Solstice season is in full swing and marks the longest, brightest day of the year. And what makes this day extra special is that it arrives with a glowing full moon along with Jupiter, Saturn and Mars in the night sky. What I absolutely love is that after Monday our daylight hours will decrease , and its not that I do not enjoy summer in all its glorious sunlight, but do prefer nightish activities in much cooler weather.

A few interesting facts about the summer solstice is that it marks the midpoint between the planting and harvesting seasons, and a June full moon has not occurred on the solstice since 1948…. wow!!!

A science museum in the city of Rio designed by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava. The museum has partnerships with Brazil’s leading universities, global science institutions and collects real-time data on climate and population from space agencies and the United Nations.

Built near the waterfront of Pier Maua, the Museu do Amanhã {Museum of Tomorrow} is where many will come to see sci-fi fantasy objects such as lasers, robots and space travel, but will be disappointed to find no technology on display. The museum mixes science and its innovative design on sustainable cities.
