3 World's Oldest Trees

This time I will post about a unique and interesting articles. Hope can enhance your knowledge.Usually when the oldest tree in our society are often at the connection between the things mystical.But you can believe it or not, it turns out there are trees older than 4000 years. Woow .. curious?.

This is the third most Old World Tree:

1.Bristlecone Pine 4200 years


Spruce or pine (pine) is a tree of the family Pinaceae that we can find anywhere and anytime as long as the area's sandy calcareous soil, plenty of water or that have a fairly high acidity. We can find thistree starting from Siberia, Scotland, Norway, the Canary Islands, the Philippines, the Himalayas untilall corners of New Zealand, Brazil and Chile.

This tree is famous because in addition to live everywhere also have a very high selling power in thetimber industry. All the pine trees can be used ranging from wood, sap, twigs, seeds until the leaveshave a valuable economic purpose of this commercial really aliasnya tree

Spruce is one of the long-lived tree that can reach the age of about 100-1000 years, and even recordto be the oldest tree in the world through the pine species from the Great Basin Bristlecone Pine(Pinus longaeva) who in 2008 was 4840 years old! This tree is between 30-80 meters high but the average height 15-45 meters. The highest tree species from the Sugar Pine, while the shortest isPotosi Pinyon pine and Siberian Dwarf Pine.


2. Jomon Sugi 2000 - 7000 years 


According to wikipedia, Jomon sugi is Japan's oldest cypress trees found in 1968, with a height of25.3 meters with an estimated volume of 300 cubic meters was between 2000-7200 years YakushimaIsland is located in the northernmost part of Japan's 40 minutes by plane from Kagoshima Airport .

3. Norway Spruce Ione 9550 years.

Only 4 feet tall, but a kind of pine tree, which still lives in Sweden, known 9550 years old. Life since the last ice age, the tree is listed as the oldest in the world today.

  
 Ione Norway spruce species was discovered in 2004. The researchers found around the bushmountains at an altitude of 910 meters in the province of Dalarna, Sweden. This tree is not rarebecause people often use as a Christmas tree.

"He was a very long most likely triggered emampuannya clone yourself," says Leif Kullman, professoreologi and environment at the University of Umea, Sweden. Stems and branches are known to survivefor 600 years. Kullman explained, when the stems die, new stems will be formed from the roots so that his age becomes very long.

This tree is older than Bristlecone pines in the White Mountain California only 5,000 years old. The oldest Bristlecone pines survive only up to 7,500 years but grew towering up to 150 meters. If age is measured from the Bristlecone pine tree on branches that are monitored each year, age is measuredfrom the spruce in Sweden in radiocarbon traces its roots.

Kullman stated that trees older than 9550 years impossible. Therefore, the whole area is still covered with ice the possibility of Sweden at that time.

15 The World's First Discovery


1. World's First Digital Camera (1975): Works Kodak engineer Steve Sasson  
In December 1975, Kodak engineer Steve Sasson created something that would revolutionize photography: the world's first digital camera. It was the size of a toaster, and captured black and white images at a resolution of 100 × 100 - or 0.01 megapixels in marketing terminology. The images were stored on cassette tape, taking 23 seconds to write. The camera uses an ADC from Motorola, a lens from a Kodak movie camera, and a CCD chip from Fairchild Semiconductor - the same technology that digital cameras still use today. To playback the images, a special computer and tape reader setup (pictured below) was built, outputting the grainy images on a standard TV. It took over 23 seconds to read each image from tape.

7. X-ray World's First (1895): wife's hand Rntgen 
In 1895 Wilhelm Conrad Rntgen, professor of physics at the University Wurburg Germany, was doing experiments with electrical discharges in evacuated glass tubes. Late in 1895 Wilhelm Rntgen alone at night trial run, this time in the dark and see the light produced in the wall, which he knew was not caused by fluorescent light. He named, rays 'X' or if you prefer; X-ray. After several months of playing with this discovery, he noticed that objects place in the path of light can produce shadows and creating pictures on the wall. Soon after he used a plate and photographed his wife, Frau Rntgen, put his hand in the path of the X-ray, and created the first X-ray images of the world. In 1901 Wilhelm Rntgen awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for this discovery.

Horizontal Falls, Niagara Falls with Alternating Reverse Flow


Get ready to be surprised during a visit to Talbot Bay in Western Australia. If all this falls down to the bottom, different story with "Horizontal Falls" flowing horizontally, as well as back and forth.

How so? The flow of water was rushing like water that falls from the cliff. Overview of this scene looks like a waterfall, but the difference between horizontal water flow. To the extent that this place is called the "Horizontal Falls" or horizontal waterfall.
This event is actually formed because of the swift water coming out from between the cliffs. Divide the sea cliff. From the side of the sea (right), the water will fall swiftly to the opposite side (the left). 
This occurs because the sea water on the right was high tide, the sea water while the left was receding. Uniquely, it can be great. Not infrequently if the early morning water flows from right to left, but in the afternoon instead of left to right. 
This transition happens water constantly, so it looks like a waterfall that flows back and forth. If you usually have a certain height waterfalls, this waterfall has only Horizontal width. To be able to flow to the left, the water in the oceans right to pass within 300 meters first. 
This rare sight certainly invites many tourists to come. Admiration has become commonplace when witness this event. To the extent that, the place is dubbed as one of the greatest natural wonders of the world. 
Wow! Fun again, in waterfalls Horizontal traveler not only get to enjoy this natural phenomenon, but the surrounding scenery is also very beautiful. Although access is somewhat difficult, but still it's always been the ideal place for tourists.

Viganella Desa Got the Sun Himself


http://anehdidunia.blogspot.com

In Italy, there is a village that attracts tourists because of its uniqueness. Just imagine, the villages in the valley has its own sun. Remarkably 
Viganella is a village located in the valley that is in Piedmont, Province of Verbano-Cusio-Ossola, Italy. Most of the year, this village was never illuminated by the sun, like other regions of the world.By the time winter comes, people can feel the cold Viganella incredible. 
http://anehdidunia.blogspot.com
  Bright idea comes from the head Giacomo Bonzani, an architect who tries to make the sun Viganella. Initially, many people who membatah idea of the architect as it is considered impossible. However, Giacomo has memuktikannya to embody all that is in the head.Http://anehdidunia.blogspot.com 

"But I am sure. I believe in physics," gibbon Bonzani cited by detikTravel from Oddity Central, Monday (07/16/2012).

Here comes a giant glass reflects the light 
Bonzani make a giant mirror that can reflect sunlight to the villages in the valley. Giant mirror was later dubbed by the public as an artificial sun Viganella. Http://anehdidunia.blogspot.com 

Anehdidunia.blogspot.com companions mirror, controlled by computer software in order to track down the source of the sun and can reflect it automatically to the village. Not only the people Viganella that could feel the effects of the sun, but also the tourists who are curious on this creative idea. 

Illustration of the existence of the village and the light reflection 
Besides functioning illuminate the village, apparently artificial sun have become tourist destinations. Visitors who come not only from Italy, but also from abroad. This valley has a very beautiful scenery complete with the weather was cool. Viganella Society is also very friendly with the visitors.
