The Life Of The Dry Hot Desert

The 19030s Dust Bowl, which consisted of a series of dust storms, destroyed the way of

We live in a universe that is about 46 billion light years old. In a world, as massive as ours there must be some form of extraterrestrial life out in the galaxy. For thousands of years ancient peoples, such as the Greeks, have wondered the same question. Are we alone? As our technology advances, things such as videos and photographs are surfacing of people claiming to see such alien life. Whether it is an unidentified flying object, or if it’s from someone claiming to see an actual alien, there are thousands of people that believe they have seen proof. Some also claim that the government is hiding things behind our backs, like the Roswell UFO incident for example. Though many people refuse to believe in the existence of alien life forms until they see evidence, the fact that multitudes of people have eye-witness accounts, the improbability that we are alone, and the idea that we have thought of aliens so long, bring forth the evidence that proves something is out there.

The Dust Bowl drought was the worst in U.S. history that was around 1930. It was in the mid west where it covered sixty percent of the country. Millions of people had to move to other parts because it lasted four years. It was "at its peak in 1934" according to "National Climate Data Center". We already have a lot of drought in California and west although one might say it is all of the U.S. With little rain and high tempatures in the summers drys out the vegatation which become a hazard for fires. Global warming might have some to do with the problem of drought. High populations need more water, with more water being used, depletes resources of water supplies which causes drought also. People need to become more aware of the use of the use of water, a lot of people take it for granite that there is plenty out there for all of us to share. In fact, if we don't start to conserve, we might not have water like we do in the future.

Between 1930 and 1940, the southwestern Great Plains region of the United States suffered a severe drought. Once was great farm land for many settlers in the great plains became a desolate wasteland, which became known as the Dust Bowl. To make matters even worse the government passed the “Homestead Act” which helped move farmers and settlers into the central part of the U.S once the Native Americans were removed. Most of the settlers farmed their land or grazed cattle during the time which resulted in the loss of crops and loss of livestock because the horde conditions. Another result of the Dust Bowl was farms farming dry land on the Great Plains which led to the systematic destruction of the prairie grasses in the ranching regions, overgrazing

As lack of water and a particularly dry climate out competes shrubs, trees, and grasslands across Colorado, erosion rates increase reducing the infiltration of moisture into the soil. Causation is believed to have come from heavy livestock grazing, fire suppression, and the introduction of exotic annual plants. Habitat problems for animals and communities that rely on ranching and hunting have been directly affected by these desertification effects. Desertification has had large ecological impacts on the state of Colorado. Vegetation and ecosystems are among the most crucially impacted by the effects of desertification. While Colorado continues its dry drought like climate, restoration of soil becomes one of the major solutions to fight off desertification. Because of the overuse of our land in past generations, we are continuing to see the harmful effects due to desertification. The overall impact on humans produced by desertification is best noticed by a diminishing food production as well as a wealth of water sources becoming dry. People in affected areas are likely to experience poor water quality, dust storms, and pollution. More importantly, as soil loses its nutrients, it no longer becomes farmable; thus, impacting local businesses, livestock, and the many people in that community. If desertification continues in Colorado, an increase of lost farmlands and livestock will pose an economic decease within agriculture markets, farmers will be forced to move to find better

Is California becoming a desert? Is it using too much? For the past few years California has been in a severe drought which has gotten the people to become desperate and use groundwater to supply themselves. The Farmers of the state are drilling deeper and deeper to obtain more water since California doesn’t have any laws from stopping them. The citizens want the state government to establish laws to stop the farmers from taking anymore water.

The Mohave Desert spreads across Nevada, Utah, Arizona, and some parts of the State of California; and its climate reflects extremes of hot and cold. At winter temperatures are cold, as low as 8 degree Fahrenheit, while the summer reaches about 120 degree Fahrenheit, winds are present year round and blow at about 25 MPH regularly and there are gusts of 75MPH. There is no time were the extreme weather is sustainable.

As I write this, the first radio transmissions, broadcast in 1901, are reaching the edge of the Milky Way, 115 light-years from earth. The Queen's Messenger, a one-act play that aired on September 11, 1928 on General Electric's experimental television station in Schenectady, New York, is just arriving at a distance of 78 light years. Comparatively, Benford E. Standley’s 1995 Webcast from the Troubadour in Hollywood, CA, one of the first online live video streams, has traveled a mere twenty-one light years. Given that one light-year is equal to 9,500,000,000,000 kilometers, one can begin to imagine the immense backlog of car commercials, music videos, FaceTime calls, baby monitor feeds and Skype sessions that litter the cosmos, and the perplexity of Steryl’s future alien

The deserts of Arid-Taklamakan often considered by most as the "Kingdom of sand and danger", considering the hostile creatures living in the environment and extreme heat keeps people near the coastal city of Arid-Kasshrin to battle the extreme heat. Unfortunately for those who live in the deserts often faced the harshness of Taklamakan, demons who dwell within the desert itself, settlements were established for those who can survive it's trials.

Abstract: Scientists claim that other life forms do in fact exist based on probability. The conditions necessary for life are likely to be present on various other planets. Signs of possible life have been found in material from outer space. Much research has been dedicated to proving the existence of life on Mars. SETI is a program entirely dedicated to finding and establishing communication with extra terrestrials. If other life forms are found, communication with these beings will be a difficult task. Laws to protect humans from the dangers of extraterrestrial beings are already in effect. Although contact with alien beings has not yet been made, technology today may make it a reality in the near future.

global stability from the Cold War to the war on terror and cannot bear the loss of Western Sahara.” Zunes highlighted Moroccan’s ability to market its alleged threats from socialism to political Islam to appeal to the US and French foreign policy and consolidate support.

Should we as humans expect to find intelligent life elsewhere in the Universe? There are many reasons for and against this concept, but first we should trace just how our terrestrial life started.

The biggest question we all ask ourselves at one point in time or another is, are we really alone in the universe? Many believe that all known encounters and evidence is either false, a hoax, or an attempt at fame and glory. True believers stick to the physical evidence and hard facts that follow these mysterious encounters. One specific event that occurred at Roswell, New Mexico in 1947 has baffled theorists and experts for generations and will continue to leave a controversial standpoint on what really may have occurred. This occurrence in particular has left a lot of unanswered questions about extraterrestrial existence due to the fact that most of the evidence collected from the incident is to either to old to be a credible source or the government has covered up the evidence and left a false influence behind. Overall, how has outside influence altered personal encounters and experience with extraterrestrial contact with relation to the Roswell Incident?

Many people who live on Earth are close minded to what is really out there in the universe. They cannot even begin to fathom the vastness of it and how Earth is just a tiny little speck compared to everything else out there. From the planets to the stars and out towards the edge of the unknown, we can only see what science provides us with. From this, we know that we are nothing but a tiny planet located in a solar system of millions in a galaxy of many more in the universe.
