A New Perscpective I try to keep an open mind when looking at the world. There are so many different perspectives and idea out there that not allowing yourself to consider them doesn’t seem very smart to me. This semester we have read many interesting things about life and the universe, and I have tried to understand most of the thoughts and ideas in the books we have read. By allowing myself to keep an open mind to new ideas, I believe has helped me to learn many new things from the books we…

Have you ever thought about what super power you'd like to have? or how it would be to have a super power? Well these are questions that everyone make. Usually we think of this when we are kids because we know that these things doesn't happen in real life, this is only part of our imagination. But if we take a minute and think like a kid, all of us want to be a super heroe. Don't you think that we need one in this world? Haven't you thought about how it would be to have someone at least a person…

Gravitational theory is a theory that states any two particles attract each other with a force that is equal to the product of the two masses. Before Newton, the views on gravity and the motion of the planets, were quite different. Aristotle believed the universe never had a beginning and would never end; he believed it was eternal. Kepler’s view on gravity and motion was that the planets orbited around the sun and orbits faster the closer it becomes to the sun. Galileo believed if something…

Quod phoenix est ut incenderent existo.’-The phoenix must burn to emerge. In accordance to this statement everything in this cosmos at one point of time must be reborn to emerge stronger than ever. There is a specific period in life when humans at a certain time become retrospective. Rebirth or The Renaissance during the Quattrocento period in Italy epitomized this phenomenon. Classical antiquity and the interest and learning that accompanied it was reborn after the Middle Ages in a period…

The creation of the universe came from the Big Bang Theory and Darwinism. According to the Big Bang Theory, the universe was created 13.8 billion years ago starting from a singularity, and eventually expanding into what we know as the universe, galaxies, planets, etc. In regards to evolution, Darwinism is the theory that all species derive from organisms. Through these organisms, natural selection takes its course and the species that successfully sustain themselves, compete, and recreate,…

help of interstellar travel, humans would have the means to continue expansion to a endless extent. Mankind could grow, colonize, and continue to live without ever having to worry about overpopulation. Mankind as a species could spread throughout the galaxy and live in comfort, using resources and materials from various planets to continue to expand until the end of time. Christopher Columbus would never have discovered America if not for colonization, and we will never discover new lands…

What are Dark Matter and Dark Energy? Introduction: To start with, Dark Matter is invisible material that permeates the galaxies. It exerts a gravitational influence on the stars causing them to deviate from Newton’s and Kepler’s laws. Dark Matter also affects members of a group of galaxies. The nature and composition of the Dark Matter are unknown. In space there is a lot of totally empty space, the vacuum, which contains energy. This energy is variously called Dark Energy and also may be…

The universe is an infinitely growing sphere which is calculated to be 46.5 billion light years in diameter. This sphere contains the space in which billions of stars are contained. Some of these regions have small rocks called planets. Humans inhabit one of these planets which is instilled in a perfect system called the solar system. However, mankind may not be the only ones to have a system in which life can thrive on. There may be others that live in their own planets like us. In fact, some…

want to, but eventually people may need to go to other planets and there is a chance that it could become a huge part of life and a huge step up from where humans are today. A new galaxy has been discovered called TRAPPIST-1 which has seven Earth like planets, three of them suitable for life. If humans could get to this galaxy which is only 39 light years away, it could be a huge necessity. Most people think we should invest time and money going to Mars, to the moon, and then other planets in…

One of the most strange and interesting things in my opinion is called a black hole. The most interesting thing about them is that they can completely make something disappear but the item keeps it's original mass. That is why I will be writing about black holes in this paper. People have been studying black holes for a long time. In 1915 Albert Einstein published his theory on black holes. But the same year Karl Schwarzschild proved that theory correct. And people have performed more and more…
