Walter de la Mare (1873 – 1956) Silver Slowly‚ silently‚ now the moon Walks the night in her silver shoon; This way‚ and that‚ she peers‚ and sees Silver fruit upon silver trees; One by one the casements catch Her beams beneath the silvery thatch; Couched in his kennel‚ like a log‚ With paws of silver sleeps the dog; From their shadowy cote the white breasts peep Of doves in silver feathered sleep A harvest mouse goes scampering by‚ With silver claws‚ and silver eye; And moveless fish

Nuclear power stations work in fossil fuel-burning stations‚ except that a "chain reaction" inside a nuclear reactor makes the heat instead.The reactor uses Uranium rods as fuel‚ and the heat is generated by nuclear fission: neutrons smash into the nucleus of the uranium atoms‚ which split roughly in half and release energy in the form of heat.Carbon dioxide gas or water is pumped through the reactor to take the heat away‚ this then heats water to make steam.The steam drives which drivegenerators

The next night when he looked at them again‚ their positions had changed. He had discovered the moons of Jupiter. The scientist studied the heliocentric model and the planets movements for months.

“Early one morning words were missing.” When I first read Short Talks‚ I had difficulty understanding why Anne Carson wrote about what she did‚ and thought that some words must have been missing. I was confused as to how they all fit together and it was only after further consideration that I came to see how the sections unite into one cohesive piece. Anne Carson’s Short Talks is a series of short reflections on different subjects that at first do not seem to be related‚ but through her use of cyclical

In the 1990’s‚ Mafic Mound was found on the south pole of the Moon. Although volcano-like‚ it was formed by a different process. Two different theories have been hypothesized. The first theory is that the South Pole-Aitken Impact caused “a cauldron of melted rock as much as 30 miles deep” (American Geophysical Union‚ Brown University) to form. This melted rock crystallized and shrunk; the middle portion of the rock (still molten) squeezed out onto the moon’s surface‚ creating a mound. Another possible
