As debates rise over whether active SETI should be pursued‚ perhaps the debate should spend some time deciding what messages should be sent into space. Afterall‚ a large part of determining whether humans should actively seek for contact with extraterrestrials lies in deciding if the repercussions of such actions would be positive or negative to the human race; positive or negative that would be in large part due to the messages sent. The importance of the content of messages shows its significance

A Cyclic Universe: A New Model to Rival the Big Bang Theory Phys 1070- Astronomy Topical Essay Motivated by the M-theory‚ space-time ‘branes’ and extra-dimensions‚ scientists Paul J. Steinhardt and Neil Turok introduce a tantalizing alternative to the prevailing standard Big Bang-Inflation model of cosmology. Traditionally‚ the Big Bang-Inflation model features an explosive epoch 15 billion years ago when time and space sprung into existence followed by a fraction of a second of superluminal expansion

volcanoes that exist in the universe. However‚ one extraterrestrial volcano‚ perhaps the most commonly refered to extraterrestrial volcano‚ has developed a bit of name recognition over the years. Olympus Mons‚ one of the many volcanos found on Mars‚ is a giant shield volcano ("Mars | Volcano World | Oregon State University"‚ 2016). To give the phrase "giant sheild volcano" scale‚ Olympus Mons is 374 miles in diameter‚ meaning the extraterrestrial volcano is roughly the size of the state of Arizona

8. Meteorites What are impact craters? Impact Craters are depressions on many planetary surfaces. How are craters formed? They are formed by the impact of chunks of interplanetary matter (meteorites) striking the surface. Upon first impact‚ shock waves dissipate the energy of the meteorite through the ground. The ground is compressed rapidly and severely‚ and may be fractured‚ melted or vaporized Next‚ the surface is decompressed‚ and the material is flung violently out from the impact

Mercury : Due to mercury being extremely close to the sun‚ causes its planet to have no atmosphere. If any air was ever around Mercury‚ it would have been within its early years and from that point to now‚ it is gone because of all of the heat being given off of the sun. Mercury has crazy weather issues because of the lack of atmosphere‚ which includes a drastic weather change within day to night.Whenever the sun touches the surface of Mercury‚ that is when the climate reaches its highess at
