A dust devil observed on Mars

On 14 March 2012, the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter NASA has captured images of a Dust Devil  on Mars. These phenomena are powered by solar energy, and occur very often in this period on Mars. The Dust Devil are columns of air rendered visible by dust, but unlike a tornado, they develop under conditions of clear skies and no wind. The air heated by the sun in the vicinity of the surface increases rapidly on contact with the colder air above it, and then begins to rotate.

Lovejoy, the star of Christmas

Who has spent Christmas in the Southern Hemisphere could see, as tradition dictates, a luminous trail across the sky before dawn. A true miracle of nature! The Comet Lovejoy, able not only to resist a close encounter with the Sun but capable of giving many of us, in this Christmas season,  spectacular images. The comet belongs to the so-called Plain of Kreutz comets probably originate from a single large comet.
Lovejoy has a size of about 200 meters, then equal to two football fields, and is unusually large compared to the average size of these objects. It has been the first comet of this type have been observed from Earth for many days near  the sun.
  It has been discovered last November 27 by Australian Terry Lovejoy.

October 17th is the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty

"We want a better World"





October 17th is the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty, as it has been observed since 1993. At the Millennium Summit, world leaders committed themselves to cutting by half by the year 2015 the number of people living in extreme poverty — people whose income is less than one dollar a day. The theme of 2011 is "From Poverty to Sustainability: People at the Centre of Inclusive Development":
“People living in poverty face increasingly difficult challenges as climate change, environmental degradation and rising food prices threaten their livelihoods and survival. The path to sustainable development must ensure that people living in poverty are included in decision-making processes, and that concrete action is taken to respond to their needs and demands.”
At EB nº 2 da Lousã and in other schools that belong to our group of schools, at the same time lessons stopped, so that students could listen to this year’s global message. The students joined together and they had also the opportunity to express their own ideas and feelings on this subject. The students were also asked to dress in white and to bring a pack of milk to be given to the ones in need.

"Together, let us listen to people — and stand up for their hopes and aspirations. That is how we will build a world free of poverty."
United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon

Bin Laden dead


On 1 May. Al Qaeda attacked the U.S. military's most wanted terrorist in the world: Osama Bin Laden.
He was famous for bombing the Twin Towers (New York) where he killed thousands of innocent people on September 11 2000.
And from that day was always sought and finally after 10 long years, was tracked down and after all the harm he has done, killed!
On his computer were found many other "evil plans " that he intended to take Bin Laden, such as an attack on American trains just the 11 September this year.
In America, a 'whole population celebrated his death  burning his pictures, uncorking champagne and waving American flags.
But not everyone is happy: in fact, some citizens of Al Qaeda are ready to avenge the death of their leader.
We can now say gloriously : JUSTICE IS MADE!
