Science is a very important part in everybody's lives. Innovations in science have completely changed the way we live. I would like to be a part of these changes by working with either nuclear power or possibly astronautical engineering.I've always been fascinated by space and just recently I've learned about nuclear fusion. Both of these are great ways to change the world. I've always loved to learn about science. In elementary school and middle school, science was always my favorite class.…

Mathematical biology is the use of mathematical models and concepts to help understand the biological world and the processes of disease. As of today, it is one of the fastest growing research areas in mathematics. Mariel Vazquez is a mathematical biologist and specializes in the applications of topological methods and computational tools to the study of DNA rearrangements, DNA and protein interactions, and DNA packing. Born and raised in Mexico to engineer parents and grandparents, Vazquez…

Scientists throughout history have dedicated their time and livelihoods to discovering, asking, testing, working, and eventually answering questions of the world around them. Without them the world we know and love, complete with IPhones and super computers, could not exist. These men and woman did what they did for progress, no matter what age they were alive in. That being said, the atmosphere in the world of a scientist can direct them to, or from, progress. The scientific revolution,…

How do scientists know there are such things as atoms? The short answer is that they don’t. No one has ever seen an atom. However, there are many more ways to show that something could exist than to have ‘seen something’. The idea of the atom has been hypothesised since around 440BC, but the idea has only been widely accepted since the early 19 century, when the atomic theory was first proposed. Since then, our understanding of the atom has significantly developed. But why is the atom so widely…

Without purpose, an object can not exist. Education also has its purpose. I want to pursue a higher education to expand my perspective on life. College provides a bridge between childhood and adulthood. I won't only learn how to become an engineer, I will learn how to live independently. This is very important to me because I…

A black hole is in space which it can suck you up, but you never know when it will. Black holes are dangerous but an interesting concept to learn about. So keep reading and you'll find out more than you know now. The purpose of this paper is to give you information about black wholes on how they form and describe what they do. Nothing, not even light is able to escape a black hole because of its strong gravitational pull. Black holes are the last great stage in enormous stars lifetimes that had…

little older, his father moved the whole family from Clermont-Ferrand to Paris, France in the year of 1631. Blaise neither attended a public or private school, his father decided to educate him, so he could create an unorthodox curriculum. His education mostly consisted of the learning of languages especially Latin and Greek. Mathematics were a forbidden topic in Blaise's education.T the fact it was forbidden made it, even more, interesting for Pascal. In 1640, Blaise moved yet again to Rouen,…

Isaac Newton was born on January 4, 1643 in Woolsthorpe, England and was known as an English physicist and a mathematician. He was most famous for the law of gravitation which was instrumental in the scientific revolution of the 17th century. (Isaac Newton Biography.com. A&E Networks Television, 20 Apr. 2016) In 1661, he enrolled at the University of Cambridge’s Trinity College where he studied a classical curriculum but became fascinated by the jobs of modern philosophers. Four years later in…

All of the following have to do with how life came upon earth, if it was created, how, by who, and such, it tells the theory and and if was created on earth or brought upon by a couple factors. All of the hypothesis show what is being created, most of which are creating organic molecules, or explaining how it becomes created and where. By knowing this information you can choose which you think is the most likely to be how organic molecules were created.with the Primordial Soup it was said that…

Working your way up to become successful comes with a lot of hard work and effort. Einstein started as a young boy to gain as much information as possible, which gave him a head start against many others who were trying to pursue the same job. Not only was Einstein a genius, he was able to spread his knowledge which lead him to become a famous figure in the early 1900’s. A childhood can be a period of time in someone’s life that can define the fate of their future. Albert Einstein was born…
