    used a method different than most star gazers of the time. He mapped out the stars in relation to each other, instead of the traditional grid method used at the time (Smith 2013). He started out by studying the Society papers on natural history and matter theory, after he joined the Bath Philosophical Society in 1780. He also reached out to the experts of the time Joseph Priestley and John Mitchell on proper construction of astronomical telescopes. After he did his research, he started his…

    Researches have located a truly colossal black hole at the heart of the recently discovered galaxy known as SAGE0536AGN. The oddly enormous supermassive black hole is approximately thirty times larger than it should be and astronomers cannot seem to figure out why. Researchers from U.K.’s Keele University and the University of Central Lancashire have recently discovered a new black hole that defies all logic. The galaxy, which houses this supermassive black hole, was discovered using NASA’s…

    Does Dark Matter Exist

    Nevertheless, the existence of dark matter has been widely accepted henceforth, and research into it is ongoing. Astronomers have recently discovered a galaxy without the existence of dark matter(Shelton). Dark matter cannot actually be seen or detected itself, but, as Zwicky found, it causes immense levels of gravity. This newly discovered galaxy has only the normal amount of gravity you would expect to find due to its stars, planets, and general cosmic junk, unlike every other galaxy we’ve…

    Dark matter makes up roughly 23% of the universe, and is thought to be the cause of its expansion. Dark matter was first proposed by Swiss astronomer, Fritz Zwicky when he noted that galaxies are flying away to fast. He noticed that galaxies are flying away to fast that they should fly apart, dissolve under Newtonian Laws of Motion. He thought the coma cluster may be saved if it were 100x more matter than you can see. Theres two possibilities left. Newton was wrong or something was missing.…

    Each individual, whether they know about it or not, has this slot in the back of their conscience filled with this dark matter that, at any given moment, can be triggered and take over the more sensible parts of the brain. It is not a matter of possession. This darkness is inside of us all from the day we are born, and it only grows stronger the older we are. It is only a matter of whether a person is pushed far enough for it to be seen. People may go their whole life without this side of them…

    Essay On Dark Matter

    • 1945 Words
    • 8 Pages

    Dark matter leaves astronomers and physicists baffled as to what it possibly could be. Scientists design experiments to attempt to figure out what it is, but no one truly knows what composes dark matter. Physicists are so interested in understanding dark matter because it accounts for the formation of the Universe, as observable through studying the distribution of gravity within galaxies (Carnegie). Original attempts at studying dark matter referred to dark matter as baryonic, which is a word…

    Conditions such as uncleared drainage canals and a swampy soil in Kemar’s landscape are favorable to mosquito breeding and habitation. 2. On a broader level, stagnant water, excessive reeds, and extreme heat can also play a role in the increased mosquito breeding. Specifically, tropical regions are typical breeding grounds for mosquitos thanks to acute water presence from rain. 3. Shanae’s illness could be caused by the increasing number of mosquitos she has been exposed to, some of which cary…

    mind is focused on one set of beliefs, he seems to maintain the same belief regardless of anything and everything that could prove him wrong. It takes a great deal to break the concrete that he lays every time he has to think about a certain subject matter. This is especially true when it comes to kids. As previously mentioned, Jerry had a rough time growing up as his father never truly demonstrated love in a constructive manner. Misinterpreting the message of a steely…

    Black Hole Research Papers

    Time is a concept that for a long time was thought to be untouchable. This was until black holes were discovered. These collections of matter hold the seemingly supernatural effect to alter time as we know it. A black hole is a star that has collapsed and become so dense that it creates a gravitational field strong enough that nothing, not even light, can escape. When a star dies it leaves behind a very dense remnant core. If the core’s mass is more than three times the mass of the sun, the…
