This chapter focuses on the definition and relevance of the facial appearance. The chapter starts with the description of the facial features as they are the basis of the facial appearance and crucial for the perception and recognition of faces (Andrews, Davies-Thompson, Kingstone, & Young, 2010). The distinct analysis of facial features played a significant role in the flowering periods of physiognomy. With detection of a holistic processing of faces, modern research investigates more complex…

source must be there on the moon to “feed” the atmosphere on Enceladus. Enceladus rotates once every 1.37 days, it orbits Saturn in the same amount of time; this is not a coincidence. Many moons, including Earth’s, have interchangeable rotational and orbital periods, an event called “synchronous rotation.” If a moon is moderately close to its base planet, the gravity of the planet locks the periods of rotation and revolution together. Enceladus orbits Saturn at a relatively close distance of…

During the 1960s to early 1970s, Project Apollo sought out to explore the moon. Apollo 11 achieved this goal when Neil Armstrong became the first man on the moon and said, "That's one small step for a man. One giant leap for mankind." Landing on the moon was a major milestone for “mankind,” but was not the only goal of Apollo. New spacecrafts were invented such as the command module, the service module, and the lunar module. Procedures for getting to the moon and exploring its surface were…

The International Panel on Climate Change has reported that global temperatures have increased up to 0.74C in the last century alone, meaning that the earth has been warmer prior to this data. This has initially proposed the question on whether or not humans have played a substantial role in the warming of the earth or if such fluctuations have been natural occurrences over the last 11,000 years. As proposed by Crowley (2000), climate change cannot be spoken of without anthropogenic cases,…

Saturn’s mass is 5.6832 x 1026 kg and has an overall surface area of 4.2612 x 1010 km2 . There is an orbital period of 29.42yr and the length of day would be 10.7 earth hours. This planet is made up of 94% hydrogen and 6% helium, along with small amounts of methane and ammonia. The hydrogen is in sheet-like layers that become denser as it moves closer into…

Which metals produce similar flame colors (according to your naked eye)? NaCl and NaNo3 both turned the color orange. 2. What metal ions are in the unknown solutions A and B from the barrels on the vacant lot? Clearly, and in detail, explain your reasoning. The metal ions BsCl and LiCl are in the unknown solutions A and B from the barrels on the vacant lot. 3. A student performed flame tests on several unknown substances and observed that all of the flame colors were shades of red.…

Space is a vast and unexplored region, the exploration of which is necessary to satiate mankind’s curiosity and answer the enduring question, “What is our place in the universe?” The need to explore and understand the universe we live in has driven us to establish government agencies, such as the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the European Space Agency (ESA), whose main goal is to study outer space. NASA’s projects have led to many great advancements, including the…

Space flights have been useful in scientific investigations and will continue to expand our knowledge about the universe. Future Advances in space exploration demands new approaches to meet the mission requirements. Spacecraft formation flying is one of the most promising technology that gained a lot of attention in recent years. Using multiple small inexpensive spacecraft in a formation flight has several advantages in terms of performance, robustness and financial benefits compared to a single…

through a semiconductor with the use of a small current. The creation of transistors was made possible by the Pauli exclusion principle, which states that each electron has a unique set of quantum numbers, and only two electrons can occupy the same orbital. Knowledge of the exclusion principle allowed developers like Shockley, Van Vleck, and Bardeen to create the transistor with semiconductors, which also rely heavily on quantum mechanics (they only allow a certain number of electrons through…

40. What is and ‘Where’ Is ‘SPIRITUAL WORLD’, Why Must Stay Separate from Physical? • Although etymology of the word is clear, when deducting all mere rhetoric and verbal & written ornamentation, one faces a situation that widely accepted the definition of a ‘Spiritual’ does not exist. Back in human history, the word ‘translatable’ to Spiritual was part of Biblical context as something Holly or animated by God. Much later, as human Intelligence and inquisitiveness about Life advanced, it has…
