Nazca - 100 BC to 800 AD.

The candelabra is actually Paracas.

Not religious, but my favorite is the Gamma Ray Burst.

Totally invisible until it hits and BOOM, everything is dead.

Regardless, go to the manufacturer site, whoever you pick.

When possible, go to the manufacturers site. In this case, someone like Flir.
