Germany Opens Bicycle Superhighway

Germany is taking its well-known Autobahn to an entire new level by making one for cyclists and put its pedals where its mouth is and opened its first bicycle-only highway, a three-mile stretch of protected roadway that is closed to cars and other motor vehicles. They are on the way to build a 100km long super highway for bicycles only, and bike-lovers can already cycle the first five kilometers. Therefore, the highway will eventually connect 10 western cities including Duisburg, Bochum and Hamm. 

Moreover it will be built along abandoned railroad tracks in Ruhr industrial region. According to Martin Toennes of regional development group RVR, about 2 million people living in the area will be able to travel on this route, which should result in 50,000 cars less on the roads every day. Europe’s first bicycle highway was well approved in London earlier this year, and others are in the works in the Holland and Denmark.

A Mysterious 800-year-old mobile phone was left behind by ALIENS in Austria

 According to latest absurd claims of conspiracy theorists says, an ‘800-year-old mobile phone’ was left behind by ALIENS in Austria. It seems very strange claims that archaeologists have discovered an 800-year-old mobile phone have sent conspiracy forums into overdrive.  The bizarre object allegedly is thought to be a clay model of a mobile phone with cuneiform writing engraved on the keys. However the insufficient information on the dig, and the objects resemblance to a Nokia mobile phone, has led various people to brand it an “elaborate hoax”.

Therefore, some UFO hunters who are making outlandish claims that this is proof aliens once visited Earth, or that it could prove that time travel does exist. According to reports, during archaeological excavations at Fuschl am See, in Salzburg, Austria, explorer discover a strange artefact from the thirteenth century with cuneiform writing that strangely resembles a cell phone. Because, such type of writing is usually found in modern-day Iran or Iraq ancient Mesopotamia. Thus, what a device like this with Cuneiform writing is doing in Austria is amazing that no one is able to fully understand or explain. Moreover, the information about this “sensational” discovery is limited. Therefore, no one knows about this strange object or even explains it, perhaps it is real or not but it is confirmed that this has caught huge attention.  

Hence, the inadequate information online, and the fact that any object with ancient cuneiform script could end up in Austria, has caused hardened conspiracy theorists to doubt the discovery. However, Conspiracy theorists say that there have been more than a few discoveries of out-of-place archaeological artifacts that challenge history. Scott Waring, editor of UFO Sighting Daily, however, is convinced this is evidence of aliens visiting ancient civilizations on Earth. No doubt it is evident from this cell phone like gadget that someone with an advanced knowledge of the future created it. The language is said to go back tens of thousands of year indeed very cool discovery.

Moreover, Edgar Mitchell the sixth man to walk on the moon says high-ranking military sources witness alien ships hovering during weapons tests. The UFOs were seen during the world's first nuclear weapons test which took place on July 16, 1945 in the desolate White Sands deserts of New Mexico. Thus, he claimed our technology is not nearly as sophisticated' as theirs and 'had they been hostile, he warned we would be been gone by now.

Magnificent Photo Shots Captures Man Flinging a Thermos of Hot Tea in Subzero Temperatures

Well, taking full advantage of the plummeting winter temperatures and armed with a thermos of hot tea, Michael Davies whose Ontario-based photographer and his friend Markus set out to depict some majestic photographs.

Moreover the winter season in this remote northern town is extremely cold and dark, frequently with only a few hours of sunlight between sunrise and sunset. The spectacular photo shots were well planned, as Michel Davies tracked the temperature and took into account the angles, lighting, wind direction and speed in order to capture the superb photograph.

Exceptionally Rare Multicolored Bird Sighting in New York Attracts Crowds of Avian Enthusiasts

Well, nature is fully covered with beautiful things. No matter whatever things on planet earth, everything is beautiful and playing their role. Just like a particularly rare sightings of a male Painted Bunting in Brooklyn, New York's Prospect Park are ruffling the feathers of bird fanatics everywhere. The beautiful avian is naturally found around Florida and Texas, spending winters in Mexico; very very rarely does it come as far north as New York. In fact, according to data on record, this is the “first male Painted Bunting that’s ever had a recorded visit to Brooklyn” making sightings of this little guy about as common as catching a glimpse of a unicorn.

Therefore, this explains why the little fellow is causing hundreds of bird watchers and avian lovers to flock to the park, in hopes of a valuable look as his colorful plumage. It is most likely that a wind blew him up north, and he was tempted to stay due to the unusually warm November the city experienced. Therefore, with his vivid blue head and bright yellow shoulders that fade into a delicate green, the Painted Bunting is an extremely beautiful well deserving of the celebrity status he has gained in New York. 

The World’s Largest Radio Telescope

 China begins testing world's largest radio telescope as construction of the £124 MILLION project enters final stage of completion, measuring 500 metres in diameter, being put through its paces with a dry run. The project name is called 'FAST' which stands for “Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Telescope” the device is being constructed in Guizhou Province, south-west China. The project has taken more than five years to build world's biggest single-aperture radio telescope which covers above the size of 30 football pitches and is presently running on schedule. Scientists carried out the last stages with hopes for a September 2016 completion.

Moreover, Chinese authorities and engineers tested important component inside the gigantic telescope before it goes live indefinitely. Thusa, a mechanism that weighs more than 30,000 kilograms and is suspended 160 metres above the reflector dish, which is still unfinished, and the reflector dish will collect up signals from the whole universe. The project was first proposed in 2003, as body of telescope measuring 500 meters across. Therefore, the huge dish is made up of more than 4,500 mostly triangular panels and its side panels measure 11 metres long, the motion of these panels alter the collective shape of the antenna. The new antenna is adept of reflecting radio signals from the universe to a focal point, where the receiver dome sits.

The design of the telescope is not too much difficult to understand, it is very similar to a TV antenna: “FAST” is similar to any television antenna on a roof, but it is so much larger that. Some astronomers predict it will not be long before new discoveries are found because of the advanced technology of FAST and also expect it to find unidentified stars in the Milky Way other more distant thousands of galaxies in different environments in the local universe. After the completion of its detection, FAST is expected to maintain world-class status for the next 20-30 years. Moreover, the massive radio telescope will cost about 1.2 billion Yuan (£124 million), making it the biggest astronomy project China has ever had. The remoteness of the location also protects the surrounding landscape from any damage.
