This picture shows the Orion constelaltion over El Castillo, a famous piece of Mayan Architecture. This picture looks extraordinary. The suprising thing about this structure, is that it can actually be used as a calender and astronomically aligns with certain stars. It can also align with our sun and moon. This picture was taken today, December 21st which is the summer solstice but more commonly known for the supposed end of the world by the Myans. Fortunatley it did not :)
