In this report, I will be discussing two different children’s books. The first book, Goodnight Spaceman, was published in 2016 by Penguin Books Ltd, written by Michelle Robinson, and illustrated by Nick East. Goodnight Spaceman is a bedtime story based on traveling to outer space. The two little boys in the book have a father who is a British ESA (European Space Agency) astronaut. They imagine the experience of spending time with their dad in outer space. The second book, Round is a Tortilla: A…

The texts to be discussed are as follow: ‘District 9’, ‘The Sentinel’ and ‘Victory Unintentional’. These texts are of the theme Humans vs Aliens. The self/other binary concept is conformed and challenged in these texts. For instance, in ‘District 9’ the self/other binary is followed and it is suddenly challenged as Wikus undergoes a transition. Another example is in ‘The Sentinel’ where the self/other binary is inverted as humans are seen as the ‘other’ and the aliens as the ‘self’ due to…

sun, you don’t have to do anything, it just works. It shows up every day.” – Elon Musk, CEO Tesla Motors Unfortunately for SolarCity, the punctuality of the sun is not going to be enough to assure the success of the company. The evolving industry of solar energy requires a fast responsive approach. For this reason at the end of the analysis it is possible propose some possible suggestions for the future developments of the company. The only glimpses of a future strategy that we can get by the…

The Gift of Interstellar Travel For centuries humans have lived on earth and growing expanding and claiming this giant space rock a home, but as time goes on planet earth is becoming not enough to sustain mankind’s way of living. Now with the technological advantages of the 21st centuries there is an answer to this problem and it is interstellar travel. With this one form of research mankind can thrive and exist beyond the stars. The earth simply cannot shelter the ever-growing human race,…

to get a better grasp on what conditions affect solar panels and which ones are able to work best and most efficient. With the rise of popularity and technology of solar panels it’s important to understand which conditions affect the efficiency of the solar panel. The conditions tested on the solar panel were various applied resistances, power output between a flat solar panel and “fisheye” solar panel, incident light angle,and efficiency of each solar panel. The maximum power output was…

Solar energy allows the conversion of sun into thermal or electrical energy and is considered the “cleanest and most abundant renewable energy source available” (5.) Solar power also is beneficiary due to its flexible nature – it can be built right at the point of use or it can be built similar to that of a power plant and have a central…

reduce consumption of non-renewable resources, renewable energy sources need to be considered. Some of these which can be utilized efficiently for horse stables include solar and wind energy (Shere 2012). Solar panels may be more usable for equestrian facilities due to the amount of roof space that the buildings supply. The panels for solar energy can be mounted on a roof structure or on a pole depending on location (Shere 2012). In order for the energy from the panels to be utilized the direct…

Introduction Quantum dots (Q-Dots) is very small semiconductor particles that means it can be either conductors or resist electricity depending on the temperature and purity of the semiconductor. Q-dots range in size from 2-10 nm, so because of their small size, quantum mechanics governs the physics of the particles. The synthesis Q-Dots were first studied in 1982 by Efros and Ekimov, and then many developments have reported the synthesis of semiconductor nanoparticles.1 Q-Dots have unique…

One of the finest blessings of solar energy is that humans are by no means going to run out of this large electricity aid even for millions of years. That is not something we possibly can say for oil, coal, petroleum, and different fossil fuels that humans have been dependent on for thousands of years. If people need to save the earth from raising carbon-emission gases, pollutants of water, and even global warming, they ought to change the electricity sources they use at present. Seeking more…

As much as solar seems to be and is a great way of harnessing an inexhaustible resource, there are two sides to each view. One side being that solar is a clean energy with out potential destruction to the natural environment and habitats. And the other that, even though it is clean and realistically free, it leaves an imprint. We…
