Calendars require lots of studying of planets and scientific research‚ which takes up lots of time and critical thinking. Calendars also reflect our lives‚ culture‚ and religion. Celestial bodies rely upon the apparent motion of bodies throughout the sky to determine seasons‚ months‚ and years. The sun‚ moon‚ planets‚ and stars have provided a reference

feelings were frantically spinning around in my head like a volcano that was about to erupt. As the moon led the way‚ I suddenly caught a glimpse of a menacing grave stone with my name engraved in it. I was in shock‚ trembling in fear!

In the light of a full moon‚ I glanced back noticing a silhouette of sinister dim bats that flew over. In the corner of my eye

This is exactly the same principle employed by map makers so that they can fit Texas‚ for example‚ onto a turnable page.

Soviet Union did whatever it took to tell the U.S. that they were better. They decided to become the first people to step on the moon. The U.S. found out and went to work on it right away‚ but the movie studios?

They broadcasted the “moon landings” all across the world‚ which made the Soviet Union very unhappy. But most people believe that this is untrue‚ but Buzz

EME communication EME communication‚ which stands for Earth-Moon-Earth communication‚ is known as moon bounce. The concept is to send radio signals from the earth to the moon‚ then by the surface of the moon reflected back to earth and then signal received. It means to use the moon as a passive reflector for accomplishing the two way communication between two locations on earth. As we know the distance between the Earth and the moon is very large‚ there will be huge path loss during the transmission

“That’s one small step for man‚ one giant leap for mankind.” With these eleven words astronaut Neil Armstrong brought the greatest technological race on Earth to its end. But‚ he did so standing on the moon‚ giving America one of the most illustrious victories in its short and dense history. Leaving behind the Soviet Union‚ the United States literally rocketed past their competitor to claim supremacy in the Cold War (a silent war for power). However‚ both countries achieved success in advancing technology

and the terrestrial environments. It represents the local neighbourhood of the cosmos in relation to the terrestrial realms which life has inhabited for the last 4 billion years. It shows the definition of the terrestrial environment to be the earth/moon binary eco-system. It shows that this terrestrial nature is part of a greater nature which‚ to a first approximation‚ may be taken to be the local representative of the huge abundance of those natural cosmic entities which every child knows to be the
