Jaspaul Dhaliwal 140355700 Disruptions of Evil Caused by Haiti Earthquake On January 12th, 2010, the Capital of Haiti was devastated by a magnitude 7 earthquake that left over 280,000 dead, 300,000 injured, and millions homeless, thus generating one of the most horrific natural disasters documented [1]. From being one of the largest earthquakes to ever hit our planet in over 200 years, the effects on the physical environment and the shattered community are still evident in Haiti…

Bay and set up a permanent settlement. (San Francisco History) 2. Q: What is the oldest building in San Francisco, when was it created, and where is it located? A. The oldest building in San Francisco is the Misión San Francisco, also known as the Mission Dolores. It was built in 1782-1791. The building was built by the Frnciscan…

Corruption is one of the obstacles constraining the economic and social prosperity in Kosovo (Mehmedi, 2012). In corruption funds are diverted from its initial goal and therefore fields like poverty, inequality, economic growth, the health sector, infrastructure and the education sector are affected severly (Abbink, 2012). The distribution of spending that was going to be payed to workers on this fields, tool and technology, new roads and social service are now being placed somewhere else. It…

The Kepler mission was brought to life, based on the basic human want to know if we really are the only form of life in the universe and if there are any other planets out there with the same conditions needed for life as on Earth. Kepler has been “specifically designed to survey our region of the Milky Way galaxy to discover hundreds of Earth-size and smaller planets in or near the habitable zone and determine the fraction of the hundreds of billions of stars in our galaxy that might have such…

Kepler is a spacecraft telescope observatory launched by NASA on March 7th, 2009 with the primary purpose of discovering Earth-like planets orbiting other stars. The observatory named after astronomer Johannes Kepler, is designed to survey our section of the Milky Way in order to discover hundreds of Earth-sized extrasolar planets with livable conditions, to estimate how many stars are found within our galaxy, and create a better understanding of how planetary system’s light years away compare…

NASA honoured a mission after Johannes Kepler naming it the Kepler which was the name of the spacecraft and the mission, the objective of the mission is to discover Earth-like planets orbiting other stars. The mission involves a high-tech space telescope. The launching of the spacecraft took place on the 7th March 2009. 5. Observed the Great Comet of 1577 when he was…

Nasa has just discovered a planet like Earth known as Kepler-186f, named after the telescope that found it, the Kepler. This discovery raises the possibility that a large number of planets like earth are waiting to be found, maybe much closer to Earth. One astronomer says that this is a tip of the iceberg discovery! Another says that it is a historic discovery of an Earth-like planet in a perfect spot around its star. Nasa says that future missions will study whether which planets are life…

like our sun, it’s absolutely impossible for life to exist there. Thus in order to search for second earth, the first thing to do is detecting Earth-sized and smaller planets in the habitable zone of stars. NASA’s Kepler Mission aims at this goal using the powerful telescope Kepler. Kepler is designed to survey a portion of our region of the Milky Way galaxy to discover dozens of Earth-size…

Describe five key aspects pertinent to the Kepler mission. (Please feel free to consult the Kepler website.) a) Some of the objectives of the Kepler Mission include: determining the abundance of terrestrial and larger planets in/near the habitable zone around stars. The distribution of sizes and shapes of the orbits of these extrasolar planets. And…

reasons why I believe that NASA should get more money NASA need more funding than .48 % ( Less than half a percent!) 1.) Missions like Kepler has found 1,031 “exoplanets” in case some were to happen to this planet ( Kepler- 452b) 2.) Global warming has become a bigger threat than anything else 3.) could this be science fiction come true?…
