The center photograph that appears on our home page shows what is known as Cherenkov Radiation.  According to Wikipedia, the glow is caused by “electromagnetic radiation emitted when a charged particle passes through an insulator at a speed greater than the speed of light in that medium. The characteristic 'blue glow' ” seen above is an example of this phenomenon as shown within a nuclear reactor. Source: The Weber Report - http://dustinweber.com.
