• page 630 Our moon is the only natural satellite and it accompanies earth in anuual journey around the sun. The earths moon is unusually large compared to its partner planet. Scientists thought that when earth was forming a piece was sliced off. The Diameter of the moon is 3475 and the earths diameter is 12756, Which is about one fourth of the earths diameter. Most information of the moon come from the Apollo moon missions. Between 1969 and 1972 there have been six spacecraft landings.…

All Summer in a Day and Eleven both are quite different, from a group of kids living on Mars to just one ordinary girl turning eleven. All Summer in a Day by Ray Bradbury which is science fiction, is about a girl, Margot who a has been living on Mars for five years. All of the children there stay away from her because they are both jealous of Margot and feel a different sensation around her. Eleven by Sandra Cisneros, which is realistic fiction is about a girl, Rachel who is turning eleven and…

What is the moon? How was it made? The moon is a large celestial object that is orbiting around the Earth. It takes around 23.7 days to rotate around the Earth fully. The moon's gravitational pull can be so strong it is able to control the tides in the ocean. There's many theories about how the moon was formed. For example, one of the ways scientists feel like the moon was made is that a mars like object collided with earth. While earth was still forming a big chunk of it came off and was…

it is no secret that the universe we live in is colossal. Billions of galaxies among galaxies, each of them possibly containing planets and worlds of their own; which begs the question: are we the only living creatures existing in this universe? Up until this moment, scientists have not found any evidence of living things in this universe except here on Earth, but there are many convincing arguments that propose we are not alone. Knowing that there are more planets in the universe than the sum…

the how our solar system formed? Not only does the answer adds an insight to other similarly forming systems, but also satisfies our curiosity about the origin of our species. It is extremely unlikely that astronomers will ever know with absolute scientific clarity how our system originated, they can however construct similar theoretical models with faiths of gaining a better understanding. With that being said a simple understanding of the current physical characteristics of our solar system…

their private labs in order to get an understanding of how the auroras work and how they come about. Once television and the fluorescent lamps were created, they found it easier to understand and discover just how the auroras worked. “When a major solar storm buffets Earth 's magnetic field, it causes some parts of this field to rearrange itself, like rubber bands pulled to their breaking point. This releases energy that causes powerful currents of particles to flow from distant parts of the…

Last time, we talked a little bit about the houses in astrology and what they mean. (Also, if you go to that link, you’ll find the previous astrology lessons rounded up, as well.) This time, we’re going to go into a bit of a basic overview of the planets and more importantly, why we look at them. I think everyone’s seen the “It’s in the stars” statements or “What do your stars have to say?” And this has become the familiar thing- but, while yes, we do look at certain stars: it’s really all…

that could convert light with one to two percent efficiency (“The efficiency of a solar is the percentage of available sunlight converted by the photovoltaic cell into electricity”) (alt) The way the energy was converted to electricity was a mystery until Albert Einstein proposed an explanation in the early 1900s, that won him a Nobel Prize and led others to a better understanding of the related photovoltaic effect. Solar energy was not very important when it was first discovered to cause…

Solar Energy has been in use for the last one hundred years and through its existence, it has been a technology that has been constantly and consistently updated to maximize its usage. In the present day, where the want to reduce our dependency on fossil fuels is greater than ever, solar power is becoming a more attractive alternative for people all over the world. While solar power is only responsible for a small amount of the energy created in the United States, it has been on the rise in…

Sometimes I look out into the moon or the stars and I think about a lot of stuff. Most of the times I find myself thinking that there has got to be someone or something starring back in my direction as well. Although many people believe that extraterrestrial life is all fictitious, consumers should keep an open mind because first, with a galaxy and universe as big as ours how could one possibly believe that Earth is the only planet capable of sustaining life. Second, there have already been…
