Sun pillars
These pillars usually occur when the sunlight reflects on different layers of ice crystals in the air.

Colored moon
Sometimes due to various atmospheric reasons, the moon appears to change its color to red, blue or orange.

Japan’s landscape is dominated by mountains; they cover 75-80 percent of the country.

The number four is believed to be unlucky in Japan because the word for four is “shi,” which closely resembles the word for death. Hotels and hospitals don’t have a fourth floor.

In Mexico, in 1984, and only 1984, you could have purchased an SS with an LM1 350 V8 and a 4 barrel Rochester Quadrajet hooked up to a 4 speed manual gearbox. Not only that, but the Saginaw transmission also came equipped with a Hurst shifter. Other variations from the American version included the elimination of the SS rear spoiler, different side graphics, checkerboard style wheels, different mirrors, special steering wheel, no center console, only power locks, only manual windows, and the interior was styled using Pontiac Grand Prix parts rebranded with the SS logo.
