3. There are 26 brightest stars Please describe the stars luminosity/temperature/mass relationship, coordinates of celestial systems, declination

Higher air pressure means denser air. Which means low cloud formations and bad weather.
15. thunderstorms- the action of warm air rising and cold air sinking. Tornadoe-air rotates because wind shear, faster spin makes a funnel cloud, the funnel rotates and touches down. hurricane-as surface pressure continues to drop, a tropical storm becomes a hurricane when sustained wind speed exceeds 64 knots. * don’t forget about the warm waters associated with hurricanes.
16. A thermometer measures air temperature. A baromete measures air pressure. A sling psychrometer mesaures the humidity. A rain gauge measures the amount of rain fall.
17. ask a question. Do background research. Construct a hypothesis. Do an experiment. Analyze your data. Communicate.
18. pseudoscience examples- crop circles, face on mars, the search for big foot.
19. Theories are developed by a multi step process. First is by a hypothesis, then the scientists see if the hypothesis can be proved then is put into a theorie.
20. The difference is that theories can be turned into laws, or remain theories. But once its a law, it cannot be changed back. * Theories cannot become laws. See page 2 of discover tab, Misconceptions in lesson 03 for Beginning with

    The big bang theory is a cosmological theory holding that the universe originated approximately 20 billion years ago from the violent explosion of a very small agglomeration of matter of extremely high density and temperature. This to me suggest that something existed before the universe because you cannot get something from nothing. The authors of the book “A Brief History of Time” Hawkins S.W states that since we only know what happens after the big bang we cannot include prior events in our theory of the earth, so we should accept the big gang theory as the beginning of time. (Hawkins, Mlodinow, Leonard, 2005).…
