This article presents a series of large, color photographs and their scientific explanation. The first photo shows an enormous yellow jacket nest that has filled an entire car. Scientists speculate that an unusual warm winter allowed a higher number of the insects to remain alive, hence the bigger nests. The next photo is of a coral reef in Hawaii. NASA worked with marine biologists to map the world's reefs. The final picture is a new, super-fast diesel race car.
