Interesting Pictures
This photo is very rare. It was taken by NASA using the Hubble telescope. This kind of event occurs once in 3000 years. It's called "The Eye of God." This photo has done miracles in many lives, so please don't delete it. Make a wish...you have looked at the eye of God. Don't keep this email with you. Pass it along to at least 7 persons.
Here is what Snopes had to say about the above...
Claim...Photograph taken by the Hubble Telescope shows a nebula dubbed the "Eye of God."
Status...Real picture; inaccurate description.
The above displayed image is a real photograph of the Helix Nebula although it's technically not a single photograph but rather a composite image formed from several photographs taken by NASA's orbiting Hubble Space Telescope...
...and a land based telescope at the Kitt Peak National Observatory near Tucson, Arizona.

The above nebula image was NASA's "Astronomy Picture of the day for 10 May 2003. The Helix Nebula does not naturally appear with the colors shown above, however, the tinting of the image is artificial. The picture's "Eye of God" appellation is a title coined by any admirer of the photo due to the nebula's resemblance to a human eye, not something designated by NASA, and the nebula is also visible all the time, not merely "once in 3000 years."
Below are additional views of the "Eye of God" with alternate tinting.
World War II was the deadliest military conflict in History. Over 60 million people were killed worldwide. The most casualties by country...the Soviet Union with almost 24 million people killed overall. Military deaths were around 10 million with the civilian population surrendering 24 million lives. United States casualties totaled almost 500,000 killed.
American factories were converted to producing material used in the war effort. One major effort was producing aircraft that would be used throughout the world fighting tyranny and at home protecting citizens. Below are some of those aircraft. There are too many to show. This sampling alone is phenomenal.
