The Top Ten Best GHOST PHOTOGRAPHS Ever Taken


The other night I happened to catch Ghost Hunters on the Sci-Fi Channel. It’s an hour-long show that follows the members of TAPS (The Atlantic Paranormal Society) as they investigate reputedly haunted locations, in an attempt to document and de-bunk supposed ghostly infestations. I'd never seen the show before but I came away very impressed by these guys: they're regular working joes – the founders are Roto-Rooter plumbers by day – who do their investigations on nights and weekends in a completely professional and ethical manner. They scrutinize everything and make thorough reports to the proprietors of the sites they look into. If there's nothing that can't be explained, they say so. If there is bizarre stuff going on that doesn't fit on the charts, they report that too, without embellishing it for what it might or might not be.

Glasbläser Dr. Geissler - - Glas - Hochspannung - Vakuum - Licht


Dr. Heinrich Geissler Erfindungen sind die Vorläufer der modernen Leuchtstofflampen, der Glühlampen und Röntgenröhren. Für das evakuieren seiner Gasentladungsröhren hat er eine Quecksilber Vakuumpumpe erfunden, die heute zwar nur noch als historisch gilt, die aber eine für die damaligen üblichen Kolbenpumpen sehr grosse Verbesserung darstellte. Damals war ein Minimaldruck von 2 - 3 Torr erreichbar, mit der Geisslerschen Quecksilber-Glaspumpe nach dem Barometerprinzip konnte aber ein Druck von 0.008 Torr erzielt werden. Also eine Steigerung des Evakuierungsgrades um das Dreihundertfache.
