Interstellar medium

The idea of interstellar travel was explored methodically in order to answer why one would want to travel to other stars, where in space could humanity realistically travel to, what factors are preventing mankind from reaching these stars and how can they could be overcome. The inquisitiveness of the human mind and the fact that Earth will not be habitable forever is a substantial motivation in favour of interstellar travel. The main requirement for a habitable planet is that it is in the "Habitable

Interstellar (2014), directed by Christopher Nolan and co-written by Jonathan Nolan, is an epic science fiction film that depicts extreme measures that one would pursue for love. The film questions how far a man is willing to go in order to achieve safety for his family. Cooper (Matthew McConaughey) exemplifies that without a proper plan, he is still willing to push his own limits. Interstellar depicts the theme of a father’s love through the music score, the plot structure, the dialogue, the dynamic

Since ancient times, men have gazed upon the cosmic ocean above our heads wondering what could be out there. In the last 2 centuries human kind has made a huge leap in technology and science, from horse drawn carriages to spaceships capable to send us into space. What used to be considered science fiction now is considered science fact. In 1969, Apollo 11 was the first manned mission to land on the moon, opening the path towards the stars. One problem that we encounter is distance. The closest star

pH and any other specific conditions were provided. The most basic and common medium of growth on the nutrient broth, which contains water, beef extract and peptone. Although most bacteria will grow in this medium, some bacteria are fastidious and require special growth supplements such as blood or sugar. Further in mixed populations where it would be difficult to isolate the minority type of organism in a simple medium. Therefore, media can be divided into different types depending on the chemical

Traditional Analysis of Unknown Colony Morphology Color- light yellow pigmentation Form- circular Elevation- convex Margin- entire [staphylococci] DNase Test This test is used to detect if the bacteria contains any deoxyribonuclease activity. Because no color change was observed from blue to clear my unknown bacteria displayed a negative result. Blood agar plate This test is used to detect the hemolytic activity in the bacteria. A darkish green color on the media around the

The movie Out of the Past directed by Jacques Tourneur fits within the traditions of film noir because it has some similar themes associated with it, such as doomed love. Robert Mitchum plays the doomed, double-crossed , ex-private eye as Jeff Markham. The femme fatale is played by Jane Greer as Kathie Moffat, who is trying to escape her future. Kirk Douglas as Whit Sterling plays the ruthless gangster czar in the film. The formal cinematic elements in the movie are used to vividly describe the movie

Background The oil spills from an off-shore oil rig or tanker can do tremendous damage to the esosystem in the area of the spill and expand over vast regions to affect coastlines and indigenous wildlife hundreds of miles away. Cleaning oil spills, especially in a marine environment is important and it is a challenging task. The methods currently used to clean oil in water can be divided into following categories: using booms and skimmer; using oil solidifier and dispersants; adding biological agents

Bacterial Growth Lab Priyanka Savaliya Mrs. Bronson September 18th/2013  Bacterial Growth Lab Introduction: In this bacteria growth lab, students from Mrs. Bronson’s biology class collected bacteria samples from around the school and grew them in petri dishes filled with agar which were prepared one day before in advance with the expectation that after one week, distinct bacterial colonies will grow larger in numbers so that the human can see them. These single-celled prokaryotes were grown on agar
