In our planet, all life depends entirely on the variety of life existing on it and the services and goods it provides. The biological diversity within the planet such as the relationship between each specie all play a significant role. For instance, the way in which mussels help purify water affects humans and how trees provide oxygen for living species. The variety of life within our planet can be described as biodiversity. Biodiversity can be described as an umbrella term that elucidates the…

In a recent article on Grantland, staff writer Rembert Browne dialogues his impromptu visit to Ferguson, Missouri in mid-August. In opening the essay, he admits: “I don’t know what made me buy a plane ticket to St. Louis at 1:15 a.m. on Tuesday. Maybe it was remembering that feeling of helplessness and guilt after learning of the Trayvon Martin verdict while embarking on a carefree cross-country road trip.” Claudia Rankine’s new book, Citizen, effects a similar experience. Citizen requires the…

The disasters that most frequently occur in this genre are floods, earthquakes, asteroid collisions, accidents like shipwrecks and airplane crashes, catastrophes like worldwide disease pandemics or various types of vicious monsters. This movie genre became prominent in the 1970s, especially in the U.S. due to a large number of events…

Potential planetary targets that have potential to be explored by NASA with manned or robotic missions have been categorized according to this system. Those of the least concern with planetary protection measures include asteroids and the moon of Jupiter Io (4). This is because they have been deemed by NASA as being not important for determining the chemical and evolutionary origins of life. The second class of planets includes two subcategories. Those planets that are not…

In the year 1935 Edwin Hubble discovered the 1373 Cincinnati, which is a main belt asteroid. Another great accomplishment of Edwin Hubble is his book ‘The Realm of The Nebulae,’ published in 1936. His book goes further into detail about his law and more astronomical findings. His work let him obtain an award called the American Association…

"Why We Should Increase NASA 's budget" Ever since the moon landing, our urge to explore the Heavens has overwhelmed us. As a Result we 've sent many probes to Mars, Jupitar, Venus, out side our solar system, and Even to our sun. But as time progressed it seems the hope we have had in nasa has deplemished as well. Like A Jewish Barber said "... We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want." (The Great Dictator) Just like in that…

that life itself is a on going chemical process. Let’s be clear though nobody has yet demonstrated the exact mechanism for how life form on earth it could’ve been hydrothermal vents in the ocean, panspermia, the idea single celled life came from asteroids most likely from mars, or it could’ve been in tide pools made by giant tsunamis…

It could be a scary future indeed, with as many as 30 to 50 percent of all species possibly heading toward extinction by mid-century [2]. Unlike past mass extinctions, caused by events like asteroid strikes, volcanic eruptions, and natural climate shifts, the current crisis is almost entirely caused by us — humans. In fact, 99 percent of currently threatened species are at risk from human activities, primarily those driving habitat loss, introduction…

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, or NASA, remains one of the most famous government funded programs in the world. This same agency put the first dozen people on the moon, brought the world together to build the International Space Station, and explored the outer reaches of the solar system. Today, the program does not hold the same respect as previous years. Combative politics plague NASA. It needs a new budget plan to end its uneconomical rocket program: the Space Launch…

The concept of faith and choices has been around for ages as people always wish to have explanations for what happens to them and their surroundings. In the story of Cupid and Psyche it seems as though fate is already drawn out for Psyche, even though if she were in charge of her actions, the choice would clearly point her in the opposite direction of the events that happened. Then, in Epicurus’s Letter to Menoeceus choices are regarded highly in the turn of events to occur. Choices and fate are…
