giants are mostly composed of gases, as assumed from its name. Terrestrial planets are also known for their solid surfaces made out of rocks or metals with a massive metal core. Only four known planets fit this description in our solar system: Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. Interestingly enough, these four terrestrial planets are the planets closest to the sun. Although these four planets are in the category…

Recent revelations in the news over NASA finding “liquid” water on Mars has gotten many people excited about the possibility of sending humans to live on the planet, without much insight into the actual reasons why that idea is still not currently feasible. A planet must have much more than just water in order to be a habitable place, and these factors are often overlooked, in fact the same factors affecting the water supply on Mars are also the factors that factors behind the other reasons it…

Created in 1965 by Stephanie Kwolek, Kevlar is a synthetic fiber that can be used in a wide variety of ways [1]. It is used to make body armor, tires and automotive belts. Governments around the world use this material to protect their soldiers in combat, motorcyclists use it to protect themselves against road rash in the event of a crash, and it is also utilized in ropes and cables. While these uses for Kevlar have revolutionized personal protection, there is one particular application for…

Hey everyone! Did you know that it rains on different worlds? On Earth when stuff falls from the sky, what do we see? Well it varies depending on the temperature but you can rest assured that what you see and feel is water. The stuff is everywhere! It comes in different forms such as liquid and a solid. So how is rain formed? Rain happens through a process called the water cycle. Simply put, water is evaporated from sources like rivers, lakes and oceans and rises into the air. As temperatures…

The surface of Venus was mapped in 1991 by the Magellan expedition, which revealed evidence of extensive volcanic activity on the planet--yet the timing of this volcanic activity remains a mystery. About 80 percent of Venus' surface is covered in volcanic material. Most of the volcanoes are believed to be inactive, yet there is some evidence to suggest more "recently" activity ("recent" in this context meaning within the last 500 million years). There are no lava nor caldera (craters created…

The kids who don’t remember the sun become jealous of her memories on earth and try to block her out of anything that they do. If…

The Search For Life on Other Planets/Moons For years and years scientists have had mars in their crosshairs when discussing life on other planets within our solar system. Now say we discover that mars is completely lifeless in every way possible. Is there any other possibility of life in our solar system? The answer to that question is in the moons of Jupiter. More specifically the moon europa. There is no absolute proof because scientists have not had the opportunity to land anything…

Exploration to Destruction Since man has been put on the Earth there has always been a curiosity for the unknown, especially for what lies beyond the Earth. We have gone from only being able to see the moon and stars with our naked eyes to studying Pluto and landing on the Moon. There are many different ways that we discover planets and many different components that we study. Some examples of what we use to find planets are the Doppler Effect, Astrometry, Transit Photometry, and Direct Imaging…
