Hand touching a plasma globe. The device displays glowing tendrils of plasma within a glass sphere. At its centre is a high-voltage electrode, and the sphere is filled with a mixture of nobles gases, such as neon and argon. The high voltage breaks down the gas into a conducting glowing plasma. The glowing tendrils are hotter than the surrounding gas, and rise through it. If a conducting object is placed against the outside of the sphere, such as the hand at bottom here, it provides a path of less resistance and attracts a bright stream of plasma. The plasma lamp was invented by Nikola Tesla, but this design was built and popularised by Bill Parker in the 1970s.

Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) in a fattening pen. This fish is prized as food, and commercial aquaculture operations help to regulate the supply for the market. The wild population of Atlantic bluefin tuna has crashed by as much as 90% in the last 40 years, due to overfishing and unsustainable aquaculture relying on wild-caught stocks captured before breeding age. Some efforts have been made to rear the fish in a sustainable way. The bluefin tuna remains classified as an «Endangered species» by the IUCN. Filmed off Barbate, Andalusia, Spain.
