Diana Moon-Glampers

The first ascent to Earth’s moon on the mission Apollo 11 in 1969 demonstrated the vigilance and courage of astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin. As Neil Armstrong descended on the ladder of the Eagle to take the very first step on the moon’s surface, the world was watching human’s greatest achievement unfold. This mission proved that the exploration of outer space is valuable because it was considered one of man’s most prideful moments. Man’s abilities were put to the test in the Apollo…

Many big events happen every year. They all mean something and some of them are remembered forever. In the past few years, one of the most important events that took place was the “Project Stratos” in 2012. The goal of the mission was to prove a man could survive the speed of sound in a freefall. I will explain why I believe it was the most important event of 2012! First, Project Stratos is so important because of the accomplishment that was made and the fact that it broke many world records…

Some people think that the moon landing in 1968 was fake. But, some people think it's real. People think that after the rocket launched it didn’t go to space and they staged it and made it seem like it landed on the moon. And others say it's real because millions of people were watching. And even other countries that were trying to get to the moon first can't prove it was fake. I put confidence on that the moon landings were real. I understand this because I have found evidence that have told…

Planet eating stars and giant aliens living in space doesn’t sound that appealing. Why would anyone want to go up there? Astronauts are almost addicted to space missions. Most say it was the most memorable moment in their lives. If they are fit enough to go back into space, most will stop at nothing to make it happen. So what is so amazing about space? Aliens. In the last sequence phase of a star, they grow several hundred times larger. So large that any planet near a giant red star will be…

The Martian Andy Weir The Martian is a book that follows the journey of Mark Watney, an astronaut apart of the “Ares 3 mission”. The Ares program was a program by NASA which brought mankind onto Mars. Both Ares 1 and 2 resulting successfully, Ares 1 sent astronauts who returned heroes into space. Unfortunately Ares 3 resulted in a death. At least that’s what everyone thought at first… When a sandstorm of 175km/h winds (25km/h faster than the missions equipment was able to handle) formed the…

and measuring the amount of rain that fell yesterday? I believe curiosity is what drives people to do things that normal people would consider weird. Looking at the sky and wondering what is beyond the sky. Just like the astronomers who reached the moon in 1969, they thought beyond what a mediocre person could think of. In the generation we live in, anyone can travel to different country with a click of a button. Those who thirst for adventure…

Nasa has sent many missions out into space. Missions to mars, venus, and also to the moon. The three most famous missions were Apollo 11, Apollo 8, and Apollo 13. There was a reason that Apollo 13 was memorable. They did not land on the moon or discover new beings, but it is remembered because a huge accident that caused all in America to lean forward in their seats and pray for a miracle that the mission would be saved and three special men would come home safely. In April 1970 the Apollo…

Throughout the year our planet Earth rotates along an axis of rotation around the Sun. Over the course of a year, the angle of tilt does not fluctuate. This means that the Earth’s hemispheres are always pointing at their respected directions in space. However, the orientation of Earth’s tilt with respect to the sun does change as we orbit the sun; thus giving us our source of light and warmth. The Southern and Northern Hemispheres take turns being oriented toward the sun for half of the year and…

Woooooooo!!! mars one’s first Crew has landed. The Issue is Mars One is going to Mars. Some people are not wanting to go at all whatsoever. We are going to be telling you about a planned trip to mars in the late 2020’s, we think it should happen, but some people think it is bad. We will tell you who it is a good thing, and can be helpful. Mars one is a good thing because we get to learn and explore a new planet. The first reason is that when planet earth runs out of resources like iron and…

The Great American eclipse and the appearance of the sun in “All Summer in a Day” were both alike in many ways. The two events were greatly anticipated rarities. In the movie, Margot was very enthusiastic for the visit of the sun as were many people about the eclipse. The reason both events were anticipated was due to the fact that both events had not happened in many years. Both of the audiences prepared for such rarities but in different ways. The children in the movie put on visors and…
