We told you earlier about the 350 eARTh exhibit, "the world's first planetary art show for the climate." The week-long exhibition has wrapped up, with amazing aerial photographs from around the world rolling in (including a very special contribution by Radiohead's own Thom Yorke). Bill McKibben wrote, "newspapers are calling [it] 'the largest group show in the planet's history,' or 'the first art show visible from outer space,' or just 'big art.'"

You can read more updates from around the world on the 350 eARTh site. Here are some of our favorite images.

A wife’s frustration turned to tears when she saw why her husband stayed late

Sometimes, people do not realize what their loved ones are sacrificing without a complaint. A farmer's wife realized that about her husband when she saw him having dinner while entertaining their daughter after a long day of work. The wife, Katie Spence Pugh, shared that realization about her cotton farmer husband, Eugene, in a now-deleted post on Facebook, per the Daily Mail. She also revealed the profound moment she realized that her husband was actually making more sacrifices than her, even though she was tired and frustrated because of his late working hours.

Before the shift in perspective

"I snapped this picture the other night at the end of a long day. I was tired. I was irritated," Pugh wrote about a picture of her husband having dinner, as their little daughter, Charlotte, sat on the table and started talking to him, while also eating his food. "I had sent my husband a text telling him that I knew it wouldn’t make a difference, but I wanted him to know that I was feeling fed up with how much he works and with all that I have to do every day by myself," she recounted, per Love What Matters. Her full-time job, cooking food, bathing the kids, weekend trips without her husband and maintaining a house at the same time was taking a toll on her and she was "resenting" her husband for having to do it all alone because of his work hours.

Their toddler damaged a neighbor's car. The 'invoice' they got was a total shock.

It’s a moment every parent of a young child dreads: the accidental, and potentially expensive, damaging of someone else’s property. For one family, that moment came when their three-year-old opened a car door a little too enthusiastically, dinging the neighbor’s vehicle parked nearby.

As reported by Metro, the parents immediately did the right thing. Feeling terrible about the accident, they found their neighbor, explained what had happened, and offered to pay for all the repairs out of pocket to avoid involving insurance companies. They braced themselves for a hefty bill.

Her manager at Walmart forced her to work on her day off. It made her a millionaire.

For Rebeca Gonzalez, a Walmart employee in Los Angeles, this past Labor Day was supposed to be a relaxing holiday spent barbecuing with her family. But a last-minute call from her manager demanding she come in for a three-hour shift turned her day of rest into a day of work—and ultimately, the luckiest day of her life.

“It was Labor Day, and they only needed me for three hours. I wanted to obviously be home with my family because we planned to barbecue,” Gonzalez recalled.

9-year-old with autism shocks the world with an IQ higher than Einstein

At just nine years old, Adhara Pérez Sánchez of Mexico City has an IQ of 162—a score higher than the estimated IQs of both Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking. But her journey to becoming a celebrated child prodigy was paved with cruelty and misunderstanding.

Diagnosed with Asperger’s syndrome, a condition on the autism spectrum, Pérez struggled to fit in at school. Her unique way of interacting with the world made her a target for bullies. Her mother, Nallely Sanchez, recalled a particularly devastating incident in an interview with the Yucatan Times.

A 97-year-old was relaxing when 5 teens suddenly appeared in her home. Then they saved her life.

A group of five teenagers on vacation in Hampshire, England, are being hailed as heroes after their quick thinking saved a 97-year-old woman from a potentially fatal house fire, as reported by Island Echo.

The teens—Sacha Hewson, Mark Meyer, Izzy Meade, Matt Pritchard, and Elliott Brown—were walking back from the beach when they noticed something alarming. “We were walking back from the beach and walked past the lady’s house and we noticed there was smoke filtering from the front door,” Hewson recalled.

In fact, there are many other applications Swiffer’s mop handle and cloths can be used for to make your home cleaner, beyond just your floors. Here are some things your Swiffer can also clean:

Do brother or sister pairs stay closer over the years?

Which sibling pairs are closer, brothers or sisters? Research answers the age-old debate.

The sibling dynamic brings out the best in some people. At least in theory, if two people share blood, shouldn’t that result in a feeling of closeness? Growing up, I always envied my peers who had legitimate friendships within their families. In contrast, I fought constantly with my immediate older brother—we’ve only settled into a healthier, more comfortable relationship as adults, with teenage angst in the rear view.

But everyone’s situation is different. Some people lose touch with siblings as time flows on, pulled apart by life's responsibilities. For others, the maturity of adulthood heals once-festering wounds. Sibling dynamics ebb and flow like any friendship, but is there a discernible difference between brother and sister pairs throughout life? If you consult the research, you’ll find some interesting trends.

Solar power times 10: MIT's new concrete battery may revolutionize green energy storage

One of the major challenges facing renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar energy, is storage. It's one thing to collect the energy; it's a whole other massive undertaking to find ways to store it until needed.

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology may have completely resolved this issue. They've discovered a scientific breakthrough in concrete, and it could change everything about how we store and use green energy.
