  • In the National Archaeological Museum in Athens, Greece, see a sculpture of Antinoos (or Antinous), who lived about 110-130 AD and was Roman emperor Hadrian's lover and best friend. Hadrian lived 76-138 AD and become one of the few exemplary Roman sovereigns. Hadrian fell in love with the boy Antinous, who accompanied him on his extended trips through the Empire. At age 20, Antinous was drowned, or drowned himself, in the Nile. Cassius Dion recounts that Antinous had learned from an astrologer that he might in this way add his life-span to that of Hadrian's. The sovereign mourned for his friend for the rest of his life. He ordered the foundation of a city, Antinoopolis, at the place where Antinous had died. He surrounded himself with statues and busts of Antinous on his trips, and even more so at his old-age residence, the "Villa" in Tivoli. A star or constellation was named after Antinous.

  • On the 1859 Balloon Voyage at Conner Prairie Interactive History Park, visitors can ride a tethered helium balloon up to 377 feet (115 m) above the ground. The attraction is based on the historic August 17, 1859 trip of Aeronaut John Wise, where he made the first airmail delivery in the United States 25 miles (40 km) from Lafayette to Crawfordsville (Indiana) carrying 123 letters and 23 circulars. Wise was also the first to observe the jet stream, noting a "great river of air which always blows from west to east." Lifted by the largest tethered gas passenger balloon in the world (105 feet or 32 m tall), the gondola can carry up to twenty people.

  • Hike Norway Pass to see a forest of timber downed by volcanic blast in Mount Saint Helens National Volcanic Monument, Skamania County, Washington, USA. Spirit Lake is covered with floating logs from a forest blasted and avalanched by the May 18, 1980 eruption, the most deadly and destructive volcanic event in the history of the United States. The debris avalanche, the largest in recorded history, shrank the mountain from 9677 feet (2950 m) elevation to 8364 feet (2550 m), leaving a mile-wide horseshoe-shaped crater.  Fifty-seven people were killed. 250 homes, 47 bridges, 15 miles of railways, and 185 miles of highway were destroyed. The active stratovolcano of Mount Saint Helens is one of 160 active volcanoes that comprise the Pacific Ring of Fire.  Mount St. Helens, part of the Cascade Range, takes its English name from the British diplomat Lord St Helens, who was a friend of George Vancouver, an explorer who surveyed the area in the late 18th century.

  • Held in place by blown air, the inflatable statue "Breath" (2012) by British artist Marc Quinn was installed 29 May 2013 on the piazza at San Giorgio Maggiore island as part of his temporary solo exhibition at Fondazione Giorgio Cini during the 55th La Biennale of Venice. Serving as a monument for the disabled, "Breath" was also the centerpiece of London's Paralympic Games' opening ceremony in 2012. "Breath" is an 11-meter (35-foot) high inflatable version of his monumental marble work "Alison Lapper Pregnant," a portrait of a disabled pregnant woman. Mark’s friend Alison Lapper was born with no arms and shortened legs due to chromosomal condition called Phocomelia. Rejected by her mother, Alison was brought up in a care home. After discovering she was pregnant, Alison decided to have her child (despite her body’s difficulties and societal prejudices) and gave birth to a healthy boy. Now a recognized artist, Alison was awarded an MBE (Most Excellent Order of the British Empire) in 2003 and featured with her son in the BBC series "Child of Our Time." The original 3.55 meter sculpture, "Alison Lapper Pregnant," was made of Carrara marble, weighed 12 tons, and was displayed from September 2005 to 2007 in London’s Trafalgar Square. Chiesa di San Giorgio Maggiore is a 1500s Benedictine church on San Giorgio Maggiore island in San Marco sestiere, in Venice, Italy, Europe. The basilica was designed in the classical renaissance style by Andrea Palladio and built from 1566-1610. The campanile (bell tower), first built in 1467, fell in 1774, and was rebuilt in neo-classic style by 1791. The white marble basilica rises above the blue water of Venice Lagoon across from Piazzetta San Marco, east of Giudecca island, surrounded by Canale della Grazia, Canale della Giudecca, Saint Mark Basin, and Canale di San Marco. The island was probably occupied in the Roman period, and after the 400s, it was called Insula Memmia (owned by the Memmo family). By 829 it had a church consecr

  • "One monkey faces the world head on, while another, looking down with trepidation is encouraged by a friend." Hidari Jingoro may have carved these panels to incorporate Confucius's Code of Conduct, using the monkey as a way to depict man's life cycle. Art work on storehouse in Toshogu shrine in Nikko, Japan. The monkeys are Japanese macaques, a common species in Japan. Toshogu Shrine is the final resting place of Tokugawa Ieyasu, the founder of the Tokugawa Shogunate that ruled Japan for over 250 years until 1868. Ieyasu is enshrined at Toshogu as the deity Tosho Daigongen, "Great Deity of the East Shining Light". Initially a relatively simple mausoleum, Toshogu was enlarged into the spectacular complex seen today by Ieyasu's grandson Iemitsu during the first half of the 1600s. The lavishly decorated shrine complex consists of more than a dozen buildings set in a beautiful forest. Toshogu contains both Shinto and Buddhist elements, as was common until the Meiji Period when Shinto was deliberately separated from Buddhism. Toshogu is part of Shrines and Temples of Nikko UNESCO World Heritage site.

  • The obelisk at Monticello (near Charlottesville, Virginia, USA) reads "Here was buried Thomas Jefferson, author of the Declaration of American Independence, of the Statute of Virginia for religious freedom, and father of the University of Virginia." Jefferson died on the Fourth of July, 1826, the 50th anniversary of the adoption of the Declaration of Independence, just a few hours before the death of his compatriot John Adams. In their quest for independence from Britain, John Adams was Jefferson's compatriot who became a great political rival, and a later became a friend and correspondent. Adams is often rumored to have referenced Jefferson in his last words, unaware of his passing. Monticello, Italian for "little mountain," was the estate of Thomas Jefferson, the third President of the United States.

  • Carhenge sunrise. Carhenge replicates England's Stonehenge using vintage American automobiles, near Alliance, Nebraska, in the High Plains region, USA. After studying Stonehenge in England, years later, Jim Reinders recreated the physical size and placement of Stonehenge's standing stones in summer 1987, helped by 35 family members. Reinders said, "It took a lot of blood, sweat, and beers." Carhenge was built as a memorial to Reinders' father. 39 automobiles were arranged in the same proportions as Stonehenge with the circle measuring a slightly smaller 96 feet (29m) in diameter.
