Rare earth element

Rare earths are very significant when it comes to the development and use of technical equipment as they can be very important to the performance of the unit. An example of an everyday piece of technology that uses rare earths is the IPhone. Apple has said that the IPhone uses eight rare earths, from everything from the colored screen, to speakers, to the miniature circuits inside the phone. Although the amount of rare earths in the phone is very little, the demand for rare earths will continue to increase as the phones become more and more popular. Also phones do not have a very long life so as more are made, more rare earths will be used. As more rare earths are used it also brings up the question of how this is affects the environment and…

As of the 21st century, it is no longer controversial to believe in the existence of extraterrestrial life. While in the 16th century, a belief that life existed beyond Earth and its atmosphere may have led to a public execution (like it did for astronomer, Giordano Bruno), the same belief is held by 54% of Americans today. Given the evidence gathered through advanced space exploration and technology, the scientific community, as well as the general population, is more inclined to believe in…

had detected a strange signal that was 94 light years away from Earth. During the time of the signal’s discovery, senior astronomer for SETI, Seth Shostak, could only describe the signal as “interesting”. However, he rhetorically asks, “Could it be another society sending a signal our way?” Shostak, like many other scientists who had heard about the mysterious SETI signal, had hoped for signs of intelligent life beyond Earth and its atmosphere. As it turned out, the signal was nothing more…

Colonies on Other Planets Isaiah Dokus 1/12/2017 The Earth is deteriorating, and growing faster by the day. We are using up our natural resources faster than I can type this sentence. Eventually, we may need to move. Not to another oil drilling site, but to a completely different planet. Our knowledge of space travel and other technologies is quickly progressing. So we may have a chance on a new world. Other “habitable” planets have been found. The two most discussed are called KOI 326.01…

Have you ever worried about aliens invading? What about being abducted? What is our plan for any extraterrestrial event coming to earth, either in peace or harm, and making contact with us humans (Murphy)?

Multiple sightings and stories have been proven hoaxes. Popularization of aliens through media greatly accounts for widespread…

direction. The half of the planet not exposed to the star would freeze. But Berkeley Astronomer Lucianne Walkowicz says “tidal locking is not a how-stopper,... models show that it's possible to have an atmosphere that circulates heat around.”(qtd. in Nadis). Meaning it is possible for these planets to sustain life. This could mean there are up to 70% more possible stars then Drake originally predicted. A new study by Adam Frank, professor of physics and astronomy at the University of Rochester.…

Most believe they have a specific purpose and are in some way…

~Narkissa's POV~ I gained the element fire, Echo gained water; Luna gained wind. We only had the three elements, there is another one. The elements were just an amazing bonus. Echo also has the ability to become invisible. Luna can control the weather, if it is not too out of control. I can have visions of future events. "Fire is the fuel that powers your energy, that gives you drive, courage and ambition. We need air to breathe and without it we would not exist. It is the element that…
