“In 1999, the well-known American climber Conrad Anker discovered Mallory’s body on a sloping edge at 27,000 feet, where it had come to rest after an apparent fall seventy-five years earlier.” (Krakauer, 1999, p.18). After conducting further research on this statement, nothing invalidates it but one part; Mallory’s body was found 63 years prior to when Krakauer said he was found. In 1936, Everest pioneer Frank Smythe spotted Mallory’s body during a telescope survey. It was right where Mallory…

these creatures were being hunted down by the military, and then they were being kidnapped for further research. (Dummy Drops and UFOs) It has been said that in 1976, the moon landing was all a hoax made in a studio that was broadcasted across the world.

Rise of the Rocket Girls is an interesting read about the female computers at the Jet Propulsion Lab. The book detailed about the achievements and failures of the Army’s and NASA’s computing group for many space exploration missions. The book exemplifies the importance of trial and error in developing scientific discoveries. Throughout the stories of the many female figures at JPL, the theme of success and failure echoed in their legacy. Failure can be considered as a principal part of the…

to create an epic story of space, time, and technological progress. Kubrick sets the film in three different places: the African desert, inside a space station in orbit, and in space itself. When Dr. Heywood Floyd reaches the outpost station on the moon, Kubrick uses a wide angle lens to exploit the distortion of the lines. Such distortions make the station appear claustrophobic and serves as a reminder that the characters and we, as viewers, are in space. In the scene where Bowman appears to…

Pluto, the most puzzling world in the solar system, is the second largest dwarf planet made of ice and rock. It is 5.9 billion km from the Sun; it has the width of North America. It is a very cold place with minimum temperature of -370 degree Fahrenheit on the surface. One year on Pluto is equal to 248 Earth’s years; it takes a very long time to orbit the Sun. In addition, a day in Pluto lasts 6 Earth’s day. Pluto is a world that stands with light and shade, what causes this contrast may be that…

For example, In the ending of the episode, the podcast hosts exclaim that money helps motivate you to go to space but once you get there, it has to be about something more than just wealth. One of the hosts says, “Take the last transmissions from the moon, December 1972, when you hear them talking, you hear something else.” the sound shifts into a soundbite from the Apollo 17 landing, “We are coming in, oh baby! We’d like to dedicate the first step of Apollo 17 to all those who made it possible,…

Meet Tim and his four friends Skippy, Schlomo, Schlob, and Gary. A few years ago they decided to meet up at the moon for a get together. They had fun, hung out, and even hiked some craters. On the last day of their trip they went out to eat. Schlomo came up with the idea to play tag, and then Skippy said let's play the biggest game of tag ever. They all agreed and played rock, paper, scissors to find out who would be it first. Schlob lost and the others were given two hours to travel to…

Have you ever wondered how weird it would be to find weird objects in your yard, something that you don’t know what it is but doesn’t like it’s from Earth. In the summer of 1947, a rancher with the name of Mac Brazel had discovered unidentifiable objects in his pasture in Roswell, New Mexico. It was some sort of metallic stick that were held together with some sort of tape, there were chunks of plastic and reflectors, and very heavy glossy paper like material. Glenn Dennis stated “ there were…

The government should continue to fund NASA because according to the History of Space Exploration Project we did, it shows that we weren’t able to see what Earth really looked like until Explorer 6 was launched. This is important because for the longest time, people thought the earth was flat. Then, after that we said it was a sphere. But, we never really knew what Earth looked like until launching a satellite capable of sending pictures of Earth from space. These pictures showed if Earth was…

The drawing here is the same as the front cover except it has letters pointing to different things on the ancient Egyptian carving and above it is the tricycle, bicycle with a black man (=Africa) with a red canary on his left neck, which is the Canary Islands off the West Coast of Africa where the great tidal wave starts at. See chapter 4 for the detail of these things in prophecy. The letters A-B-C pointing at the tail of Draco the Dragon as a Hippo with a crocodile's tail down its back…
