Approximately 557 Earth years is equal to 1 Eris year. Eris has a diameter between 2‚400 and 3‚000 km. Eris plays a big part in our Solar System and is important to us because it is the largest object and the largest dwarf planet to be found orbiting the sun since 1846‚ when Neptune and its moon Triton was discovered. In conclusion‚ Eris is the 10th planet in our solar system and is rocky unlike many planets before it. References: • Dwarf Planets; UB313 or Eris http://sse.jpl.nasa.gov/planets/profile

In Walter Alvarez’s article‚ “Asteroid and Dinosaurs”‚ his original goal was to research more in depth about plate tectonics. Sadly‚ his research was sidelined because of his intriguing observations of the KT boundary. When Geologist make original discoveries‚ they go about researching by highlighting the aspects of the nature of science. For example‚ they test hypotheses about events that happened long ago‚ they rely on communication‚ a lot of evidence‚ and collaboration. Eventually they end up

I should say my heroes - EXO. EXO is a music band from Korea and China; there are 12 members‚ which are separated into two subgroups‚ EXO-K and EXO-M. Their name was taken from the word ’exoplanet’‚ a term referring to planets outside of the solar system. In their music video‚ each of them has a special ability‚ such as ice‚ which can freeze everything; healing ability; teleportation; flying as a dragon; mind control and so on. I think they are heroes because they are not only good at singing

The question is should NASA fund asteroid studies? I think they should fund the asteroid studies because it could help us move to other places‚ it could save lives by building inventions that capture the asteroids‚ along with us trying to see if they have valuable resources. I believe it could help with protection‚ lifestyles and resources. The reasoning for these things is to help us out incase we try to move to a different places in our solar systems such as Mars. We could also try to build stuff

The Size of the Solar System Overview • Become familiar with the scale of the planets vs. their distances. • Get an overview of the solar system. Introduction It is easy to flip to the index of an astronomy textbook to discover that‚ say‚ the Sun lies 150 million kilometers away from Earth. It is far more difficult (if not impossible)‚ however‚ to picture this distance in the human mind. In this exercise‚ we will learn to access the often unpalatable distances encountered in astronomy

Solar energy is a vital untapped resource in a tropical country like ours. The main hindrance for the penetration and reach of solar PV systems is their low efficiency and high capital cost. “Solar Panel Maximum Power Point Tracker”.
