This is what we would see if the planets were as close as the Moon

The universe is an extraordinary site that may offer images of unique beauty. Unfortunately, we are tiny creatures who hardly we can explore all those beauties offered outer space.

However, if the reality was another and we had the opportunity to see up close to the planets of the solar system, as we see every night the Moon, what would it be?

1. The Moon

Ron Miller

The moon, known since ancient times as a symbol for all things related to emotions, cycles, and mystery, reflects sunlight into the night sky. The full moon is thought to be an especially powerful, when emotions and tides run high. The inspirational beauty of the moon is also more evident at this time.

2. Mercury

Ron Miller

This planet inspired philosophers of old to name it as a regent of communication, trade, and friendship. Mercury, nearest planet to the sun, makes a complete orbit approximately ever 88 days. It is only slightly larger than the earth’s moon, but no less magnificent to star and planet watchers.

3.Venus

Ron Miller

Venus is the second planet from the sun, and is thought to be the earth’s twin in size, mass, and density. If you’ve heard Venus referred to as the “morning star” this is because older researchers believed Venus was in fact two stars: one that shone in the morning and one in the evening.

4. Mars

Ron Miller

It’s not difficult to understand why this large and ruddy planet was associated with the deity of war. Mars is the fourth planet from the sun. Mars was even dubbed the fire star by Chinese astronomers who noted the red planet’s vibrant color. This reddish hue is due to it’s iron rich content which lies in dust over the surface.

5. Jupiter

Ron Miller

This gas giant is the largest planet in the solar system. It’s mass is one thousandth of that of the sun. It is mostly made of hydrogen, although other gases make up it’s composition. Turbulent planetary storms have resulted in a giant red spot on the surface of this giant planet. It is orbited by 67 moons.

6. Saturn

Ron Miller

The second largest after Jupiter, Saturn is known as the ringed planet. The pale yellow planet is thought to exhibit the coloring of the ammonia crystals present in it’s atmosphere. It’s nine rings are composed of ice particles and other debris. This planet has 62 moons, only 53 of which are named.

7. Uranus

Ron Miller

While sitting seven planet from the sun, this planet is no less visually striking than our other planets. It is a newly discovered planet, being officially named in 1781 by Sir William Herschel. This planet was previously recorded in Ptolemy’s Almagest as a star. It’s name is derived from Greek mythology rather than from Roman.

8.Neptune

Ron Miller

Neptune is the 8th and furthest planet away from the sun. Out of all the gaseous planets in the solar system, Neptune is the densest. It’s blue color is created from the planet’s methane absorption of red light. This planet is also noted for it’s active and visible weather patterns, unlike some of the other hazier gaseous planets.

Curiosities

The keyboard combinations that you did not know existed!

There are several combinations on the keyboard of computers when using Word, Excel or applications such as Photoshop. Probably you know most of them, but these are not the only ones that exist. No need to have anything open Win button serves more than just to open the start menu We will show you all the combinations you can do with the start button and the variety of functions you can perform with it.

Amazing Nail Art From All Over The World

We all love accessories, having our nails done, buying ear rings new necklaces and changing our hair style occasionally. Nail art became one of the most fashionable things of the year, using different textures or just mixing the right colors.

It transformed from being called nail polishing to nail “art” as it’s a whole new way of treating our nails. It’s not only the color but it’s shape and its length which meters to this people. Is awesome how much variety these can have. Here we are going to share 20 beautiful nail art works. Hope you enjoy it!

Juicy Fruits!

Pinterest.

They remind me of sweet candy, summer and spring. I really can’t get how somebody could take care of their nails to the point where this art work can last for at least more than a week!

Nice and fine

Pinterest.

Off pink is one of the colors of the year. Check this out! I really love how the color palette works. One sparkly one and the others balancing it. I would’ve maybe changed the white one though.

Blue is the warmest color!

Google.

Matte colors are in fashion right now! Either a lipstick or in your nails. It can’t be finer. I really think matte colors can balance any outfit so it means you can’t mess up with this one girl! Try it…

Too flowery?

Pinterest.

This one took it to another level. I get it, you love flowers. But it's a bit too much. Imagine trying to grab something or even trying to put a jacket on. With this nails you must be careful and be conscious of every move you make. Definitely not for me.

Lego

Google.

