Gravitational wave

to not understand what he was saying. Albert Einstein gave scientists the ability to know that atoms and molecules exist through Brownian motion. Albert was one who experimented the photoelectric effect in which he established that light has both a wave and a particle. Light particles were called quanta that had a certain amount of energy that release electrons from metals. Albert proved that whatever speed we are moving at it measures out to be 300 million meters per second in a vacuum. Which…

"stars" were not stars and were not only beyond our own galaxy, but were the most distant galaxies known Quasars are bright and are seen to vary at all energies. Having derived from radio discoveries, many quasars found interestingly do not emit radio waves in a detectable amount. Such are called quasi-stellar objects (QSO), but are lumped together in the category of quasar. In general, quasars actually are best seen and surveyed at X-ray (Finkbeiner 1992). While quasars have spectra similar to…

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…

being. Part B: Scientists believe the formation of the Solar System started around 4.6 billion years ago. They believe there was a huge molecular cloud and that a small part collapsed, possibly due to a shock wave from a close by supernova. This is known in science as a gravitational collapse which is (according to Wikipedia) “the inward fall of an astronomical object due to the influence of its own gravity which tends to draw the object toward its center of…

Black holes were, an amazing star that everyone wants to know more information about. Black holes can be dangerous, but all depends on how big the star was inside. Black holes form in, an astonishing way, and will effect the space around you. Black holes are extinct stars that explodes into a black hole. Also, Black holes have layers, named, an event horizon. Which, means when the force of gravity is barely sufficient amount to bring light back, and stop from light being put in the black…

Headed back down from London Town Currently, out of the 10,000 people living in Boscombe, UK, about 35 percent are under the poverty line. The community-wide LOVE: Boscombe Hunger Project had neighbors assembling meals for neighbors in need. The Hunger Heroes even took a break to sip some afternoon tea, the most quintessential of English customs. This crazy LENTIL thing called love Over 40,000 meals were assembled and sealed with a kiss at Will You Be My Hunger Hero on Feb. 13.…

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 four fundamental forces have been around before mankind. These forces shape the way we live and interact with the objects around us on a daily basis. These forces are so important, they are in existence throughout the entire universe. Black holes, the formation of planets, galaxies and stars are all because of gravity and these same celestial bodies have their own electromagnetic forces and the strong and weak nuclear forces are. Since everything in the universe is made of atoms, there is…

States, and the massive effect on a worldwide scale. What started as a tropical wave on October 22, 2012 developed into a Category 1 hurricane that altered life for millions of people, being not only physically destructive, but economically as well. The hundreds of deaths worldwide show the significant impact of Sandy, not only on the United States, but across the globe. Hurricane Sandy…

How would the weight of an astronaut on the Moon compare to her weight on Earth? Explain. The weight of an astronaut on the moon compared to her weight on earth would differ because on the moon it is gravity and gravitational pull. When she is on the moon to have a somewhat equal footing having heavy objects around on her and with heavy equipment would weigh her down making it able to walk where gravity reigns. On earth gravity is different because it is cause and reaction…
