Solar power

Wind, solar and other renewable energies have been adopted around the world. “Power generated by the wind and sun increased significantly in America last year; but power generated by coal increased more than seven times as much”( Fallows).The amount of energy provided by green technology is still significantly very small compared to energy powered by coal.”Coal provides 40 percent of the world’s electricity”(Nijhuis). Wind and solar need lot of expanding infrastructure…

alternatives to oil, coal, and natural gas is the use of solar and wind energy as sources of…

Elon Musk’s SpaceX expedition to colonise Mars will undoubtedly change the world of space exploration forever, no longer will living on another planet be limited to science fiction. This leap forward in the survival of humans as a species comes with it a plethora of ethical issues that surround sending humans to Mars. The most obvious issue at this current point in time is human emigration, which is currently the only perceivable way to colonise Mars within the next 20 years. This poses one very…

electricity generation per capita rate in the world resulting 6 in shortage of power supply and heavy dependence on fossil fuels (79 % of total). At present, 7 only 10% of rural households and 50% of the country’s total population have access to national 8 power grid electricity. Separate researches conducted by Energy Commission of Nigeria and 9 Global Energy Network Institute (GENI) have concluded that 100% stable power supply from 10 renewable energy is possible in Nigeria. Yobe State…

There are currently countless things that hinder mankind’s way of living; sickness, disease, food shortages, global warming, lack of space due to human expansion, but through the power of interstellar travel, it is possible that many of these unfortunate occurrences could become a thing of the past. Susie has cancer here on earth while the cure for his disease could be lying dormant on Mars’ surface. Without interstellar travel,…

is made when the coal is burned, a machine called pulverized grinds the coal into a fine powder, then powder mixes in a boiler creating steam. Steam released from the boiler powers an engine called a turbine transforming heat into energy from burning coal in to mechanical energy that spins the turbine engine then used to power a generator. Coal is used for many different things mainly heating, cooling, cooking, transportation, farming. Wind is a renewable resource mainly wind…

Both sources of power have a cost. The largest nuclear power plant in the world is Tokyo Electric Power Co's (TEPCO) or also know as the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Power Plant. The largest solar power farm in the world is the Olmedilla Photovoltaic Park, Spain. Nuclear power and solar power are both a power source. They have many similarities and differences, but solar power is is still a better source. Both Nuclear and Solar are power sources for humans, but solar power is more convenient that…

the planet Uranus could be studied was through the telescope. All information gathered on the distant planet could not be confirmed with a close up observation. The launch of NASA’s Voyager 2 in August of 1977, intended for the study of the outer solar system has provided pertinent information on the planet. On January 24, 1986, Voyager came within 100,000 km of the planet. It discovered eleven new moons (Cordelia, Ophelia, Bianca, Cressida, Desdemona, Juliet, Portia, Rosalind, Belinda, Perdita,…

Vanguards that took place all over the Solar System. It was the Hunter, Titan, and the Warlock. They were responsible for shutting down the Taken King. Chaos would finally come to an conclusion. The warlock was responsible for stopping the Taken Kings assistants also known as the ogre. We studied every single spot where the ogre came out and when he would come out. The warlock wore a long robe that started at his chest and ended at his feet. He had the only power to stop the ogre.…

‘The Sentinel’ where the self/other binary is inverted as humans are seen as the ‘other’ and the aliens as the ‘self’ due to echelons of their intelligence. These statements will be further analyzed on how they affect anthropocentrism, traditional power norms, values, beliefs and interactions of humans with the environment and their surroundings. The self/other binary is organized into a pyramidal logic with the ‘self’ at the top of the pyramid and considered the most worthy and valuable.…
