Sagittarius

Modern day people have a strange affinity for using aspects of ancient cultures as a basis for their cults, prophecies and as spiritual guides to the future. Perhaps the most memorable occurrence of this affinity was the infamous prophecy concerning the Mayan Apocalypse of 2012, an idea created from belief that the world would end or change in some fashion once that year ended. Of all the actions generated by the aforementioned mentality, this prophecy was perhaps the most ridiculous considering…

SCORPIUS Scorpius, also known as Scorpio. Its name is Latin for Scorpion. It lies between Libra to the west and Sagittarius to the east. Scorpius is a large constellation in the southern hemisphere near the centre of the Milky Way. In Greek mythology, Scorpion was sent by Artemis, the goddess of hunting and her mother, Leto, to protect all the creatures since Orion said that he would kill all the creatures on the earth. After a battle, Scorpion killed Orion. Later, Zeus sent Scorpion into…

Space. More than just stars and stuff. Space is awesome. Both in scale and my opinion. Humans have dreamed of space travel, used stars for navigation and just generally drooled over the sky for thousands of years. There is a void surrounding us that is so large we call it “space”. But it’s not an empty, cavernous expanse, it’s filled with a multitude of stuff: from stars to planets, comets to black holes, there’s even a Super Sized Space Puddle.[1] Yet, some people aren’t interested in what is…

Newton’s 3 laws of Motion 1. If a body is as rest it remains at rest or, if it is in motion, it moves with uniform velocity, until it is acted on by a resultant force. 2. Acceleration is dependent on the forces acting upon an object and the mass of the object. Therefore, if the force is increased, the acceleration is increased. And the more mass the object has, the more acceleration decreases. So the resultant force (F) is equal to mass (m) times acceleration (a) (F = ma). 3. For every action,…

written world. For years she has defined what society has been about and focused on the world of man and matters. De was born in Maharashtra on January 7, 1948; 7:21:00; 5:30 (E of GMT); 72E50; 18N58.

The question of destiny is surrounded by mystery. Are we alone? Are we left clueless in the most important issues of our life, such as the four major questions: Who am I? What is the purpose of my life? What am I doing here? Who is my Creator? Perhaps there is a plan for each of us, as hinted at in the Bible: “Even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.” (Matt 10:30) And if such a plan exists, is it hidden from us or are we allowed to see what’s in store for us? The Bible describes early…

Sleepless nights spent ruminating and regurgitating past events all the while ruing their aftermath often drained Surina the next morning; nonetheless, on the first full day in space, she awoke restored. Certainly, her restful sleep was not entirely due to the profound physical exhaustion from the lift off to space. Rather, after her consciousness roamed amongst the stars, she gained a fresh perspective that allowed her to rest from the burden of her sorrows for the first time in many years.…

A black hole is a place in space where gravity pulls so much that even light cannot get out. The gravity is so strong because matter has been squeezed into a tiny space. This can happen when a star is dying. Because no light can get out, people can't see black holes. They are invisible. Space telescopes with special tools can help find black holes. The special tools can see how stars that are very close to black holes act differently than other stars. Black holes can be big or small. Scientists…

Describe the development of single dish radio telescopes and advantages of radio interferometers. Discuss major discoveries that were possible after detection of radio waves from space and how they changed our understanding of Universe. Astronomy is all about increasing our understandings about our Universe through observing objects like stars, galaxies and other bodies which exist outside Earth’s atmosphere. Astronomers make observations of these celestial phenomena by collecting…
