Amazing Story of Dog That Survived Tsunami For Three Weeks!

In the tragic aftermath of Japan's disaster, this heart-warming story surfaces.




A full 3 weeks after a devasting earthquake and resulting tsunami hit Japan, coast guards spotted a dog on a floating roof a little over a mile and a half out to sea. The canine had been washed out to sea, floating on the island of debris off the coast of Kesennuma in northern Japan, according to the Telegraph.
How exactly the dog survived is unknown. It also was missing any sort of collar.
The find was a bright spot for the rescuers, who have been a part of a 3 day rescue mission with U.S. workers to find the 18,000 people still missing, wrote the Telegraph.
The coast guard hopes the dog will lead them to its owner, according to MSNBC.

Amazing Meteor Geminids Strike Earth!

It's that time of the year again when the Earth gets sandblasted by the tiny fragments of an ancient asteroid. Yes, it's the Geminids and tonight is the night when the meteorshower will peak.Last night, at 2am, I went outside in the hope of spotting one or two shooting stars. Fortunately, due to my late-night working habits, I was able to be outside when the meteor "radiant" was pretty much directly above. The radiant is a point in the night sky where the meteors appear to be showering from. This time of the year, that radiant is centered around the constellation of Gemini (hence the "Geminids").

Amazing Story of New Aurora Pictures: Sky Shows Sparked by Sun Eruption

 Pictures: Sky Shows Sparked by Sun Eruption

Sparked by charged particles that had been ejected by the sun three days earlier, an aurora borealis streaks into view in the wee hours of September 15 over Ersfjord, Norway. The same night, similar shows enlivened skies over northern Canada and elsewhere in Europe.

When a charged-particle cloud enters the upper atmosphere of Earth, it smashes into and breaks up gas molecules, creating the northern lights (or in the Southern Hemisphere, the southern lights).
"Like gas inside a neon sign, as the atoms smash together they begin to glow—producing a great light show," Manuel said.
The colors a sky-watcher sees depends on what type of gas is being hit and how high it is. For example, the green aurora pictured was the result of oxygen-atom collisions about 60 to 120 miles (100 to 200 kilometers) up.
