Planets in astrology

Pluto as the dwarf planet that had its planetary status revoked. We know it as the distant 9th planet in our solar system. We know it as the planet billions of miles away from the sun. Even though all of these facts about pluto might be right, we do not know so much about this glorious planet. Pluto is a dwarf planet that was discovered at the beginning of the twentieth century. Over the years, there has been much debate over whether or not we should qualify Pluto as a planet, right now the…

Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars are known as the terrestrial planets. In comparison to the outer planets, they are small in size, made of denser materials, and lack a huge numbers of moons. Even though they share these common traits, they are still very different from each other. Mercury is the closest planet to the sun, yet its surface is either extremely hot or extremely cold due to the slow rotation of the planet on it's axis and the lack of atmosphere. It is also unique in that it's core is…

Mars harboured long-lasting lakes and water streams about 3.8 to 3.3 billion years ago, boosting the odds that life may have once existed on the Red Planet, scientists, including one of Indian-origin, have found. Using data from the Curiosity rover, NASA's Mars Science Laboratory/Curiosity team has determined that, long ago, water helped deposit sediment into Gale Crater, where the rover landed more than three years ago. The sediment deposited as layers that formed the foundation for Mount…

The second most abundant element in the Earth’s crust other than oxygen is silicon which if by mass is around 25.7g or 23%. However in nature, silicon never exist as a free or pure element but instead it mostly combines with the most abundant element in the Earth’s crust, oxygen, hence producing silica (SiO₂) or silicate minerals. The most prominent charge of Si in the crust is +4 rather than +2 which involve a silicon atom to bond in a tetrahedral manner with 4 other oxygen atoms giving rise to…

into a program that has little intrinsic value when the money and resources could be going to governmental departments that give back to the people. Therefore, if the space industry stopped receiving funding for frivolous matters such as counting planets that we will never reach in a humans’ lifespan the people could be better for it. In some states teachers have to buy their own teaching material, and across the United States college students fall into an ever growing blackhole of debt to get…

Scientists and astronomers are always trying to find out more and more about the outside world. The rings of Saturn are one phenomenon that astronomers are continuing to study. Just recently, it was revealed that these scientists who were studying these rings came to a few surprising theories. THEORY NUMBER 1 ON THE SATURN RINGS It has been concluded by astronomers that the more opacity that something has doesn't mean that it has more mass. They came to this conclusion while studying the rings…

mapped the entire planet down to 1 km. These images brought a wealth of information and it soon become clear that Mars was indeed a complex planet. It was not, in fact, like the moon and merely composed of a crater strewn rocky surface. Mariner 9 revealed plains, canyons, drainage channels and even volcanos. Mariner 9 evoked such enthusiasm that plans were begun for Mars landers. VIKING TO MARS In 1976, Viking 1 and 2 landed on the Martian surface. Viking orbiters mapped the planet down to 100…

much of the star’s light was dimmed, astronomers can also indicate the approximate size of the planet’s radius. It can also tell astronomers what the atmosphere of an exoplanet consists of by looking at the light from the star passing through the planet from differing wavelengths. From here, one can accurately determine the gasses in the atmosphere. (The Planetary Society). Problems with the Transit method stem from the fact that it’s guidelines are very difficult…

in diameter and it 5,827 miles away from Mars. As Phobos orbits Mars, a tidal bulge is created and moves along the surface of Mars as the moon rotates around the planet. Phobos only takes seven hours and thirty-nine minutes to rotate around Mars, and is one of the 18 moons in the solar system that has an orbit time faster than its planet. Since its orbital…

“Story vs. Story vs. Story” All three of these stories have something in common. What they have in common is setting. Setting is where, when, and what happens in the story.
