Earth No More

"No, no," said the full stop. The writer lifted the flap, pulled the tab to slide the punctuation mark into place, and ended another sentence with a question mark.

The earth opened her mouth and swallowed him. The earth was void and darkness was upon the deep. How great the darkness! A long thin hand reached out of the ground, plucked a star from the sky, and shone it into the pit of the earth. The light shone in the darkness. But the darkness knew it not. The Soulless Man stood on the spiral staircase that coiled down beyond the star 's dying light. From the faded darkness came the cry of a tormented soul. It was his soul, his true self. He sold it for the spoils of the Underworld. And now he wanted it back. He bought a white rose, the Celestial, with his last coin. His voice echoed through the realm of mental night as he pleaded with the Keeper of Souls to give back the soul he had spurned, but now craved. "I beg of you, give back my…

Was the earth made thousands of years ago or millions of years ago? The earth is something that humans have theorized about for many years, but we don’t know which ones are right or wrong. One of the most controversial ideas that humans have is how old the earth is. People have come up with two options, the first is the New Earth idea which believes that the earth was made thousands of years ago, the other idea is the Old Earth perspective where people believe the earth was made millions of…

speaks more about the idea of what sustainability is and how is important for society to be aware of it.

NASA has recently discovered a new planet Yelger in the Andromeda Galaxy. It is the right distance from the sun to support life. It is the same size and mass as Earth. It takes 700 Earth days to revolve around the sun(360 on Earth), and takes 20 Earth hours to rotate around its axis(24 on Earth). It’s temperatures are about the same as on Earth, and has a tilt of 45º. It’s moon is the same distance away from Earth but it twice the mass and size. Because Yelger takes 20 hours to rotate on it’s…

In the text, “Earth Day,” Claudia Atticot and Alexandra Manning state “Americans use about 69 million tons of paper and paperboard each year.” Recycling or reusing one ton of paper could save approximately fifteen trees.” There are some who believe that Earth Day is not a necessity. However, Earth Day is still necessary and should be observed because Earth Day teaches people about environmental issues, recycling can make a difference, and Americans treat the environment poorly. Primarily,…

Symbolism by definition is the usage of certain objects or signs to stand for bigger meanings, concepts or ideas. In the first cartoon the beaten up man with that head which looks like the earth is a symbol for the earth, the cartoonist meant by that image to show people the bad effects of overpopulation on the earth, and that earth will no longer be able to face this problem or handle its effects. In the second cartoon the earth is being presented by a man or a boy being showered, the…

Giant Impact Theory The moons formation isn't clear to this day, although it does have many theories on its formation. The moons biggest theory is the Giant Impact Theory, which states that a mars sized object strikes earth breaking pieces off, and the gravitational force combines the broken pieces of earth into one, which is known as the Earths moon. The Earths and moons mantle are exactly identical, supporting the impact theory ("Origin of the Moon"). The moon doesn't have any identical…

organizations such as NASA, and less is going to organizations that need it like American Legion, and Make A Wish Foundation. Going into space allows scientists to discover new things and possibly new worlds, but the earth needs to be taken care of first, before going out and discovering a place where oxygen can even be breathed in. Instead of sending billion dollar rockets into space and using american taxpayers money to fund organizations like NASA to do this, the government fists needs to…
