Do The Twist ! Mars Has A Tangle
Article Summary # 11 Name: Manpreet Singh Date: 11-27-17

Title/Date Written: Do the Twist! Mars Has a Tangled Magnetic Tail
Source: Space.com
Author: Elizabeth Howell
Summary: Mars' magnetic field holds apart in the solar system because that gets rotated by interactions with solar particles, a NASA spacecraft found. The Red Planet also could have missed its atmosphere through the same method. Mars now has a thin carbon dioxide atmosphere, and the force on the surface is too low for water to flow. While researcher is trying to understand. Why Mars failed its atmosphere, an increase theory is that particles running from the sun pushed the lighter molecules out from the atmosphere through the Red Planet's billion years history.

    Planets closer to the sun are in better conditions and are well suited for rock and metal to condense. The farther away you get from the sun the conditions will change making the area not as suitable. That is why Earth is in the perfect place for it to sustain life. Planets that are made of gases and condensed ice have passed a boundary called the frost line. Planets behind the frost line have conditions cold enough for ice to condensate and form a planet.…

    In the very early days of life, Earth was populated only by anaerobic bacteria that didn’t need oxygen to survive. When cyanobacteria first made their appearance and started engaging in their photosynthetic reactions, large amounts of oxygen were suddenly released in the atmosphere. This lead to what is known as the Great Oxygenation Event, which took place around 2.5 billion years ago.…

    Where Do Planets Come from

    Zhong 1 Justin Zhong Ms. Ljoka 2nd Annual Holy Spirit Science Fair February 21, 2013 Where do planets come from? Abstract Astronomers have spent many centuries wondering how our solar system and its planets came to be. We could only see the end result of planet formation, not the process itself. And we had no other examples to study. Even with the knowledge gained about other solar system, we were left to wonder, are there other planetary systems out there, and did they form like ours? This project leads you to find out how mighty planets are formed from cosmic dust. The red beans (dependent variable) were tested in the vacuum chamber with Earth’s gravitation pull and without the gravitation pull (independent variable) by pouring water into the chamber (buoyancy counteracts gravity). My hypothesis was that without the Earth’s gravitation pull, the particles would clump up; and with the gravitation pull, the particles would just remain the same. The…

    Opponents claim that a Mars mission may be the most expensive expedition in U.S. history. In 1989 NASA estimated that a people-to-Mars would cost $400 billion, which inflates to $600 billion today. However, such an argument neglects a fact that a Mars mission may allow humans to know more about the Earth. Due to Mars’ similarity to earth, humans have the potential to find some primitive forms of life on Mars. It’s important to note that scientists have found evidence of water on Mars. Recently, scientists have successfully used robotics to analyze the compound of rocks on Mars. If people were sent to Mars some day, they could investigate the results in depth. According to Thomas Gangale, “If Mars is dead now, but was once alive, understanding how Mars died may give us a crucial understanding of how close we are coming to killing the Earth.”The more we know about the neighboring planet, the better we will treat the living things on earth. Humans will get a different perspective on life at that time.…

    The atmosphere is the body of air which surrounds our planet. Most of our atmosphere is located close to the earth's surface where it is most dense. The air of our planet is 78% nitrogen and just under 21% oxygen; the small amount remaining is composed of carbon dioxide and other gasses.It is a mixture of gases encircling the Earth and held by the Earth’s gravity. This invisible mixture of nitrogen, oxygen, argon, carbon dioxide, and water vapor protects the planet from harmful radiation and makes life on it. (Atienza et al., 2012)…
