Full Moon Rising over Mount Olympus
This is the full Moon rising over a ridge-line on Mount Olympus (Euboea), on Evia (Euboea) Island, Greece. This shot was taken from the village of Pissonas, just after sunset on May 29, 2018. Evia is the second largest Greek island in area and population, after Crete.
Though the Moon is the same angular size as it rises as it is when it's overhead, the full Moon looks huge when it's on or just above the horizon as a result of a well-known, but often debated optical illusion. This Moon illusion is related to the way we perceive the sky to be a finite distance from us and the way our brains judge distance. Take a look at the full Moon as it rises tomorrow night. It's the most distant full Moon of 2018. Nonetheless, it'll loom large when it breaks the horizon.

Le personnel qui travaille en permanence dans un laboratoire doit disposer des conditions de sécurité appropriées pour se protéger de toute tâche dangereuse. Une hotte de laboratoire est essentielle pour maintenir la qualité de l'air. C'est un type de système de ventilation qui assure la protection du personnel contre les émanations toxiques, les vapeurs et la poussière En outre, il agit comme une barrière physique pour protéger contre les déversements de produits chimiques, les réactions incontrôlées et les incendies.

Hi
Active Prominences on a Quiet Sun
Why is the Sun so quiet? As the Sun enters into a period of time known as a Solar Minimum, it is, as expected, showing fewer sunspots and active regions than usual. The quietness is somewhat unsettling, though, as so far this year, most days show no sunspots at all. In contrast, from 2011 - 2015, during Solar Maximum, the Sun displayed spots just about every day.
Maxima and minima occur on an 11-year cycle, with the last Solar Minimum being the most quiet in a century. Will this current Solar Minimum go even deeper? Even though the Sun's activity affects the Earth and its surroundings, no one knows for sure what the Sun will do next, and the physics behind the processes remain an active topic of research. The featured image was taken three weeks ago and shows that our Sun is busy even on a quiet day. Prominences of hot plasma, some larger than the Earth, dance continually and are most easily visible over the edge.

The personnel that continuously work in a laboratory need to have the proper safety conditions, in order to protect them from any hazardous tasks. A laboratory fume hood is vital to keep the quality of air in a laboratory. It is a type of ventilation system that provides personal protection against toxic fumes, vapours and dust. Also, it acts as a physical barrier to protect against chemical spills, runaway reactions and fires.
