be more powerful as the sun. It contains two main things that produce heat as it does today. Those two things are hydrogen and helium. The temperature it normally stays at is around 15 million degrees celsius. Which is enough heat to reach to are planet earth this day. The sun tends to be a bomb with this much material packed into one star. But yet gravity keeps it together. As time goes the earth will be consumed by the sun. The sun grows bigger and bigger every year. Which will eventually…

Ray Bradbury’s story, “All Summer in a Day,” takes place on the planet Venus, where it rains heavily all the time. The protagonist, Margot, recently arrived to Venus from Earth. Margot remembers what all the other children living on Venus can’t, the sun. Because Margot is the only one who remembers the light and joy the sun brings, the children grow jealous of her. One lesson that this story suggests is that if you get caught up in your own jealousy, you can end up hurting others. In the…

drastically when Brahe chose to observe the positions of planets throughout their orbit. Prior to this, astronomers had chosen to observe plant positions only at certain points in their orbit. Because of this, several orbital anomalies were discovered. In 1601, Tycho Brahe died and left all his observational data to Johan Kepler. These records provided Kepler with the information necessary to disprove the Ptolemaic theory by stating that planets orbit around the sun. This data laid the…

Well this has to be definitely the easiest question considering the location where we live. I personally play ice hockey with many people who work out at the space center for a variety of organizations to include SpaceX, United Space Alliance, and NASA. In fact, NASA is in the process of developing a charity team to play my law enforcement team. With SpaceX, Elon Musk plans on landing a Dragon capsule on Mars by 2018. He also is strongly working on civilian travel to space for transport…

mass of more than forty little stars” (65). His observations show how there are thousands of stars that cannot be seen with the naked eye. Galilei’s third discovery concludes that Jupiter has four moons because the four masses that orbit around the planet do not twinkle and have nearly equal magnitudes. He describes how the moons are “wandering around Jupiter like the moon around the Earth while all together with Jupiter traverse a great circle around the sun in the space of 12 years” (86-87).…

A star is known as “a fixed luminous point in the night sky that is a large, remote incandescent body like the sun” (Oxford Dictionary). The life cycle of a star is a very complex and magnificent process. Every star starts out as a nebula and have their own physical features. They all evolve and turn into something beautiful. Every star's physical features vary. Their diameters can range from 450 times smaller to 1,000 times larger than the sun. Temperatures expand from 3,000 degrees Celsius to…

It all started August 5, 2032 when the others came. Nobody knew what was happening except for Frank, the president of alien hunting, he knew the time has come. Frank being a highly trained alien hunting president for Area 51 for around 22 years, he has never experienced this before, but he prepares for the long journey. The others or known as The Blue Toad aliens they have been known as, since around Area 51 first established. They come from Pluto, and are rather tall individuals standing…

Two hours left before I administer the last set of microinjections. I loaded a set of Kepler’s works to play, as I meditate. If I touched his mind before, I should touch it again. Maybe Brahe’s nose will work as a meditation point. Imaging planets with noses should emphasize the motion and remind me of Kepler. -- How did the experiment go last night? You don’t classify as roadkill anymore because no one would eat you, now. See, the sky’s buzzard free. Nothing went right. I figure that when I…

isolation, and depression are things a nine year old should not be experiencing. Unfortunately, for a little girl living who's living on Venus, this is what everyday is like. The short story “All Summer in a Day by Ray Bradbury” takes place on the planet Venus where everyday is like the next, full of rain. The residents of Venus consider rain normal. However, Margot's family moved there just moved there five years ago from Earth. Margot has to deal with the torture of remembering her sunny life…

fall along the boundary between bands for radio and microwave electromagnetic spectrum, and have longer wavelengths than optical light. This band of light allows astronomers to probe the dark cores of gas clouds to study the formation of stars and planet, and see a very distant light that was shifted to the red end of the spectrum. The electronic detector is called "front end" that amplifies and converts the radio signals received by each antenna ALMA should be kept to a cooling 4 Kelvin (minus…
