Once the smallest member of the planetary system and now merely a “dwarf planet”, Pluto’s story has always fascinated people of the Earth. The tiny planet always manages to intrigue scientists and if the latest report is anything to go by, one can only say that Pluto is peculiar to the core. Scientists are saying that the planet may have hosted liquids on its surface within the last million years. The fact was stated in a report which was tabled at the Lunar and Planetary Science Conference on…

Water bears are hearty creatures, which inspire people to create useful things, such as the development of a special type of glass and a refrigerator-free form of storage. Water bears are tardigrades, and their hardiness has been put to the test. There are 900 known species of tardigrades. Water bears are also known as moss piglets. German pastor Johann August Ephraim Goeze discovered them in 1776 and named them tardigrade kleiner wasserbar, which means little water bear in German. They were…

of metals, rock, and hydrogen compounds. Jupiter, on the other hand is made almost entirely of hydrogen and helium 4. Because of its large size, Jupiter loses heat very slowly. The planet is still slowly contracting. Contraction converts gravitational energy into thermal energy. Neptune also uses contraction as a way of generating internal heat. Saturn, on the other hand, has liquid helium raining into its interior and it has a less extreme core temperature than Jupiter. 6. Different types of…

Within this center atomic particles called Protons begin to collide with such force that nuclear fusion will occur. Hydrogen atoms, which are relatively light in weight, will form heavier Helium atoms and release energy. With billions of these small reactions occurring energy streams outwards from the center and is emitted as light and heat. Stars are born in clusters, when these clusters are well populated they remain together and allow…

field with an intensity that is far greater than a resistive magnet or a permanent magnet. • The operating cost of a superconducting magnet is low, this is due to the fact that it does not need to be powered by electricity. Although it consumes liquid helium which is expensive, the operating costs are still lower than the normal or permanent magnets [6]. • These magnets are compact [find reference]. It is compact in the sense that the current can keep increasing without creating any heat. This…

rays would bounce off off different atoms. Ernest was responsible for a remarkable series of discoveries in the fields of radioactivity and nuclear physics. Alpha and Beta rays set forth the laws of radioactive decay and identified alpha particles (helium nuclei). This would change science forever. Ernest conducted research that…

thousands the output of our sun. They reside in the top region of the Hertzsprung-Russel diagram; having temperatures from 3,500k to over 20,000k and having bolometric absolute magnitudes between -5 and-12. Supergiants are massive enough to begin burning helium gently in their core before it becomes degenerate, and without the strong dredge-ups that lower-mass stars experience. They are able to go on successfully igniting heavier elements, usually all the way to iron. These stars are classified…

Some might ask, “What is a project loon?” A project loon is described as “balloon-powered Internet for everyone”. (2) The balloons are fifteen meters across and are filled with helium. The altitude of these balloons is about twenty kilometers. The balloons contains solar-powered electronics inside a boxy gondola. These electronics send high-speed cellular Internet coverage to devices. The balloon has special software that guides these balloons while they are in flight. Project Loon is named for…

Surgeons have one of the most important roles in medicine. They deal with the most extreme cases of physical health, injury or disease. The work of surgeons not only saves lives, but it also improves the quality of life for patients dealing with chronic and restrictive injuries.That's why i chose a surgeon The country's images of the Midwest and Kansas City, like flyover country, cow town and endless open prairies, the truth is that Kansas City, Missouri – the larger of two cities that bear the…

So supposedly because of the stars, I fit into our cosmic bubble because the stars are associated with the cosmic bubble. Stars were created when clumps of hydrogen formed together to create helium while releasing light. This fusion continued on until stars created enough iron and an enormous amount of energy explodes that is called a supernova.This fusion would not have been completed without the stars heating up to 13 miliion degrees. Stardust was then spread out with the elements and the…