These may be childish, but the idea is pretty cool - lego nails! They must have taken some time to make. These are not the worst nails in the world. However, they look a little too childish for me. Not only because of vibrant colors but for the shape of them, too geometrical. Well, like exactly like Legos.

Scorpions

Pinterest.

Just look at those, scorpions in your nails. And by scorpions we mean real scorpions, that get placed in your nails... How could you put on something dead in your nails as a “cool” thing? Wel, to each their own I suppose.

Scorpion 2.0

Google.

This one took it to another level. It’s a whole new different thing. I think it has more work into it and it looks more like a different art concept. However, it is still a bit too much for me. Especially considering the fact that you are carrying dead animals in your nails. Eeek!

Batman

Pinterest.

Dark knight fans! Here, this one’s for you. If it was only the yellow nail with the bat drawn, they wouldn’t call my attention. However, look at how the other 4 nails are cut! Great and meticulous work. Very clever.

Trolls

Google.

ADORABLE! But in your nails? Their hairs look really weird to me. Would you brush it every day when you wake up? Or you would just leave it free? The light blue is my favorite. However, this design’s not something I would probably replicate.

Roses

Pinterest.

Roses are red, violets are blue, love never crossed my mind until the day I met you! Hello floral people! I can’t figure out why I like this one, but I do. Maybe it is due to the fact that I personally like off pink nails. Whatever, that doesn’t matter. The thing is that they’re great! However, this design may make it difficult to actually use your hands.

Gummy bear nails!

Google.

OMG, THIS ONE IS JUST AMAZING! Not how it looks by itself but, the best gummy bear candies and now in your nails. I have mixed feeling with this one. It’s my favorite candy. However, I wouldn’t paste them on my nails…

Candy floss

Pinterest.

Colorful, nice and short. I think this option could be something I can possibly use. It doesn’t interfere much with what you are wearing and it doesn’t even have the vibrant colors we were seeing in the last pictures! However, what I’m asking myself is: what happens when you take a shower? I feel like they are only for some hours or perhaps you’ll need to cover them with something.

Halloween

Pinterest.

Great for a costume! But only for that. This looks a little too extreme to me. Blood looks too real and well, in the way of using your hands for everyday tasks. It gets all your hand dirty. So, it’s not something to wear everyday!

Weapon nails

Google.

OMG this doesn’t even look real but it actually is! Can you imagine how much time did its author designing this? I mean, they look too fake and like a toy to me. Something cool but not exactly for your nails.

Chinese girl

Google.

This girl took it to another level, and made little figures of herself on her nails - with her own hair included! It's definitely unique, but also weird...Narcissist like no one else, this nail artist included her own hair in her nails! She seems to love it though.

Corn fun

Google.

Some things are just to eat for a reason. This design must have taken this nail artist a long time to make, her attention to detail is quite good. It reminds me of that time when we were in preschool and we used to do use spaghetti and uncooked pasta as materials for arts and crafts time.

Pointy nails

They seem to be taken out from a Disney movie. As if maleficent from “Sleeping Beauty” had her nails done and this was the result. I personally think it’s a little too much for every day’s outfit but it’s cool for a special occasion.

Forgot something?

Google.

Not anymore with this corkboard nails. You can actually write down your “to do list” and stop forgetting everything! It’s better than a calendar. You don’t even need to take something else out, you have it right there in your own nails!Terrific.

Do you need to write something?

Google.

Perfect for school or work. If you don’t have a pen or something to write immediately, these nails are perfect for you! Just kidding, they do not paint of course. However, they look pretty colorful and cool in a way. This application is fantastic, and th is nail artist is definitely very creative and talented.

Fancy

Google.

Pink nails again! Stresses in your nails are the coolest thing now. Not only because one of them is black matte which balances the whole thing but because they are tidily painted and designed in a fine and pointy but square way. Love them!

Human Foods That Are Toxic For Dogs

Having a pet at home might seem easy, but it’s actually as hard as having a baby, not only you have to take care of them but also feed and clean them. It’s important to know what food to give them and what food can be dangerous for any dog.

Keeping your dog healthy can be a little complicated if you don’t understand what food dogs should avoid at all cost because it’s not good for them. Take a look on what foods your dog should never eat.

Coffee is terrible for your pet

Any product with caffeine can have a similar effect on your dog to chocolate and could ultimately damage its heart. So, keep your coffee away from your little friend.

