Rosetta
by Theodosis Dervos
The European Space Agency's (ESA) Rosetta spacecraft,
which is set to become the
first to orbit a comet and
land a probe on its
nucleus, is beginning its
observations and is sending
science data back to Earth.
Launched in March
2004, Rosetta was
reactivated in January 2014
after a record 957 days in
hibernation. Composed of an
orbiter and lander,
Rosetta's objective is to
arrive at comet
67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko
in August this year to study the celestial object up close in
unprecedented detail and prepare for landing a probe on its
nucleus in November.
Rosetta's lander will obtain the first images taken
from a comet's surface and will provide the first analysis of a
comet's composition by drilling into the surface. Rosetta also will
be the first spacecraft to witness at close proximity how a
comet changes as it is subjected to the increasing intensity of
the sun's radiation. Observations will help scientists learn more
about the origin and evolution of our solar system and the
role comets may have played in seeding the Earth with water,
and perhaps even life.

Hand-imal Art
by Marianthie Deligianni
The fur seems so real you want to stroke it.. The eye shines like it is alive. Guido Danieles portraits of animals look
exactly like photographs.. But look closer and you can see the outline of a thumb and maybe even a fingernail or two.
Guidos hand-imals are not photographs of eagles, birds, fish and snakes, but photos of models hands that have been painted
to look exactly like different creatures! Guido became famous in the early seventies for his body-painting and photography. His
work has been exhibited around the world and hes now considered one of the world s best Hyper-realist artists.
Extreme Ironing
by Giorgos Adamopoulos
Household chores may be a household bore, but not when they
become extreme sports. There are many strange sports in the world and
here is a new one that you might like to try. Extreme ironing is very
simple. You take your ironing board, your iron and a piece of clothing to
somewhere out of the ordinary and...you iron. There is an annual
competition for the best photograph of extreme ironing.
Many people take it very seriously and train for the competition.
To do extreme ironing you need stamina, but you also have to iron with
grace - you see, this sport is like
dancing. There are photographs of
people ironing underwater, on the tops
of mountains or riding on bikes. You
can iron on your own or with a team
of friends.
Extreme ironing might never become
an Olympic sport, but at least you can
do something exciting and still have
nicely ironed clothes at the end of the
day.

The Dress
by Emily Zervoulakou
The Internet is divided between those who see this dress as black-blue and those who see white-gold. The photo of
a plain dress with lace has sparked fierce controversy.
72% of people argue that the dress is white-gold and 28% insisting
that it is blue-black.
The dress was designed by the company Roman Originals,
which states on its website that is blue with black lace. Nevertheless,
the company hinted that it may design a white-gold version.
The simple scientific explanation behind this conflict is that it
is a mirage. Objects reflect light at specific wavelengths, or colours,
and the human brain determines the colour of an object by employing
the colour reflex. But this perception can be influenced by changing
the colour of surrounding objects.
People who perceive the surroundings as dark are more likely
to see a blue dress as white, and a black dress as gold. It all
depends on the way the brain perceives and processes the colour.
What about you? What colour do you see the dress? Black and blue or
gold and white?
