understand the planet and atmosphere of Earth’s neighbor. Yet‚ Pioneer 10 had three primary goals: make in situ measurements of Jupiter‚ study the asteroid belt‚ and investigate the planetary medium. The first‚ to make in situ measurements of Jupiter‚ included taking measurements of and understanding the planet’s atmosphere‚ take close-up images of the planet‚ and continue on to fly past Saturn. For the second goal‚ the asteroid belt is the circular groupings of asteroids and small planets in

Ptolemaic system is a geocentric cosmology assuming that the Earth is stationary and the centre of the universe. Ptolemy’s model showed that planets revolved around a point and that point revolved around another point which was earth. In order to explain the motion of the planets‚ Ptolemy combined eccentricity with an epicyclic model where he assumed the planets moved on a small sphere or circle‚ called an epicycle‚ that moved on a larger sphere or circle‚ called a deferent. The rotation around the

friend speaks up and says‚ “Great‚ Mercury is about to retrograde again.”? Me either. But it is a subject that has gained my full attention recently. I am by no means an astrology buff‚ but I know that Mercury is one of the planets that receive the most attention‚ at least from the little that I have read. While the different planets‚ stars‚ and space in general has never been one of my top priorities‚ I do love research and decided to look into exactly what Mercury retrograde is and if it plays any significant

The main idea behind the nebular hypothesis is that the planets and the Sun formed when a spinning cloud of interstellar dust and

Mythological aspect of the astronomy are mostly covered on the northern hemisphere‚ which includes the 12 zodiac constellations and some other constellations. The zodiac constellations formed an imaginary circle which the sun‚ moon‚ and seven of the nine planets orbited in the space‚ for example the Taurus which symbolizes the bull which describe zeus‚ and the form he took when he carried off the phoenician maiden‚ Europa. The other constellations are the constellations located out of the imaginary circle

formulated by the Greek philosopher Ptolemy around 140 AD. The sun‚ moon‚ planets and stars all revolved around the earth in circular orbits. Back then‚ everyone “knew” that the earth stood still at the center of the universe. But there were problems with this model. Although the stars move smoothly through the heavens along fixed circular orbits‚ the planets do not. They wander among the other stars (which is where the term “planet” came from; it means “wanderer” in Greek). Their speed varies‚ their

The planets were scattered throughout the galaxy. Then the being that was inside named Atlas came out and headed towards earth since he was near the planets. Atlas then started pulling things out a small bag that he contained around his waist. He pulled out things that looked like little mountains. Atlas then threw the

On the other hand‚ several research programs aim at improving the quality of life and providing the basic necessities of life to needy people have not been implemented due to lack of funds‚ In my opinion money and effort spends on space exploration is a complete a fruitful expenditure for the next generation.

Some people say if we travel around space and find a habitable planet that it will further the arms races which might start a galactic war for the found habitable planet. They think this way by cause of what has happened before with huge moments in history‚ like the atomic bomb starting the hydrogen bomb race with Russia (Obama et al.). Otherwise‚ If we travel space
