    Winter Olympics 2014: Google Doodle marks the Sochi Games

    The doodle is has a striking and colourful vintage design.


    To celebrate the start of the Winter Olympics in Sochi, Google has created a multi-coloured, eye-catching doodle.

    The doodle features some of the main sporting events that will be taking place, including skiing, snowboarding and curling.

    It appears that the retro-themed doodle has been inspired by the design of the Sochi Games' website, where each sport is represented by a different colour and illustration.

    The doodle is completed by a quote from the Olympic Charter just below the search bar which embodies the spirit of the Games, the first of which was held in Chamonix, France, in 1924

    The Charter reads: 'The practice of sport is a human right. Every individual must have the possibility of practicing sport, without discrimination of any kind and in the Olympic spirit, which requires mutual understanding with a spirit of friendship, solidarity and fair play.'

    Despite this positive message, there has been much controversy surrounding Russia's human rights' record since Sochi won the bid to host the Winter Olympics. In particular concerns have been raised about the treatment of the country's gay community.

    The Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics officially starts today with an opening ceremony at the Fisht Olympic Stadium. It will be running from the 7 -23 February while the Winter Paraly

    Perseid Meteor Shower 2014: Google Doodle marks one of the great celestial light shows

    The annual Perseid meteor shower is known as the 'fireball champion' of meteor showers.



    Google has marked the arrival of one of the great celestial displays, the Perseid Meteor Shower, with an animated Doodle on its homepage.
    The Doodle when clicked shows a short film of meteors dashing through the night sky against a variety of backdrops.

    The annual Perseid meteor shower - known as the 'fireball champion' of meteor showers - happens every August and is caused by the massive Swift-Tuttle comet losing parts of its celestial body as it enters the inner solar system.

    The Perseid shower is so-called because they appear to come from the radiant which lies in the constellation Perseus.

    Observation of the spectacle is ancient, with the earliest information on this meteor shower found in Chinese annals in A.D. 36.

    The meteor shower is often referred to, particularly by Catholics as the 'tears of St. Lawrence', as 10 August is the date of that saint's martyrdom.

    Given a dark, clear sky it is often common to see more than 100 of the meteors an hour during the second week in August.

    This year the famous meteor shower was accompanied by the lunar phenomenon of a supermoon.

    The moon appeared 14% bigger and 30% brighter than normal as it reached the point in its orbit closest to the Earth, known as 'perigee&q
