September 28th is a newfound holiday and benchmark of yet another view into space for mankind; after 15 years of searching for evidence, this day in 2015 was the day water was confirmed to be on Mars. "Mars is not the dry, arid planet that we thought of it in the past," says Jim Green from NASA, "Liquid water has been found on Mars." Dark streaks that marked the surface and slopes of Mars were further investigated and proven to be liquid water flowing down the planet's ridges. During warm…

Over thousands of years, intellectuals have presented their viewpoints on the guidelines of human existence. The Age of Enlightenment, hence the name, was a time of new thoughts, ingenuity, and a stronger understanding of the universe. In his The Marriage of Heaven and Hell (1790), author William Blake attempts to defy the teachings of an Anglican Church—which he believes has become far too corrupt to impose its authority on the laity of England. One of Blake’s aphorisms states that: “What is…

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).

A little over a half century ago, America began space exploration. In 1968, man orbited the moon for the very first time. In 1969, we landed a man on the moon and returned him to Earth. However, during this time, our astronauts were only white men. Women were not astronauts and were not allowed to go into space. Nevertheless, they still played roles in space exploration, although these roles were “supporting” ones. They were computerisess, secretaries, and wives. It took over two decades and the…
