Smallest Animals On Earth
At 1.4 pounds and 4.9 inches tall, Ducky, a yappy short-coat Chihuahua from Charlton (Massachusetts, USA), holds the Guinness World Record for the world's smallest living dog (by height). Ducky succeeds Danka Kordak of Slovakia, a Chihuahua who measured 5.4 inches tall. The smallest dog ever, according to Guinness, was a dwarf Yorkshire terrier who stood 2.8 inches tall.
World’s Smallest Fish, only 7.9 mm (0.3-inch) long
On January 2006, the world's smallest fish was discovered on the Indonesian island of Sumatra: a member of the carp family of fish, the Paedocypris progenetica. It is the world's smallest vertebrate or backboned animal; only 7.9 mm (0.3 inches) long.

We've posted some animal-related posts now... but after this very post about the top 10 smallest animals on earth, the real question that surfaced would be, what's next?
This will makes you go wow !!! the top 7 Incredible Natural Phenomena that you've never seen, believe me... prepare and begin..
Idaho's Fire Rainbow
The atmospheric phenomenon known as a circumhorizon (tal) arc, or "Fire rainbow", appears when the sun is high in the sky (i.e., higher than 58° above the horizon), and its light passes through diaphanous, high-altitude cirrus clouds made up of hexagonal plate crystals. Sunlight entering the crystals' vertical side faces and leaving through their bottom faces is refracted (as through a prism) and separated into an array of visible colors.
When the plate crystals in cirrus clouds are aligned optimally (i.e., with their faces parallel to the ground), the resulting display is a brilliant spectrum of colors reminiscent of a rainbow. The example shown above was captured on camera as it hung for about an hour across a several-hundred square mile area of sky above northern Idaho (near the Washington border) on 3 June 2006.
Venezuela's Everlasting Storm
The mysterious "Relámpago del Catatumbo" (Catatumbo lightning) is a unique natural phenomenon in the world. Located on the mouth of the Catatumbo river at Lake Maracaibo (Venezuela), the phenomenon is a cloud-to-cloud lightning that forms a voltage arc more than five kilometre high during 140 to 160 nights a year, 10 hours a night, and as many as 280 times an hour. This almost permanent storm occurs over the marshlands where the Catatumbo River feeds into Lake Maracaibo and it is considered the greatest single generator of ozone in the planet, judging from the intensity of the cloud-to-cloud discharge and great frequency. The area sees an estimated 1,176,000 electrical discharges per year, with an intensity of up to 400,000 amperes, and visible up to 400 km away. This is the reason why the storm is also known as the Maracaibo Beacon as light has been used for navigation by ships for ages. The collision with the winds coming from the Andes Mountains causes the storms and associated lightning, a result of electrical discharges through ionised gases, specifically the methane created by the decomposition of organic matter in the marshes. Being lighter than air, the gas rises up to the clouds, feeding the storms. Some local environmentalists hope to put the area under the protection of UNESCO, as it is an exceptional phenomenon, the greatest source of its type for regenerating the planet's ozone layer.
Honduras' Rain of Fishes
The Rain of Fish is common in Honduran Folklore. It occurs in the Departamento de Yoro, between the months of May and July. Witnesses of this phenomenon state that it begins with a dark cloud in the sky followed by lightning, thunder, strong winds and heavy rain for 2 to 3 hours. Once the rain has stopped, hundreds of living fish are found on the ground. People take the fish home to cook and eat them. Since 1998 a festival known as "Festival de la Lluvia de Peces" (Rain of Fish Festival) is celebrated every year in the city of Yoro, Departamento de Yoro, Honduras.
Morocco's Climbing Goats
Goats on trees are found mostly only in Morocco. The goats climb them because they like to eat the fruit of the argan tree, which is similar to an olive. Farmers actually follow the herds of goats as they move from tree to tree. Not because it is so strange to see goats in trees and the farmers like to point and stare, but because the fruit of the tree has a nut inside, which the goats can't digest, so they spit it up or excrete it which the farmers collect. The nut contains 1-3 kernels, which can be ground to make argan oil used in cooking and cosmetics. This oil has been collected by the people of the region for hundreds of years, but like many wild and useful things these days, the argan tree is slowly disappearing due to over-harvesting for the tree's wood and overgrazing by goats.
As a result a group of people and organizations have banded together to try to save the tree. To do so one of the primary locations where the trees grow has been declared a biosphere preserve. It was also decided that by making the world aware of the oil, it's great taste and supposed anti-aging properties, would create a demand for it. However, the people who planned to market the oil could not envision people wanting to put an oil on their food or their face that was collected from goat excrement. As a result, a campaign is being led to ban grazing on the trees by goats during certain parts of the year to allow the fruit to ripen and fall off on its own. The fruit is then collected and turned into oil by oil cooperatives. So far, this arrangement seems to be working. (Photo: Remo Saviaar)
Brazilian's longest wave on the Earth
Twice a year, between the months of February and March, the Atlantic Ocean waters roll up the Amazon river, in Brazil, generating the longest wave on the Earth. The phenomenon, known as the Pororoca, is caused by the tides of the Atlantic Ocean wich meet the mouth of the river. This tidal bore generates waves up to 12 feet high which can last for over half an hour.
The name "Pororoca" comes from the indigenous Tupi language, where it translates into "great destructive noise". The wave can be heard about 30 minutes before its arrival, and it's so powerful that it can destroy anything, including trees, local houses and all kind of animals.
The wave has become popular with surfers. Since 1999, an annual championship has been held in São Domingos do Capim. However, surfing the Pororoca is especially dangerous, as the water contains a significant amount of debris from the margins of the river (often, entire trees). The record that we could find for surfing the longest distance on the Pororoca was set by Picuruta Salazar, a brazilian surfer who, in 2003, managed to ride the wave for 37 minutes and travel 12.5 kilometers. A surfer's dream: riding an almost never-ending wave.
