Chicxulub Impact report- By Sophia Davis The Chicxulub asteroid hit earth over 65 million years ago‚ killing the vast majority of life.(1) This dramatic event had a great effect on Earth and its inhabitants. The impact included three main stages: the change of pathway which lead the asteroid towards earth‚ the fall of the asteroid and the effects caused. First stage The first stage of the Chicxulub impact was the change in space which lead the asteroid on its path to Earth. In order to get a better

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 Kant figure into shaping our modern-day notions of the origin and composition of the solar system. "Early attempts

Pluto system‚ the Pluto barycenter. The PKB mission is to carry out the first scientific reconnaissance of the Pluto system and accomplish the specified science objectives and goals through a close flyby of Pluto and Charon. The outer space beyond the orbit of Neptune is referred as the Kuiper Belt. It was named after Gerald Kuiper‚ who predicted in 1951‚ as a hypothesis‚ that the shortperiod comets originate from a collection of material left over from the formation of the solar system. Kuiper’s

mass of the planet is much greater than of Earth’s. These different circumstances on Venus‚ are very hard for humans to adapt to coming from Earth. Since the atmospheric pressure is 92 times greater than earth‚ Venus is the hottest planet in our solar system‚ and Venus’ atmosphere is made up of Carbon Dioxide‚ I believe that we won’t be able to colonize on Venus‚ as shown in the setting of “All Summer in a Day” by Ray Bradbury.

with us. Around January 1986 the Space Shuttle Challenger exploded during takeoff in front of the entire world. As a teenager‚ this event was tragic and amazing at the same time because I felt that we were on our way to discovering new planets‚ solar systems‚ and other life forms. This tragic event was the start of my interest in outer space. Fast forward to 2012‚ the science community has greatly advanced our technology since the mid-eighties. Today‚ we have computers in everything‚ all types of space

crashed into a cloud of gas‚ bringing in the ingredients for our solar system. The formation of our sun came first from the collapse of a solar nebula. After about ten to twenty million years after this collapse‚ dust then clustered to grains‚ to lumps‚ to boulders‚ to planetesimas. Soon it became chunks of rock big enough to have their own gravitational field. So‚ some plantesimals became the embryonic form of planets in our solar system today. As more asteroids and other planets collided with planet

This paper would discuss about the hand on experience that was obtained when I toured the Adler Planetarium located in Chicago and witnessed the exhibits and the show about the “Cosmic Collision”‚ which was a breathtaking tour around the space. The tour to the planetarium was really a wonderful experience in adding more value and flavor to the wide range of knowledge gained in the class‚ and it did really help me in grasping the real world experience. The show “Cosmic

is an object about the size of mars knocked into Earth‚ forcing a piece of earth to fall off‚ forming the moon. There are four different theories accepted by scientists. The capture theory explains that the moon was formed somewhere else in the Solar system and passed by earth. When it passed by earth the earths gravity contained the moon‚ forcing it to orbit the earth. The sister or coaccretion theory is if the moon was formed the same time as the earth using the same
