Neil Peart

very important scientific breakthroughs in history was landing on the moon, or the mission known as Apollo 11. Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin were the two of the three people on this mission it took three days from lift off to landing on the moon. It was the first mission that put a man on the moon but was not the last. There has been twelve people who have landed on the moon including Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin. All astronauts who have been on a lunar landing mission have been men. The only…

Much of my troubles with Joanne actually begins with Danette. Danette would often come to my office to complain about Joanne. This happened maybe 4 or 5 times. It was always the same thing, Joanne was complaining that she wasn't getting any support staff help, and was critical of Katrina and Alyssa. Danette would basically say that Joanne wouldn't need any support staff help if she wasn't so slow. Eventually it got so bad that on 3/6/15 I approached Burgess for help and explained what was…

For this Quarter, I viewed the Deerfield Honors Band Recital on the eleventh of this month. It was a great concert that featured many soloists and groups that played some jazz pieces and marches. I heard a lot of great music and I learned a lot at the recital. The first piece I enjoyed was Fly Me to the Moon. It was performed by Zachary Klein on drums who was accompanied by Alexander Ambrose. It was written by Bart Howard in 1954 but was made famous by Frank Sinatra a decade later. Frank…

Neil Armstrong was first getting interested in flying when he was five years old thats when he started to make models of airplanes. When he was six years old that is when he first got to fly in a airplane. When he was 15 years old he had his pilot license before he got his drivers license. The rocket x-5 was the fastest airplane in the world and Neil Armstrong got to fly it as a test pilot. After he was in the Korean war that is when he got to fly the x-5 rocket. Neil Armstrong went…

waving and the no stars. The reason there were no stars in the picture taken on the moon didn't have stars was because the cameras didn't have enough resolution to see any stars. the flag was waving in outer space where there was no oxygen was because Neil Armstrong had to twist the flag into the layer of the moon to make sure the flag would stay. Newton's first law is what goes in motion stays in motion unless an outside force stops it. Which there was no outside force to stop it because there…

Do you know who Neil Armstrong is? Or what he did? And if you do why should we care? Neil Armstrong was the first man too walk on the moon and the pilot too land on the moon. This all happened in 1996 July 20 he was not the first man in space however but that doesn’t matter right now. Why should you care about him? It’s a good chance that you weren't alive or were too young too remember when he landed. He opened up a whole new world too explore and thanks too him we beat russia too the moon.…

In the “Ambush,” Tim O’Brien portrays a sense of regret and uncertainty caused by him killing a young man during his time in the war. (MS7) O’Brien recounts his daughter asking him a question about if he had killed anyone while enlisted as a soldier. During his time in the war, he did have to kill a young soldier during a foggy morning while taking his turn to watch; however, he did not tell his daughter at the time (MS4). During the encounter with the young man, O’Brien had mixed feelings about…

By now, you've probably read part one and part two in our series of 30 shocking facts about NASA, and today we're here with part three! You might think you know everything about one of the world's most advanced space research facilities, but you have no idea. Number Fifteen: Stanley Kubrick. Famed filmmaker Stanley Kubrick was filming Barry Lyndon when he decided to use special lenses commissioned by NASA. The special lenses were designed for the Apollo moon landings, but Kubrick used them to…

O’Brien writes in a connotative simple style. His use of sensuous and colloquial language achieves his purpose of informing readers about life at war. “Cringed” and “sobbed” connote a call for desperation by the men at war as they both imply misery. Simple language like “begged for the noise to stop,” allows readers of any education level to comprehend O’Brien’s dialogue. As the men “light cigarettes” or squint into the “oppressive sunlight,” readers easily create a mental image through…

Some of most agreed upon evidence by speculators stems from the photography taken by the Apollo Astronauts. The claims state that the camera technology available in the early 1960’s was too poor at capturing shadowing and lighting that the multiple light sources captured on the moon must have been impossible and only doable with the usage of the use of external lighting. Believing that an entire camera set was brought to the moon to take pictures is quite ludicrous, leading to the only logical…
