The pixelated planet above is actually our own planet Earth seen in gamma rays - the most energetic form of light.
In fact, the gamma rays used to construct this view pack over 35 million electron volts (MeV) compared to a mere two electron volts (eV) for a typical visible light photon.
The Earth's gamma-ray glow is indeed very faint, and this image was constructed by combining data from seven years of exposure during the life of the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory, operating in Earth orbit from 1991 to 2000.
Brightest near the edge and faint near the center, the picture indicates that the gamma rays are coming from high in Earth's atmosphere.
The gamma rays are produced as the atmosphere interacts with high energy cosmic rays from space, blocking the harmful radiation from reaching the surface.
Dä vom Tagesanzeiger isch abär guät, am afang wär i fast druf inägheit.
Äs got drum, dass Sauber dä Flugplatz Dübendorf übärnimmt und eigäni Autos bauä wot mit hilf vo BMW und dä EMPA Dübädorf. Leider fallts denn uf wos meined, dass t Autos mit EMS Chemie Chläber kläbät wärded und denn mit Ultraschallpischtolä chönd glöst wärdä..
<suggestiv beeinfluss>chum hans, probier emol vo dere feine frucht. schmeck da fein süess-suur fruchtfleisch. du wirsch begeistered si. schmeck dä inhalt und lueg nöd uf präsentation. das fruchterlebnis wird dies lebe verändere. los nöd uf diä andere. probiers doch grad emol us</suggestiv beeinfluss>
