Eccentricity

Introduction One thing that sets us apart from other species is our determination to quench our curiosity. For centuries, scientists and philosophers have done everything in their power to explore the depths of space. And now, in this day and age we are at a point where the far fetched dreams of those before us are no longer as impossible as they seem. It excites me that in the near future I may witness incredible feats being reached in space travel. Thus, I chose to garner a better…

system. Scientists describe Enceladus shape as scalene ellipsoid orbiting 147886.344 miles from Saturn’s center and 111846.82 miles from its clouds making complete round every 32.9 hours thus making it observable throughout the night. At an orbital eccentricity of 0.0047, Enceladus orbits within Saturn’s E ring and replenishes the ring’s content, it also rotates synchronously with its orbital period keeping a single side facing Saturn. There is documented evidence of liquid water from…

prevent the ice age. Milutin Milankovitch discovered the three orbital parameters that can cause an ice age if the conditions were all to align. Milankovitch’s three different orbital parameters include Earth’s eccentricity, axial obliquity, and the earth’s precision. Earth’s orbital eccentricity can be explained by how the earth travels around the sun. The earth goes around the sun in an oval shape not a perfect circle. This means sometimes the earth is closer to the sun, and…

“This is the story of girls and boys connected through their wounds.” Kiznaiver is a story of six individuals who are so unalike they would’ve never been friends without the “Kizna” experiment. Kiznaiver is a person bound to comrades through pain. The “Kizna system” is an experiment, using these Kiznaiver in hopes to bring world peace through people sharing pain. We begin this tale with the six Kiznaiver being tasked with missions that are part of this experiment. This anime is set in the…

has the same diameter if we measure it across or up and down. However, an ellipse has diameters of different lengths. The longest may be termed the major axis, and the shortest one is the minor axis. The ratio of these two lengths determines the eccentricity (e) of the ellipse; it is a measure of how elliptical it is. Circles has E = 0, and very stretched out ellipses have…

Fig. 11: Residuals in the osculating orbital elements of Nereid for long time interval. The semi-major axis is given in km, eccentricity in radians and the rest of elements are in degree (Saad & Kinoshita 2001). Vashkov’yak and Teslenko (2010) in addition to the effects of the mother planet Neptune, they considered the influence of the attraction of the internal satellite Triton on the evolution of the orbit of the external satellite Nereid. The disturbing function of Triton is…

A novelist with the power to connect a point “in the concrete” and another point “not visible to the naked eye, but believed in by him firmly, just as real to him, really, as the one that everybody sees” is an author of grotesque fiction. Flannery O’Connor, a Southern devout Catholic writer, who struggles with the stigma of being apart of “The School of Southern Degeneracy,” and feels “judged by the fidelity [her] fiction has to typical Southern life,” and in the same breath takes pride in her…

of this boundary. Moreover, the living body is characterized by a specific relationship to its boundary, that is, by a specific form of positionality. (251-252)¨Man tries to escape the unbearable eccentricity of his being, he wants to compensate for the lack that constitutes his life form. Eccentricity and the need for complements are one and the same. We should not understand ‘need’ in this context psychologically or as something subjective. It is something that is logically prior to every need…

Kepler’s Laws, Kepler is credited with 3 laws regarding the movement of celestial bodies orbiting other celestial bodies. Johannes Kepler, working with data painstakingly collected by Tycho Brahe without the aid of a telescope, developed three laws which described the motion of the planets across the sky. Kepler's 1st Law: The Law of Orbits, Kepler's 2nd Law: The Law of Areas, and Kepler’s 3rd Law: The Law of Periods. Kepler's laws were derived for orbits around the sun, but they apply to…

The show Friends was a sitcom that ran on NBC from 1994-2004 and it featured its main cast of six friends living in New York. The shows main characters, Monica Geller, Rachel Green, Phoebe Buffay, Ross Geller, Chandler Bing, and Joey Tribbiani, all encompassed a different character type and were well known for being these characters. T.V. sitcoms tend to include some or all of the typical character types we are used to seeing. There are eight character types that can be present in a sitcom,…
