The world we live in is full of beauty, charm, and adventure. Also, our world is full of wonderful things and magic. Sometimes we feel deep sadness but at the end of it, we can see happiness. 

But in our busy lives, we forget everything.

Sight, taste, smell, sound, and touch in life, are what make our lives. Authenticity depends on the amount of light and angle that strikes our eyes. We hear reality as our brain perceives the vibrations of the air around us.

The photos given below show the unseen side of the things which are all around us.

#1 This Is What A Cleaned Heart Looks Like

A ghost heart is obtained by washing away all donor cells until you’re left with a protein scaffold. This ghost heart is ready to be injected with a transplant recipient’s stem cells so a new heart – one that won’t be rejected – can be grown.

#2 Large Ice Crystals In Switzerland

Ice crystal precipitation varies in shapes, intensity, and size, but is found in cold regions around the world. “In the absence of supercooled liquid water, the growth of ice crystals to precipitation size is most likely dominated by aggregation of smaller ice crystals, which depends on the ice crystal number concentration and temperature (Hobbs et al. 1974),” as you can see in the image below.

#3 This Is What A Tiger’s Skin Looks Like When It’s Shaved

Each tiger has a unique pattern of stripes that are ideal for the camouflage needs of the animal. “Interestingly, the skin of the tiger is also striped beneath the patterned fur,” says Tigers.org. “The darkness of the pigmentation of the skin seems to be directly related to the darkness of the fur.”

#4 You Can See Every Organ In The Glass Frog

Reticulated glass frogs are found in the rain forests of Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, and Ecuador. The skin on their underside is completely transparent which allows for you to see their internal organs and even their beating heart. Scientists still don’t know the evolutionary reason behind their see-through skin but think the pattern on their backs are meant to resemble eggs and confuse predators.

#5 The Giant Heads Of Easter Island Do Have Bodies

The ancient and mysterious ‘Easter Island Heads’ were carved from rock between A.D 1100 and 1500 by ancient Polynesians. Their traditional name is ‘moai’ but most people know them as giant heads which is why it is often shocking when it’s discovered they have bodies. “The reason people think they are [only] heads is there are about 150 statues buried up to the shoulders on the slope of a volcano, and these are the most famous, most beautiful and most photographed of all the Easter Island statues,” Van Tilburg, who is also a fellow at the Cotsen Institute of Archaeology at the University of California, Los Angeles, told Life’s Little Mysteries.

#6 Grains Of Salt Under Electron Microscope

Salt crystals are cubic, but some grains when observed appear to be made up of overlapping cubes. This ionic compound is made up of sodium and chloride atoms. When a number of these molecules join to form a crystal they will often arrange themselves in a cubic pattern.

#7 This Is What A Baby Flamingo Looks Like

These fluffy little creatures are baby flamingos, which may be confusing to some as they are lacking their infamous pink color. Babies of this species are fed bright red milk made from their parents’ upper digestive tracts. As they grow up, they begin to develop their characteristic pink feathers. Adult flamingos feed on red and blue-green algae, which is filled with beta carotene, an organic chemical with a reddish-orange pigment. The digestive track system of flamingos extracts the pigment and it eventually dissolves into fats. These fats are deposited into new feathers for full-on pretty in pink transformation.

#8 This Is An Intact Human Nervous System

In 1925 two medical students in Kirksville, Missouri was challenged to dissect a cadaver’s nervous system, starting from the brain downward, but leaving the entire system in one piece. The process took the students – M.A. Schalck and L.P. Ramsdell-over 1,500 hours. Their “blood, sweat, and tears” produced this extraordinary display, located at the Museum of Osteopathic Medicine at A.T. Still University (ATSU) in Kirksville. There are only 4 of these in the world.

