Over 104 years ago, on August 7th, 1912, an Austrian scientist named Victor Hess changed the Astronomy and Physics world forever when he discovered cosmic rays through a strange experiment that took place in a hot air balloon. Cosmic rays are high-energy, subatomic particles that appear outside the Earth’s atmosphere. These rays are known to strike to down on Earth, which may seem dangerous but even very energetic primary rays crash into the Earth’s atmosphere and they basically never make it to…
Marisol shone so brightly right then. She burned hotter than a supernova. She was so bright that even Julia couldn’t consume her light. Without a word to the teacher, Marisol marched her to the guidance counselor’s office. The door was closed, but Marisol didn’t knock. She just barged in, black hair streaming behind her…
holes. But the same year Karl Schwarzschild proved that theory correct. And people have performed more and more experiments to enhance our understanding of black holes. In 2015 a star 25x the size of our sun was supposed to explode into a huge supernova but it got crushed under it's own weight and became a new black hole and that is the only black hole we have seen form in record. Our universe would be really different if we didn't have black holes so i'm going to tell you about how the…
The myth of the Ecological Indian, has influenced historians’ beliefs for centuries. The thought that Native American’s were a part of nature, never exploiting their resources, a primitive species, a peaceful people, is a stereotype that is proven wrong by the paramount chiefdom of Cahokia. The stratified community, of what was in its day, a powerful unprecedented empire in North America, calls into question who Native Americans were believed to be. Cahokia, a Mississippian culture, is one of…
Cosmos episode 13, “Unafraid of the dark”, begins by talking about the vast amount of scrolls and information that was kept in the library of Alexandria. Many of the books and scrolls were lost when the mob attacked and destroyed the library. This is shocking because of all the history of Ancient times that he's been lost due to the destruction of these books. Although we lost many discoveries, we as humans continue to learn new information about the universe. This begins the discovery of…
Galileo continued to further his argument with evidence of observable comets and supernovas, which show that the sunspots are not an isolated event, and that many imperfection can be observed with new the new tools of his time. Galileo also points out that the sunspots are a recurring phenomenon. This makes them constant proof of the imperfect…
focus on any astronomer’s agenda, and possibly the only objects that exist above us. However, stars are in fact the most tedious aspect of astronomy. There is an abundance of other astronomical phenomena such as supernovas, for example the vibrant hues of the impressive Crab Nebula. A supernova is the majestic explosion that occurs when a giant star reaches its final days, exploding and exhibiting an eternal fireworks show for all viewers in our galaxy. Nebulae are the finest form of art in the…
interstellar dust (mostly carbon or silicon) and hydrogen gas floating around in space. This gas can be floating for millions of years until the gas and dust distributed by the gravity of a phenomena such as a streaking comet, a shockwave from a nearby supernova, or colliding galaxies.…
polish then you may upload trinkets shine in your nails. Even as for its personal sample you are loose to decide its type. A few examples of promenade nail the fave is bright Turquoise, Royal Blue metal with smooth color, Floral, sweet green, Gold Supernova Glitter smooth, Blue Ribbon promenade, and Lime inexperienced. This is all approximately promenade nail…
inspired the public.More than 45 terabytes have been collected. The 45 and more terabytes that have been collected,provides lights into the universe,from objects as close to the moon to the most remote galaxies,with incredible photos of supernovas and nebulas in between. In 1923 a German scientist Hermann Oberth first suggested that that a telescope could be launched into orbit to help overcome…
