Pictured here is a 1904 proposal for an Imperial Monumental Hall and Tower in London.
The main feature of the proposal was a 167 meter Gothic tower, which dominates the surroundings.
A love poem dating back 4,000 years, inscribed in the Iraqi Assyrian language, written by a farmer girl to her shepherd lover.
According to Dr. Andrew Georgeโs reading, the poem says:
โSearch for me until you find meโ
I am in the wilderness, wearied by swallowing thorns
And now I shall plant a vine
And the burning traces within me have been flooded with water
So take me as you cherish your little lambs
And care for me as you care for your herd
And search for me
Until you find me
Why are there no green stars?
As they burn hotter, stars shift:
red โ orange โ yellow โ white โ blue...
But green?
Never! This stunning animation shows the blackbody physics trick; our eyes see white when the peak hits green.
