A very strange eclipse saw by Japanesse Spacecraft on the Moon
Did you know that last month was a Solar Eclipse?Did you see it?Me either but you couldn't see it because it wasn't visible anywhere on the Earth because, Earth was the "Solar Problem".
The Solar eclipse was recorded by some Japanese robots send out of space for research.They named the eclipse - "Diamond ring Eclipse" because it creates the impression of a diamond ring.
This strange eclipse is very rare and it has been saw by humans only for 3 times.
An American lunar lander got a blurry snapshot of a solar eclipse in 1967, and two years later Apollo 12 astronauts got treated to the same thing on their way back from the moon.
The Kaguya, or Selene, probe was traveling from the dark to the light side of the moon on Feb. 9.
The sun rose over the moon's surface, as usual, but on Feb. 9 it was just a thin ring surrounding darkness.

2009 a great year for movies?
We all know that 2008 was a great year for movies and many interesting ones had made us laugh, cry or they had introduce us to a greater SF world, one that was far better than we had experienced years ago, but the real question is if 2009 will be a better year for movies than 2008 or at least as good as 2008?
I really hope that this year, 2009 we will enter in a new era of movies with better effects and better action.
For 2009 are already announced some movies that were very famous at the BOX Office like Fast and Furious and Iron Man and of course Transformers.
Talking about the past experience with those movies I could say that they will make quite a history in US Box Office.
We shouldn't forget Spider Man, a movie that has managed to combine romance and action with drama in a perfect mode and create a piece of art, one that can be compared with other.The action will be quite different in this 4th part because there have been many changes with the main characters and of course many more will emerge.
All of those movies have no trailer in progress so I will come with a modification later when they will be done.
Harry Potter...yeah Harry Potter is one of the most wanted at the BOX Office for 2009 too.The little wizard is now in big fight with Voldemort, "The King Of Dark Magic" and he is building an army to conquer the world and create war and disorder.
Of course, Harry is the one who has the power to stop him or not :D we will see this in the 6th part of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince.
Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince Official Trailer High Quality
In this part, Harry and his friends increase their powers and magic influence to have the power to defend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and the Magic World.
It seems like J.K. Rolling thoughts that the 7th part of the movie should be longer than 2 hours and generate a double dose for the fans of Harry Potter and it seems like Daniel Radcliffe is very happy about this.
At first it was about making just 4 movies based on J.K Rolling books but because of his success, they will continue to the 7th part.

Christian Faur The Crayon Artist
Christian Faur, an artist from Granville, Ohio has developed a new and weird art creation tool and actually is not that unusual for many artists.He uses Crayons to create his art, now you will say that I'm crazy because I think this is weird but he uses crayons literally to build his art.
Actually, Christian uses thousands of colored crayons as pixels to paint faces or objects.His creations are really amazing thinking about how much time he spend on only one piece of art but he still thinks about the passion that he feels when he create them, the passion that leads him to a greater piece of art every day.
My earliest memories of making art involve the use of wax crayons. I can still remember the pleasure of opening a new box of crayons: the distinct smell of the wax, the beautifully colored tips, everything still perfect and unused. Using the first crayon from a new box always gave me a slight pain. Through a novel technique that I have developed, I again find myself working with the familiar form of the crayon.
Christian Faur
As an artist, his thoughts are deeper than an ordinary man so he thinks that the study of nature and the time he has spend in nature has determined him to developed this art style.
The originality of his art has made quite an impression over the world but he's still modest and dedicated to his work.
You can read more about his work and see his art on his official website ChristianFaur.com .
