Hi
,
Notice the flight decks of these three aircraft. The two helicopters have a clear dome completely over the pilot's head so there can be a wide viewing area. Same goes for the P-51 fighter.
There is a very strange fish, called the Pacific Barreleye, that has an exact same design! Normally, the eyes of creatures are on the outside of their bodies. Not this guy! The eyes are INSIDE a clear dome, just like the three aircraft! Look at it, below.
There are two spots on the front of the fish just above the mouth. These look like eyes. They aren't. Those spots are, in essence, it's nostrils! The eyes are the green things located inside the completely clear "canopy"! A see-through head!
This fish is a relatively recent discovery (1939), and they're hard to study in their natural environment. So, a lot more research is needed to understand them. But here are some fascinating facts:
This fish basically just floats deep in the ocean, about 1,800 feet down. Its eyes are aimed up since it swims beneath its prey. Some scientists think that their food includes various types of jellyfish, which often use bioluminescense - which means that they emit light. The green eyes are thought to help the fish see prey better (somehow), and to screen (filter) sunlight so it can see
the glowing portion of the jellyfish. BUT, here's the weird thing!: Once it spots prey and heads toward it, it can rotate its eyes 90 degrees to aim straight forward! In this way, it can see its mouth area to aim it at its prey!
How strange is that! Revelation 4:11 states that God made everything for His own pleasure. Since we are made in His image, we can have full enjoyment in all of these things, too! What strange creatures some of them are! I sometimes wonder - Did God have "fun" making all these creatures?...
