HONG KONG adidas nmd human race suomi , April 30 (Xinhua) -- A museum in China's Hong Kong Special Administrative Region is set to launch on Monday a new sky show about auroras, offering audiences an opportunity to "experience" the mysterious and colorful light display that only exists in bitterly cold places in high latitude regions.
The "Kagaya's Aurora" show will be screened twice a day from Monday to Oct. 30 at the Hong Kong Space Museum's Stanley Ho Space Theater.
With the help of advanced filming techniques, the 27-minute show will reveal the amazing display of color and light of auroras adidas nmd chukka suomi , natural light in the sky of high latitude regions such as Alaska and Iceland, the museum said Sunday.
Besides using computer graphics to illustrate the natural mechanism behind the formation of auroras and displaying different forms of aurora through time-lapse photography, the show will also provide aerial shots of glaciers adidas nmd city sock suomi , grand images of the Arctic and melodious New Age music, offering audiences a unique experience in the museum's dome.
"Auroras are caused by the interaction of the solar wind with the Earth's atmosphere, while their rich colors are caused by a variety of airborne constituents adidas nmd r2 suomi ," said a trailer published on the museum's website, inviting audiences to "experience how the Sun's breath and Earth's atmosphere light up the sky."

BUKWO， Uganda， Oct. 14 (Xinhua) -- In the rugged mountainous district of Bukwo， eastern Uganda， young athletes scale the hills and slopes every morning， hoping one day to make it to the international stage.
And indeed some of their peers have won medals.
Stephen Kiprotich， who won Uganda gold at the 2012 London Olympics marathon as well as many other top athletes， are an inspiration to the young athletes in this remote part of the east African country.
Five athletes， many of whom have trained here， on Thursday left for the Nanjing International marathon in China scheduled on Sunday. They expect to show case their talent and perhaps win medals in the eastern Chinese city.
"With the preparation I have been doing， I hope to win a medal in China，" Alex Malinga， a national athlete and coach told Xinhua in an interview on Tuesday.
While there is a lot of enthusiasm from the young athletes to make it to the international arena， they have to go an extra mile unlike their colleagues elsewhere.
With no training ground， the athletes， with their worn-out shoes， scale the hills. Others， who can afford， move to neighboring Kenya where there are training facilities.
With China's increasing interest in sports， the athletes in Uganda believe this could be a window of opportunity to develop the sport in the country.
China has constructed several stadiums in Africa， and the athletes believe that Uganda can tap into these offers to develop especially long-distance running.
Solomon Mutai， one of Uganda's top athletes who participated in the Rio Olympics marathon， told Xinhua that what is critical for Uganda is a training facility.
He said many Ugandan athletes have the capacity to win medals but they need the right training facilities just like their colleagues in neighboring Kenya and Ethiopia.
Mutai， who also won bronze at the 2015 World Championship in China， said countries like China can help construct the training facilities.
He said the bitter lesson he learnt from the Rio Olympics is that one needs to prepare ahead of time by using the appropriate facilities.
Experts argue that Bukwo is one of the suitable places for training， especially in long distance running， because of its high altitude. The place however lacks appropriate training facilities.
Uganda has had plans to construct several training facilities in the area but it is faced with funding challenges， according to officials.
Asian Tour CEO Mike Kerr says the outlook for golf in the continent is positive again -after a few difficult years which saw tournaments scrapped and sponsors hard to find.
The region received a boost last month when the European Tour announced it had added a new "Asian swing" to its 2015 schedule with events in Malaysia, Thailand and India.
February will see the long-established Maybank Malaysian Open followed by two new co-sanctioned Asian Tour and European Tour events - the $2 million Thailand Classic and the Hero Indian Open.
"It really highlights that Asia is where the growth is going to be adidas nmd r1 suomi ," Kerr told AFP on Monday.
The Asian Tour enjoyed a boom period before leaner economic times and greater competition after the arrival of the rival OneAsia tour in 2009 hampered the growth of its schedule.
Two flagship events - both co-sanctioned with the European Tour - suffered. The Singapore Open, once touted as "Asia's major," was sidelined and the Hong Kong Open left without a title sponsor.
Hong Kong still lacks a headline backer but the European Tour has underlined its importance with a key slot on next year's calendar - just -before the season-ending "Final Series."
"Am I happy with where the Asian Tour is at the -moment? I think I am adidas nmd xr4 suomi ," Kerr said. "-Obviously we would love to have more tournaments, more purses, and more opportunities for the players but it takes time.
"What we want to do is develop a sustainable tour. We don't want a flash-in-the-pan event coming in and off the schedule which has in some ways happened in the past."
WELLINGTON adidas nmd xr1 suomi , Aug. 3 (Xinhua) -- Mandatory alcohol interlock sentences and tougher penalties for fleeing drivers are enshrined in the Land Transport Amendment Bill, which was passed by New Zealand Parliament on Thursday.
The bill aims to improve safety for road users by simplifying the law relating to alcohol interlocks, and creating more effective deterrents to drivers fleeing from police adidas nmd cs2 suomi , Transport Minister Simon Bridges. |
