If you ever happen to turn on The History Channel, you'll notice that the channel has gone from showing actual moments in history to hypothetical moments in history that probably never happened at all. Ancient Aliens is basically a show that shows people with little to no educational background in an subject close to Astronomy. For Example: That guy with the crazy hair, Giorgio A. Tsoukalos, is a 1998 graduate of Ithaca College in Ithaca, New York, with a bachelor's degree in sports information…

Composition of the universe; What it is made of? How is the solar system expanding? What is a black hole? How do planets form? All of these questions are pretty basic, but there is more to this universe, and how it formed, than you think. Scientists have been trying to find out the answers to all these questions, but it still is not enough for a good explanation. Without the understanding of all these questions, it is impossible to come to any firm conclusions about how the universe evolved. For…

The objects between 42 and 47 AU are in very stable orbits – not affected in any significant way by any of the planets. Like the “classical” planets, these objects are in nearly circular orbits, so were given the name “Classical KBOs” (CKBOs), by David Jewitt. Of the CKBOs, about one-third have a low orbital inclination of around 2o – these are the “Cold” CKBOs. The remaining two-thirds have a much higher inclination of up to 20o or more – the “Hot” CKBOs. Hot and cold do not have anything to do…

We can use BT with the invading UFOs. What’s the chance that an abducting UFO is from Zargon? (What is the chance that a UFO is from Zargon given that it abducts?) P(Zargon|Abduct) = P(Abduct|Zargon) x P(Zargon) P(Abduct) P(Zargon|Abduct) = 3 /8 x 8 /20 = 24/160 = 1 /2 6 /20 6 /20 This is the answer we’ve already seen. iv. -AT LEAST ONEWe flip three coins. What is the chance that any (at least one) of them lands Heads? We could solve this problem the way we’ve already done: count the outcomes…

For my major paper I would like to discuss the ethnographic component of Lucian’s account of the moon people in his True Histories. This would cover both how Lucian’s describes these people and the significance of what he is describing. I would begin by discussing the influence of other authors in his description of the moon people. His account is similar to those of historical authors and their descriptions of non-Greeks and their unusual customs. I would use this section to explore any…

Europa is on of the most recognizable moons in our solar system. This moon is the sixth (6th) closest to Jupiter and the fourth (4th) smallest of the Galilean moons ("Moons of Jupiter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia," n.d.). When this moon was discovered in 1610 by Galileo Galilei, he decided to name it after Europa, meaning or daughter of the King of Tyre. Over the last forty (40) years, there have been multiple spacecraft that have raised speculation that Europa has internal convection due…

On September 28th of 2015, NASA officially confirmed liquid water existing on Mars. Water is pretty common here on Earth, so why is this such a big deal? The big deal is that this is one of the biggest discoveries in Mars history. The discovery of liquid water, provides limitless options from colonization, to the fact that there may be life there now. But how did the media impact this disclosure? Normally space discoveries never get extremely popular. I thought to myself what was so different…

All summer In a Day. Was Margot really lying? Or, was she telling the truth? The story takes place on Venus, where it rains non-stop, everyday. Margot used to live on Earth, where she could see the sun every day. She, unlike the others, remembers what the sun not only looks like, but also the happiness that the sun brought to her. In the story, the kids locked her in a closet, afterwards, when they saw the sun, the realized she was right all along, which is when the start feeling empathy towards…

Water On Mars Have you ever thought that it would be great if there was water on Mars? Well, there is evidence that there is water on Mars. I never thought that it was possible for water to be on Mars, also water is a great place for life. We already know for sure that there is lots of water on Mars, it is just frozen at the north and south pole (Redd). The specific name for the frozen water is ice caps. The ice caps are gigantic, they are around 2 miles across each one and there are two of…

denser as it moves closer into the planet and eventually the hydrogen will become metallic. Saturn’s very hot core is made up of rock, ice, water, and other compounds that react to extreme heat and pressure. Saturn is the least dense planet in the solar system. It is said that if there was a body of water large enough to fit Saturn in it, it would actually float. The atmosphere around Saturn is separated into bands of clouds. The top layers are ammonia and ice, below the clouds it is mostly…
