STRANGE TREES AROUND THE GLOBE

A RIVER OVER A RIVER

Even after you see it, it is still hard to believe!
Water Bridge in Germany . What a feat!
Six years, 500 million euros, 918 meters long........now this is engineering!
This is a channel-bridge over the River Elbe and joins the former East and

West Germany, as part of the unification project. It is located in the city of
Middleburg, near Berlin. The photo was taken on the day of inauguration.
To those who appreciate engineering projects, here's a puzzle for you armchair
engineers and physicists.

Did that bridge have to be designed to withstand the additional weight of ship
and barge traffic, or just the weight of the water?

Answer:
It only needs to be designed to withstand the weight of the water!
Why? A ship always displaces an amount of water that weighs the same as the ship,
regardless of how heavily a ship may be loaded.

A MYSTERIOUS TREE IN NALGONDA

At a glance you may be confused the above tree with a massive trunk with a 'Baobab' tree (which is renowned to possess the largest tree trunks of the world) but, this is yet another unknown specie which is seen in the close proximity of a hermitage deep in the dense forest in 'Andra Pradesh' in India.                                                                                             
Now have a close look at the bark and experience the unbelievable figures of creatures engraved in the surface of the entire tree trunk!!                                           
                                                                     
Absolutely real!!!
