Aston One-77 Megafactories In National Geographic

Sure Aston Martin One-77 is not even a dream car for most people, with their limited production numbers and price mahoosive. However, this car is the epitome of what a British car can be hyper. It is a glorious feat of engineering. So to know the car and how it is built is a privilege for all men in the car. Now, National Geographic offers you that opportunity.

For the first time on television, latest Aston Martin production car, the One-77 will be posted on the popular National Geographic Megafactories.

Installing One-77 is in its own separate building created especially within the company's world headquarters in Gaydon, Warwickshire. Within the space of production facilities of the laboratory and distinctive in design and detail, an open plan 1,000 square meters of space m serene with its white walls and ceiling of the apartment building with four positions and a lot of specialized equipment and tools. Installation is a marked departure from a place of production of conventional cars, each car is static throughout the building, instead of progressing from one station to another.

Study shows high intelligence of the lizards

The results of a study by a group of U.S. biologists tropical lizards show share the same level of intelligence as birds and mammals.

The team from Duke University in North Carolina say their findings were "completely unexpected", according to biologist Manuel Leal, author of the study.

According to conventional scientific thinking, lizards have limited cognitive capacity compared to birds and mammals. Tropical Anolis lizard but is able to solve problems and even the skills learned to adapt to new circumstances, according to the report's findings have been published in the journal Biology Letters.

The scientists studied six Anolis lizards evermanni by making the task of locating a worm in one of the two holes. The hole that contains the worm was covered with a lid.

Four of the six lizards successfully completed the test, either by lifting the lid with the mouth or bite on the cover and then remove it. "This is a completely new way of attacking behavior," writes Brian Leal and Powell, the author of the study.

The lizards were also able to use the newly acquired strategy of opening the cover in other circumstances. When the two holes were covered with different types of tapas, lizards correctly identify the worm hole, showing that he had learned to identify the color of the lid that covered the worm.

Two of the lizards were even able to modify their newly acquired knowledge. When Leal and Powell put the worm into the hole until then had always been empty, all the lizards at first treated the wrong hole.

However, two lizards recognized the changed circumstances and found the worm in the new location.

"The ability to adapt their behavior is a sign that indicates an animal with a higher intelligence," says Harvard biologist Jonathan Losos independent.

Until now, the lizards were not among the creatures. The study authors believe the lizard Anolis learning capacity has contributed to its proliferation in the tropics.

The outbreak that shook Chile and Argentina

This handout picture released by the Chilean Air Force shows the cloud of ash billowing from Puyehue volcano near Osorno in southern Chile, 870 km south of Santiago, taken on June five, 2011. Puyehue volcano erupted for the first time in half a century on June 4th, 2011, prompting evacuations for 3,500 people as it sent a cloud of ash that reached Argentina. The National Service of Geology and Mining said the explosion that sparked the eruption also produced a column of gas ten kilometers (6 miles) high, hours after warning of strong seismic activity in the area.

The Puyehue volcano, dormant for decades, erupted in south-central Chile on Saturday. The wind carried ash across the Andes to Argentina, dusting this tourist town which had to close its airport.

On a Fiery Steed They Rides

This is either a picture of the exact moment that Devil busted out his hot rod & began tearing ass in to the apocalypse, or else poor Marty's stuck right at 87 MPH again. This photograph was taken at Serra da Leba, a landmark road in Angola, & while it has not been digitally altered, it is a long exposure taken over 60 seconds. You could cry foul that a manipulated picture should not make the list, hypothetical reader, or you could select to ponder the implications of that fact in lieu. Perhaps awful moves at a different speed than man; perhaps it is a slow & creeping thing. & possibly, in the event you weren't so rash, so impulsive - in the event you could cease & think about it for little minute - possibly you could finally trace back its fiery path.

Space Freight Cars

We have already found asteroid belts around other stars. In fact, the star Epsilon Eridani has three nested belts. NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope has been prolific at picking out the thermal signature of extraterrestrial asteroid belts.

Any growing space faring civilization would recognize asteroids as an abundant source of raw materials. They are the coal cars in a freight train of planets.

But finding asteroid belt anomalies that would convincingly point to the handiwork of space aliens would be very tricky. First, we would need to presume that the civilization was so advanced that it built -- at huge expense -- the transportation infrastructure for getting back and forth to the asteroid belt. Advanced robots would have done all the heavy lifting for mining and transporting asteroid material to space-based factories.

Forensic clues could come from identifying a chemical disequilibrium in the belt caused by the extraction of specific minerals and elements. Second, the system might look odd due to the dis assembly of its larger asteroids. Finally, large quantities of dust from mining might give the belt an unusual temperature distribution.

The researchers predict that persistent mining over long periods will artificially reduce the number of larger asteroids in the system debris. All that would be left would be pebble-sized and smaller dusty debris. No space telescope envisioned could inventory the true asteroid sizes, but differences in the dust distribution might offer clues.

Five Historic Hoaxes

Hoaxes have long been a part of history, from the ancient Greeks to modern day. In celebration of April Fool's Day, count down with us some of the greatest moments of trickery known to man.

n Halloween night, 1938, a radio broadcast of H.G. Wells' 1898 science fiction novel "The War of the Worlds" had people convinced that aliens were invading the United States. The broadcast was orchestrated by the famous Orson Welles (pictured above, answering questions from the press the following day).

Much of the show was in an "emergency bulletin" format. Those who tuned in mid-broadcast didn't recognize that they had stumbled upon a fictional show and instead thought they had tuned in just in time to hear emergency announcements that aliens were invading. Welles claimed he hadn't foreseen the hysteria.

Egyptian Artifacts Damaged

Tahrir Square outside the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. During the chaotic protests two nights before, would-be looters broke into the 108-year-old building through a skylight, according to official reports. The vandals damaged mummies and artifacts but were arrested before they could make off with anything.

Two ancient mummified heads, as yet unidentified, lie on the floor of the Egyptian Museum on Monday after the weekend attack by looters.

In the region around this 4,500-year-old tomb of an official at Abusir (pictured in an undated photo), looters allegedly broke into excavation warehouses filled with artifacts this past weekend.

crowds throng King Tut's golden funerary mask in the Egyptian Museum. The iconic piece was not among the damaged artifacts."A lot of the things that were broken off were gilded wood, so I think [the looters] were after gold,"
