Haven’t you always wanted to be able to record time lapse videos like a pro? Many of us have, but the problem is recording like a pro often times means learning a large amount of technical information that is far beyond what we’re willing to learn.

This is the first camera with the ability to capture time-lapse video and HDR simultaneously with the single push of a button. This innovative gadget has a built in lens with an aperture of f/2.0 along with a field view of 112 degrees. If you are looking for more options when it comes to shooting, the Brinno TLC200 Pro is also equipped with CS mounting giving the user the option of swapping out interchangeable lenses. Check out the video taken with the device below, and purchase yours from Amazon.

Our Sun is not a giant blueberry. Our Sun can be made to appear similar to the diminutive fruit, however, by imaging it in a specific color of extreme violet light called CaK that is emitted by the very slight abundance of ionized Calcium in the Sun’s atmosphere, and then false color-inverting the image. This solar depiction is actually scientifically illuminating as a level of the Sun’s chromosphere appears quite prominent, showing a crackly textured surface, cool sunspots appearing distinctly bright, and surrounding hot active regions appearing distinctly dark. The Sun is currently near the maximum activity level in its 11 year cycle, and has emitted powerful flares over the past week. During times of high activity, streams of energetic particles from Sun may impact the Earth’s magnetosphere and set off spectacular auroras.

The photo above shows Moqui Marbles in their native habitat of southern Utah. These curious rocks are actuallyconcretions having iron (hematite) rinds. Very similar rocks, called blueberries, have been observed repeatedly on Mars by the rovers. Some scientific papers implicate the possibility of life on Mars playing a role in their formation while others do not. Discussions about the pros and cons of their formation have been quite lively at times. However, the consensus seems to be that both the marbles and the blueberries were created beneath the surface as naturally occurring substances, most likely minerals, precipitated from flowing groundwater. Pictured with the marbles is a Devil’s-Claw cactus
