One child, Margo, recently moved to Venus from Earth, remembers the Sun and tries to explain it to her fellow class mates who believe she is lying. On the day the Sun is to come out

In addition, the Icarus tale in the poem by William, painting by Peter Bruegel the Elder and Icarus Lego cartoon illustrate that the road to freedom leads to death. The poem "Landscape with the Fall of Icarus," by William Carlos Williams describes Icarus felt excited by the thrill of flying that lead him of the feeling of freedom, and obviously, his feeling of joy and freedom made him forgot about his father's warnings. Obviously, Icarus would not remember to be careful when he was flying for the

The methodology in this mission involved the curation of a spacecraft unlike its predecessors. The spacecraft used to carry out this mission is very unique because the craft itself and its tools for data collection are powered by solar panels as appose to the typical power system involving radioisotope decay. Where Jupiter lies relative to the Sun, it receives 25 times less sunlight than Earth receives. Given this lack of sunlight in comparison to Earth, the solar panels for the spacecraft were created

The planets in our solar system all have their unique qualities. Jupiter has it’s spot, Saturn and Uranus have rings, Mercury is hot, Neptune is cold, Earth has a living environment, and Pluto is sometimes a planet and sometimes not. Have you ever thought that planets can be compared to people, more specifically, people that are different. Think of the stereotypical high school, you’ve got the popular kids, the potentially popular kids, the “wanna-be” popular kids, the bullies, the nerds and so on

inner planets and the outer planets. They have a lot of differents like atmosphere, weight, size and more. although the inner and outer planets have a lot in common like what they revolve, the solar system they are in and more. With eight planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune) there is a lot of information. With these many planets there are a lot of similarities, that all the planets have.

Mars is also called the red planet by its pink tones. Mars is the fourth planet in the Solar System. The distance from the Earth to Mars depends on the opposition on Mars at the time of opposition is 102 million kilometers. If the opposition happens in the Perihelion the distance at the time of the opposition is 59 million kilometers. Mars is a

The image of the Moon (al-qamar) has been deeply rooted in Islamic culture: it presides the Muslim lunar calendar, of paramount significance to determine the date of the holy month of Islam, Ramadan. Its major role in the division of the celestial atlas would split the astrological year in twenty eight lunar mansions (manzil al-qamar) in which each of the phases of the moon would be associated with a constellation, thus producing a lunar zodiac, possibly used by early Arab Bedouins. Moreover, the

The planet Jupiter has always been a point of interest for mankind, being the largest of the planets and named after the king of the Roman gods. Since Galileo pointed his small, simple telescope at the gas giant, scientists and astronomers have been on the journey to discover the secrets the planet holds. Launched in August, 2011, the Juno Spacecraft will be able to peek through the clouds of mystery that shroud Jupiter, and improve on mankind’s view of the great planet. The main objective of the
