Cicero-α would not think about Regina as much anymore. He was busy with his career. He was fusing hydrogen at a rate unseen in his galaxy. His skills went unnoticed by the others, but he did not mind. He felt a purpose for the first time in his life, like he was doing something right for the first time. However, he would pass by Regina every so often and they would give each other a

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

Astronomers can use the light given off by stars for many things. With the light given off by stars they can see the distance that the star is located from earth. They can also use the light given off by stars to see what that star is composed of. When something is so hot that it glows, for example stars, it shows features that can help you decide what it is made of. This is because different things give off a different spectrum of light when they are burnt to the point that they glow. Each product

“Nebulae” inside the Milky Way Galaxy or separate, distant Galaxies? Discoveries of what were termed “nebulae” began in the early 17th century. The first of these discoveries was the Orion Nebula, which looked like a normal star to the naked eye. French scholar Peiresc discovered it in 1610 using one of the first telescopes to be made. Later, in 1656, Christiaan Huygens observed the interior of the Orion Nebula and determined that it consisted of a compact quadruple star system instead of a singular

Imagine knowing the unknown. Imagine being able to answer open ended questions about the creation of our own universe. Image being able to answer the questions that have been boggling physicists and scientists for centuries. Particle Fever, an American Documentary, tracks a series of experiments whose purpose was just that: answer those questions. What happens when scientists, essentially, recreate the Big Bang Theory in a Large Hadron Collider? Mark Levinson, a physicist turned film-maker, knows

1.8 RRAB RR Lyrae are variables with asymmetric light curves (steep ascending branches), periods from 0.3 to 1.2 days, and amplitudes from 0.5 to 2 mag in V. They are fundamental mode pulsators. 1.9 RRC These are RR Lyrae variables with nearly symmetric, sometimes sinusoidal, light curves, periods from 0.2 to 0.5 days, and amplitudes not greater than 0.8 mag. in V. 1.10 RV These are radially pulsating supergiants having spectral types F-G at maximum light and K-M at minimum. The light curves are

As if the Cat's Eye itself isn't spectacular enough, this new image taken with Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) reveals the full beauty of a bull's eye pattern of eleven or even more concentric rings, or shells, around the Cat's Eye. Each 'ring' is actually the edge of a spherical bubble seen projected onto the sky — that's why it appears bright along its outer edge. Observations suggest the star ejected its mass in a series of pulses at 1,500-year intervals. These convulsions created

utilization of them. Gravitational waves have recently exposed the existence of the merging of two black holes almost 1.3 billion years ago. Kip Thorne clarifies the significance of Einstein’s theory of general relativity and how accurate viewing the galaxy through gravity is. He clearly believes the future utilization of gravity waves will be a momentous human accomplishment. In the past, Einstein used the data, laws and theories he developed to make predictions, one of them being the existence of gravitational

Throughout centuries scientists, philosophers, and theologians have tried to discover a way to explain the creation of the world and the creation of man. Micro evolution and macro evolution are two different types of evolutions that scientists believe to be the causes of the flourishment of the world. Macro evolution is an evolutionary change that applies to the evolution of whole taxonomic groups over long periods of time. This type of evolution applies to an evolution of a species such as a monkey

The last time I remember something changing the night sky in my life time was the comet Hale-bopp back in 1997. I used to sit on the porch on my townhouse and start at it with my Dad. I was only 12 then so I didn't really have the most in-depth knowledge on what a comet was, but it blew my mind into read as much as I could about space. Speaking of the nighttime sky, astronomers are predicting the sky could look a little different in 2022. Calvin College professor Larry Molnar and his students along
