This document includes information about the project Helios, which is a solar powered wrist worn fitness tracker. Within this document is a project overview, objective/goals of Helios, risks associated with the project and a project timeline. This is in order to ensure that the stakeholders: Kingston Steele, Don Heer, Rachael Cate and Akash Kannegulla and the contributors: Bridget Donohue, Maricela Valenzuela and Al-Khatab Al-Busaidi have the same objectives and understanding regarding this…

Among the benefits that user’s solar panel shingles have included, they have a sleek appearance. The smooth appearance has helped designers of both interiors and exterior to improve the aesthetic of the building that they install such solar panel shingles (Wendy). The shingles are designed to match mostly the roofing styles and eliminate the bulkiness that is noted mostly in solar panels without shingles that often stick out from rooftops that might cause…

Seaghan Kinneen 8.5 billion miles from the Sun, over ninety-one times the distance between the Earth and the Sun, stands the newest addition to the Solar System. 2014 UZ224, located some 4.83 billion miles beyond Pluto, joined Ceres, Eris, Haumea, Makemake, and the aforementioned Pluto, as the most recently discovered Solar System Dwarf Planet. To understand the definition of a Dwarf Planet, one must understand the definition of a regular planet. In a 2006 assembly that has gained notoriety…

ambition has combined over the years to advance our pursuit the discovery of new astronomical findings. One such ongoing effort is the Voyager Program. Two space probes, Voyager 1 and Voyager 2, were launched in the late 1970s to collect data about our solar system. Voyager 2 was launched from the Kennedy Space Center on August 20, 1977. Voyager 1 was also launched from the Kennedy Space Center 15 days after Voyager 2 on September 5, 1977. The reason for the seemingly backwards numbering is that…

with a few hills dispersed throughout. Bethlehem has very cold Winters and Falls, warm Summers, and moderately warm Springs. The Summers do get very sunny and with minimal cloud coverage, solar panels will thrive during that time. Bethlehem does receive harsh Winters though, which will have an impact on solar panels during heavy snowfall. Human Geography of Bethlehem Bethlehem is a mainly a great suburban town with a lot of social stratification. Bethlehem is where is is because Henry Hudson…

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]. Trust me it’s not fun. It is difficult enough to live in a cramped living area by myself. The most common topic when discussing human space travel is the effects radiation…

It is to be said without a doubt that the earth is the most breathtaking and wonderful planet in the whole solar system. It is not too cold or not too hot, it was just placed in the right distance from the sun. It has an atmosphere to act as a protective blanket from the sun and to provide us with the air that we breathe. Not to mention, until today, it is the only planet that could support life. Other than the many animals, plants, and other living things that it holds, it also houses the most…

Feng Shui, which is believed to share valuable wisdom, common sense and sensitivity to nature. Feng Shui depend on astronomy to find correlations between humans and the universe. According to (Hurley, n.d). There are a lot of Chinese Dynasties that influenced Feng Shui, the Tang Dynasty, the Song Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty. There are two types of Feng Shui, the Form School and the Compass School. Form School, the oldest school of Feng Shui, the Han Dynasty describes in it the “Book of the…

A common English idiom says “a picture is worth a thousand words” but sometimes there aren’t even words to describe a picture. That is the case for “The Pillars of Creation”. This picture was taken by the Hubble Space Telescope. The photo depicts a nebula with three towers of gaseous regions, hence the name; in a way, it is metaphorical. Fortunately, for the normal people in the world, there are no controversies that provoke unreasonable people. The article “Ways of Seeing”, by John Berger,…

to alpha energy, “the system will generate $1.94 in revenue for every $1.00 spent over 20 years.” Allowing the structure to pay itself within 5 years. Companies that take advantage of this solar system structure benefit from Federal, State and Utility incentive programs that generate clean and renewable solar electric energy. General public will be aware of the company’s commitment to doing their part for the environment by “reducing the offset of nearly 99 tons of greenhouse emissions”…