Just keep caffeine away

Caffeine all contain substances called methylxanthines, which are very dangerous to a pet’s health.

Milk?!

Many dogs find it difficult to digest the lactose in milk, butter and cheese because they don’t produce enough of the enzyme, lactase.

Dairy products can cause them...

The effects can range from a mild tummy upset to an irritating skin allergy.

No grapes for the dog!

Like dried fruit, grapes are highly toxic and should be kept away from your pet.

Sorry bud!

The pips and stones of some fruits, such as apples, plums and peaches, contain a chemical called amygdalin, which can cause a digestive upset. Large fruit stones are also a choking hazard, particularly for puppies and small breeds.

Not the whole apple!

The seeds of the apple contain toxic substances. Some of the symptoms that this cause them are hyperventilation, digestive problems and shortness of breath.

Never avocado

These fleshy green fruits contain a fungicidal toxin called persin which could give your dog a digestive upset. However, it’s the large avocado stone that presents most danger because it could potentially block the gastrointestinal tract, leaving your dog requiring surgery.

Candies or chewing gum

This artificial sweetener is used in sweets, cakes, toothpaste and chewing gum and has a laxative effect on humans. For dogs, though, an excess of xylitol could prove fatal because it starts a rapid release of the hormone insulin. Too much insulin affects the amount of glucose (sugar) in your dog’s blood which, in turn, could cause seizures and affect your pet’s liver.

Yes, chocolate!

Chocolate and cocoa-based products contain a stimulating substance called theobromine which is extremely poisonous to dogs. The darker the chocolate, the greater the risk. Even a few ounces of chocolate could leave your dog with sickness, diarrhoea, dehydration, and high blood pressure, and the effect is potentially worse in small breeds.

Sorry but no ice cream

Just as candies, ice cream contains xylitol and dairy as well. The symptoms of xylitol poisoning include weakness, vomiting and a lack of coordination, and it requires urgent veterinary attention.

Neither onion

Members of the allium family as garlic, leeks and onions contain a substance called organosulfides which could affect your dog’s red blood cells, too much garlic or onion could ultimately lead to anaemia.

Not even a bit

The symptoms take a few days to appear so if your dog appears sleepy and lethargic, head straight to your vet.

No alcohol

If a dog consumes just a small amount of alcohol, it can cause vomiting, diarrhea, central nervous system depression, problems with coordination, difficulty breathing, coma and even death.

No yeast

The smell of unbaked yeasty bread dough could attract your dog’s attention but it should always be kept out of reach. If eaten, the dough could expand dangerously in your dog’s stomach, and the fermented yeast could become toxic.

Not Nuts for them!

Nuts, including almonds, pecans and walnuts, contain high amounts of oils and fats, which can cause vomiting, diarrhea and even pancreatitis in pets.

Salt it's bad

Salt, as well as salt-heavy foods like chips and pretzels, can lead to excessive thirst and urination, and even sodium ion poisoning in pets. Some signs that your pet may have consumed too much salt include, vomiting, diarrhea, depression, tremors, elevated body temperature, seizures and even death.

Raw eggs!

Raw meat and eggs can often contain bacteria such as Salmonella and E. coli, which can be harmful to both pets and humans. According to the ASPCA, raw eggs also ‘contain an enzyme called avidin that decreases the absorption of biotin (a B vitamin), which can lead to skin and coat problems.’

Small bones are dangerous

Contrary to popular opinion, bones are bad for dogs. Not only can they potentially choke your dog, they can cause blockages in the gut, intestinal damage and chipped or broken teeth. Dental chews are a great way to assist oral health.

Foods with Xylitol

Xylitol is a type of artificial sweetener found in many sugar-free products, like gum and candy, as well as some nut butters like peanut butter. Xylitol can cause insulin release, which can lead to liver failure, seizures and brain damage.

26 Pictures that will change the way you think of the universe

When you are looking at your place on planet Earth, you might think that you have quite a niche carved out for yourself. There are many ways to look at how much expanse we have on this Earth. It would be impossible to see everything, but we live in a universe that is filled with things that you cannot possibly imagine unless you look at the pictures yourself.

Imagen de la NASA Goddard Space Flight Center / Via visibleearth.nasa.gov

This is Earth. This is where we live, and it is a pretty large place. However, we need to put that size into perspective. The Earth seems like a fairly large planet to us, but it is much smaller than we think.

