Charlie notices the crater compound. Zaarl detects Charlie and sends out SHADOW FORMS to intercept him. They send Charlie’s craft away from the moon. Charlie’s body shrivels and begins to pixelate. He passes through the Eagle Nebula and wakes up on the Planet of the Others (POTO)‚ where he meets the alien residents and their warriors. They tell Charlie that Zaarl is an alien who plans to destroy Earth by moving the moon from its current orbital path using the Nurodeon. They need Charlie’s help in stopping

When Johannes Kepler was born in the late sixteenth century‚ scientists believed that planets in the solar system traveled in circular orbits around the Earth. The occasional problem was solved by the addition of miniature circles test — epicycles — to planetary paths. But Kepler not only adamantly defended the idea that planets orbit the sun‚ he also revealed that their paths were not perfect circles. His descriptions of planetary motions became known as Kepler’s laws. Born in December of 1571‚

Introduction In order to conduct an in-depth study of Mars’ strata‚ an international coalition should establish a base in the Valles Marineris. Designing a base for on Mars will require careful thought and decisions. Location One of the best places to establish a base on Mars is in the Valles Marineris‚ at approximately 13.9˚S‚ 59.2˚W. The Valles Marineris offers many positive environmental conditions for a base. Located just south of Mars’ equator‚ the Valles Marineris is a system of canyons

The Earth as a Planet It is important to look at the Earth in its context as only one of the nine planets which make up the solar system. This is an introduction to the Solar System‚ its formation‚ and composition‚ with special emphasis on the "terrestrial" or "inner" planets. I take a kind of historical approach‚ noting the patterns and regularities observed‚ for example‚ by Tycho Brahe‚ described by Johannes Kepler‚ and explained by Sir Isaac Newton. Laplace and even the philosopher Immanuel

The Solar System contains one star‚ the Sun‚ eight planets‚ and an asteroid belt; the eight planets‚ Mercury‚ Venus‚ Earth‚ Mars‚ Jupiter‚ Saturn‚ Uranus‚ and Neptune‚ in order from the Sun. Uranus and Neptune are the furthest from the Sun‚ which gives these two planets many similarities‚ but also many differences too. Being two separate entities in space the

To account for the more subtle motions‚ Ptolemy believed that each planet also moved on a smaller sphere - an epicycle. ------------------------------------------------- Two commonly made observations supported the idea that Earth was the center of the Universe. The first observation was that the stars‚ the sun‚ and planets appear to revolve around Earth each day‚ making Earth the center
