Arugam Bay consists of three small villages where fishing and farming are the main occupations. The island lies on the Indian Ocean, 220 kilometers due east of Colombo, Sri Lanka. The island was devastated in the 2004 tsunami. Many organizations supported the fishing folks by donating plenty of fishing boats, nets and fishing gears. We do not get much fish as we had earlier. Perhaps, the tsunami has done something to the sea and the fishes are gone. Others say- After the tsunami foreigners gave boats and nets to many people so a large number of people are fishing now, as a result number of catch has dropped. Arugam Bay, Sri Lanka. February 2008.

Impact on the Moon - Moon Little splat: 10 million years after the Moon's surface has cooled, an impact with another small body formed from the ring surrounding the Earth probably occurred. This could explain the two very different faces of today's Moon - 10 million years after Moon's cooling: Today's moon was not the only one formed from the ring. There were several others, orbiting at the Lagrange points. The orbit of one was not stable and it eventually drifted into the larger moon in a slow-motion impact that caused the smaller satellite to pancake, spreading itself over an entire hemisphere, creating the mismatched sides the moon has today. An unlucky witness to the “” little splat”” would have seen a tsunami of molten rock roaring up over the horizon

We saw water coming and destroying things behind us, but we kept running. We took shelter in a temple. Later I found my parents too, but my younger sister Harshini was missing. We did not find her for another two days. Eventually she was found. A neighbour had taken her to her relatives place. There is no space in temple, thus we all live in open now. There are many people like us, so we don't feel alone. It is very difficult to sleep as there are too many mosquitoes. (photo)

At first I did not understand anything, but when I saw lot of people running, I too started running away from the sea. I took shelter in a little shop behind our house. People were still shouting, crying and running. No one from my family was in sight. I became very frighten and started to cry too. I could not find anyone from my family until evening (430pm). Finally I met them when I went to the temple. There were thousands of people there. We stayed in the temple for two days. When we returned, everything was destroyed as far as eyes could see. Our house was full of garbage. Everything was damaged, including my school books. Boossa village, about 8 km from Galle city. Sri Lanka. (photo)
