Flat Earth

Saturn is 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,…

Two recent articles published in the National Geographic and NASA Earth Observatory, “Signs From Earth: No Room to Run” and “How Will Global Warming Change Earth”, seek to raise awareness of the dangerous implications of global warming for human, animal, and plant life. While NASA’s articles share a similar device in projecting a message that is both omniscient and foretelling, National Geographic “Signs From Earth: No Room to Run” is the most informative because of its writing style being in…

The Outsiders Essay based on Theme: Change of Perspective In the olden days people thought the earth was flat because they did not have enough information about the shape of the earth, others thought it was round. Now we know for sure the earth is a sphere because over time knowledge was gained and perspectives altered. Likewise, in the book, The Outsiders, S.E. Hinton shows the reader that when the main characters get to know each other, their point of view changes. Two gangs from different…

abandoned Earth on the account of it was not in the ideal shape for humankind to survive in. Therefore, humans left robots to clean up the mess they had made where after some time, the Earth became habitable once more. Mankind had been sending extraterrestrial vegetation evaluators or EVE to Earth to know if mankind were to ever exist upon Earth once more. As it is, one EVE came back positive, but a programmed AI couldn’t wander from his coding, which consequently was never to return to Earth.…

am on page 251. This book is about a man named Mark Watney. Mark is left on mars under the impression that his demise happened. He finds safety in the Hab, but the food available will only last him about 300 sols (days on mars). Even if anyone on Earth knew he was alive, a rescue trip would take over 800 sols to get to mars. When reading, I recognized three merits: humor, problem development and solutions, and details. The Martian can be very serious and nerve wrecking, but Andy Weir’s way of…

and Earth were side by side, the moon would look like a tennis ball next to a basketball. It looks bigger than the stars and as large as the sun because it is closer to Earth than any other natural object in space. But the moon is about 400 times smaller than the sun, and it is not all that close to Earth. A rocket journey from Earth to the moon and back takes about six days. The moon is a huge rock that travels around Earth. Nothing lives on the moon. The moon has…

closer to the truth. Though, most of us will rather ignore or not even accept the fact that human life and life on other planets develops in different ways and that they may be even more advanced than us. It’s simple, we used to believe the Earth was flat, yet over years of studies and science we figured out it is quite an oblate spheroid. In further years…

The planet Jupiter is one of the five objects to be visible from Earth in the solar system. Of these bodies it is the second largest behind the sun. Jupiter is the largest planet in the Solar System with a mass of 1.899x1027kg orbiting at 5.2AU from the Sun. Jupiter is orbited by 67 moons of which the first four are called the Galilean moons as of their discovery in 1614 by Galileo. Jupiter formed about 4.6billion years ago from the cloud of dust and gas that made up the early Solar System.…

(Worldatlas.com, n.d.). Both Germany and California are the top economies on their continents. Likewise, China the top producer in its continent encompasses 9.5 million sq km, with 1.4 billion people and a GDP of 10.8 trillion U.S. dollars. Across the Earth population sizes, land areas, and wealth of countries vary in such a drastic manner that to allow for a fair comparison, continents will be…
