Delphos Research Paper

I have chosen Delphinus as my constellation because it is Latin for "dolphin". It has no bright stars, the brightest star is a magnitude of 3.8, which isn't bright. Every star in this constellation has planets. The stars that make up "Job's Coffin"(long box shape) is Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and Delta Delphini. The Alpha and Beta Delphini are named after the Palermo Observatory's director. Sualocin and Rotanev are the backwards names of the director, reading Nicolaus Venator. Delphinus is in a bountiful Milky Way star field.

The transportation industry has continued to grow from the first production of the car in the 1990s by Karl Benz. Since this time there have been an outstanding number of model cars, airplanes, buses, motorcycles and scooters, and many other transportation vehicles that uses the standard type of fuel, gasoline. Society as a whole has yet to realize the harmful effects gas powered vehicles have on our ecosystem. Unfortunately, due to lack of this information, the overwhelming price difference between the types of transportation, and convenience, this ever-growing problem my never change until it's too late.

The second largest source of greenhouse gas emissions in the United States is related to transportation, the burning of oil to produce energy in a combustion motor. The combustion process inside of engines is what produces the carbon matter that is emitted into the air through the exhaust system on gas-powered vehicles. Gas-powered transportation is accountable for 24 percent of the global carbon emissions; this should not come as much of a surprise given the amount of urban sprawl that is being seen in the United States and across the globe. In the past decade, the Environmental Protection Agency, the United States government, and major car manufacturers have been working in conjunction to find ways to provide a “greener” form of transportation (EPA, 2011). This has included testing the use of hydropower, ethanol, natural gas, biodiesel, and electricity as a means of powering vehicles, which has led to the introduction of hybrid vehicles. Hybrid vehicles run on electricity and gasoline, the byproduct of oil that is generally used in the engine combustion process of vehicles (U.S. Department of

Further investigation includes research into what alternative economical vehicles are available from vehicle manufacturers and to source more statistics relating to carbon emissions and ocean

John Barth, and acclaimed writer said, “Everyone is necessarily the hero of his own life story” (Hero/Heroism). To me that means everyone is a hero in one way or another. Volunteering is an example of being a hero. You could be helping disabled people by volunteering at Camp Courageous. Deloras Propst volunteers at the Camp Courageous Garage Sale here in Manchester Iowa. The garage sale raised $115,000 last year for the camp (Propst). This is one reason I count Deloras Propst as a hero.

I am a hybrid. African American and Latina. I am a mix of my grandmothers. Deloris is an African American woman who raised her children with southern pride in North Carolina. She happily spoiled them with fried chicken gizzards, hush puppies, collard greens and tough love. Elizabeth is a Venezuelan woman who fell in love with a Puerto Rican musician named Eusebio. She spoiled all of her children with love, arepas, tostones, arroz con leche and teddy bears. I have never met Deloris, but I have seen pictures. She lives through the many sayings that she preached to my mother, and ultimately what my mother preaches to me. Elizabeth adored oversized earrings, rings, and stuffed animals. On the day of her death I was left Goldie, Blue and a

Transportation in the future will allow for faster and safer ways of travelling. Currently, there are many airplanes, bullet trains, and cars that have advanced technologies included, but higher quality technology will soon be added. Tesla recently introduced a car with autopilot system that can drive on its own, change lanes, and adapt to the different speed limits (Tesla Autopilot). According to Business Insider, ”approximately ten million self-driving cars will be on the road by the year 2020” (Self-Driving Cars). This new technology of self-driving cars will help make the roads safer for people, and will make people's lives easier on a daily basis. A new transportation method of hyperloop, where a vacuum sucks a train in a tube for accelerated travel, is presently being created (Future Transportation Looks Like). This new method of transportation will not be able to crash into other trains, and it will be solar powered to save on fuel (Future Transportation). When the hyperloop transportation system is completed, it will be a more time-efficient way of traveling. A new airplane model called the Skreemr is under proposal, and it is said that it can carry up to seventy five passengers from New York to London in just under thirty minutes (Supersonic Airliners). The only problem with this new plane will be the cost to operate and build. Since the plane will

Climate change and transportation play a big role and it is important to be concerned for our future generations. The use of gasoline cars is a major producer in carbon dioxide emissions, although they are not entirely responsible for it—they play a role in it. Other form of transportations like buses and taxis also contribute to carbon dioxide emissions. The total amount of carbon dioxide emissions from an average car is seventy six percent which comes from usage of a vehicle containing gasoline. Efficiency has increased by twenty percent in regards to electric motors, especially when it comes to their wheels using no power when the car is at rest. Car ownership will increase and with this, improvements in technology could be a vital

Frederick Delius was a post-Romantic English composer. Born on January 29, 1862, Delius was the black sheep of his mercantile family, resisting the pressure to join the family business in pursuit of becoming a composer. Delius lived until June 10, 1934, when he died in Grez, France. Delius’ early compositions displayed an influence from the styles in America at the time, and inspiration from European composers such as Richard Wagner. As Delius matured, he developed his own unique style that is characterized by the use of chromatic harmony.

The traveling tube, the hyperloop, isn't likely to become a reality. The article sugar coats unreasonable things. They use unreasonable time to get from one place to another. (paragraph 8) "You could go from downtown L.A. to downtown San Francisco in under 30 minutes" "It would cost you much less than an air ticket and less than any other mode of transport." How can a hyperloop be cheap if it travels above ground and underwater? If it's the "fastest way of transportation" It would not be cheap, it would be a reasonable price. It's unreasonable for a hyperloop to travel underwater. As you can see, the article isn't very accurate and sugar coats things that aren't reasonable.

The surveys found that the awareness of the project increased from 38% to 47% from 1998 to 1999. Even though there will be tax increase, the majorities were in favor of the project: 64% supported it with a ¼-cent sales tax increase, and 62% supported it with a ½-cent sales tax increase. Sixty-nine percent of the respondents thought that the route between Los Angeles and San Francisco would be the most valuable one, especially when the high-speed rail was connected to other forms of urban transportation. Even though these respondents said that they were willing to pay for the project, they would like the private sector to share 20% to 71% of the margin capital costs. And they were in favor of the project because: it would reduce air pollution (84%), it would reduce the existing traffic congestion in highways, freeways and roads (82%), it would benefit the next generation of Californians (78%), and it would be cheaper than other alternatives (74%).

As spectators we are normally passive onlookers of the action taking place. The only influence we can have over the outcome is by making the participants aware of our support by cheering, or of our anger and frustration at an action by chanting and booing. We place our trust in the officials and referees to ensure that strict guidelines and rules are adhered to throughout the action. As spectators we are also commentators expressing our opinions regarding the actions of the participants and the officials. As spectators we can empathise with the emotions of the participants and feel extreme jubilation or extreme disappointment depending on whether you are supporting the winning or losing side. In this essay I will be discussing whether the

This paper premise is the economic development impacts of transportation in general, as examined by Kumares, Sinha & Labi (2007). Multiple studies have revealed that investments in public transportation ultimately drives productivity and economic growth (Kumares, Sinha & Labi, 2007). This paper however will move away from highways and most common types of transit systems to focus on high speed rail and its potential economic development impacts in the United States. By examining additional resources such as World Bank analysis, papers from the MIT library, and reports

Continuing “business as usual” will lead to huge increase in the amount of CO2 by the end of the century which its effects are not fully recognised but some of the obvious consequences include implications for agriculture, rise in sea level, changes in the system of world’s weather, etc. [5]. Transportation system not only has a great effect on the sustainability of the planet but also it must be sustainable itself to be affordable for all people in terms of economic and social opportunities for a