#9 Aurora Of Different Planets

Aurora’s are breathtaking cosmic light displays that can be seen from various planets in our solar system. An aurora is a finale to a process that begins with the sun. The sun emits a constant stream of charged particles or solar wind into the solar system. When these winds reach a planet they interact with the magnetic field that surrounds it and compresses the field into a teardrop shape. The way in which the magnetic field change causes the charged particles to accelerate into the upper atmosphere, colliding with molecules such as nitrogen and oxygen which gives off energy in the form of light. A light ribbon of color is displayed across the sky in an aurora.

#10 An Agate Shell. Minerals Have Grown In The Voids Of The Shell And Eventually Replaced The Shell Too

Found mostly on West Coast beaches, they’re not that rare and usually end up in home collections. But that doesn’t diminish their beauty one bit!

#11 What Thousands Of Years Look Like In One Photo (Dun Briste Sea Stack, Downpatrick Head, Co. Mayo, Ireland)

Living 50 meters off the north Mayo coast at Downpatrick Head sits the 45 meters high flat-topped sea stack Dún Briste (the Broken Fort). Interestingly, this is considered to be a relatively new sea stack as it was only separated from mainland Ireland in 1393 when monster seas severed it from County Mayo in an overnight storm. The summit of the stack is approximately 50 meters long and 15 meters across the center. This flat-topped stack contains the remains of the buildings where people were living on the night of the great storm. In 1980 three scientists landed on the summit by helicopter and spent a couple of hours examining the remains of the buildings and plant life still surviving there. They discovered the remains of a building running across the center of the headland with enough details left to say that both people and livestock lived together inside it.

#12 Some 5-Pointed Starfish Can Be Squared Due To Birth Defects

Did you know that there are about 1,500 species of starfish that we know of? From the tropics to frigid polar waters, they are found from the intertidal zone down to abyssal depths, 6,000 m (20,000 ft) below the surface.

#13 Here’s What An Albino Raccoon Looks Like

Raccoons are known for their bandit black and white look, which is what makes this albino creature an anomaly. Unlike their friends, albino raccoons lack any sort of camouflage which makes hiding from predators difficult and thus their lifespan shorter. Albinism is a congenital disease that causes either partial or complete loss of pigmentation in an animal.

#14 The Dark Side Of The Moon Passing In Front Of The Earth, Captured From One Million Miles Away

A NASA camera aboard the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) has captured a unique view of the Moon as it passed between the spacecraft and Earth. A series of test images show the fully illuminated “dark side” of the Moon that is not visible from Earth.

#15 This Globe For Blind People

In 1830 an engineer and craftsman by the name of Stephen Preston Ruggles took on a project for the print shop at Perkins School for the Blind, in Watertown, Massachusetts. He created a map of Boston with the streets, roads, bridges, and squares marked with wooden divots. For centuries blind people had no formal way to learn geography, and this was one of the earliest archived attempts. In 1837 Samuel Gridley Howe, the school’s Founding Director along with Ruggles re-invented the method and created a method of embossing maps, releasing the Atlas of the United States Printed for Use of the Blind.

#16 Processed Image Of An Actual Virus Via Electron Microscope

This scary-looking creature from the family of bacteriophages, or phages for short. Discovered independently by Frederick Twort in 1915 and Félix d’Herelle in 1917, phages were used to treat cholera by scientists who did not yet know how they worked. In 1940 was the first time phages were seen under an electron microscope and scientists realized how they work. This virus infects bacteria and cannot survive or reproduce without it. Once they invade a host cell they can consume the host’s nutrients and reproduce.

#17 Giant Amethyst Geode

Geodes are hollow rocks that contain inward-facing crystals that are formed by numerous different processes, namely a slow flow of mineral material into pockets of air within rocks. One of the most renowned regions for amethyst mineralization and geode mining is the Artigas region of Uruguay. According to the Guinness Book of World Records, The largest amethyst geode weighs 13,000 kg (28,660 lb) and is 3 m (9 ft 10 in) long, 1.8 m (5 ft 10 in) wide, and 2.2 m (7 ft 2 in) high. It is displayed in the Shandong Tianyu Museum of Natural History (China) in Shandong, China.

