World's Deepest Fresh Water Lake - BAIKAL.

Lake Baikal, the world's oldest and deepest freshwater lake, curves for nearly 400 miles through south-eastern Siberia, north of the Mongolian border. It lies in a cleft where Asia is literally splitting apart, the beginnings of a future ocean.

More than 5,000 feet deep (1637m) at its most profound, with another four-mile-thick layer of sediment further down, the lake's cold, oxygen-rich waters teem with bizarre life-forms

.One of those is the seals' favourite food, the golomyanka, a pink, partly transparent fish which gives birth to live young. Geologists estimate that Lake Baikal formed somewhere 20-25 million years ago, during the Mesozoic.

Surrounded by mile-high snowcapped mountains, Lake Baikal still offers vistas of unmatched beauty. The mountains are still a haven for wild animals, and the small villages are still outposts of tranquillity and self-reliance in the remote Siberian taiga.

Aurora

An aurora is a natural light display in the sky (from the Latin word aurora, "sunrise" or the Roman goddess of dawn) related to the Viking God Thor and the history of the earliest Vikings, especially in the high latitude (Arctic and Antarctic) regions, caused by the collision of solar wind and magnetospheric charged particles with the high altitude atmospherce (thermosphere). Most auroras occur in a band known as the auroral zone,which is typically 3° to 6° wide in latitude and observed at 10° to 20° from the geomagnetic poles at all local times (or longitudes), but often most vividly around the spring and autumn equinoxes. The charged particles and solar wind  are directed into the atmosphere by the Earth's magnetosphere. A geomagnetic strom  expands the auroral zone to lower latitudes.

The world's smallest guiter is the size of a red blood cell.

The world's smallest guiter--carved out of crystalline silicon and no larger than a single cell--has been made at cornell university to demonstrate a new tecnolygy that could have a variety of uses in fiber optics,displays,sensors and electronics.
The "nanoguiter"--made for fun to illustrate the tecnology--is that one of several structure that cornell researchrs believe are the world's smallest silicon mechanical device.

when awake,Brain generates enough electricity to power a lightbulb

Inside your head is a jelly-like organ that controls everything you do. Without it, you wouldn't be able to think, run, dance or even breathe. But what makes your brain so special?

Your brain is like a powerful computer. It stores memories and controls how you move, breathe, think and react. Compared to other mammals about the same size as you, you have a big brain.

Your brain has lots of folds and wrinkles. The wrinkles increase the area of your brain, making lots of space for you to make connections between brain cells. More connections equal more brain power!

Here are our top five brain facts:

1. When you're awake, your brain generates enough electricity to power a lightbulb.
2. You have the same number of brain cells at birth as you do in adulthood. As you learn and store memories, these brain cells grow and you make new connections between them.
3. Your brain makes up 2% of your body's weight, but uses 20% of your body's energy.
4. The left side of your brain controls the right side of your body. The right side of your brain controls the left side of your body.
5. James Watson, a famous scientist, once said the brain is "the most complex thing we have yet discovered in our universe."
