Meteorite

If life were to exist elsewhere than on Earth. Probably, Mars would be the likeliest one. Mars has the elements that are needed for life and the energy is available for life in the form of the sun. The geological evidence from the past suggests that Mars once had a liquid water on its surface. Mars is almost half the diameter of Earth and is the fourth planet from the sun. It is less dense than the Earth as the atmospheric carbon dioxide is 10,000 times thinner than the earth. Mars is called as

are located in between Mars and Jupiter, called the asteroid belt. When a meteoroid has been knocked out of the asteroid belt and is on it way towards earth the meteoroid is now a meteor, if the the meteor hits the ground it changes to a meteorite. When the meteorite makes contact with the ground it causes a crater to form, craters are holes on the ground made by the impact of a meteoroid coming towards earth. Hypothesis: If the angle of impact changes, then the diameter of the crater

The Habitable Zone There are approximately seven billion people living on the Earth right now. Who can picture 1 million people, let alone 7 billion people? Yet the total incomprehension of it does not make the fact any less true. Nobody has ever seen an alien or an organism that has not originated from Earth, yet it does not make the prospect any less valid. Most citizens of Earth cannot imagine living anywhere else but on this blue planet, but that should not make the possibility of it any less

Natural occurrences like volcanoes, meteorite, and ice cap size fluctuations came have a recordable effect on El Niño. Volcanic eruptions have a direct impact on reducing the trade winds over the ocean and potentially triggering an El Niño. In addition to effects to El Niño, a volcano can greenhouse gasses like carbon dioxide which has been shown to increase global warming. Just like the debris that is created from a volcano, meteorites can produce enough dust to cause a shift in weather

The article “Water in Your Glass Might Be Older Than the Sun” presented in the New York Times (Times) by Nicholas St. Fleur is based on the article “The ancient heritage of water ice in the solar system” from Science magazine by Cleeves et al., and while the Times article correctly summarizes the article in Science, it is written in a manner that uses vague words to appeal to a general audience and the article disregards a majority of important information. The article from the Times begins by explaining

bring that sense of unease through creatures and events that exude this concept. A personal favorite example of mine is “The Colour Out of Space”. In the story “The Colour Out of Space” a man discovers the horrific story of a meteorite impact at a local farm. A meteorite came from the sky and landed in the farm, and soon after the scientific community was fascinated by the object. The object was utterly unique; it was luminescent, seemed to disappear and eat through objects, and never cooled down

<center><b>What is the evidence for our knowledge of the internal structure of the Earth?</b></center><br><br>As we enter the twenty first century we are beginning to learn more and more about the composition of the Earth. Early predictions have thrown up some rather strange and peculiar thoughts as to what is making up our Earth, but now day¡¦s scientists can be confident that the Earth is made up of what they think. As from experiments and other sources of information a picture to what is really

that since they are inactive and orbit the Sun that asteroids are not a real threat. So why study asteroids? There is interest in asteroids as they are debris from the formation of solar system. Consequently, asteroids are also the sources of most meteorites that have struck Earth. In addition, these objects will continue to collide with the Earth in the future. This is well documented in Asteroid Strike, which does more than enough to make us become aware of how vulnerable planet Earth is when considering

Upon entering the Hall of Gems and Mineral, you are plunged into the deep recesses of space where meteorites, the gems of space, rule. The roof of the Moon, Meteorites, and the Solar System gallery section was painted pitch black like the night sky. Along the roof, there were lights on tracks so that they could be moved to highlight specific pieces in the exhibit. These lights also seem to represent stars in the night sky, because they were bright, you could see them, but they were out of reach.

The Primordial Soup Hypothesis: The primordial soup hypotheses states that all life began in ponds or oceans,which came from a combination of chemicals that make amino acids, which would then evolve into the species we know today. The scientists who came up with the hypotheses is A.I Oparin and J.B.S Haldane. The hypotheses was presented in 1924. The claim that these scientists made in the primordial soup theory was that Earth had a chemically reducing atmosphere, which was exposed to different kinds
