buy a small village



新西兰一个名为Otira 的小村庄现在因无力经营而被迫出售,如果你有足够的钱,便可买下这一个小村子,包括里面的旅店、学校、酒吧、铁路站、村镇大厅,以及这里18个居民房,甚至还有会40个居民跟着你(orz,呃当然他们不卖)。售价100万新西兰元。

# 如果你单独只要该村子里的旅店,只需要35万新西兰元。

这个村子是Bill 和Christine Hennah 于1998年购买下来的,他们当时只花了8万元,然后随着铁路的开通村子渐渐发展,鼎盛时期一共约有600名住户。

Polar aurora



通常,有太阳风暴产生的高能带电离子到达地球大气层上部时,会和氧气和氮气的原子产生碰撞,进而产生极光。极光一般出现在南极或北极,但在地球磁场的作用下极光也有可能飘移至赤道

题图这张图片是国际空间站在南印度洋上空350公里拍摄到的,它是由5月24日的太阳风暴造成的

这条以绿色为主色调的激光带弯曲盘旋,在右下角有离散的点状光分布;此外在图片中央部位也有淡红色。激光下方的积云密布,地球大气层蓝色光环清晰可见

技术上而言,大气原子在收到太阳风的带电粒子撞击后,原子在回到原来能量级的过程中会释放出光。常见的绿色极光是由氧原子释放波长为0.558微米的光造成的;红色的极光是由原子释放0.63微米的光而成

Auroras, also known as northern and southern (polar) lights or aurorae (singular: aurora), are natural light displays in the sky, particularly in the polar regions, and usually observed at night. They typically occur in the ionosphere. They are also referred to as polar auroras. This is a misnomer however, because they are commonly visible between 65 to 72 degrees north and south latitudes, which place them a ring just within the Arctic and Antarctic circles. Aurorae do occur deeper inside the polar regions, but these are infrequent and often invisible to the naked eye.

Future concept: the green floating museum



we call this floating boat "Physalia", which has half boat and half building together. It will use the green for the main colour to let people feel the important of the enviromental protection

At the same time, the scientist try to design a specil water filter in the boat which can use as like water from see or river, lake to leach to clean let people use.





This museum will show different green plants and alots of benthos, it will be so amazed to view the at marine life viewed.
