Airwrecka Ship Failure

Shipwreck at the Bottom of the Worldvividly recreates one of the most extraordinary adventure stories in history. In August 1914, Ernest Shackleton and 27 men sailed from England in an attempt to become the first team of explorers to cross the Antarctic continent from one side to the other. Five months later and still 100 miles from land, their ship,Endurance, became trapped. The expedition survived an Antarctic winter in the icebound ship, then, afterEndurancesank, five months camped on the ice followed by a perilous boat journey through storms and icebergs to remote and unvisited Elephnat Island, 600 miles from Cape Horn. From there, their only hope was for someone to fetch help. In a dramatic climax to this amazing survival story, Shackleton

​“The war to end all wars” was what people called it. Others called it “The Great War”. Many people died in this war. And there was really no right or wrong in this war; meaning that I don’t think there really was a side that was wrong or right, and I’m going to explain why further in this essay. I think both sides were wrong in things, but in the end, Germany was the one that suffered the most because they were being forced to pay billions dollars in the war debts, and let the French control a rich mine for well over 15 years. But before that Germany and the Britain’s were at war with each other. And Germany sent out a warning to everyone saying that every ship crossing the war zone line (which was the

Amelia Earhart was an experienced pilot. she was the first female pilot to fly across the atlantic ocean. That by itself is a very long flight for back then, but she wanted to step it up by flying across the whole world. (Crouch)

When the crew and captain first met Charlotte they would’ve never thought Charlotte would have the strength or courage to climb to the highest mast, but she wanted people to perceive her differently. This changed her life because at the end she left home and went back to the ship to become part of the

Mae Carol Jemison was her name she was known for her being the very first African American women to ever aboard the spaceship Endeavour. She is the greatest African American Because when she was a little girl she looked up to her “DREAM” of becoming a real astronaut when she became older. Soon enough her dreams of becoming an astronaut happened…. Her family took to astronaut training where Mae would become the first African American Astronaut, when she went on her first mission with six

Amelia Earhart was an icon. She was a feminist. Not only a pioneer but also brave. During Amelia’s life, all the goals she had achieved were attained through pure perseverance and resilience. While Earhart had become well-known for being the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean, she was likewise known throughout the world for her individual developments and aid in the feminist movement. She acknowledged a grander purpose in life which was the desire to live a life that surpassed beyond home and being confined in society. Her achievements in becoming an active feminist and succeeding in her dreams and goals prove her resilient courageous nature of being a woman during the 20th century despite being in a male dominant society.

Shackleton, the star of the novel ‘Shipwreck at the Bottom of the World’ was a very good leader, but what were three characteristics he could use for different occasions? He did show many different characteristics, but the best three I chose are Dauntless as well as Allegiance and don’t forget about Lively. Showing characteristics are always fun, but when you show good characteristics it’s even better. Shackleton is a prime example of showing good characteristics. “They could not linger in their cave all winter, dining on seal meat and toasting their feet at a driftwood fire. The men on Elephant Island were still counting on them.” The significance of this quote is so important because it shows that Shackleton does have loyalty to these guys. This man would not stop talking about his adventures in the south and kept on going back. This is an important topic to talk about because it may show others to be more like him and bring the good from inside them out just like Shackleton and his Dauntless, Allegiance, and Lively characteristics.

Amelia Earhart is a major figure in American history. She broke many of the gender barriers that existed during the early 20th century, becoming the 16th woman to be issued a pilot's license, the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic, the first woman to be awarded the National Geographic Society’s gold medal, the Distinguished Flying Cross, and the first woman to fly nonstop from coast to coast.

All across America people know the name of Sacagawea, the Indian interpreter for the Lewis and Clark expedition. Sacagawea was known for being the only woman on the expedition, but many people may not know all the reasons as to how she survived being the only woman. She became strong through all of the events that happened to her. Sacagawea, the only woman on the Lewis and Clark expedition, survived because of events that happened to her at a young age and because of her good interpreting skills.

There aren’t a lot of women here to chose from, the colony consists of mostly young men. In the beginning the colony was failing because there weren’t enough skilled laborers, people didn’t know how to farm, there was no medical

“There is a fascination with the idea that one has 'seen someone else do something' before one can achieve it. Maybe that's true in some cases, but clearly it is not a requirement. I knew what I wanted to do.”-Mae C. Jemison. When the space shuttle Endeavour blasted off on it’s second mission on September 12, 1992, it carried the first African-American women into space. Mae C. Jemison was not only an astronaut, she’s also a physician, a Peace Corps volunteer, a teacher, and a founder and president of two technology companies.

Mae C. Jemison was the first African-American female to go into outer space. Ever since she was a little girl she wanted to be an astronaut and on September 12, 1992, her dream came true. After being in the astronaut training program for over a year, she earned the title of science mission specialist. She was the person that conducted scientific experiments on the shuttle she was on, the Endeavour. She had six other astronauts with her on the shuttle on mission STS47 and conducted experiments on motion sickness and weightlessness on them and herself. She spent eight days in space and returned home on September 20, 1992.

A nuclear war has been declared and the civil defense committee has been appointed by the president to make decisions on fall-out shelter occupancy. Based on computer calculations the shelter can guarantee survival of only six people. The committee must decide which six are to be included from a list of twelve to go on and rebuild a new society. The twelve individuals they have to choose from are the following: A 36-year-old female physician, known to be a racist; Army drill instructor; African-American militant, biological researcher; Biochemist; Olympic athlete, all sports; movie star; third-year medical student, homosexual; 16-year-old pregnant female; 30-year-old Catholic priest; 38-year-old male, “Mr. Fix-It,” served seven

There’s Zoe (Gina Torres) the captain best mate, second in command; she was previously a solider for the losing side alongside the captain in the flashbacks. Zoe, married to the ship’s captain is a gun totting beauty who can hold her own in negotiations and bar brawls. And there’s Kaylee (Jewel Straite) the ship’s resourceful mechanic has a bubbly and infectious personality and this comes in handy when the ship pulls into ports and takes on passengers for extra credits. It is suggested that she is not professionally trained but gifted in the sense that just picked it up along the
