Ideas about the solar system Our understanding of the solar system has changed over many centuries. Scientists such as Ptolemy‚ Copernicus and Galileo added their ideas to our changing understanding. We observe the universe using a variety of equipment‚ from telescopes to orbiters and landers. Models of the solar system The planets and the Sun orbit the Earth in Ptolemy’s model. Our understanding of the universe has changed over time. Different civilisations have created different models to

These lenses allow for full ultraviolet radiation protection. Experts say the risk for cataracts and other age-related eye problems is associated with a person’s lifetime exposure to the sun’s UV rays. Folding Sunglasses In 2012 folding sunglasses were re-released by Ray-Ban. This feature allows a smaller storage space when not in use. The folding Aviator

X-radiation (which is composed of X-rays‚ hence the name) falls under electromagnetic radiation. X-rays and gamma rays are sometimes confused‚ but they are different‚ as X-rays are emitted by electrons outside the nucleus whilst gamma rays are produced inside the nucleus. X-rays have extremely small wavelengths (10-0.1 nanometers) and so long exposure to them can cause humans harm‚ but one X-ray here or there is not bad‚ and
