The historians Schweikart and Allen argue that the exploration of the Americas is a pioneering moment in the future of Europe and celebrate Columbus and other voyagers. They described the native society as “a brutal regime that oppressed other natives of the region, capturing large numbers of them for ritual sacrifices in which Aztec priests cut out the beating hearts of living victims.” Because the…

like our sun had developed more than 4.5 billion years ago. It was a target even before Galileo had launched. Four spacecrafts had reached Jupiter before Galileo did; Voyager 1 and 2 as well as Pioneer 10 and 11 were those four spacecrafts but were unable to stay and it limited the information that the scientists had needed. It was from those spacecrafts that NASA decided to construct Galileo to discover more information on Jupiter and its moons. The journey to Jupiter itself was a hard one,…

movement encouraging auto shape appears as if it, too. However potentially we'll all take a leaf out of Tel Aviv's book and start zooming around the skies like the Jet children.

These effects were considered as positive (sparking the age of exploration, Columbian exchange) as well as negative (biological warfare, a genocide of Native Americans), but all of them were certainly significant.…

If you love stargazing come to the planet Uranus. It is named after the Greek god of the sky. With no solid surface, you're going to need to buy a floating house. But make sure not to move to a part of the planet where a night can last for 40 years. You will be able to see the 27 moons named after Shakespeare characters. Titania, Miranda, Umbriel, Ariel, Juliet, Puck, Cupid, these are just a few of the moon's names. Miranda is an interesting moon because it looks as if it was attacked by…

to the outer solar system. This is the closest approach to Jupiter that has even been made (http://www.greatachievements.org/?id=3642). 1965 NASA decides it wants to get a closer look at Mars so it launches two Mars space probes. In 1977 Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 are launched and sent to Jupiter and Saturn. In 1981 NASA made yet another breakthrough when it launched the space shuttle Columbia. This was the first shuttle to use both liquid and solid fuel.…
