Dwarf planet

Have you ever wondered or thought about how the first telescopes were used and how they looked? Throughout history, there have been many inventions and innovations added into a telescope. Telescopes can vary in shape, size, and even color, but are all used for similar reasons. The development of the telescope dates back to around the 1600s and are still being developed and made today. Today, there are several telescopes that can be identified by people who worked and contributed into making some…

The four planets that make up the terrestrial planets are commonly known to us as Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars (Kay, 2013, p. 216). The reason that terrestrial planets are grouped separately from the rest of the solar system is because they are all structured very similarly and all have surfaces most like that of the planet Earth. Another aspect that separates these four planets from all others is the fact that they are all located the closest to the Sun. Terrestrial planets can be easily…

A comet is contained within the solar system and orbits the sun, when it is close enough to the sun, something that looks like a tail is shown, and it seems diffused. A meteor, is a meteoroid that is burnt up, whilst passing through Earth’s atmosphere. A meteorite is a meteor, that doesn’t burn up in Earth’s atmosphere, but collides with the Earth’s surface. An Asteroid, is made of rocks and metals and is contained in the solar system as well. It is very similar to a comet is extremely similar…

Mercury: Mercury is the first planet and the closest planet to the sun. It has a very thin atmosphere. It has a temperature range of 800 degrees Fahrenheit to -280 degrees Fahrenheit. In this passage, there will be many other facts about Mercury such as the characteristics of the planet and how it compares to our planet Earth. Mercury was not discovered by one single person. Since it was discovered before history was written. It is approximately 35.98 million miles away from the sun and has…

Galileo Galilei’s contributions to science was great. After building his own telescope, he became the first person to study this stars. Galileo’s first discovery was that Jupiter had four satellites circling it. He noted that these satellites were much like our Earth’s moon. Another one of Galileo’s more famous discoveries was the moon’s surface. It was previously thought by the Aristotelians that the moon’s surface was smooth, but upon further observation Galileo discovered that the moon was…

Some things ought to be taken at face-value, like the theory of ancient astronauts, for instance. Oh, but you haven’t seen an ancient astronaut’s face to value, right? Now does the lack of that tidbit of information spoil the whole theory? Well, it doesn’t according to the German rocket scientist, Wernher von Braun, who said: “Our sun is one of a 100 billion stars in our galaxy. Our galaxy is one of billions of galaxies populating the universe. It would be the height of presumption to think…

from the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP), have created a mission to “Explore the Earth Under the Sea”, and have proposed a billion dollar plan to drill and extract samples from the Earth’s Mantle and to eventually find out more about the planet on which…

project, I contributed as both a director and a media producer, constructing the background and settings of the narrative and completing all post-production tasks. The documentary video describes an exploratory visit by a spaceship in the year 2120 to a planet named Vars, which greatly resembles Earth in terms of its climate, inhabitants, and ability to support life. The astronauts who traveled to Vars soon discovered the reasons for its rise and fall through careful investigations. Despite its…

The shape of the planets is a result of gravity. Gravity is responsible for holding everything together. Without it,the entire universe would be different. 2.They differ greatly in size; the Sun is much larger than the Moon. While the Sun is a star made of gas, the Moon…
