    Goals Out of Orbit Since my childhood, I have been passionate about the sky and stars. I’ve seen the manned exploration of distant planets as something attainable. This motivated me to pursue a career in science and engineering related to space and aviation. Although being born and raised in a rural area in Mexico has made my path to an American college tougher, I never lost sight of my dreams throughout my journey. Lupita Nyong’o once said: “No matter where you're from, your dreams are valid.”…

    Do you ever wonder why the planets stay in orbit? Or do you ever wonder how calculus came to be? Well, you can thank Isaac Newton for these things. He was a scientist and mathematician and was a big help in the 17th century. Isaac Newton was born on January 4, 1643, in Woolsthorpe, England, United Kingdom, and died on March 1, 1727 in London, England, United kingdom at the age of 85. Isaac Newton studied for a degree in law. For college he enrolled in King’s school in Grantham, which is a…

    Sir Julian Corbett’s Thoughts on U.S. Hegemony of Low Earth Orbit Satellites – manmade systems deliberately placed in Earth’s orbit – undeniably benefit humankind, from enhancing scientific understanding, communications, and situational awareness to expanding commerce and development. Correspondingly, low-Earth orbit (LEO) represents the point of entry for the security, economic, and informational benefits humans derive from space because almost every manmade object traveling through this…

    Earth’s orbit changes throughout time. The changes in these orbits can have an effect on the Earth’s temperatures, causing cooling and warming cycles. The first of these orbits is called eccentricity. The Earth’s orbit is not perfectly round; it moves in a more elliptical pattern. The degree of the planet’s ellipse is known as eccentricity. During this orbit, there are three times when the earth is closest to the sun than any other time. When the earth is closest to the sun during this orbit…

    The objects between 42 and 47 AU are in very stable orbits – not affected in any significant way by any of the planets. Like the “classical” planets, these objects are in nearly circular orbits, so were given the name “Classical KBOs” (CKBOs), by David Jewitt. Of the CKBOs, about one-third have a low orbital inclination of around 2o – these are the “Cold” CKBOs. The remaining two-thirds have a much higher inclination of up to 20o or more – the “Hot” CKBOs. Hot and cold do not have anything to do…

    explicitly, they are a mass which, unlike a moon, orbit around the sun, and due to the pull and force of their self-gravity are of a sufficient mass that they form an almost rounded spherical shape however they are not of a sufficient size to gravitationally clear the neighbourhood around their orbit. (Williams, M) In comparison the definition of a planet, as defined by the International Astronomical Union in 2006 is “a celestial body that (a) is in orbit around the Sun, (b) has sufficient…

    system influencing them (Malhotra 1). The study of the eKBOs orbit around our sun lead to the proposal of Planet X as the object that explains the orbits of the objects themselves (More 1). The evidence is their supporting the proposal, all that is needed is the planet itself. What is Planet X or as it is also commonly referred to as Planet Nine? It is a proposed planet by Scott Sheppard and Chadwick Trujillo in 2014 to explain the orbits of eKBOs within our solar system (Hunt 1). The…

    launched to the orbit by people. Natural satellites A natural satellite is space body that orbits another space body bigger than itself. Natural satellites are not man-made satellites. They come from space and when a satellite enters the atmosphere of a planet, it’s being attracted by the gravity of this planet, because the mass of a planet is greater. So it can not get out of the atmosphere and starts to spin around. Our planet Earth has just one satellite…
