Altitude

another character to meet with him. While he is waiting for this character he makes an adumbrate reference to the overlords by questioning the location of his own office. “He sometimes wondered if it was a good thing for any man to work at such an altitude above his fellow humans.” (Clarke 6) In this reference it shows how his reaction to the Overlords is skeptical. He questions their presents on earth and their intentions. He goes on the mention that he is not fearful but simply deciding his…

The natural distribution of minnow in Norway was mainly restricted to low altitude localities in the south-eastern part of the country and in some northern areas. According to Museth et al. 2007, the distribution area expanded considerably throughout the 1900s, especially in mountain areas, due in part to the use of minnows as…

Eugenics is the science to control human populations. Governments in the past have enforced laws on the population to sterilize people with genes that are not favorable in order to increase the population with desirable heritable characteristics. Scientists do this because they believe that it will improve the quality of the human population. This science attributes human phenotypes and behaviors with genotypes and biology. Eugenics is the effort to better a population by removing negative…

The atomic bomb was developed by a group of American, British and European scientists. It was an international project named “The Manhattan Project”. (History.com, 2009) It was developed because the U.S. government officials were aware of a possible new type of radioactive weapon that the Nazi Germany might be developing. They aimed to develop the weapon before the Nazi Germany. (Lallanilla, 2014) After years of research, they developed two bombs named “Little Boy” and “Fat Man” which used…

Today was another surreal one. The hike up to Panorama Ridge saw the vegetation get thinner and thinner until there was nothing but lichen, the only plant that had the attitude to face the altitude. At some point on the ascent, every fully-grown tree became shorter than me, and I knew that I hadn't experienced something like this ever before. I found the everyday use of the word “free” (costing no money) to not apply on this hike. This experience may not have cost me money but it was not free -…

An ariplane called AT-6, which happens to be a two-passenger fighter plane, was the first airplane ever to be flown into a hurricane. This airplane and the people within it, led to a great deal of exploration. Within altitudes of 1,000 feet through 10,000 feet, the hurricane hunters travel through the eye, the calmest part of the hurricane, the eye wall, the roughest part of a hurricane, and the spiral rain bands, which have heavy showers of rain that swirl inward. These…