Kerala's (extraterrestrial?) Red Rain
From 25 July to 23 September 2001, red rain sporadically fell on the southern Indian state of Kerala. Heavy downpours occurred in which the rain was coloured red, staining clothes with an appearance similar to that of blood. Yellow, green, and black rain was also reported.
It was initially suspected that the rains were coloured by fallout from a hypothetical meteor burst, but a study commissioned by the Government of India found that the rains had been coloured by airborne spores from a locally prolific terrestrial alga. Then in early 2006, the coloured rains of Kerala suddenly rose to worldwide attention after media reports of a conjecture that the coloured particles were extraterrestrial cells, proposed by Godfrey Louis and Santhosh Kumar of the Mahatma Gandhi University in Kottayam. The terrestrial origins of the solid material in the red rain were supported by an investigation into the isotopic ratios of nitrogen and carbon.
Denmark's Black Sun
During spring in Denmark, at approximately one half an hour before sunset, flocks of more than a million European starlings (sturnus vulgaris) gather from all corners to join in the incredible formations shown above. This phenomenon is called Black Sun (in Denmark), and can be witnessed in early spring throughout the marshlands of western Denmark, from March through to the middle of April. The starlings migrate from the south and spend the day in the meadows gathering food, sleeping in the reeds during the night.

Knowing more could hurt more or less, but anyway this is Mysteries of Area 51 if you happens to want to know more.
Is a research center where scientists conduct research activities that are equipped with various facilities and devices needed to support the achievement of goals and objectives of the study. In general, every developed or developing countries are very concerned to have a research center.
Advances in science and technology in a country, is also determined by the results of research developed by the country concerned.
Of the many research centers are internationally renowned, is Area 51, a military testing facility and the development of a highly secret (top secret), which is operated by the United States Air Force. Area 51 is located in the area of training and testing in Nevada. Location Area 51 is located in Lincoln Country is 115.5 km north of Las Vegas with an area of 103 square kilometers range.
Area 51 was founded in 1955 that was originally intended to test the development of spy planes the United States U-2 Series is newly created. U-2 aircraft can fly up to 70 000 feet altitude. During the U-2 operations have been flying freely over the territory of the Soviet Union until the end of the U-2 plane was shot down in 1960. Finally, U-2 painted black in the 1960s. As for the fool as if the apparition of an unknown celestial body called UFO (Unditified Flying Object), a U-2 painted with a shiny silver color. Since then the Area 51 continues to evolve and be used for a variety of developing a project called Project Black (Black Project) consisting of a series Blackbird aircraft, serial Stealth Fighter and Stealth series Boomber. Blackbird is a continuation of the series U-2 series which started in 1962 with the design of type A-12 and SR-71. For example, type SR-71 has reached a cruising speed of 3500 km / h with an effective cruising altitude of 4830 km.
Stealth Fighter series is the first stealth fighter aircraft designed in the late 1970's. The aircraft was operating very well at night. Type that is known is the F-117 Nighthawk. Stealth or Stealth Series is an idea that the aircraft free of radar. Aircraft cruising speed is around 1040 km / h with a good height as far as 2110 km. Achievement of operation has been demonstrated in the Gulf War and was commissioned to carry out the targets that have been cooked.
Boomber Stealth series is a continuation of the stealth aircraft Stealth Fighter series which has been developed extensively. Stealth aircraft known series is the type of Black Manta and B2. Cruising faster and more elusive on the radar of the Stealth Fighter series. Although even so, the attack strategy is dependent on information from the target.
Currently future projects is formed to develop anti-radar technology (Stealth Technology), unmanned surveillance aircraft (UAVs or Unmanned aerial vehicles) and aircraft (UCAVs, Unmanned combat aerial vehicles), allows to surf with high speed cruising area very high, known as "AURORA". Because the planes are unmanned, the plane is believed to be driven with tremendous speed. In other words, men that can really make a celestial body is unknown. Along with it came again the idea of developing X-33 spacecraft that technology has not been tested. However, X-33 spacecraft was believed to be a version of Aurora that is WHITE (for the sake of peace).
In line with the research of advanced fighter aircraft, also obtained data on the presence of celestial beings to the Earth, better known as the Alien. Finally we come to the question how likely is the existence of aliens in the universe. For that matter, Area 51 has been involved in the investigation of alien technology. Based on the issues and was widely believed by many experts, that a team of Area 51 has been found and secretly investigate UFO wreckage found in the Roswell area, the state of New Mexico, USA, 1947. Although there are not any clear evidence, some outside experts have suspected that the Area 51 scientists claimed to have and maintain an alien creature in a very secret place. The claim is reinforced by the recognition of a physicist Bob Lazar, in 1989 that he had worked at one research site located in the south of Area 51 and Area 51 has been claimed that testing aircraft extraordinary sophistication and also has to communicate with aliens.
The existence of aliens in Area 51 has led a conspiracy theory that is the result of collecting data from the ruins of a crashed alien craft in Roswell and the recognition of Bob Lazar has been involved in activities such as meetings or contacts with the state in the space with adequate equipment, the development of highly-energy weapons high and the activities that are widespread throughout the world.
Based on the outstanding issues of this conspiracy theory of the activities carried out at Groom Lake is located in the vicinity of Area 51. But so far there has not been a clear scientific explanation to explain the existence of a real alien. Business can be done is to collect data in the form of UFO reports and photos snapped by an amateur.
The information above of course will never can solve all the mysteries of Area 51, as it will remain a mystery as far as we lived.
