Photograph by Nick Caloyianis
A diver films a Greenland shark beneath the Arctic ice.
"'It rose up and hovered near me in an almost vertical position...When I saw its mouth starting to open, I got concerned.' But there is no record of Greenland sharks ever attacking humans, and a nudge with a strobe light sent this one into retreat."

Cape Canaveral, Florida, 1968
Photograph by Otis Imboden
A weather satellite launched in 1968 promised to help track clouds on Earth. Even with the technological advances of the past four decades, predicting what will happen in the 20-mile-deep (32-kilometer-deep) blanket of air that contains all of Earth's weather proves to be a fiendishly complex task.

1968年Otis Imboden摄于 佛罗里达 卡纳维拉尔角
一颗用于追踪云层的气象卫星按预定被发射升空，即便是用比过去四十年更为先进的科技来预测地面到空中20英里的气象，也是难搞且复杂的任务。20英里这个高度内，包括了地球上所有天气情况。

Washington, D.C., Date Unknown
Photograph by Sam Kittner
A large menorah stands before the Washington Monument in honor of Hanukkah, the Jewish festival of lights. The nine-branched Hanukkah menorah commemorates the Miracle of the Oil, when, during the rededication of the Temple of Jerusalem, one day's worth of consecrated candle oil lasted eight days.
Hanukkah is an eight-day holiday which begins on the 25th day of Kislev, the ninth month of the Hebrew calendar. In 2006, Hanukkah will begin at sundown on December 15.

Sam Kittner摄于华盛顿特区 日期不明
一个大型的祭祀烛台（menorah）为了庆祝光明节（Hanukkah，或CHanukah），而竖在华盛顿纪念碑1前，这是犹太民族庆祝光明来临的节日。这种九岔光明节祭祀烛台，纪念的是那些神奇的烛油，当年，2在耶路撒冷(Jerusalem)圣殿内，重新燃起献予神明的烛火时，明明只够一天烧的烛油，却整整亮了八天。
光明节是一个持续八天的节日，在基斯勒浮（Kislev）月的第二十五天，这个是希伯来历法（犹太历）的第九个月份。而在今年，光明节将从12月15号的日落开始。

1华盛顿方尖碑，1884年建成，为了纪念美国第一个总桶，乔治，华盛顿。之所以要提出来讲，是因为，方尖碑是古埃及人的一种纪念碑的形式，老美就这么简单的照抄了一下，当年资讯闭塞，老百姓被懵的不轻。现在要告诉大家，方尖碑是古埃及的建筑。
2公元前165年，犹太将领夺回了耶路撒冷，在犹太圣殿中燃起烛火，供奉神灵，结果发现只有够一天使用的蜡烛油了，可就是这么点蜡烛油，奇迹般的持续燃亮了八天，而光明节就是因此而来。
