Henri Oung Date due: April 28th, 2009 Knowledge and Conspiracy Theories Date submitted: April 28th, 2009 Term paper: Moon-landing Word count: 1110 We always strive to achieve something. That achievement might be a dream or something even bigger. One of the dreams that Americans have is to actually get off the planet earth and see the outer universe. But one of the first things they wanted to accomplish is to actually land on the moon. It was first succeeded by the soviets in 1966, but the Americans did try to land a few years before that, but failed.
This new object had its own moon and is actually bigger than Pluto. This new discovery by Brown was give the name UB313 and since its discovery along with the continued exploration of the Kupier Belt, turned up other objects named Quaoar, in 2002 and Sedna in 2004. Based on the understanding that Pluto is a planet than it stands to reason that anything larger than it is a planet as well. This opened the door to astronomers to be able to add additional planets to our solar system, instead of classifying them as dwarf planets or asteroids. In
I did the scientific experiment where I look through the paper towel cylinder and gathered the size of the moon. The moon’s circumference came out to be the same again at 6.83 centimeters. I repeated the same step of measuring the moon with my ruler which provided its circumference. There was a small difference but, this was suspected due to the reality of human error. The circumference came out to be 7.66 which was too extremely off of my previous findings.
A spacecraft, named Horizon, launched in 2006, and it will hopefully reach Pluto in 2015. Pluto has a huge rock, like the moon,
The Man on the Moon In 1969 Neil Armstrong became the first man to ever walk on the moon. As he took his first steps he said, “Thats one small step for man but one giant step for man kind.” Neil Armstrong was right when he said that. This event not only brought the people of the United States together, but people throughout the whole world. They all had one goal in mind, future achievements. The purpose of the first text, Man Takes First Steps on the Moon, is to inform the audience about the importance of Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin landing on the moon and discovering greater things than what you can ind on earth.
They had the first satellite, the first manmade object to orbit the sun, the first manmade object to impact the moon, the first man and women in space, they had the first ever space walk, the first manmade object to impact venus, and the first satellite to orbit the moon. However somehow we caught up and were first to put man on the moon on June 20th 1969. With Apollo 11 landing and Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walking on the moon we felt a bit more secure about the cold war now that we were in charge of space. This actually came in handy later when we said that we could destroy all Soviet missiles with a program named SDI or star
Said O'Keefe: If tektites are terrestrial, it means that some process exists by which soil or common rocks can be converted in an instant into homogeneous, water-free, bubble-free glass and be propelled thousands of miles above the atmosphere. If tektites come from the Moon, it seems to follow that there is at least one
An astronomer who wants to send a rocket into space uses calculus to work out how much fuel the rocket needs to accelerate to the correct velocity. These are just some examples of the ways in which calculus and astronomy work together. How to Bring Your Rocket Up to Speed Space travel is extremely important to astronomy. Space-based telescopes and probes, which collect huge amounts of information about the Solar System and beyond, are launched into space using powerful rockets. The rockets accelerate the spacecraft until it is going fast enough to leave the Earth's gravitational pull and set off on its journey.
Jesus Garcia Aug. 18, 2014 Things We Need To Live On Mars Mars is known as being the red planet in our solar system and for being the fourth planet from the sun. In occasion we ask ourselves what would we need to live on Mars if by any reason Earth is no longer able to sustain us. Well our main concern would be our oxygen; we either need to build a facility with oxygen or figure out another invention in order to be able to breathe on Mars. We not only need a building to help us breathe, but also to be able to keep warm because Mars is known for its cold temperature. We would imagine it would be hot on the “red” planets but the farther you go from the sun the colder each planet gets.
