on by a force,” and the same remains true even at the massive scales of the Universe. These clouds of gas and dust can be billions of miles across (Chinn, 2010b), and as such, require significant events to occur to displace them. The movements of galaxies and shock waves from supernova explosions are examples of events that can cause the gas and dust clouds to be…

advanced extraterrestrial species may have intervened. What if extraterrestrial beings were the ones who made Earth, or even us? We have the same amount of statistics on either argument being true. Earth is 4.543 billion years old; the age of our galaxy, the Milky Way, is 13.2 billion years old, with approximately…

in and around the universe like the plants, animals are all made of dust, even the composition of our bodies is made of this dust. These atoms are seen as the interstellar startups of the universe. This material is constantly spread throughout the galaxy by comets, dyeing stars, solar storms, and other means of massive disbursement of this elemental material. Many scientists have be waiting for many years just to get a glimpse of some the first samples, to come back to earth since the…

How do stars form? The stars were born among the dust and scattered throughout the most galaxies. There is an example of dust cloud which is the Orion Nebula.The turbulence in the depths of these clouds produces enough mass of knots.Because its own gravitational attraction,and the gas and dust can begin to collapse. Then the material at the center begin to heat up which is known as protostar . The heart of the collapsing cloud will one day become a star. Since stars are formed from…

In 1929, Edwin Hubble published his report and state that the red shift in light coming from distant galaxies, is proportional to their distance which is effectively supporting Lemaitre hypothesis of an expanding universe.  Sharing finding stages In 1927, Lemaitre wrote a report which called A homogenous universe of constant mass and growing radius accounting for the radial velocity of extragalactic nebulae. This report was puplished in the little known journal Annales de la Societe…

The great Neil deGrasse Tyson once said something along the lines of humans have only discovered about 4% of the universe. Not only does my fear of what I don't know going on below my feet in the ocean scare the crap out of me, but that big star filled sky does as well. It doesn't just scare me, but it probably scares and excites scientists studying it all over the world. Since we only know a fraction of the inter-workings of the universe, there are many questions and things going on that we…

Dark Matter and Dark Energy Casson VanDervoort Northview High School  Dark energy and dark matter are commonly found to disprove common knowledge in the world of science but still, these two forces are unknown and untapped. Both dark energy and dark matter are commonly referred to as one another but, in fact they’re different. The two are mostly found together but, dark matter may have been found to be linked to primordial black holes. One may ask, “What is dark matter and energy and…

every single day. Gravity has a huge impact on these discoveries. We know that gravity impacts the solar system in many ways and all throughout the galaxy but how does gravity affect these things? All objects have a gravitational pull. This means that this force had a huge impact on the formation of our solar system and other solar systems in our galaxy and in the universe. First of all, a phet simulation showed us this. When mass 1=50 kg and mass 2=200 kg, the gravitational pull was 41712 E-7…

Cosmic Paradox: Astronomers Discover Stars Possibly Older Than The Universe Age may only be a number, but when it comes to cosmic terms, it is important for certain rules to be obeyed. What we are saying is that it should not be possible for complex creatures to be older than planets or to have a rocky planet that'll predate the stars. It should even be impossible to have a star that is older than the observable Universe. Source: NASA…

Brianna Susnak Mini-Project #1 1. The six steps of the formation of the solar system are: • Gravitational collapse—the protostellar cloud collapses into a rotating disk. This disk increases in temperature and rotation rate, due to the conservation of energy and angular momentum. The rotating cloud is flattened into a disk, and the materials in the disk move in a circular motion. The material in this disk forms planets that orbit in the same way that the material from which they are formed…
