Mysteries of the Sun and Our Solar System

This launch will be designated to fly into the Sun's atmosphere for the first time ever in history. The goal of this mission is to understand how the corona of the Sun is heated and how solar wind is used through the Sun. This mission will help lead us to discover how the Sun gain it's heat and how we could possibly protect our heat on Earth. There has been a great formation of probe missions over the years. The range of technology that has advanced is astonishing to believe that in a couple of years we will have readable equipment to enter into the Sun.

Gravity: Gravity is a force of nature that keeps things on Earth instead of floating out of the atmosphere.

The Griffith Observatory is one of Los Angeles’ most popular historical landmarks. This astronomical landmark features public telescopes, planetarium presentations, direct science and space exhibits, and spectacular scenery. According to LaParks.org “Griffith Observatory’s unique architecture, setting, programs, and cinematic exposure have made it the most-visited public observatory in the world. Built in 1935 and sitting 1,134 feet above sea level, the Observatory is visible from much of Los Angeles.” This observatory serves people from all over the world and allows visitors to have a better outlook on the universe and simply allows them to step into the domain of the cosmos. Inside the observatory, individuals can gaze at the projected tour

The telescope is an optical instrument designed to make distant objects appear nearer. It contains an arrangement of lenses or mirrors or both that gathers visible light, permitting direct observation or photographic recording of distant objects. (Lacki, B. C. 2011). With the use of telescopes we have been able to learn a lot more about the planets in our universe. It has helped us understand about some of the history of everything around us. Also it has been able to track asteroids and comets or any randomly flying objet in outer space that might become threatening to our planet.

The solar system was created 4.6 billion years ago by a gravitational collapse. A solar system is a star that has planets, moons, asteroids, comets, and meteoroids travel around it. The solar system contains eight known planets which are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune. There is around several hundred dwarf plants but only five are currently recognized. The solar system has about 181 moons which orbit around the planets in the solar system. There is also about 150 million asteroids and 3,406 comets also in the solar system.

In 2012 a solar storm nearly hit us and if it had hit us we probably wouldn’t be here. However, it completely missed us. Therefore, it is very important for us to understand the sun because it can put our society to its knees and cripple us for a very long

Meridian has been manufacturing fine telescopes for 80 years and has developed a well-earned reputation for quality craftsmanship. The company itself produces and sells two distinct lines of telescopes, which are produced in its 200,000 square feet facility. Furthermore, both lines have been developed to appeal to distinct target audiences who have an interest in the company’s products. The older line, for which there has been steady demand, consists of small professional telescopes that ultimately have laid the foundation for Meridian’s strong reputation. Following the success of

Luna in Latin, the moon is the second brightest celestial object that can be seen from earth other than the sun. Even though it seems very bright, it is actually very dark and shows a reflection

however, many crafts like the Hubble, were put in by the space shuttle. The space

The light that the Sun provides, also helps to light up different objects in the night sky, even if their billions of miles away.

Our new understanding of the solar system and the technology we’ve developed through conducting missions has benefitted our society by helping us understand things about other planets, space, and most importantly help us understand more things about our home, planet Earth.

As proposed in an article posted on amazing space.org, “The telescope, a basic reflector with a 94.5 in (2.4 meters) mirror.” While also having being a second mirror that the light bounces to to. Within that mirror, many instruments were compacted together that allowed for clear and visible views in infrared and ultraviolet light. It was different compared to any other ground based telescope whereas it allowed astronomers to observe and witness details that had never been seen before due to Earth being in the way for those other telescopes. The telescope revolves around the earth completely every ninety-seven minutes at the speed of five miles per second, allowing for many observations in space. The observations occur when light hits the main mirror and then bounces towards the second mirror in which the second one focuses the light. The telescope began to be created in 1977 and was originally supposed to launch during the year of 1985. Unfortunately an accident had occurred when a space shuttle challenger exploded and flights into space took a halt. It was finally launched on April 4th of 1990 once the halt had stopped. The improved observations had begun and the history of astronomy had changed. Unfortunately there were some minor setbacks that had to be dealt with. One setback was that the primary mirror was ground incorrectly in which the curve of it was too flat. It was off just

Humans live on a small planet in a tiny part of a vast universe. This part of the universe is called the solar system, and is dominated by a single brilliant star-the sun. The solar system is the earth’s neighbourhood and the planets Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto are the Earth’s neighbours. They all have the same stars in the sky and orbit the same sun.

The OTE is the eye of the observatory and gathers light coming from space and provides it to the science instruments located in the ISIM (The Primary Mirror, 2015). The backplane of the telescope is like a person’s spine, it supports the mirrors. It relates to the JWST because it is a part of the telescope. It helps takes pictures with red lights and long distances. The solar panels will help take pictures of galaxies, stars, newborn stars, and maybe even new planets.

Space can be excellent. The planets, stars, systems and nebulae make effortless and vivid shapes noticeable to our telescopes.
