Stephen hawking; theoretical physicist and cosmologist, have said: “ ….we must spread out in space and find a new habitat”[1]. His wording encourages and agrees about colonizing Mars and thinks that the future of the Earth’s…

How does the moon affect Earth’s tides? The is not the only thing that affects the tides the sun also affects the tides. To understand how it works you need some basic information.

This is because Earth’s gravity pulls inward and the centrifugal force pushing outward that is how the water stays in place but the Moon’s gravity is strong enough to disrupt the steady ocean levels by…

The Thronateeska was OK. The least favorable thing we did was watch a slide show about space. It wouldn’t have been so bad if the ceiling wasn’t the screen. The Planetarium is dome shaped, so we had to lean back in our seats and look up at the ceiling. It wasn’t very fun, but I did learn that Venus is the hottest planet. The scavenger hunt was alright. It wasn’t my most favorite activity, but it wasn’t my least favorite either. I learned that we live in the Cenozoic era. Overall, the…

A sundog is also known as mock suns or “parhelia”, are a pair of brightly colored spots, one on either side of the sun. Sun dogs form as sunlight is refracted by hexagonal- plate like ice crystals with diameters larger than 30 micrometer and their flat faces horizontally oriented. By day, with the sun, one of these phenomena (fa-nom-a-nin) is called…
