His studies in veterinary medicine were interrupted by the 1990s war in the Balkans, when he arrived in the USA.

Video of the Week #44 May 24th, 2012:

From: Amazing Video of Solar Eclipse Shows Sun?s Structure by Michael Moyer at Observations.

Source: Cory Poole

Photographer Cory Poole captured and compiled timelapse images of the recent annular solar eclipse with a filter that allows light from hydrogen atoms moving from the 2nd excited state to the 1st excited state to be visible, giving us a spectacular view of the Sun?s lower atmosphere and a video that stands out from the others captured this week.
