What Makes Nazca Lines?

Decent Essays
Of the theories mentioned in the passage, I think the explanation that Nazca Lines were made by planes landing. People think aliens were the passengers of the plane, but I disagree. I think the instigation that aliens were passengers in the landers is a lie, since its principal proponent envisioned his ideas in a highly profitable best-selling book. I am convinced more of this explanation than the other one about the suns making the Nazca Lines. That theory must be impossible because the earth spins around while orbiting around the sun, which is still, because the earth is moving constantly the sun cannot make lines on the exact spot to make a design because the lines would not be in the same spot, or in a bunch. The sun also doesn't have

    Long ago, people believed that the Earth was the center of the universe, and that all the stars, planets, and other celestial bodies orbited around it. However, as pivotal discoveries were made and new theories emerged, society gained a much more insightful understanding of the cosmos above. In the second century, an astronomer by the name of Claudius Ptolemy proposed his geocentric model of the solar system, which depicted Earth in the center of the universe and the planets and the Sun orbiting in concentric circles around it. There were problems with this model, however, and years later an astronomer named Nicolaus Copernicus proposed another model which showed the Sun at the center.…

    When it emerged in the sixties among the crush of several other art movements (Pop Art, Minimalism, among others) Land Art came to be an anti-gallery artistic offshoot that straddled the domain between architecture and sculpture. It had no manifestos nor schools nor leaders and it was not quite a movement; the artists who were involved with it were also involved in other types of arts. Land art was labelled as modern ‘sculpture’ but its versatility and introduction of new concepts and visual materials made it difficult to ascribe it to one field or term. Later on, the term “Earth Works,” coined by Robert Smithson came to use, but Earth Works only refers to works that use earth while Land Art is an all-encompassing umbrella that includes…

    In “Why We Should Trust Scientists,” by Naomi Oreskes, the presenter describes what makes science so unique, and distinguishes it from other fields such as religion. Oreskes claims that science is an appeal to authority, but unlike other similar appeals, it is the collective authority of a group of people, somewhat like a community. Throughout her speech, she conveys to her audience different examples of historical figures who worked in science, and uses them as proofs to help understand the point that she is making. In doing so, she describes that what makes this specific field so special, is the fact that science itself, and the ways that one tries to test a theory on a specific subject are not related; but rather, as was said by Paul Feyerabend…

The lines were used as offerings and for rituals, The shapes all represent something of good fortune, and they can only be seen from high in the sky. The runway theory has basically no evidence to support it. The lines will remain a mystery for many years to come, but as of now, the offering theory seems the most reasonable and credible out of all theories.…

    Descartes explores the nature of human perception through the mind as separated from the body. His meditations on the subject outline a number of principles regarding truth and understanding, but the Dream Argument for Skepticism is derived from a single principle. More specifically, Descartes explains that: "Accordingly, seeing that our senses sometimes deceive us, I was willing to suppose that there existed nothing really such as they presented to us; and because some men err in reasoning, and fall into paralogisms, even on the simplest matters of Geometry, I, convinced that I was as open to error as any other, rejected as false all the reasonings I had hitherto taken for demonstrations; and finally, when I considered that the very same…

    Ancient feces provides earliest evidence of infectious disease being carried University of Cambridge July 21, 2016 ~~~ https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2016/07/160721194021.htm# on Silk Road Researchers Yuan Yeh and Piers Mitchell have studied preserved feces to determine infectious diseases on the Silk Road.

    Among people and societies different cultures have always been present. Our human capacity for learning, using, and recognizing symbols allows for these cultures to develop and to change.

Horace Miner’s observations of the Nacirema people in Body Ritual of the Nacirema reveal just how important perspective can be when observing other cultures.…
