The Tropical Islands resort, just south of Berlin, Germany, is an old abandoned aircraft hangar that was transformed into an indoor water park. The theme park, which is 66,000 square feet in size, includes several swimming pools, a four-story tall water slide, a tropical lagoon, themed cabins (including modern and adventure-themed rooms), medicinal saunas and steam baths, a mud bath spa, a meditation room, and the largest indoor rain forest in the world. Buildings are created in the styles of several different cultures, including southeast Asian, Spanish, Native American, Brazilian, Cambodian, and Australian Aboriginie.

WWF Australia Showing the View of the Reef from a Turtle’s Point of View.

A GoPro was secured to the back of the Sea Turtle as part of a campaign to raise awareness for the declining health of the Great Barrier Reef.

The reef is UNESCO listed and although passed without the “in danger” title, pollution and human development are steering the reef toward this direction in the next couple of years.

The GoPro was eventually shaken off by the Turtle and was collected by divers.

The Infrared Universe - NASA’s Spitzer Space Telescope

NASA’s Spitzer Space Telescope celebrated its 12th anniversary with the release of a new digital calendar showcasing some of the best pictures taken by the telescope. The images above demonstrate the Spitzer space telescope’s amazing infrared imaging abilities. These images include Nebulae, Galaxies, Super Nova, and much more. Though the calendar is now outdated, it still has a lot of great science information (and cool images). Check the credit for links!
