POPSLargest, Strangest & Scariest Collective Activities in the World "As humans we have a difficult time comprehending large numbers, and vast collections of people perhaps in particular. There is something simply surreal about a pilgrimage that attracts more people than the population of Texas or a festival that draws thirty thousand revelers deep into one of the harshest deserts on Earth. These three events are vastly different in terms of geography, history and purpose but are all impressive in their own way and right as these images show."

POPSAnother Great Depression? "I've been asked many times whether we will have another Great Depression," said David M. Kennedy, a Stanford University history professor and the author of "Freedom From Fear," a Pulitzer Prize-winning history of the Depression and World War II. "My standard answer is that we won't have that one again -- I'd be surprised to have one of that seriousness and duration. But that doesn't mean we wouldn't have a catastrophe we haven't seen before." Thank you very much Mr. President.

POPSAlpha Centauri may have 'Earth-like' worlds They have found evidence of larger planets around stars, because of a 'wobble' in the star as it is pulled by the planet's gravity. Simulations of the Alpha Centauri system pointed to planets existing, and they may be more earth-like if they are in a zone around the stars where liquid water can exist. The idea is to compare around 90,000 observations over the next five years, enough so that the 'wobble of a smaller planet can be detected.
