Many Mizzou students are surprised to hear that the campus is home to an observatory. In fact, the observatory has been serving Mizzou students for over 100 years. The observatory is named after university president Samuel Laws, who personally donated $2,000 to help finance the new observatory for the university. The observatory has had multiple locations on campus before reaching its current spot on top of the Physics Building shortly after its 1964 construction. Galileo Galilei is widely…

The mystery of how exactly diamonds form has baffled and stood out to many scientists for a long time. It is believed that diamonds form around 90 to 150 miles below Earth’s surface with the help of extraordinary heat and pressure. This takes place in the mantle. The mantle is in between the Earth’s crust and outer core. However, exactly how they form is the mystery. Some scientists believe that diamonds form from some type of liquid/fluid. What is this liquid? Well, when diamonds are…

1st Root Race: Ethereal Beings from outer space were the first Intelligent Life on Earth and comprised both Good and Evil Beings, i.e., we had both Benevolent and Power-Hungry Beings. These Beings were led to Earth by beings that had already evolved on other planets both in our solar system and beyond…Sanat Kumara was one of them. 2nd Root Race: Beings born from the interaction of ethereal beings and primitive humans and therefore Half Ethereal and Half Human. This race is now extinct… 3rd…

Articles of the same subject can have both simulators and differences. Such examples are seen between articles "The Blue-Collar eclipse" from the Atlantic magazine and an article from Times Higher Educational. The two articles are about the same subject yet their content is different One similarity between the two article the fascination Shown about astronomy. Astronomy is the study that deals with celestial objects in space The writer of the blue collar eclipse is a lover of astronomy not…

Q7) Describe how emission line spectroscopy is used in astronomy for the evaluation of star composition light years away from Earth. Please provide detailed information. The spectrum of stars consists of bright lines and dark lines. These lines are produced when the star emits or absorbs energy at specific wavelengths. Emission line spectroscopy is used in order to find out the star’s colour spectrum. The spectrum can be found by using a visible light telescope or by collecting radiation that…

The paradox Olbers Heinrich Wilhelm Olbers German astronomer by 1826 in formulated physical paradox that was previouslyJohannes Kepler (1610 in), and Halley and Cheseaux (the 18th century described) as well. The paradox is that if the universe is infinite, we'd have an infinite number of stars light of the result The combination of the sky at night it should be clear to all.However, experience to the contrary. [1] Assumptions [edit | edit source text] If 1. the universe is infinite, 2. an…

In the endless reach of the universe, there was a star known as Arcturus. One day, she fainted and was taken to the hospital. The doctor diagnosed her with “Red Giant Star" syndrome, an outcome of her being with an iron child. The doctor advised her that due to her condition, if she chose to continue to fuse silicon into iron- to nurture her iron baby- she would get too hot and she could potentially collapse. Back in the day, Arcturus was able to combine hydrogen into helium particles in a…

Originating from cosmic events such as supernovas, chemical elements are the foundation of all life. Billions of years ago, a violent explosion known as the Big Bang produced helium, hydrogen, and all of the matter and energy in the universe. Generated in the cores of stars, nuclei combined to form atoms which constitute the basic unit of all chemical elements. The extensive expansion of the universe induced the birth and demise of more stars and consequently the creation of more elements.…

Uranus is the seventh planet of our Solar System for which scientists have about information due to the distance from this planet and Earth (a minimum of 1.6 billion miles [51]). Up until recently, our ability to observe it from afar was near non-existent. This icy gas giant experiences periods of day and night which last for 42 Earth years due to its 110 degrees axis tilt [14]. Uranus is not as stormy as Jupiter or Saturn, but within the 'Spring' section of the plant, where both cold and warm…

The article, “Our Universe could be reborn as a bouncing baby cosmos” by Lisa Grossman suggests that there may be a new theory to how the universe began, that seems to be more accurate than the current theory. This new theory created by Neil Turok and Steffen Gielen is the new Big Bounce model; not to be confused with the older big bounce-big crunch model. This model, unlike all other past contenders, has been able to begin the first steps in an accurate description to how the universe…
