Hoshizuna Beach ( 360 degree video - 4K )
This is a 360 degree video, what i made at one sunny day in Hoshizuna Beach, Japan. This Star Sand Beach in Okinawa is a great destination.
I used Insta 360 one with selfie stick from Insta. The selfie stick disappear pretty good :)

9 New Amazing & Strange Science Discoveries
From bees using special biotechnology to attract bees to finding out your artificial sweetener might actually be bacteria poop!
5 A kinky flower with a taste for trickery
This little flower tends to show different “romantic preferences” than most. Meet the Aspidistra Elatior flower, which ignores the bees and butterflies, and instead relies on gnats to take care of its pollination needs. Yuck. It lives all around the world but is native to Kuroshima, a southern Japanese island, and makes a point of imitating mushrooms. These Aspidistra are popular houseplants, because they are very resilient, and have pretty purple flowers. However, they keep their fleshy flowers half-buried and bloom right above the ground, burrowed in leaf residue, and they emit a musky sort of odor that really isn’t flowery at all...
4 Modified eggs might help win the cancer fight
Most medicine tastes horrible in one way or another – sour, bitter, gritty, gross. So what if it was pre-packaged and neatly camouflaged in your breakfast? Researchers at the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology in Japan came up with a strange idea: chicken doctors. They used genetic engineering to produce hens which are capable of laying a special kind of egg. These eggs contain a certain protein, which is essentially cancer medicine. As of July this year, there are three hens that successfully lay these magic eggs every other day or so, and the team is looking to build up a larger, more stable coop. The protein in question can currently be found in medicines such as Avonex, and is mostly used to treat multiple sclerosis. However, recent studies suggest that it also has a future in cancer therapy, specifically in dealing with skin cancer and hepatitis.
3 Turkey poop could become the new coal
A new study suggests that turkeys may have found a more useful place in our lives than landing on Thanksgiving platters. They might help provide us with eco-friendly fuel. Right now, about 73% of renewable energy worldwide comes from biomass, but the way of producing the crops for it is still a burden on the ecosystem. Alongside that, we’re also having more and more trouble with disposing of poultry poop in an environmentally safe way. So naturally, someone came up with the idea of solving one problem with the other. Researchers came together and found a way of processing poop from turkeys, chickens and other poultry, which results in a biofuel quite similar to coal. They ran tests and found that this new fuel produces more raw energy than the biomass we currently use, and moreover, the levels of greenhouse gasses emissions from it are significantly lower than the current fossil fuels. They’re hoping to replace about 10% of the coal used in electricity generation with poultry poo, for starters, and run more tests on a larger scale to get a better grip on its possible benefits.
2 Snail seduction is a human thing too
There was a recent discovery in Japan that turned our snail classification systems up on their heads, and brought up some human puzzles too. Most land snails have shells that coil to the right, with some rare individuals coiling to the left. These are called “mirror image snails” and were considered a distinct species. What that means is that the so-called “lefty snails” have their genitals on the opposite side of - and this is where it gets gross - their faces. Yep, snails mate face-to-face. So by obvious logic, lefties and righties shouldn’t be able to hook up, but now it looks like they can. A study led by the University of Nottingham has found that differently-coiled types of Japanese land snails are able to twist their genitals around in order to adapt to their chosen partners. Sounds painful, right? But it has huge medical implications. You see, ”mirror image genes” exist in many animals, including humans. This peculiar snail discovery could help us understand why internal organs are placed according to a fixed pattern, why it sometimes goes wrong, and how that influences the genetic life of our own species. Hopefully we won’t have to twist our privates, though.
1 Living in lava: new houses on the moon
This is the Marius Hills Skylight, a big hole in the Moon which might soon become the first human moon base. Basically, it’s an open lava tube. They’re formed when a lava flow develops a hard crust, which thickens and forms a roof above the still-flowing lava stream. Once the lava stops flowing, the tunnel sometimes drains, forming a hollow void. It’s the safest shelter for the astronauts, because space suits alone aren’t enough protection against the Moon’s insanely harsh conditions. Vice President Mike Pence announced at a meeting of the National Space Council that America’s space focus will be redirected from Mars to the Moon, to hopefully build the first human footholds outside our home planet.
