A paraglider casts a shadow over the dunes of Niger's T énéré desert. A south-central tract of the Sahara, the 150,000-square-mile (400,000-square-kilometer) Ténéré is one of Africa's most forbidding regions. Hot, dusty harmattan winds blow across the bone-dry desert, which receives an annual rainfall of about 1 inch (25 millimeters).

Easter Island, 1979

Giant stone moai stand on Easter Island's stony slopes. Earlier explorers believed the stone statues were worshipped as gods by native Polynesians, but Captain James Cook and his men speculated in 1774 that they were constructed to honor ancestors, a view still held by many today.

主标题：复活节岛，1979 巨石雕像竖立在耶稣复活节岛的石斜坡面，最早的探险家认为石雕像是本土玻利维亚人们崇拜神灵而作，但是一位船长厨师和其他人，在1774年推测是为了尊敬他们的祖先。这一景观持续到今天。

Chinstrap penguins (Pygoscelis antarctica) ride out high surf on blue-ice icebergs near Candlemas Island in the South Sandwich Islands. Safe for the moment from predaceous leopard seals, chinstrap penguins are the second most abundant species in Antarctica and the sub-Antarctic.

南极洲的企鹅都聚结在纯洁冰的冰山上，靠近圣烛节岛的南部三文治岛内。为了安全免受海豹的攻击，南极企鹅是第二类盛产于南极洲或亚南极区。

Breaking Surf, Bora-Bora, French Polynesia, 1997
Photograph by Jodi Cobb
Lacy breakers lap the coral reef that rings Bora-Bora, an ancient sunken volcano 165 miles (266 kilometers) northwest of Tahiti in French Polynesia's Society Islands. Surrounded by sugar-white beaches, an electric-blue lagoon, and some of the clearest water on the planet, Bora-Bora is home to hundreds of species of tropical fish. Not surprisingly, it's one of the world's top spots for divers.

法国属的玻利尼西亚多岛群岛，季节性东北冷风吹袭，浪拍海岸，1997.

一些洁净的水在行星上，还有数百种热带鱼。不要惊讶，它是世界顶级潜水者的好去处。

The tentacles of a box jellyfish (Chironex fleckeri) trail behind it and can reach 15 feet (4.6 meters) in length. Found in northern Australia and adjacent waters, a sting from this species can be deadly. This species of box jellyfish, the largest, can have as many as 60 tentacles.

"Spanning a West Virginia canyon 3,000 feet [914 meters] wide, the New River Gorge Bridge transformed 44,000 tons of steel and concrete into structural art as graceful as the morning mists drifting below it. Opened in 1977, it replaced an 1889 trestle—and 40 white-knuckled minutes on one-lane switchbacks—with 40 seconds on cruise control."

在美国西维吉尼亚峡谷，峡谷有3000英尺（914米）广阔，新建一座山峡大桥，使用了44000 吨的钢铁和混凝土做为结构材料。每当早晨薄雾漂移到大桥下面是那么的优美。
大桥在1977年开放，它取代了1889年的老式高架桥。

A school of salema attempts to outmaneuver a hungry sea lion near the Galápagos Islands by circling to confuse the predator. Galápagos sea lions dive down some 120 feet (37 meters) on average to feed, returning to the surface after a minute or two to breathe.