The Solar System

Via foxnews.com

This is where the Earth fits into the solar system. You can see that it fits neatly into all the other planets. They almost are arranged by size, and we have a spot just for ourselves.

NASA

This is how far the moon is from the Earth. It is a little farther than you thought, is it not? Keep that in mind when you look up at night and notice that the moon has taken its nightly shape.

2

PerplexingPotato / Via reddit.com

Unfortunately, all the planets could fit between the Earth and the moon. That is frightening. Imagine looking up and seeing Jupiter in the sky and taking it all up when you look in the sky. It is so big that is could easily block sunlight, too.

Let’s talk about size…

NASA / John Brady / Via astronomycentral.co.uk

That is where North America fits on Jupiter. It does not look so big now, and it appears that our place in the universe is rather small. In fact, our planet could not seem much smaller.

3

NASA / John Brady / Via astronomycentral.co.uk

The rings of Saturn alone are as wide as that many Earths. You would be amazed at how large and rocky those rings are. They look nice from here, but they are massive when you consider them in this light.

Ron Miller / Via io9.com

This is what the rings of Saturn would look like if they were around the Earth. Could you imagine those standing out in the sky at night? You would always have something to look at when you peered into the sky.

5

Matt Wang / Via mentalfloss.com

That is a comet. Yes, that is a comet landing on a city. You might wish upon them when they fly in the sky, but they are not that nice when they compare to a city. Los Angeles looks like a tiny town, isn’t?

Our tiny Sun, say Hi!

This is how pitifully small the Earth is in comparison to the sun. It is a good thing that we are so far from the sun or we would be toast. Look at how big that thing is!

Maybe, the most famous photo of the 20Th.

NASA

This is the view of the Earth from the Moon. You can see pretty clearly that the Earth is not all that big when you are so far away, but it is a nice view for a lunar lander.

NASA

That is the Earth from Mars. That is quite a way when you consider how small the Earth looks. The view can get even more distant if you back up into the solar system a little bit more.

7

NASA

This is the view of the Earth from Saturn, and that is how far away the worm hole was when they traveled all the way there in Interstellar. The farther you get from the Earth, it appears to be a blip and not a planet full of life.

NASA

Now you are looking at the Earth from the edge of the solar system. That is just the edge of the solar system and we appear to be an insignificant speck in the universe. It is possible that we are a speck.

9

John Brady / Via astronomycentral.co.uk

This is the view from behind the sun. This is what is looks like when light leaves the Sun and makes its way to Earth to warm us and give up daytime. Sunlight travels even farther than you thought to give us daylight.

NASA

The soft sunlight from a distant planet. You can get the light from anywhere and the sun is much more powerful than you think it is. Just imagine sitting on another planet and still being bathed by the sun.

There are more stars in the sky than there are grains of sand on Earth. Just let that sink in for a minute before you continue. That is a a lot of stars, and they will likely never be counted.

12

Via en.wikipedia.org

That is the largest star that we can observe. It is so large that it makes our own sun look small. If you think about how big the sun is in comparison to the Earth, that is quite a large source of light.

13

Vía youtube.com

Now look at the Earth in comparison to this largest star. This is something that is hard to imagine. Think of a light source that big in the sky, it would be quite scary. You would be able to see the flames jumping off the surface of the star.

Vía reddit.com

If we could reduce the sun up to the size of a white blood cell and shrink The Milky Way, using the same scale, this is how would look. The sun is just one cell in the solar system, but the solar system is more like America. It is only one of many. We just happen to live in it, but there are many more out there.

15

Vía teecraze.com

There we are in the solar system. The Milky Way is pretty big, and it is hard to imagine how you would be able to see the Earth from this far away. We are swallowed up by the light created by all the stars in the galaxy.

16

(This picture is not the Milky Way, but you got a idea)Vía Twitter: @lucybrockle

Every star you can see at night only fits inside the galaxy. You cannot see light from outside the circle, and that is something you need to think about in the scope of the universe that we live in.

17

Vía Twitter: @smokeinpublic

Our galaxy is pretty pitiful in comparison to other galaxies out there. Just look at how big some of the them are. Could you imagine our huge world being in a place of that size? The galaxy dwarfs us.

18

That is a telescopic image of another galaxy. It is so bright that we cannot see any of the planets or stars inside of it individually. The galaxy is so full of stars and light that you could never get a clear image.
