Til this day there has not been any proof of such living things on any of the other planets. I do know there is a continuous search for the answer if there is life on other planets. I do know it’s possible considering how enormous the Universe is. There is a high possibility of life existing outside our planet. There have

system is a dwarf planet named Pluto. The existence of the unknown planet was first proposed by astronomer Percival Lowell in 1905‚ who thought that the wobbles in the orbit of Neptune and Uranus were probably caused by the gravitational pull of an unknown planet. After calculating the approximate location‚ he looked for more than a decade without any success. About 25 years later‚ it was discovered by an American astronomer named Clyde Tombaugh. The surface temperature of the planet is estimated to

Mercury is extremely hot‚ has a large core‚ and is heavily cratered with strange scarps. Because Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun‚ its temperature is quite high even though it is not high enough to melt common metals. Its mean density is quite high for its size‚ and that is due to its large‚ iron filled core. Along with being heavily cratered‚ Mercury also contains strange scarps from the pressure of the cooling and heating of Mercury‚ since there is no atmosphere to hold the heat or coolness

The setting of the movie compared to the setting in the book makes Planet of the Apes one of the greatest satires. In the movie‚ the setting takes place on earth in the future where apes deny and are afraid of the past‚ whereas the setting in the book is on a different planet where apes are civilized and technologically advanced‚ and the humans were primitive creatures. The orangutans in the movie prevent what happened to the humans from happening to the apes. Orangutans‚ such as Zaius went to great

We have inherited much from planet Earth‚ such as natural resources and every single one of the living creatures that planet earth is home to. However‚ in the preceding decades much has happened to our environments. After years of burning unlimited amount of fossil fuels and releasing harmful gases into the atmosphere‚ we have reached a point where it has affected our ecosystem. As result of the changes in our ecosystem‚ we have placed extreme amount of stress on living organisms. Animal population

is "Is there life on other planets?" Since the first famously documented UFO sighting in 1947‚ the idea of extra-terrestrial life has been debated almost non-stop. The subject has inspired many TV programs‚ such as The X-Files‚ and films (Mars Attacks‚ Independence Day‚ and the Men in Black films to name but a few). Scientists have come up with many new ideas and ways of trying to either prove or disprove the existence of life elsewhere. Mars is a very similar planet to earth in relation to size

Sometimes contemplating the future just means wondering whether it will snow tomorrow‚ or whether it will be a hot summer this year. We can think bigger‚ though. What will the climate be like a hundred years from now‚ or a thousand or a million? Will the greenhouse gases in our atmosphere ever reach an upper limit and start to diminish?

Once known as the ninth planet of the solar system‚ Pluto is now the second-largest dwarf planet. Composed primarily of ice and rock‚ Pluto took part of our Solar System for 76 years. It was discovered on January 23‚ 1930 by Clyde Tombaugh. Tombaugh was an American astronomer who worked at the Lowell Obeservatory. Tombaugh had been working on a project when he came across a moving object in photographs he had taken of the celestial sky. After observing a lower quality picture taken of the mysterious
