Lost Moon

Pluto has several mountain ranges. It also has light and dark regions. Pluto also has craters that are scattered all over the dwarf planet. Pluto is smaller than a number of moons, Ganymede, Titan, Callisto, Io, Europa, Triton, and the Earth’s moon are all smaller than Pluto. Pluto has 66% of the diameter of the earth's moon. Another thing about pluto is that it sometimes is has an atmosphere. When Pluto's elliptical orbit takes it closer to the Sun, its surface ice thaws and forms a thin…

“The ancient astronaut theory all started in 1968, when Swiss researcher and author Erich Von Daniken published a book known as Chariots of the Gods, which became an immediate bestseller.” Within the book he put his hypothesis that, “‘the technology and religions of many ancient civilizations were given to them by ancient astronauts who were welcomed as gods” (Ancient Astronaut Theory). In the book he gives evidence and reasons as to why he believes in this theory, but one thing is wrong with…

some of the most famous quotes recorded in human history have been spoken by imaginative thinkers. Lord Byron once concluded that: “I supposed we shall soon travel by air-vessels; make air instead of sea voyages; and at length find our way to the Moon, in spite of the want of atmosphere.” Nearly a century after Byron’s death, a Curtiss NC-4 became the first plane to cross the Atlantic Ocean. Just four decades later, Neil Armstrong took humanity’s first steps on the Lunar surface. Lord Byron,…

The author of my biography, Ann Byers, reveals her positive bias about Neil Armstrong through the use of specific word choice. For example, she states, “[Armstrong] was far more than a dreamer... he truly believed that he could... realize his dream of... piloting planes” (p15, ¶2). In other words, the author believes that Armstrong did not just dream of flying, but was destined to become a great pilot ever since he was a child. The bias in the quote is positive, as the author complements…

I visited the Griffith Observatory on January 23, 2016. I walked around looking everything and chose about what I write. The three things caught my attention was Center in the Universe show, the planets, and Moon Phases. First, I saw the Center in the Universe. It was an unforgettable experience because the place is arranged with comfortable and recumbent chairs. The dome shows a beautiful blue sky with clouds around. I felt literality as I was in the sky. The show started with all the lights…

Now say we discover that mars is completely lifeless in every way possible. Is there any other possibility of life in our solar system? The answer to that question is in the moons of Jupiter. More specifically the moon europa. There is no absolute proof because scientists have not had the opportunity to land anything…

4 understanding of the Suns temperatures, in June of 2013, NASA launched the IRIS solar observatory. IRIS, short for Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph, was launched to use imaging spectrography on the Sun. NASA’s goal was to determine “how solar material moves, gathers energy, and heats up as it travels through a little-understood region in the sun 's lower atmosphere. This interface region between the Sun 's photosphere and corona powers its dynamic million-degree atmosphere and drives the…

in meaning as the book went on. Throughout “Karintha”, “Georgia Dusk” and “Blood Burning Moon”, dusk was a reoccurring symbol that stood out. Dusk was mentioned many times throughout these pieces. Dusk is used to represent the fading of someone or something throughout Toomer’s pieces. Throughout Toomer’s “Karintha”, dusk is revealed…
