    Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) and climatic model (CLM 4.5) outputs were conducted over the southern part of the Nubian Sandstone Aquifer System (NSAS) (area: 835 × 103 km2) in Sudan and Chad to estimate the natural recharge rate. The Nubian Sandstone Aquifer System (NSAS) is shared by Egypt, Libya, Chad, and Sudan, and is one of the largest (area: ~ 2 × 106 km2) groundwater systems in the world. Findings from the study include: (1) average annual precipitation was estimated at 77

    Kimberly Shim ESS 102 AE Effect of Long Term Space Flight Summary of Sci Fi Paper After decades of trying to send humans to Mars, thousands of years later humans have finally formed a colony on Mars. After generations of living on the new planet, humans have adapted to the different conditions of being away from Earth. The story will follow new people’s lives on Mars and what happens when some leave Mars to go back to Earth. The effects of travelling in space on the human body is a subject that

    The Tragic Impermanence of Youth in Robert Frost's Nothing Gold Can Stay In his poem "Nothing Gold can Stay", Robert Frost names youth and its attributes as invaluable. Using nature as an example, Frost relates the earliest green of a newborn plant to gold; its first leaves are equated with flowers. However, to hold something as fleeting as youth in the highest of esteems is to set one's self up for tragedy. The laws of the Universe cast the glories of youth into an unquestionable state of impermanence

    “Why is the night sky dark?” For thousands of years this question has been asked. Astronomers are continually growing closer to the answer but still no one has yet found an answer that is efficient enough. While scientists steadily collect data, they are hoping to find some clue as to realize that the answer may be because of something that is too mind blowing for us to comprehend. There is perhaps no current problem of greater importance to astrophysics and cosmology than that of "dark matter".

    Meridith’s Dream I was in an ethereal world, where everything and everyone was light and afloat. A place where responsibilities and duties were meaningless, because we had all the time in the world to just float and be free. The weightlessness feeling washed over me like waves over the seashore. I was immersed in a feeling of mild tranquility. It’s amazing how the world can be renewed just by getting rid of gravity. By defying it. I looked around. It looked fairly ordinary, it was a small street

    The presented investigation reports a semi-analytical model development to study the nonlinear gravito-electrostatic fluctuation dynamics and its evolutionary saturation into nonlinear coherent eigen-structures in a simplistic form of a complex star-forming rotating dust molecular cloud on the relevant astrophysical fluid scales of space and time. The conducted examination is configured in a nonthermal turbulent viscous dust cloud consisting of multi-fluidic constitutional species, such as the (--

    Topic:Space Mountain Space Mountain has the power of going into a faster speed with its total mass and action. Even the power rises its mass. When the roller coaster train stops, the brakes have a force when riders get on the roller coaster train or waiting for the other train to begin the ride. Newton’s 1st law represents Space Mountain going into a constant speed with the velocity or mass. The air and the train has a force to go to the same direction going forward not going backwards. Furthermore

    Why are planets spherical and what would happen if they were a different shape? Nearly every planet, moon or star discovered so far has been roughly spherical. This is because bodies of mass large enough will cause a gravitational pull. As the object gets bigger, the stronger the gravitational pull would be. Along with the gravitational pull that object creates, other objects would have pulls of their own which in turn would affect the other objects’ shape. One way we can see this is with our moon

    The information from the experiment could be useful in fields that study things based on light. Fields like in astronomy see that the light that they receive might be distorted a lot based on the temperatures of liquids in spaces. This could be useful because stuff like asteroids could have liquids that might reflect some light making it hard to detect. Also, light coming from other plants as the planet can distort light a lot due to atmosphere containing different temperatures. Though this experiment
