    The absence of government is more desirable than oppressive government, because it is much more difficult to truly live underneath an oppressive government than it is to start from scratch in a new, unorganized situation where you have more freedom. While it is somewhat unnerving to live in a circumstance with no government, and while no situation is void of issues and problems, a fulness of freedom would be present and the issues would be fixed much easier and quicker than in a despotic environment. Within oppressive governments the only solutions available are reform (which is unlikely in tyrannical conditions) revolution (extremely difficult, bloody, and violent) or not to do anything at all (which really isn’t an option). But, with an anarchist…

    Aurora borealis or northern lights form when charged particles emitted from the sun during a solar flare travel with solar wind and penetrate the earths magnetic shield and collide with atoms and molecules in our atmosphere. The collusions result in the production of photons which light up the sky. Collisions with oxygen will produce a green aurora. The northern lights are visible from dusk until dawn as long as it is dark and in this case we see a photograph taken by a citizen in Iceland. Scientist Thomas Stevenson explains that the shape of the northern lights depend on where in the magnetosphere the electrons (charged particle) come from and what causes them to precipitate into the atmosphere.…

    Many optical illusions take advantage of our perception, being a "construction project" and our brain constantly trying to estimate the best guess, leading for us to be easily tricked. The moon illusion is an optical illusion which causes the moon to appear larger near the horizon than it does higher up in the sky. One of the most famous illusion and most widely discussed has been the so called "Moon Illusion". For many years psychologists have known about this and have proposed many theories to explain why this is possible, but we can say that most scientists who study human perception and illusion have not yet accepted any of the theories. The "moon illusion" or the "moon effect" has been discussed as early as the 7th century BCE, it has…
