Wave are nothing to the universe, but to us it is a monster. We have no way to escape. Our home will be destroyed just by one wave in a few second. Our family, significant one, friends, and all our joy will be buried under dirt and bricks. Things that we own will be gone, and dreams will be out of reach. Nobody will forget the year 2004; The scenery Indian Ocean Bay has become a hell to those who come for the tours, they no longer have the opportunity to return to their family. That day the earth was angry that she rolled up the waves with the amazing power to erode the Sumatra coast. Hundred thousands of unprepared lives instantly disappear. Heaven suddenly became a hell. The bodies of the victims are everywhere. Brave people are looking…show more content… Tsunami can be divided into three categories: earthquake tsunami, volcanic tsunami, landslide tsunami. Earthquake and tsunami is the seabed earthquake, the rapid changes in the seabed terrain caused by strong sea water disturbance. Natural disasters are interrelated; often a disaster can induce another disaster. For example, volcanoes and earthquakes can induce tsunamis
The volcano is a common form of landform. Under the crust 100 to 150 kilometers, there is a "liquid area" with high temperature and high pressure gas containing volatile components of the molten silicate material, magma. Once magma rushed out of the surface from the weak crust it becomes lava, then a volcano form. Volcanoes are divided into "active volcanoes", "dead volcanoes" and "dormant volcanoes". “Active volcano” is erupting or is expected to erupted once again. “Dormant volcanoes”, even live but not now erupted, and volcanoes that may be erupted in the future can also be called active volcanoes. “Dead volcano” is last eruptions that have been long ago and proved to be erupting volcanoes in the foreseeable future, known as extinguished volcanoes or dead volcanoes. Volcanic eruption is a bad thing, supposedly people should stay away from the volcano that may be the outbreak. However, things are very strange, often the distance from the volcano, the population is denser. Volcanic ash is very fertile and conducive to the development of agricultural production,
"Hold on Jack, we're being sucked down by the planet's gravitational pull." "Give it more power, Jess." “I already have it at full power, there isn't any more to give.” “I'm gonna engage the FTL, maybe that'll break us free!”
"That might tear us apart if you engage the FTL." "I don't think we have a choice, Jack!" If we do nothing we might not make it out of here.
Why don't we turn it towards the planet and try to land instead. I already sent out the distress message and activated the beacon
Earth is uninhabitable because of rising oceans, worldwide storms, in addition to nuclear warfare. We have narrowed down our options to other planets that are suitable for humans to live in. A team of experts has come to the conclusion that human civilization needs to go back to its roots of early cities. They are afraid that our economy has gone astray and we need to connect back to basic human origins. A group of five thousand is sent down to inhabit this new planet and see if humankind can survive
An Expanding World Population & a Degrading Earth
The world is currently home to around 7 billion people, but only a century ago there were only about 1.6 billion people living on it. It is estimated that the world population will soar to approximately 9 or 10 billion within the next forty years (Lambert 6). Along with the increasing global population, climate change and water scarcity are also burdening the survival of our planet (Lambert 5). The FAO has warned that agriculture must produce 70%
Heidegger contrast the earth and the world by the differences in perspective with the given examples of criticizing artwork. We view art differently by our experiences. Artists create an artwork with certain feeling in mind, but to the viewer, the artwork may be just a thing. The specific artworks Heidegger used in the book are the painting of several shoes by Van Gogh. For everyone that knows what the shoes are like to them is just a thing or equipment they use. However to Gogh’s purpose was to
hydrogen escaped into space or were bound to molecules, leaving gases like nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and other gases that were the product of volcanism to make up the majority of the atmosphere. This volcanic activity was fueled by gases that came to Earth following the “late heavy bombardment of huge asteroids”. Following
War of the Worlds is a grim view into H.G. Wells idea of a Martian invasion of Earth. Wells begins the story as a cylinder crash lands in the United Kingdom that houses Martians. As we follow the narrator 's journey to safety we learn about the Martians physiology, machines, and social habits as well as the humans they are terrorizing, revealing some interesting ideas that Wells had. H.G. Wells was a British writer who was well known for his writing in science fiction. Before his writing career started
Disney World is known as the most magical place on earth, and not just because of their fairy tales. It is really the most magical place on earth and is worth the cost to visit. It is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity.
Disney World was first opened in 1971. Its purpose was to provide a disney park for people east of the Mississippi River. Magic Kingdom was the original park, and it was followed by Epcot which was open eleven years later. Hollywood Studios opened in 1989, and lastly Animal
spending most of my time out of doors in the fields and woods I became thoroughly immersed in the sights, sounds and smells of nature. The natural world, down to the most insignificant seeming grain of dirt, seems alive, mysterious and full of wonder. Being outside, experiencing the endless richness, variety and beauty of earth and the natural world first hand is a deeply spiritual experience. My wish is to absorb, understand and share this marvel thoroughly as possible through painting. Painting
1. Summarize Copernicus’ arguments claiming that the earth is not in the center of
the world, and that it does have multiple motions. In addition, which specific argument(s) of Copernicus do you find convincing all by itself and why? (50 points)
1. “The World is Spherical.” Copernicus argues that the world is spherical because, “…this figure is the most perfect of all, as it is an integral whole…” (8). In addition, he argues that, of all shapes, spheres contain the most volume, and
the incoming and outgoing energies. The vast majority of incoming energy is from the Sun, approximately 29% of incoming solar radiation is reflected back into outer space while 23% is absorbed by the atmosphere and 48% by the surface of the earth. Thus, the Earth system absorbs roughly 71% of incoming solar energy. The Earth’s surface and atmosphere also radiate thermal infrared energy in order to balance the absorbed solar radiation. This process of reflection, absorption, and thermal radiation constructs
