Atmosphere of Venus

There is a gas station, way in the deserts of Nevada, where life stands still. Where no one passes by to fill their car, and the gas turns stale. Every gust of wind will slather the station in red clay, and in the absence of wind dust will settle instead. A man works and lives In this gas station, alone. But he is not alive, nor is he dead. He spends his years, pump in hand, waiting for a car to come down the vacant road, but one never does. He has only a clock to measure what time has passed…

We had just come from my granddaughter’s basketball game and we had decided to go to the Bob Evans in Marysville.

It rose with a low, clear, warble, and seemed to float in the gray sky like the note of a lark. As it died away, I perceived that the atmosphere had changed; despite the equilibrium established by the storm, it was dynamic. The men thrust forward their heads, expanded their eyes and clenched their teeth. They breathed arduously, as though strangled by yanking at the leash. “Hoof it.” The…

How do volcanoes affect the atmosphere and climate? During an eruption there is often a lot of rain, lighting, and thunder. This happens because all the ash particles that are thrown up into the air are good at collecting water droplets. Another problem is that it forms in a fog or volcanic fog. If the volcanic fog only gets into the troposphere it gets washed away with the rain. Most of the particles that come from volcanoes and go to the atmosphere cool the planet by shading incoming solar…

It was a normal day in the woods, me and my family survived the first wave of aliens that invaded the world. I remember the day like it was yesterday, the huge monster came and attacked anything that made a sound. There was no way that anyone could have prepared or predicted the aliens. Any loud noise was unacceptable and irresponsible in my family. As time went out we have found out what noises are safe and which ones are not. We have figured out how to understand each other by using sign…
