LIFE's 37 Best-Ever Science Photos - Photo Gallery - LIFE
life.com — “Biology, chemistry, physics, astronomy, and all of the other physical and life sciences offer a multitude of constantly evolving methods for seeing our universe (and ourselves) in radically new ways -- a pursuit that's often thrilling, sometimes frightening, and never, ever wholly finished. Here, in celebration of LIFE's 75th anniversary, LIFE.com presents the most wonderful and, in some cases, the most thoroughly bizarre science and technology photos ever to appear in the magazine.

In Praise of 9/11 First Responders - Photo Gallery - LIFE
life.com — “It's been said over and over, and still it bears repeating: On 9/11, when terrorists flew planes into the World Trade Center towers and the Pentagon, murdering thousands, an untold numbers of cops, firefighters, and other first responders did what they so often do -- they headed straight into the smoke and flames, and set about trying to help victims, find survivors, and make everything all right. Never forget.” View full resource at life.com

The World of Blind Photographers - Photo Gallery - LIFE
life.com — “Blind photographers. The phrase feels, at first, like a classic oxymoron. The very derivation of the term "photography" -- from Greek, "drawing with light" -- seems to preclude even the possibility of a sightless person becoming a photographer. But Dark Light , a revelatory new documentary -- directed by one of the finest sports photographers of all time, and now a filmmaker, Neil Leifer -- provides graphic, moving evidence that when it comes to making pictures, an artist's d” View full resource at life.com

Before and After D-Day: In Color - Photo Gallery - LIFE
life.com — “It's no mystery why images of shocking, unremitting violence spring to mind when one hears the deceptively simple term, "D-Day." We've all seen -- in black-and-white photos, movies, old news reels -- what happened on the beaches of Normandy as the Allies unleashed an historic assault against German defenses on June 6, 1944. But in rare, color photos taken before and after the invasion, LIFE photographer Frank Scherschel captured countless other, lesser-known scenes from the run-up to t” View full resource at life.com
