turn dark and red in this SPACE.com infographic.


If you missed it, the next chance to view a partial lunar eclipse is June 04, 2012.

A few days ago I posted a graphic that was meant more to be funny, but at the same time it was a cool way to show just how small we really are. Well, if that picture wasn’t clear enough these will be. To sum it up - we’re pretty small. If these aren’t big enough then click here to see a huge version.
