Astronomy Interview Astronomy is the branch of science that deals with celestial objects‚ space‚ and the physical universe as a whole. The topics that I learned in my astronomy class include the sun and other stars‚ solar system‚ stellar evolution‚ galaxies‚ and the universe itself. Most of the topics were very interesting to me‚ because I learned a lot about the universe I live in. Although‚ I now have some knowledge about the universe‚ there are a lot of people who know a little to nothing about

First‚ he discovered the existence of far of galaxies and was able to show the galaxies in all stages of evolution (amazingspace.org). These galaxies had never been discovered or seen before this. The Hubble space telescope also helped answer how rapidly the universe is expanding and for how long. Thanks to the Hubble telescope we were able to determine

The galaxies outside of the Milky Way galaxy are moving away from us‚ and consequently the ones farthest away are moving the fastest. “However‚ the galaxies are not moving through space‚ they are moving in space‚ because space is also moving. In other words‚ the universe has no center; everything is moving away from everything else” (The Library Of Congress‚ 2010). The Doppler effect is evidence that the universe is expanding. “In 1912‚ Slipher found that the light from all galaxies are moving

What are the four major features of our solar system that provide clues to how it was formed? Describe each one briefly. Four major features provide clues: (1) The Sun‚ planets‚ and large moons generally rotate and orbit in a very organized way. (2) With the exception of Pluto‚ the planets divide clearly into two groups: terrestrial

consider galaxies first. There may be 100‚000‚000 galaxies‚ because an estimated 50 billion galaxies are visible with modern telescopes. Every galaxy must have a number of stars in it‚ as many as hundreds of billions. Now we all know that stars have planetary systems. Then it is also a well known fact that the dimming and brightening of a star is when a planet crosses its disk. Also‚ it is believed that every star has a planetary formation around it. Now if galaxies are there‚ and every galaxy has planets

were needed before the appearance of the first electrically neutral atoms. The first element produced was hydrogen‚ along with traces of helium and lithium. Giant clouds of these primordial elements later coalesced through gravity to form stars and galaxies‚ and the heavier elements were synthesized either within stars or during supernovae. The Big Bang is a well-tested scientific theory and is widely accepted within the scientific community. It offers a comprehensive explanation for a broad range

Douglas Adams is indisputably hilarious. I don’t know how he did it‚ frankly‚ but even after having read this book at least once a year for over ten years‚ I still snicker at the funny bits every time. And The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy is packed with funny bits. Adams has a talent for taking jokes and comedic elements just far enough - not too far‚ but not too staid and traditional either. His dry wit is evident in every line‚ and he knows exactly where to twist the plot back and pull all
