Neil Armstrong had been getting ready for his mission to the Moon for over three years. To resist microgravity conditions, he had to learn how to walk sideways, by being strapped and suspended at an angle and trying to walk along walls. His limits were tested through an intense diet and sleep regimen since in space he would only have beef and vegetables previously dehydrated and stuffed into a package. Back in the day, astronauts had to experience the desert, jungle, open sea, and arctic survival training. These days it’s a lot more structured, but back then it was more of a “let’s drop this person in the middle of nowhere with no supplies and see if they make it.” Before landing on the Moon, he had to gather and study rock samples in the Grand Canyon, explore ancient volcano formations in the Nevada National Security Site, and look into gas and lava vents, lava lakes, and pit craters in various locations in Hawaii.
A lot of people associate guests’ visits with deep cleaning. We mop the floors, clean windows and mirrors, get rid of dust, and give a perfect look to our house. But some little things in our homes can impress guests more than the mess and the traces of cobwebs on the ceiling.
The world is teeming with ingenious individuals whose indelible contributions have shaped society.

Many have created enduring masterpieces of art, while others have pioneered groundbreaking technologies that have revolutionized our world.

In recent years, the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to generate images has become increasingly popular. One area where this technology has seen significant progress is in generating images of celebrities. With AI, it is now possible to create images that are nearly indistinguishable from real photographs of famous people. Here, we will explore how AI is used to generate pictures of celebrities as if they were 70 years old.
Sometimes the funniest moments are those that come out of nowhere in the middle of a dull day. They might grow into an interlude that flawlessly blends comedy with drama. Despite the possibility that we may forget about those events, photographs can help us recall them as well as the laughter we felt at the time.
Long-distance relationships (LDRs) are one of the most popular types of relationships in the world. According to a New York Post study, more than 58% of all relationships end happily. Despite this popularity, many couples struggle to keep the spark alive in their LDRs. Here are some must-haves that can help make your LDR work.
Most of us use social media, and we come across a wide variety of photographs that people upload to the Internet daily. Some images can make us laugh, while others might trigger us, and yet others leave us feeling nothing but perplexed. Many pictures can trick our minds into gazing at them for an infinite amount of time. Thus, they compel us to take more than one look, but sometimes, that’s not enough for us to understand what’s going on.
Whether we are born photogenic or not is a matter of luck that does not depend on our will. In any case, to get a good shot, it is sometimes necessary to make several attempts. This is how celebrities, even with all their glamour, appear underwhelming in some photographs if, for example, they are caught distracted or in the wrong light. It is not strange, therefore, that we see perfect images on celebrities’ social media. Still, then other shots of the same event taken by photographers are posted with quite different results.
Oftentimes, the most amusing pictures are the ones that haven’t been Photoshopped. And luckily, some folks never miss the chance to grab their cameras and share any enchanting or funny sights they happen upon with the rest of us through their photographs. You may want to scroll through the incredible pictures below to see what we mean.

Photographs that scientists look at through their microscopes open a whole new world of tiny cells that our bodies are made of. And quite often, these photos look like the views from telescopes aimed at distant galaxies. A close-up of a human eye, for example, resembles a black hole in space, an isolated fat cell looks just like Mars, and a bunch of neurons looks like numerous galaxies scattered around the universe.
Grannies are synonymous with homemade food, fulfilled cravings, gifts, and lots of love.

Scientists have known for quite some time that people literally glimmer. We emit small amounts of light that cannot be seen by the human eye. These pictures, however, shine bright enough to be seen from afar and show that beauty is found in uniqueness. Bright Side has gathered these photographs to bring a smile to your face and demonstrate that Mother Nature is truly the most talented artist of all.
According to scientists, people should expect the unexpected at any time or place.

