In Harm's Way

Group Observation and Reaction Paper: Kids Incorporated In-Service Meeting In this essay I will give my reactions to a group meeting that I attended using the Group Work Theory. I will focus on the small sub group that was formed that I observed. For that I will review the strengths of the leader of the meeting, skills that were used in the group setting, and what stage I felt the group was in. I will also cover cultural and ethical issues that occurred in the meeting. Finally, I will review the…

planet? The possible outcomes are endless. The Firefly Galaxy is a spiral galaxy far from the Milky Way Galaxy that contains a solar system, the Phoenix Solar System, favorable for life. In the Phoenix Solar System is the planet Bibea. Bibea is able to sustain life because of its placement in the universe, the conditions on the planet, and how it was formed. Firefly Galaxy is very similar to the Milky Way in that it is a spiral galaxy, contains two major arms, two minor arms, and two spurs, and…

to them from the Milky-Way. Hubble was able to detect nine other new galaxies. Later, in 1925, Hubble came up with a galaxy classification system, which breaks down, or classifies galaxies. Hubble continued to work with galaxies, discovering the distances of over 20 galaxies from the Milky-Way. Perhaps Hubble’s greatest discovery came when he made Hubble’s Law. His law made two important conclusions: One was that distant galaxies seemed to be moving away from the MIlky-Way. Second, the farther…

Fixtures of the northern sky, the Big and Little Dippers, swing around the North Star, Polaris, once a day or once every 23 hours and 56 minutes. Polaris marks the north celestial pole around which all the stars of the northern sky appears to rotate. It also marks the end of the Little Dipper’s handle and the whole constellation (Ursa Minor) is circumpolar, which means it’s always above the horizon in northern latitudes to as far south as the tropic of Cancer (23.5 degrees north latitude). The…

was bad my tent was wet. Then i had to move it and it rained again and we didn't get as wet. But i like that cave the best it was very pretty. When i went to Texas i took us with all our stops 22 hours we drove the whole thing one the way back but not on the way there.I went to go see my brother he graduated the air force. I went with my whole family there was six plus my brother girl friend. We went on this 750 tower called Tower of Americas. He is going in to the honor guards We walked the…

eligible to become a stellar black hole, scientists can estimate that there are as many as ten million to one billion black holes in our galaxy alone. The stellar black holes are a lot more common because it is easier for them to form. One possible way for the creation of these massive black holes involves a series of chain collisions in a compact clusters of stars. This results in the buildup of extremely massive black holes, which then collapse to form medium sized black holes. These then…

The Life Cycle of Stars The life cycle of a star is an incredible, miraculous phenomenon that begins with just two elements: helium and hydrogen. The result is the all well known star that is seen twinkling in the night sky and also what lights up the day here on Earth. There are hundreds upon thousands of stars that take on many different sizes and colors. Depending on the size of the star from its birth, the star could take two paths at the end of its life: turn into a nebula leaving behind a…

galaxies in 1936. 11. Hubble believed that all galaxies start off as elliptical changed into spirals later on in its life, and finally becomes a spiral galaxy. We now know that once a type of galaxy forms it does not change shape. 12. Unlike the Milky Way, most stars in different galaxies have pairs. These pairs of stars are known…

The very idea of planets orbiting around stars would have shattered the views of many people throughout history. After the Copernican revolution taught us that the Earth is not at the center of the universe but rather planets orbits the Sun opened up the possibility that planets might also orbit other stars. About two decades ago, a new scientific revolution began with the first discoveries of planets orbiting around other stars, called exoplanets. An exoplanet, is any planet that orbits a star…
