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…

In The Metamorphoses of Ovid, Ovid interprets etiological myths focusing on desires’ impact on the human form. I will focus on the daughters of Minyas and the stories they tell during this essay. All of the characters in these passages have a desire that cannot be fulfilled because their human form or human social conventions place limitations on them. Refusing to live with their desires unfulfilled, the characters’ attempt to push the limits, but are always met with resistance. Unable to…

It started out a nice spring day, a little dampness on the grass outside. When you walked outside you could feel the warmth of the sun on your skin and the sound of the birds in the distance. To me it was like any other day, but one thing happened. One thing that I needed to work with myself and the surroundings to make sure that I lived. Starting from the beginning, I woke up with a day off of work thinking “ What can I do today?”. I normally take my time getting up and doing all my morning…

Driving the double paddle in the sea, you see them clustered into the haze while riding over the oyster bed. Light filters down below where the frilly oysters lay. You grab your two ropes, one tied to a heavy stone and one to a basket. You slip your feet over the side into the water that’s oily smooth, and the rocks carry you to the bottom. The bubbles rise behind you until the water is clear enough for you to see, while moving so cautiously so that the water will not be obscure with mud or sand…

What blacks longed for most, beauty and acceptance, was much like the sun—unattainable. They craved to feel the bliss of the white sun rays shining down on them as they looked at it with their sensitive, blue eyes. Instead, the touch of the sun burned them if they stepped out of the shadows. Donald B. Gibson, through his writing of Text and Countertext in the Bluest Eye, stepped into the shadows that were created by racism and elaborated upon the ideas Toni Morrison introduced in The Bluest Eye.…

We all have people we look up to, the people who flourishing under the sun with a beautiful smile, and little blush popping in the side of their cheek, or a fierce soul wrestling the horror of reality. These are the stars in our life can come from the closest neighbor to outer space. These are only glympse example of inheritance. The people we observe through tv stimulate us to inherit their distinctive qualities. Those are qualities that makes them famous, and especially defines who they…

Venus don’t get to see, the Sun. Margot remembers very specific details like the warmth of the Sun and how cool it looked. On Venus, the sun only comes out for an hour once every seven years. The other children in her class are jealous of her. A very important lesson in the story is that if you let jealousy get to you it will hurt you as well as others. From the beginning, the details show that the kids are in a lot of pain because of their jealousy over Margot. The Sun is the reason why…

Curiosity kills the Cat It was a very hot and dusty August afternoon in 2015, the sun had come out with a vengeance. People were scrambling in and out of the Montego Bay bus park. Those who waited to board taxis and buses to their respective destination, hid under umbrellas and the rustic iron shelters to seek refuge from the sun’s merciless rays. The bus park was very buzzing with life as people huddle in groups or pair to converse; those who seem to be travelling alone used their phones for…

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…
