As humans we are very curious. We have explored and conquered all around Planet Earth. It's only been a matter of time before we move onto bigger and better things. Mars may seem like it is too far away or too complicated to try and accomplish, but with the technology changing every day we are closer than ever to reach the red planet. Colonizing Mars can happen if we get water, learn how to grow food, obtain oxygen, and get the materials needed survive.…

In Lee Abbott's "The View of Me from Mars," we are taken through a cycle of parent-child relationships in which life changes occur, decisions are made, and the altering of people’s lives. “The View of Me From Mars” takes us through the way a child views their father as they get older and go through different experiences and changes. Through exploring the many themes of this story, we can learn to appreciate the inevitable changes life takes us through. In “The View of Me From Mars,” we go through the developing of a child as he notices the mistakes his father makes, and we also notice the same type of changes in the girl in the story “Mirrors,” which the father is telling his son throughout “The View of Me From Mars.” The major theme of “The View of Me From Mars” is the theme of change which is prevalent throughout the story.…

All of the planets in our solar system with the exception of Earth are named after Roman Gods Mercury is the god of travel and thievery in Roman mythology. The planet is probably named after this god because it moves quickly across the sky. Venus is the Roman goddess of love and beauty. Venus is undoubtedly named after her because it makes a beautiful sight in the sky. Earth is the only planet whose English name does not come from Greek/Roman mythology. Mars is the Roman god of War. The planet probably got this name due to its red color. Jupiter is the King of the Gods in Roman mythology, making the name a good choice for what is, by far the largest planet in our solar system. Saturn is the Roman god of agriculture. Uranus is the ancient Greek god of the Heavens, the earliest supreme god.…

The Red Earth: An Analysis of Colonial France Colonial France in the early 20th century was a mass of contradictions. It was a republic dedicated to the rights of man; freedom, self-determination, and equal rights. However, it had a sprawling colonial empire stretching from Algeria in the northwest of Africa to the steamy jungles of Madagascar and Vietnam. The latter of which first experienced French colonization in the late 1850s (Herzog 9.3). Beginning after the 1858 war that saw the capture of Saigon, the French over the decades would gradually, over the decades, expand their influence over all of Vietnam Laos, and Cambodia.…
In the article “Alien World” by Alexander Zaitchik (2009), the author makes a logical argument about how Mexico’s impoverished economy is heavily dependent on migrant workers and how it has affected an indigenous people. Zaitchik is a freelance journalist who is affiliated with Poverty Law, a U.S. organization that supports ethnic and racial tolerance. Zaitchik’s article attempts to convey the idea that Mexico’s economy is forcing people to take desperate measures in order to survive. He uses his experience with a border crossing simulation as a way to lure the reader into the article. Zaitchik then proceeds to use statistical evidence to enlighten the reader about Mexico’s economic dependency on migrant workers. Zaitchik travelled to Mexico to learn about and participate in the border crossing simulation. He effectively uses his experience with the border crossing simulation, its participants, the Otomi people and his knowledge of the Mexican economy to effectively present his argument.…

As a geologist in the Mars One Project, I needed to do a lot of research on Mars, its atmosphere, its conditions, its soil, etc. My team’s mission is to find a way to provide nutrition to the astronauts. The contributions I have made with settling on Mars is, first of all, had to figure out the temperature of Mars. With the information we researched, we figured out what temperature we need to have in the greenhouse, and what temperature we needed for the plants to grow in. What I did separately, was that I researched what the soil on Mars is composed of. I searched this up because we needed to grow food on Mars to provide a good nutrition for the astronauts. The soil is composed of finely broken up basaltic rock fragments and are highly…
