discusses Earth and Mars known as the “Goldilocks Planets‚” this is because Earth and Mars both have the perfect environment for life to be sustained. I was first observed that Mars had evidence that it could sustain life in 1877‚ by the astronomer Giovanni Schiaparelli. Schiaparelli drew a map of mars as an “earthly paradise.” This was because he observed that the planet had what appeared to be continents and water channels on the surface. Although‚ it was discovered that Mars has less water contents

other stars in existence in our universe‚ and most of those stars have satellites‚ and those satellites have satellites. There are literally hundreds of trillions‚ if not more‚ planets or planet-sized satellites orbiting stars. To think that none of these could have life on them is just to be naive. If it happened to our planet‚ out of hundreds of trillions of them out there‚ it can happen to another‚ and another. We can’t be alone; distant‚ maybe‚ but alone is just too far-fetched a theory.

As John goes rampaging through you start seeing the Nova Squadron forming a huge shield using the galactic rift fleet. Now let’s go back to the birthplace of John. John was a science experiment that came from the planet XX 1251. XX 1251 is a planet that is run by Venus fly traps. The only issue is that they were getting too much

Fueling NASA‚ the Key to Unlocking the Universe Could Mars be the next planet humans inhabit? Who will be the first to determine how to get to this red-dirt home‚ the governments of the world or private companies? Robert Gebelhoff‚ in an article for the Washington Post‚ stated that the Space Race is far from over in today’s society‚ and the stakes are just as high as before (Gebelhoff 3). With the idea of leaving Earth looms overhead‚ scientists and engineers are busy at work coming up with theories

that I left planet earth and embarked on one of the most important missions in NASA’s history. I should probably back up though‚ and explain to you how this came about. April 16th was sunny with only a few clouds in the sky‚ the smell of spring was in the air and with the end of second semester right around the corner‚ the quad was packed with people eager to catch some much desired sun rays. Unfortunately for me though I was stuck in astronomy. That day’s topic was our very own planet earth. Dr

The Size of the Solar System Overview • Become familiar with the scale of the planets vs. their distances. • Get an overview of the solar system. Introduction It is easy to flip to the index of an astronomy textbook to discover that‚ say‚ the Sun lies 150 million kilometers away from Earth. It is far more difficult (if not impossible)‚ however‚ to picture this distance in the human mind. In this exercise‚ we will learn to access the often unpalatable distances encountered in astronomy

studying life here on Earth to better understand how it might arise in the universe‚ then scouring the cosmos for any hint of a potentially habitable environment. So what is life? What does life need to survive‚ and if it does exist outside of our home planet‚ where might we find it? All of these questions‚ we will attempt to answer through the research of the most brilliant minds in astronomy and biology. According to Professor Stephen Hawking‚ “[life is] an ordered system that can sustain and reproduce
