    The first thing he did was make a way to organize stars. He also had a theory proven to be fact the hubble law which basically is the farther the galaxy is from us the faster it goes so if it’s close it’s slow if it’s far it’s fast. He also found that the universe is ever expanding. His universe theory of that the universe expands was the found to help the idea of the big bang so his findings were important to scientists. The very last…

    Lewis’s "The Dating Game", she analyzes the autobiography of Arthur Holmes, the English geologist known for his advancements in radioactive dating and theories on the Earth and how it has aged. To put it into perspective, the book tracks how ideas vary vastly over one man’s day. Arthur Holmes was an influential pioneer in the findings and research of his theory in the mid 1800's, so Kelly depicts his views as time has passed. Through the use of literary analysis, autobiographies, and the claims…

    contrast, we turn to the laws of quantum mechanics when working to analyze micro-objects and relations. Examples of these include quantized properties, waves of light, etc. (Robert Coolman, “What is Quantum Mechanics) What’s more, laws of classical mechanics—study of macro objects—are useful in that they regard observable and stable forms of matter. Contra-classical mechanics, the study of quantum mechanics is very probabilistic: in essence, everything is a theory, which is made even more…

    think honorable Font means that it is someone being praised or does something good. They deserve to be honored. Some accomplishments of Alfred Wegener is he proposed the theory of continental drift – the idea that Earth’s continents move. Despite publishing a large body of compelling fossil and rock evidence for his theory between 1912 and 1929, it was rejected by most other scientists. It was only in the 1960s that continental drift finally became part of mainstream science. Another…

    performed to help students further understand the characteristics of an electron in regards to various things such as its magnetic field strength and velocity. By using a Daedalon (e/m) Apparatus paired with Helmholtz coils and a glass bulb filled with helium gas, students were able to observe electrons travelling in a circular path. This is due to the uniform magnetic field produced by the coils which is perpendicular to the velocity of the electrons, the force acting on the electrons, and the…

    George to learn how to speak Russian and French. He also learned German and English. Nineteen years old, and one year after the founding of the USSR, George went to the University of Leningrad to study physics. He and his friends would often discuss quantum mechanics which was cutting edge science at that time and was leading to the secrets of how the atom works. George earned his PhD through his own investigations into the strange behavior of the atomic nucleus. For three years he worked at…

    Dawkins decides to bring a little chemistry into this chapter. He brings up the Bohr model, he states atoms being similar to the solar system. The way electrons go around the nucleus is the same way planets orbit. Elements have the ability to be present even with a varying number of neutrons. This is to be called isotopes. His point with this is that these isotopes are very balanced while others may be not so balanced. This will then be called radioactivity. Every isotope that becomes…
