    happens through a process called the water cycle. Simply put, water is evaporated from sources like rivers, lakes and oceans and rises into the air. As temperatures cool, the water vapor condenses and forms a cloud! Once water is condensed into a cloud, the cloud forms water droplets which then form into water drops. Once these water drops are heavy enough most of it makes it back to the surface as rain and this is the never-ending loop of the water cycle. In bad thunderstorms, the drops that…

    Review of Literature You get solar energy only through direct sunlight. It is the most abundant, pure, non-toxic renewable energy source. There is sunlight every day that shines down on the earth that is 100,000 times greater than the whole world’s power capacity.

    I’ve been on this ship with the Hesperis crew for two months now. We are somewhere in the middle of space between Earth and Venus. Travelling to Venus takes about 5 months, which means I still have three months of living (a very generous term for this situation in my opinion) in a 300 ft3 room with three other people [1, 2].
