The fossil deposits of Liaoning, China, not only preserve dinosaurs, but also early birds, such as these delicate and beautiful specimens of the 120- to 125-million-year-old species Confuciusornis sanctus. This bird – noted for its two long, ribbon-like tail feathers – is one of the most commonly discovered animals in the Yixian and Jiufotang formations of the early Cretaceous, with many hundreds of specimens now in Chinese museums. This means researchers can ask questions about variation within the population, an unusual opportunity in a fossil species.

Just north of Chicago in Wilmette, Illinois, this tiered white temple is the oldest surviving Bahá’í House of Worship and the second ever constructed. The religious center’s lacy dome, alcoves, and pillars were designed by Louis Bourgeois and completed in 1953. Crushed quartz and white Portland cement give the building a milky radiance, especially at night. To prevent the concrete surface from appearing cold or industrial, fifth-generation stone carver John Earley allowed larger pebbles to lie partially exposed.
