Ghazni, Afghanistan
1946
Maynard Owen Williams

"Oxen and donkeys tread the bygone glories at Ghazni, seat of conquerors. To Ghazni, Afghanistan's great empire builder Mahmud carried back the plunder of India almost ten centuries ago. Ghazni's splendor died in 1152 when the Indian prince Ala-ud-Din gave it fire and sword. In 1839 the British stormed Ghazni and blew in this gate."

—From "Back to Afghanistan," October 1946, National Geographic magazine

A U.S. flag dries on a clothesline after a 1993 flood in Iowa. Already saturated, Des Moines received a downpour of 8 inches (20.32 centimeters) of rain in just four hours. The result was a wall of water, 15 feet (4.5 meters) above flood level, barreling through the city.

Milky Way galaxy
Date Unknown
NASA/Daniel Wang, University of Massachusetts

"The center of the Milky Way galaxy blazes in this x-ray mosaic 900 light-years across. Our galactic center is a turbulent region, 25,000 light-years from Earth, packed with black holes, white dwarfs, neutron stars, and supernovae in a sea of multimillion-degree gas. Chandra's x-ray eyes show梖or the first time with such clarity梩he interplay between stars, gas, and dust. By detecting high-energy radiation, Chandra offers new perspectives on a clandestine universe."

Montana
1984
Sam Abell

A mare and colt cast shadows on a barn in Montana. The state is also home to the Pryor Mountain herd, a group of wild free-roaming horses which were once protected as "living symbols of the historic and pioneer spirit of the West" through the U.S. Wild Free-Roaming Horse and Burro Act of 1971. Many of the act's protections were abolished by a December 2004 law that legalized the slaughter of wild horses.

In the Crab Nebula
Date Unknown
Palomar Observatory

"At the [Crab Nebula's] core lies a pulsar, a type of neutron star, discovered by radio astronomers in 1968. Only 12 miles [19 kilometers] across, it spins 30 times a second, spewing out high-energy particles. As particles flow out, they lose energy and emit radiation in longer wavelengths. Highlighted in false color, an optical image shows intermediate-energy particles from the pulsar (blue) along with material ejected into space by the supernova explosion itself (green and red)."

Katmai National Park and Preserve, Alaska
1969
Winfield Parks

"A 1912 eruption [from Mount Martin at Katmai National Park and Preserve] spewed ash as far as Washington state, shredded clothes on lines a hundred miles (160 kilometers) away, but, amazingly killed no one. From a new vent, Novarupta, incandescent pumice flowed down the valley in a glowing avalanche. Woodland pickets, killed by hot mudflows, spike the pale plain."

"'The legacy of the [French Revolution] is still very much alive,' said Jean-Not Jeanneney, energetic director of the bustling Bicentennial Mission, headquartered near the Eiffel Tower. 'A nation is rich in its memory. And the roots of 20th-century France are in its founding myth. I'd like all the youth of this nation to know its story梥o full of passion and surprise.'"

Jerusalem, Israel
1984
James L. Stanfield

"With an average birthrate of six children per family, the ultra-Orthodox population in Jerusalem is surging. [In 1996] roughly 30 percent of the city's 420,000 Jews [were] ultra-Orthodox, as [were] 50 percent of the schoolchildren [such as the Ultra-Orthodox men and boys at this Hasidic temple].

"If trends continue, the ultra-Orthodox population will increase by 70 percent here by the year 2010 and will exert significant influence on the city's destiny."

India
Circa 1920

"The caption on the back of this picture from our archives is short and cold: 'India. Watering a man without breaking caste rules.' For an Untouchable, a member of the lowest Hindu social class, the rules are many, with prohibitions on everything from physical contact with higher castes to drinking from central village wells."

A male American bighorn sheep allows the presence of a younger male among his herd (pictured here). Order among males is established in horn-splintering clashes, in which the frequent winner gains leadership of the herd, and pick of the breeding females.

Phuket, Thailand
1994
Jodi Cobb

White sand beaches, clear blue water, and ideal temperatures have made Thailand's Phuket Island a tropical paradise for visitors. Phuket is Thailand's largest island, located in the Andaman Sea, and its idyllic conditions have made tourism one of the pillars of its economy. Ten years after this photograph was taken, Phuket Island suffered severe damage from a massive tsunami triggered by an earthquake in the Indian Ocean in December 2004. Thai officials have begun a years-long program to rebuild Phuket and lure back visitors.

When gangster Benjamin "Bugsy" Siegel opened his landmark Flamingo hotel and casino in 1946 on the Las Vegas Strip, it helped usher in a seemingly endless jackpot for the city's tourism and casino trades. In 1996, the year this photo was taken, four mega-casinos made their debut on the Strip: the New York-New York, Monte Carlo, the Orleans, and the Stratosphere.
