Earth No More

safety of the human race One reason we should colonize mars is because we need to make sure that are species the human race lives for as long as possible for all we know mars could be are last chance of survival if earth gets destroyed by lest say all the volcanos erupted and it destroy earth we would have to leave and go some where else but we wouldn't be able to because we would have no where to go. Another reason why we should colonize mars is the fact that what if we find some version of…

The physical Earth, as does the biological Earth, has an evolving history. The scientific world is clear on the formation of the continents during and after the time of Pangea, however, they are less certain of the location and structure of the continents before then. Some scientists suspect that Earth has had several supercontinents. Plate tectonics will always be at work changing the form of our planet's…

by Naomi Klein, Klein mentions that climate change and extractivism involves inequality, and extracticism is creating sacrifice zones. Klein defines ‘extractivism’ as “a term originally used to describe econmies based on removing ever more raw resources from the earth, usually…

lead to undesirable glacier forming. 2. The principle of uniformitarianism is the idea that the Earth is in a consistent condition of change, and ice ages are central point in our ever-changing world. The Pleistocene age adds much credibility to the idea. It demonstrates that changes are slow to take place, and that ice ages can last millions of years. Before uniformitarianism people believed the Earth was made in 4,000 BC and that huge changes…

fossil there were events that occurred that left layers behind, like a volcanic explosion. From this diagram, you can predict the relative ages of each strata and fossil. Before fossil "C", there was volcanic ash, then A layer of sedimentary rock, then more volcanic ash. The volcanic ash shows there were two volcanic irruption's, but they weren't right after one another they were separated by sedimentary rock. That shows there was a lot of time for the dirt, sand, etc to lithify and become…

the second largest planet. Saturn revolves around the sun once every 29.4 Earth years, or 10,755.7 Earth days. Its poles are tilted 29 degrees relative to the orbit around the sun. Winds closer to Saturn’s equator blow east at 1,100 miles per hour, making Saturn the windiest planet in the solar system (of known planets). Temperatures at Saturn’s cloud tops are -218 F. Its volume is 764 times of earth, but only 95 times more massive. It has rings around the planet made of rocks, ice, and…

The Sun is an enormous, extraterrestrial body that is many times larger than Earth. Many scientists have referred to it as a massive nuclear reactor that burns numerous amounts of hydrogen; and just like an actual nuclear reactor, hydrogen is the essential fuel in nuclear fusion reactions. The hydrogen in these fusion reactions fuse together to form beryllium, helium, and lithium atoms. “The temperature on the surface of the Sun is approximately six thousand degrees Celsius. While at its core,…

Would you consider how you live and what you do is always good for the Earth and its environment? Some may think so, but with all of our industrial centers and vehicles producing carbon emissions, it is causing many global disasters around the Earth. There has been a rise in storms and many other disasters due to this. Many want to change and help out the cause of global warming and climate change but don 't actually put the effort into it. Even though some scientists believe the evidence…

Since the beginning of time, god created the Earth and the human race. The creation of the Earth also lead to different stories that tells people many ways of the world and humans god had created. In many religions, each one has a story of the first humans, Adam and Eve, who characterizes the human species and their nature. Many creation stories have different point of views of humans created in the world and tell people about being human and the nature of humans. In some societies,…

into consideration to ensure this next huge step that humanity is on the verge of taking, will be in the right direction. First off, I think we need to address the main concern when discussing space exploration, which is cost. In the long term, the more money we invest into this project now, will result in a greater payoff for humanity later on down the road. Source A sums this up perfectly by saying “Whatever we spend on manned space exploration is a bargain and our investment will be returned…
