Exploration of Mars

In the next 30 years, we can colonize Mars. Thanks to technological advances and years of mars study, we will be able to travel to Mars and use its natural resources to create permanent human communities on this planet. Why do we want to colonize Mars? Humans have a natural curiosity for the unknown; we have a great spirit of adventure, we are fascinated with the idea of an adventure, exploring the unknown. Colonizing Mars is a very challenging mission, but the once achieved the satisfaction…

Atmosphere: The atmosphere of Pluto is complex in many ways. It is made of nitrogen with very small amounts of methane and carbon monoxide, which are all vaporized from ice on Pluto's surface. When Pluto is closer to the Sun in its orbit the Sun heats up the ice on PLuto and releases nitrogen, methane and carbon monoxide on Pluto's surface. These ice vaporizes and forms a temporary atmosphere. When Pluto moves farther from the Sun the atmosphere freezes and goes back onto Pluto's surface.…

that the Moon rotates on its axis the same amount of time that it takes to complete an orbit around Earth. The current explanation for the formation of the Moon is called the giant impact hypothesis. Which proposes that an object the size of Mars collided with Earth, blasting Earth's outer layers into space. These layers would then be orbiting around Earth, accreted together forming our moon, which is about 7.342x1022 Kilograms. The composition of our moon is similar to Earth’s outer…

The seasons are caused by tilt of Earth's rotational axis away or toward the sun as it travels on its year long path around the sun. The Earth has a tilt of 23.5 degrees relative to the “ecliptic plane” the imaginary surface formed by its almost circular path around the sun the tilt towards the sun is maximised during northern hemisphere summer in late June the summer solstice. There are so much stars in the galaxy that some of them we can not discover in the universe.At night you can see some…

Planet Midnight What happens when the Earth becomes uninhabitable?Where we anywhere to live?The planet Midnight is very similar to Earth. Our planet Midnight is habitable because of the sun planet system and seasons, water availability, and our animals ,adaptations and evolution.The atmosphere on Midnight traps heat and blocks the dangerous rays from its solar system star, Hansen that is 92.96 mi away from Midnight. Hansen is identical to The Sun. Our Star is a yellow dwarf that produces…

ever-impending “consequences” of climate change, nuclear war, and a slew of astral natural disasters threaten the existence of all life on Earth. It’s time to take a rocket ship out of the nest and on to the next planet, Mars. As the second step in our next frontier, this big red dot in…

of a human mission to planet Mars has been capturing the attention of everybody. It has manifested itself in cinema, art, and literature. In order for this to happen scientist have to determine if Mars can support life. On November 26, 2011 NASA launched a robotic space probe mission to Mars, called “Mars Science Laboratory”. This mission successfully landed Curiosity rover in Mars on August 6, 2012 (Space). The objectives of this mission included investigating Mars’ habitability, studying its…

A water molecule is made of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Oxygen and Hydrogen are gases but when combined form into a liquid compound; water. The hydrogen atoms make an angle of around 105 degrees with the oxygen atom. The oxygen atom dominates an end of the molecule while the hydrogen atoms dominate the other. The asymmetry of the water molecule causes the oxygen end to have a slight negative charge while the hydrogen end has a slightly positive charge. A molecule with both (-) and…

Audience Analysis Student 1 Lorraine: Lorraine’s native language is Spanish. She has been studying English since kindergarten and has been my student since the beginning of the school year. Lorraine is in the intermediate fluency stage of language development. She is able to read text and relate the context of the reading to the lesson. She does well on critical thinking test questions. Lorraine is able to write brief paragraphs on context. Unfortunately, Lorraine is very shy and when she…

The names of the moons are Phobos and Deimos; they were named for the two sons of the Greek god Ares and the Greek goddess Aphrodite. The two moons are actually little more than large rocks that happened to get caught in the gravitational pull of Mars, and are no more than a few tens of kilometres across. Out of the two moons, Phobos is the larger rock, being about twenty-eight kilometres long and twenty kilometres wide. Phobos also has a large crater on it called Stickney as well. Deimos is…
