Just for Fun - Christian the Lion

Christian the Lion was taken out of a zoo when he was a few weeks old and was used as part of an advertisement for a company. After a while, Christian went to live with 2 men who were trying to rehabilitate him and were hoping to help release him back into the wild. He was with them for around 2 years. When Christian got too big to stay in the house, the two men took him to a lion sanctuary in Africa where he would be trained to be a wild lion and then hopefully released back into the wild. Christian had lived in a house most of his life and had no way of knowing how to hunt, find water, or otherwise take care of himself in the wild. The two men left him there and hoped for the best. After a year, the two men missed Christian and went back to Africa to visit with him. Hmmm.... a lion that had been training to be a wild lion for a year and two men meet on the African Savannah. Watch the video below to witness the reunion.

Saturn's Rings

You didn't think that Saturn's Rings were at all solid did you?

In this picture from the Cassini orbiter, released July 26, the Saturnian moon makes its exit at lower right after perturbing the giant planet's thin F ring. Prometheus' gravitational effect periodically creates streamer-channels in the F ring, and the moon's handiwork can be seen in the dark ring channels.

Weird Clouds Look Even Better From Space

As hot air rises from Earth, it will cool as it goes up into the atmosphere. Eventually, the rising air will hit the tropopause and will not rise any higher producing the effects shown in this article. Read the article.
