Sideffect... Posted December 29, 2012 Posted December 29, 2012 Post interesting rare/unique facts that you think people (or almost) never heard about, and probably got highlighted because of the internet activity of today, otherwise not... not to much alien stuff and ufo's, latest daily news etc... Some Phenomenal natural landscapes for example. And feel free to debate, See how it goes! Just crossed on this fact some time ago, Imo stunning! Here's an aerial photograph of Lake Hillier in Western Australia, glowing in Pepto Bismol pink. The water in the region gets its distinctive pink color from a combination of a green algae, halobacteria and brine prawn. Quote

Padmapani Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 can you take these ecological systems which have evolved on a planetary scale and stick them in such an incredibly small container with disproportionate amounts of atmosphere, soil, water, ocean... and have these same principles basically function. we can take these animals and systems and stick them in an incredibly small container and it still works.