#18 Microbes Left Behind From The Handprint Of An 8-Year-Old Boy After Playing Outside

But before you freak out and lock yourself inside, remember that most germs won’t harm you. Your immune system protects you against infectious agents. And growing up in ‘natural’ environments helps kids develop a balanced immune response.

#19 Snow-Covered Net Roof Of The Aviary In The Zoo

The first walk-through aviary was built for the St. Louis World’s fair in 1904 by the Smithsonian Institute. It was considered to be the largest of its kind at the time and was bought by the Saint Louis Zoo where it remains to this day. Proper aviary construction for zoos requires veterinary involvement due to health and husbandry concerns for the animals.

#20 This Is What An Empty Boeing 787 Looks Like

The Boeing 787 is known as the ‘Dreamliner’ and its variants seat 242 to 335 passengers. The 787 was designed to be 20% more fuel-efficient than the Boeing 767, which it was intended to replace. While Boeing isn’t having a great time right now, with grave safety concerns over its new 737 max 8, the Dreamliner has been a commercial success. Still, it wasn’t all plain sailing; the aircraft suffered from several in-service problems related to its lithium-ion batteries, including fires on board during commercial service. This resulted in the FAA grounding all 787s in the US in 2013, with other civil aviation authorities following suit. The battery design was revised, and the Dreamliner was back in the skies within a few weeks.

#21 The Inside Of A Space Suit

Here are some interesting facts about spacesuits, according to NASA: 1. A spacesuit weighs approximately 280 pounds on the ground – without the astronaut in it. In the microgravity environment of space, a spacesuit weighs nothing. 2. Putting on a spacesuit takes 45 minutes, including the time it takes to put on the special undergarments that help keep astronauts cool. After putting on the spacesuit, to adapt to the lower pressure maintained in the suit, the astronaut must spend a little more than an hour breathing pure oxygen before going outside the pressurized module. 3. The reason that spacesuits are white is that white reflects heat in space the same as it does here on Earth. Temperatures in direct sunlight in space can be more than 275 degrees Fahrenheit. 4. No difference exists in a male’s or female’s suit, though the female astronaut usually requires a smaller size. 5. The shuttle spacesuit was designed to be made of many interchangeable parts, to accommodate a large number of astronauts with widely varying body sizes. These parts (upper and lower torsos, arms, etc.) are made in different sizes. 6. The body measurements of each shuttle astronaut are taken and recorded. Then the measurements are plotted against the size ranges available for each spacesuit component. The suit components are then assembled. Training suits are usually assembled nine months prior to flight, and flight suits are usually assembled four months prior to flight.

#22 What A Salt Mine Looks Like From The Inside

Before engines and earth-moving equipment were invented, mining salt was one of the most expensive and dangerous things to do. While salt is now plentiful, until the Industrial Revolution it was difficult to come by, and salt mining was often done by slave or prison labor and life expectancy among those sentenced was low. In Roman times, salt on the table was a mark of wealth; so valuable was this resource that soldier’s pay was originally in salt. This is where the word ‘salary’ comes from.

#23 This Is What An Elephant’s Tail Looks Like Up Close

Elephant’s tails have a few uses. For example, elephants can use their tails to communicate with each other; much like a dog, a swishing or wagging tail can signify happiness or excitement. Baby elephants sometimes hold on to the tail of older animals while they are walking, for guidance and security on long walks. The tail full of hair also works as a flyswatter, to help keep away those annoying and biting flies.

#24 What An Eclipse Looks Like From Space

This photo was uploaded onto the Astronomy Picture of the Day and shows the shadow of the Moon’s darkening part of the Earth. It was taken by the crew on the former Mir space station and it is estimated that the shadow moved across the Earth at nearly 2000 kilometers per hour. “Only observers near the center of the dark circle see a total solar eclipse – others see a partial eclipse where only part of the Sun appears blocked by the Moon,” APOD explained. “This spectacular picture of the 1999 August 11 solar eclipse was one of the last ever taken from the Mir space station. The two bright spots that appear on the upper left are possibly Jupiter and Saturn, although this has yet to be proven. Mir was deorbited in a controlled re-entry in 2001.”

