Asteroid Belt:
The Asteroid belt is a disc shaped belt located in between Mars and Jupiter. The Asteroid Belt is mostly empty with scattered asteroids all around. The 4 most giant asteroids in the belt are Ceres, Vesta, Pallas, and Hygiea. These 4 asteroids are over half the mass of the whole belt! The asteroid belt is between 2.2 and 3.2 AU away from the sun.
Guy Fawkes, who also went by Guido, was a Spanish soldier who, along with his accomplices, spent many months planning the Gunpowder plot, a plan to blow King James I of England up with 36 barrels of Gun Powder. Their plans were ruined when Guy was caught Lurking in the cellar under the House of the Lord, where the barrels were located. In celebration of the failed plot, Londoners lit bonfires and fireworks, which became a yearly tradition, even to this day. This Gunpowder Plot was a result in Guy’s dislike to King James I. Guy fought against Protestant rebels, and even petitioned Spain’s King to help rebel King James I. Guy was a strong believer in the fact that King James I would try to drive out his Catholic subjects. He was once known as
“The measure of a man is not how much he suffers in the test, but how he comes out at the end” — Neal Shusterman. Mistreatment, the agony it causes, and its resultant mental instability, most of which are inevitable in literature, can cause tragedy and destruction but also freedom and liberty. It takes a lot of suffering to find healing and get out of toxic mindsets and relationships. Some people never find the life they deserve and end up living a miserable life. Despite William Shakespeare's famous tragic play Macbeth and Sandra Cisneros' award-winning fictional short story “Woman Hollering Creek” both sharing comparable topics of suffering, abuse, and a woman undergoing severe mental turmoil, both tales have stark contrasts in all three.
In my save of the game, it seems to spawn at a distant 20,000 kilometers away from Dres. These asteroids could contain easily accessible precious metals, which can be sent towards Dres with a tiny 20 m/s burn, and a still small 160 m/s is required to circularize. This makes them easier to reach from orbit than even the surface!
As one may know, astronomy is a branch of science used to study objects exterior to the Earth’s atmosphere. There are a wide variety of topics in astronomy that have been studied by astronomers for years, which is interesting to learn about because which individual would not aspire to learn about how the universe originated? Or what objects exists in space? One of the topics that are quite interesting to learn regarding astronomy is the Kuiper Belt.
The Kuiper Belt is a ‘belt-like’ disc in our outer Solar System that extends from the orbit of Neptune at about 30 astronomical units (AU) from the Sun to approximately 50 AU [1]. It is like a larger version of the asteroid belt, and is mostly made up of remnants of the formation of our Solar system [2]. As the Kuiper Belt gets further away from the Sun, it also becomes denser. At its section that should be the densest it instead stops suddenly, and this abrupt ending is known as the Kuiper Cliff. The reason for this dramatic falloff is thus unknown [3], but there is one interesting theory. Patryk Lykawka of Kobe University claims that the gravitational pull of a so far unseen planet may be responsible for the behavior of the Kuiper Belt.
Space. The final frontier. There are approximately one hundred billion galaxies in the universe with many solar systems in each galaxy and many planets within those solar systems (How do we…). The Milky Way Galaxy is close to 100,000 light years in diameter(Diep) with each light year spanning 5.87849981 x 10^12 miles . In comparison, the earth is only 7,917.5 miles in diameter(Coffey). Within and on the earth itself, there are still great mysteries, and so it comes as no surprise that a giant area such as space holds so much mystery. One of the most recent fascinations to astronomers has been asteroids, meteors, meteorites, and comets. These space rocks are found
Have you ever wondered why people or characters change? In scary stories these changes are very noticeable. In the sixth grade, it was Halloween night. As a group me and my friends were walking through a “haunted house,” as we walked through we all saw a small child just standing in the middle of the hallway. When it turned around it was apparent that this was no “child,” it had bloody face and we all ran away.
In July scientists discovered that Juno had made it to Jupiter. The spacecraft was launched from Cape Canaveral in Florida on august 5, five years ago. In those five years, it has traveled 1.8 billion miles to Jupiter. Currently Juno is in orbit around the large planet. It will hopefully collect enough data to help us better understand the planet.
Jupiter is the biggest planet in our solar system, it also the fifth planet that count from the Sun. There are many interesting facts about Jupiter’s atmosphere. Jupiter has the largest planetary atmosphere in the Solar system. The composition of the atmosphere is mainly molecular hydrogen and helium. Although water exists deep in the atmosphere layer, the concentration is comparatively very small. (Mahaffy et al., 1998) Until now, there have been no satellites sent on to the Jupiter. Only eight spacecraft sent to bring back information. The eight spacecraft were Pioneer 10, Pioneer 11, Voyager 1, Voyager 2, Galileo, Ulysses, Cassini, and New Horizons. (Tritonfun, 2008) Among these eight spacecraft, five of them are from NASA. For this mission, an artificial manufactured satellite that functions as an orbiter will be send to the orbit of the Jupiter to study its enormous atmosphere and the weather on the Jupiter.

Asteroids are rocky leftovers with no air made during the formation of our solar system which revolves around the sun. They mostly stay in a ring around the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. The formation of these rocks is called an asteroid belt. This is the main asteroid belt, and contains more than 750,000 asteroids. Asteroids are not considered planets because of how small they are. These rocks don’t weigh very much compared to Earth’s moon. Our moon weighs more than all of the asteroids combined. Asteroids in the main belt were formed around 4.6 billion years ago because the planet Jupiter prevented any planetary bodies from forming in the gap between Mars and itself. This caused objects to collide and form asteroids.
The reading on terrestrial planets from chapter 6 provides readers with a little insight on the similarities and differences between the planets. These planets include Earth, Venus, Mercury, and Mars. Although these planets have very different properties, they are connected due to their history. There are scientific laws that help people understand, compare, and contrast these planets, such as gravity, chemical composition, and temperature.
Romantic Era literature can be, quite frankly, confusing and endlessly nuanced. Edgar Allan Poe's story, The Fall Of The House Of Usher, is no exception to this near- universal Romantic rule. This story was published in 1839 and follows the then-popular (and dreary) Gothic themes, exploring different (and new) ways to incorporate themes of chaos and order into a coherent, tragically dark message. Written from the first-person perspective of the narrator, The Fall Of The House Of Usher explores the interesting condition of the Usher house; more specifically it relates the tale of Roderick Usher and how he buried his sister, Madeline, and how she came back from the grave.
The asteroid belt is located between Mars and Jupiter’s orbit. Asteroid belt also contain meteorites mostly made up of rock and metal. The difference between the Kuiper belt is that if Jupiter’s was not present and without the orbital resonances from the planet, the asteroid belt might have formed to another rocky planet. The Kuiper belt which is located beyond Neptune and Pluto contain Icy rocks or comets. Some icy rocks are slightly smaller than terrestrial planets in our solar system and some are so large than our asteroids in our asteroid belt. The Kuiper belt also consist of dwarf planets such as Pluto, Eris and Sedna while the asteroid belt contains no dwarf planets.
Asteroids are found all over space but are most abundant in the asteroid belt between
