DISTANCE CALCULATION Because of the near-spherical shape of the Earth (technically an oblate spheroid) ‚ calculating an accurate distance between two points requires the use of spherical geometry and trigonometric math functions. However‚ you can calculate an approximate distance using much simpler math functions. For many applications the approximate distance calculation provides sufficient accuracy with much less complexity. The following approximate distance calculations are relatively simple

EARTH As far as science knows the planet earth is unique in the entire universe. Certainly this is true in our own solar system. Earth is far better suited for life than any other planet‚ yet even here most of the environments are too hot‚ too cold‚ too far underground or too far above ground to support much life. In the many thousands of miles of changing environments from the center of the earth to the edge of its atmosphere‚ there are only a few meters of habitable environment for most life forms

Plutonium is a dangerous toxin that is released from nuclear power plants. “Plutonium‚ which has the half-life of only 0.5 million years‚ but is so toxic that
