Xinjiang is a key sending hub in China's west-to-east power transmission program. Once considered economic obstacles, Xinjiang's vast deserts and arid landscapes have been transformed into a renewable energy goldmine, blessed with strong wind and long hours of sunshine. Since 2010, Xinjiang has cumulatively transmitted over 900 billion kilowatt-hours of power outside the region, with renewable energy accounting for approximately 30 percent of the total. The electricity supply coverage extends to 22 provincial-level regions across China. Photo by Ding Lei/Xinhua/ABACAPRESS.COM

Behind The Scenes Of The Vatican

Sister Dometilla irons pieces of fabric for a ceremony in Saint-Peter Basilica at the Vatican on November 17, 2015. Hundreds of meters of fabric 'require hours of work and patience. We are here to do it', serenely commented Sister Dometilla. As the clock struck 12, the nun stopped working long enough to make her way to the stoop where she recited the prayer of the Angelus.
