The story‚ created by David Moody‚ compares to a train moving away from a station platform. At first‚ a person could run alongside the track easily‚ though as the train speeds up‚ there comes a moment that the runner anticipates the futility of persevering‚ and as the cars rush forward‚ the person inevitably slows down‚ or at the last moment a decision emerges to jump on for the ride. I was that runner‚ easily bored at the beginning of the book--my mind outracing the slowness of the words‚ but approaching

Wandered Lonely as a Cloud’ Poem William Wordsworth wrote Daffodils on a stormy day in spring‚ while walking along with his sister Dorothy near Ullswater Lake‚ in England. He imagined that the daffodils were dancing and invoking him to join and enjoy the breezy nature of the fields. Dorothy Wordsworth‚ the younger sister of William Wordsworth‚ found the poem so interesting that she took ’Daffodils’ as the subject for her journal. The poem contains six lines in four stanzas‚ as an appreciation

About how many extrasolar planets have been detected to date? a) 1-10 b) 10-100 c) 100-500 d) 500-1000 e) >1000 What is the easiest way to find planets? a) directly imaging the planet b) seeing the planet "transit" in front of its parent star (will be more prevalent in the future; satellites right now are looking for this) c) measuring the doppler shift of a star’s spectrum lines (gravitational wobble on star) d) X-ray observations Most of the planets discovered around other stars

NASA has identified many planets outside our solar system. According to the article “Out of this world‚” the organization has discovered over twelve hundred thousand exoplanets throughout the Milky Way Galaxy. The TedX video “Are we Alone” explained that there are millions of planets in our universe. Astronomers discovered these planets by measuring the brightness of distant stars over time. Moreover they measured the brightness using advanced telescopes such as the Kepler. If the brightness fluctuates

visitors can actually become observers from outside of the building. For example the museum offered telescopes for me to use to look into the sky. When I walked further along the site I notice a Solar System Lawn Model. Engraved in the ground was the Milky Way (our solar system)‚ and a Sunset and Moonset Radial observer. Since the observatory was in so many movies‚ including: Yes man‚ Funny People‚ and the Terminator. To me it looked like a mansion. It had a large field of grass that on looked the Los

What are the properties of a black hole? How do they form? Why are they invisible? “A black hole is a region of spacetime exhibiting such strong gravitational effects that nothing—including particles and electromagnetic radiation such as light—can escape from inside it. The theory of general relativity predicts that a sufficiently compact mass can deform spacetime to form a black hole.” (Source 1) The collapsing or dying of a star causes the strength of gravity to be so strong that light can’t