#25 Sperm Whales (The Largest Toothed Predators On Earth) Do Not Have Teeth In Their Upper Jaw But Sockets That Their Lower Teeth Fit Into

Sperm whales are the largest among the toothed whales and have heads that are one-third the animal’s length. These big-headed whales have 20-26 pairs of cone-shaped teeth along their lower jaw, but interestingly enough none on the top. While this may seem bizarre for eating, it is strange that sperm whales have teeth at all. Their primary food item is the giant squid, which they don’t chew but slurp up.

#26 Strawberry’s Surface

This macro photograph shows the individual seeds on the skin of a strawberry. Strawberry “seeds” are the ovaries of the berry that hold the actual seeds inside. The photographer, Alexey Kljatov, wrote on Flickr that the photo was created by: “Focus stacking + averaging (10 groups with a different focus, each group contains 8 identical shots for averaging). The problem with this shot was that strawberry is too glossy (I put a white plastic bag around berry to diffuse daylight).”

#27 This Fossilized Dinosaur Foot Print I Saw In Utah

These prints lie in The Bull Canyon Dinosaur Track Trail. It’s a short trail with a great viewpoint of Fisher Valley. The tracks are of a Therapod, likely something similar to a Velociraptor made famous in the Jurassic Park movies. The prints are left in Entrada Sandstone and are about 200 million years old. On-site, they look as if the dinosaur ran off the edge of the existing cliff, which is 1,000 feet above the valley floor.

#28 Picture Of A Single Atom That Won Science Photo Contest

This awe-inspiring photo shows an atom as a speck of light sat between two metal electrodes about 2mm (0.078in) apart. The photo titled “Single Atom in an Ion Trap” was shot by David Nadlinger, a student at the University of Oxford. The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) in the UK awarded the photo with the top prize in its national science photography competition. “In the center of the picture, a small bright dot is visible – a single positively-charged strontium atom. It is held nearly motionless by electric fields emanating from the metal electrodes surrounding it. […] When illuminated by a laser of the right blue-violet color, the atom absorbs and re-emits light particles sufficiently quickly for an ordinary camera to capture it in a long exposure photograph,” reads the photo caption.

#29 What The Verdun Battlefield Looks Like Now

This peaceful-looking site was where the longest battle of the First World War was fought. The Battle of Verdun was fought between German and French troops on the hills of North-Eastern France and lasted from the 21st of February to the 18th of December 1916, a total of 303 days. The concentration of so much fighting in such a small area devastated the land, resulting in miserable conditions for troops on both sides. Rain, combined with the constant tearing up of the ground turned the clay of the area to a wasteland of mud full of human remains. Shell craters filled, becoming so slippery that troops who fell into them or took cover in them could drown. Forests were reduced to tangled piles of wood by constant artillery fire and eventually obliterated. In 2000, Hannes Heer and K. Naumann calculated 377,231 French and 337,000 German casualties, a total of 714,231, an average of 70,000 a month. Although the Germans were held from taking Verdun itself, who won the battle is a question not all historians answer the same.

#30 These Biscuit Presses

The Brits love their biscuits, if you’re ever invited round to someone’s house in the UK, you’ll likely be given a hot cup of milky tea and a tin of biscuits to peruse at your leisure. These presses are just that, they roll over the dough to create yummy biscuits. The front roller appears to be the classic digestives, a staple of any biscuit tin. “The digestive was first developed in 1839 by two Scottish doctors to aid digestion,” says Wikipedia. “The term “digestive” is derived from the belief that they had antacid properties due to the use of sodium bicarbonate when they were first developed.” Delicious.