Imagine you walk into a luxurious hotel room and you are dazzled because everything looks so shiny. Every detail is placed with precision, and then, after sighing, you think to yourself that you wish you could live there. “How do they do it?” you probably ask yourself.
Photographs have the power to evoke emotions — including heartfelt ones. That’s why when we see pictures of animals all cuddled up with people, kids doing sweet gestures, or other images that radiate pure happiness, we get a warm and fuzzy feeling, like sipping on a hot cup of cocoa on a cold, rainy day.
Kids and animals have a dose of curiosity for one another. And when they are together, they create a trustworthy bond that we can only admire. Thanks to Sujata Setia, a British photographer, who’s guilty of perpetuating the innocent relationship of this match made in heaven, we get to witness the joy this duo feels when they are together.
Photographs can freeze time and tell us the most touching, funny, or curious stories, especially when it comes to older images. Seeing our grandparents portrayed in the past not only generates nostalgia but also makes us feel a lot of pride in our roots.
Like all of us, famous people aren’t immune to aging. Some of them have changed beyond recognition, while the others are still just as good-looking, if not even better, as they were a decade ago.
If there is one thing we can neither deny nor slow down, it is the rhythm of the hands of a clock. Seconds, minutes, hours, days, go by quickly and leave traces not only on people, but also on things. This is how objects are transformed with the passing of time and how they change their shape, color, and appearance so much that they seem unrecognizable when compared to a new specimen.
Generally, when people see individuals with vitiligo, they see a rare skin condition, but photographer- Elisabeth Van Aalderen sees something different. She sees beauty and positivity in it, so she decided to capture women with the condition on camera and use her photographs to make a statement that says: “Most times, what sets us apart is what makes us beautiful, and most importantly, you can be comfortable in your own skin, regardless of any skin condition.”
At 31 years old, Grace Kelly was a retired actress who had been married to a prince for 5 years and had 2 kids. At the same age, Charlize Theron had an Oscar under her belt and was still single. Through photographs we can get a glimpse of how these celebrities have dealt with their lives, some living faster, others keeping the reflection on their faces of the children they once were.
It’s good to have something lasting and steady in a world where everything changes so fast. For many of us, our pets and their love are the things we can always count on, no matter what happens. They sleep hugging the same old toys for years on end and they love cuddling with us, just like they used to do when they were little kittens and puppies, even though they’re all grown up now. These lovely sights keep us warm, and it’s even better when we manage to make those moments last in photographs.
Parents always want to create great memories for their kids and cameras are integral for this. They continuously try to record their children’s most memorable moments, but photographs don’t always show their cute side. Sometimes pictures capture precisely the opposite, and what begins as an innocent shot ends up becoming a funny family story.
It’s rare that we see true happiness, but it’s possible to capture these warm moments in photos. And even though these kinds of photographs are online now instead of in family albums, they still make us feel the sweetest emotions.
Celebrities are idolized and loved by their fans because they’ve entertained them all their lives just to keep a smile on their faces. But before they ever hit the screens, they lived in a phase quite unknown to their fans — their childhood.
The Mountain’s on-screen persona from the hit TV show Game of Thrones instills fear in the hearts of his opponents. But off-screen he is an amicable person who enjoys the simple pleasures of life, like playing with his daughter, taking selfies, and obviously eating pizzas — giant pizzas for that matter.
Cats are independent, playful, and joyous. But a recent study also proves that they are complete jerks. The study found that cats can understand when you call them, but mostly they try to ignore you unless obviously, you are going to treat them with some delectable food. But that changes nothing for us, the cat lovers. These adorable little furry creatures are and will always be a source of endless love.
Pets are cute and they always try to bring joy to our lives. However, sometimes they can be very demanding and if their demands are not fulfilled or if they don’t like something we did, they know how to look at us with the perfect sad face that could make any heart melt. Luckily, to cheer them up, all you need to do is simply cuddle with them.
If you think that getting married is only about exchanging rings and having a party, you’re wrong. Today, any wedding celebration can be made in a different way compared to others. But the most important thing to remember is not to go too far! For example, ask the guests if they want a sushi wedding cake or if the bride wants to spend 30 minutes trying to get her ring out of a box.
Today we take dozens of photos every day and don’t even appreciate them. Photographs are not only a way to save a memory but also a chance to see how fast the time goes by. When you try to recreate an old picture, you can see exactly what has changed.
Living close to humans has had a profound impact on the sitting habits of cats and dogs. They have begun imitating the way humans sit. They sit in front of laptops pretending to be doing serious work, chill next to you on the couch while watching movies, and even give you the angry stare, sitting on your chair, if you are late in serving them the dinner.
As Kurt Vonnegut once said, “True terror is to wake up one morning and discover that your high school class is running the country.” Indeed, when we’re in high school, it’s really hard to imagine our classmates becoming famous and popular all over the world. However, there are plenty of photographs showing us that celebrities were once ordinary people with their own strong opinions and flaws just like us before their talents were recognized by a wide audience.
