    aid in calculating the friction and stress release in earthquakes. The size and hydration of a planet is confirmed to have a large impact towards the tectonic activity of a planet. Studies have shown that the overall likelihood of a planet to have plate tectonics increases with the size of the planet (Heck et al., 2011). The durability of wet and dry tectonic faults corresponds with the gradient of shear stress with diversity in acceleration, but can then assist in calculating the friction and stress clemency in internal temblor. Planets that are smaller are found to cool off faster due to the ratio of area to volume, which causes smaller planets to cease to have plate tectonics faster than larger planets. If the uppermost mantle of a terrestrial planet can be compared to Earth, it makes sense that the tectonics of the super-Earth and Earth can be similar (Valencia et al., 2009). Planets that have com-parable masses have the same likeliness to endure plate tectonics as guided by their ratio of plate thickness to shear stress. The evolutionary phenomenon of plate tectonics will continue to change as a planet sustains evolution and cooling (Valencia et al., 2009). The relation be-tween size and planets influence that the likeliness of plate tectonics increases with increasing planet size, usually with in-creasing density to also be a factor. Scientists such as (Heck and Tackley, 2011) agree that although the data they gathered seemed reliable and correct, further care…

    comets. These eight planets in our solar system are generally categorized into two types: terrestrial planets, and gas giants. The word terrestrial comes from the Latin word terra which means earth, land, or territory according to dictionary.com. From this, terrestrial planets literally means Earth-like rocky planets. This contrasts from gas giants, since gas giants are mostly composed of gases, as assumed from its name. Terrestrial planets are also known for their solid surfaces made out of…

    A recently released movie called Passengers, where an enormous starship is carrying millions of passengers to colonize another livable planet. The ship’s technology is very impressive. So far, our technology has only put humans on one other terrestrial place, the Moon. In the movie, people are put in a sleep-like trance that lifts when they reach their destination. This could have ups and downs. If we are all asleep when we are traveling, the travel would seem instantaneous, but unless our…

    It is pretty obvious that cable networks have more freedom when it comes to displaying indecent material. In the older days there was no cable, so there had to be rules for broadcasting to protect the eyes and ears of minors. Now that cable is more common, this leads to the question of whether or not the same rules should apply. As stated before, cable is subscription based. You only get certain channels that you pay for, therefore you have more control. Moreover, what is the major difference…

    Throughout the past fifteen years, the conversation of saving the human race has shifted due to humans focusing their energy on industrial advancements and disregarding the damage done to the Earth accompanying the process. There was eventually a turning point in time where people had begun to realize what was happening to the world around them and scientists started to research the effects of human activity on Earth. Gerald Meehl, from the National Center for Atmospheric Research, states,…

    transiting planet. Most of the planets that were found were giant, some even larger than Jupiter in size, and had a semi major axis less than one astronomical unit. Researchers found these “surprisingly small semi major axes suggest that many planets form at several astronomical units from their stars before migrating to their current locations” (Borucki, 2016). The processes that dismiss the inward migration and the fraction of planets that fall into their stars are not known, yet, “Kepler…

    Times have changed. I have seen E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982) a few times before in the past and always thought it was more aimed toward kids than adults, nevertheless, rewatching it again with newer eyes I have come to appreciate its cinematic value. The whole aspect of the film is done in such a skillful, clever, and humble way that focuses on family, friendship, and love. Given the fact that this is science fiction and dealing with a mysterious UFO landing, there is some level of anxiety…
