...swish of black hat with carnation-red sprigs against a brilliant yellow and orange doorway. But Vuillard was a Nabi colorist more out of friendship than conviction, and even the dramatic Grandmother Michaud in Silhouette, with its imposing seated figure silhouetted against a carmine table and a molten-gold wall, points the way to the more subdued domestic interiors that would be his true forte. If color was the Nabi language, Vuillard's hues were the soft murmur of parlor conversation in the burnished glow of lamplight. The show features more than two dozen of his interior scenes, masterfully cluttered...
Other sites are best enjoyed by car, like Ubehebe Crater, where winds scream over the rim of a stunning half-mile-wide, 500-ft.-deep crater formed 4,000 years ago, when rising molten basalt met cold, shallow groundwater. The mixture exploded violently, blowing off a massive lid of sedimentary rock and blasting cinders over 6 sq. mi. The multihued rocks that ring the interior of the crater were used for location shots in the original 1977 Star Wars...

...University of New Mexico and Mark Boslough of the Sandia National Laboratory, is planetary rings. They speculate that a large asteroid hit the Earth at an oblique angle and plowed across the surface for some distance before ricocheting away. In the process, the theory goes, it sprayed molten and vaporized Earth and asteroid chunks into space, where some pieces went into orbit and eventually formed an opaque ring...
