Daylight-saving time (DST) has been a controversial issue ever since it has first been observed. I believe DST is a useful and effective idea‚ and I would recommend continued use of it. In fact‚ I believe it should be observed year-round‚ which means America’s standard time would be moved back one hour. Many people make arguments that DST saves energy‚ and there are studies to support it. (Sources B & C) But an equal amount of people make the argument that it doesn’t save energy at all‚ and

Towards the very end of our solar system is a dwarf planet named Pluto. The existence of the unknown planet was first proposed by astronomer Percival Lowell in 1905‚ who thought that the wobbles in the orbit of Neptune and Uranus were probably caused by the gravitational pull of an unknown planet. After calculating the approximate location‚ he looked for more than a decade without any success. About 25 years later‚ it was discovered by an American astronomer named Clyde Tombaugh. The surface temperature

As we know that our solar system has a total of eight planets‚ after they decided Pluto wasn’t a planet it was then know to be a dwarf planet. What if there are other planets in our solar system? With advanced technology they did it‚ they found another planet that’s in our solar system‚ but it’s not proven yet. The high tech computers detect a planet but it has still not been seen by the human eye. So what this means is the the planet isn’t officially a planet until it has been seen by a human for

foreseeable future‚ this planet is the only home we’ve got. It would be useful to know‚ then‚ whether it will continue to be habitable. Sometimes contemplating the future just means wondering whether it will snow tomorrow‚ or whether it will be a hot summer this year. We can think bigger‚ though. What will the climate be like a hundred years from now‚ or a thousand or a million? Will the greenhouse gases in our atmosphere ever reach an upper limit and start to diminish? Will our planet ultimately end up

Life on Other Planets Life on other planets‚ Is there another titan planet out there that harbors life? Scientist have found two such planets in a neighboring but distant Solar System. Which planets are habitable and is there already life there or basically in general‚ “Is there life in outer space?” That is the question and debate among astrologists and scientist alike about this discovery of two planets that orbit the red dwarf star of Gliese 581 (Gliese 581c.eu). The fascination of intelligent

Til this day there has not been any proof of such living things on any of the other planets. I do know there is a continuous search for the answer if there is life on other planets. I do know it’s possible considering how enormous the Universe is. There is a high possibility of life existing outside our planet. There have

Since 2005‚ we have found more and more ‘super-Earths’‚ which is a term used for an extrasolar planet that has a mass higher than planet Earth’s but below the mass of the solar systems’ gas giants. In some cases‚ these super-Earths contain water as well as potential living support. In 2011‚ fifty new planets were found. Sixteen of them are
