Now you can look through their eyes with the first 3D game thatrecreates the vision of different species based on scientific evidence. The online s
6、imulation, created by the French3D design company Dassault Systmes, with the guidanceof veterinary ophthalmologist (眼科专家)DidierSchmidt-Morand, mimics (模仿)the vision of five animals cats dogs, rats, hawks and bees as aplayer steers them through Place Vend洀攀 in Paris.Due to differences in field of vie
7、w, colourperception and night vision, for example, sight can be drastically differentfrom species to species. In terms of performance, eyes are as variable asdifferent models of cars, says Schmidt-Morand. The game was created by using existingvirtual models of the square then applying effects based
8、on descriptions ofeach animals vision. Dassaults 3D software allows a scene to be modified byadding blur or changing the colours, angle of vision and depth of field. Although it was easy to recreate visioninferior to that of humans cats and dogs, forexample, have trouble distinguishing shades of red
9、 replicating features that we are unable to see was a challenge. Hawks have moredetailed vision than ours, whereas dogs are better at seeing movement and havea wider field of view. We used virtual cameras to precisely simulatelarger viewing angles but the result made people nauseous(令人作呕的), says Sch
10、midt-Morand. So we tweaked(微调) the model to give a sense of the wider view without sticking toreality. The rats view also departs from reality:because they are near-sighted, everything more than 15 centimetres away is ablur, so they typically move close to walls to help them navigate. A ratwould nev

The simulation for this animal is supplemented with a map inthe top right corner to help determine the rats position: because of theirlimited eyesight, most landmarks are obscured.The game is intended as an educationalresource and

17、 ofweather. It is so hot and active that even the Sunsgravity cannot hold its atmosphere in check! Energy flows away from the Suntoward the Earth in a stream of electrified particles that move at speedsaround a million miles per hour. These particles are called plasma, and thestream of plasma coming
18、 from the Sun is called the solar wind. The more activethe Sun, the stronger the solar wind.The solar wind constantly streams toward theEarth, but dont worry because a protective magneticfields surrounds our planet. The same magnetic field that makes your compasspoint north also steers the particles
19、 from the Sun to the north and southpoles. The charged particles become trapped in magnetic belts around the Earth.When a large blast of solar wind crashes into the Earths magnetic field first gets squeezed and then the magnetic fieldlines break and reconnect.The breaking and reconnecting of the mag
20、neticfield lines can cause atomic particles called electrons trapped in the belts tofall into the Earths atmosphere at the poles. As theelectrons fall into the Earth, they collide with gas molecules in theatmosphere, creating flashes of light in the sky. Each atmospheric gas glows a different color.
21、Oxygen and nitrogen glows red and green and nitrogen glows violet-purple. Asthese various colors glow and dance in the night sky, they create the NorthernLights and the Southern Lights.Watching auroras(北极光)is fun and exciting, but normally you can only see them in places far northlike Alaska and Can
22、ada. The movement of the aurora across the sky is usuallyslow enough to easily follow with your eyes but they can also pulsate(跳动), flicker(闪烁), or even move like waves.During solar maximum, 5 auroras are seen as far south as Florida, even Mexico!Aurorasoften seem to be very close to the ground, but
23、 the lowest aurora is still about100 kilometers above the ground, a distance much higher than clouds are formedor airplanes can fly. A typical aurora band can be thousands of kilometerslong, a few hundred kilometers high, but only a few hundred meters thick.We hope you are able to travel to far-nort
