Sabrina Suazo Honors BIO 1 Dr.Barrios 9/19/13 “Why Science is Important” Many people in present time believe that science is something that is not necessary to learn. I believe that science is something that everyone should know of. Science is everywhere and used for many important things. I think this way because first‚ science is used for medical reasons. Next‚ without science no one would know where humans came from. Lastly‚ science provides many answers about the universe we live in

Black Holes and Their Mysteries Black holes are one of the most popular Hollywood science fiction topics also one of the most mysterious entities in space. Astronomers still have many questions regarding the darkest entity in space‚ black holes‚ but over time they began to analyze more and more clues and data‚ and are now able to explain what a black hole really is. Astronomers have come up with theories of the formations of black holes‚ the component of black holes as well as many other

During the next eighteen days‚ the Odyssey navigated through a dazzling array of nebulae as they left the Orion spur and entered the Perseus arm of the Milky Way Galaxy. In one area‚ in particular‚ the spirals of nebula clouds reminded Surina of Vincent Van Gogh’s Starry Night painting. On another occasion‚ she saw an electrifying nebula cloud in the shape of a cat’s neon green eye staring at her from a distance. In fact‚ the serpentine arms of the nebula clouds stretched throughout interstellar

to the formation of the Earth? The earth started off really hot and it was all compressed together. When the universe began to cool down and get bigger the elements were formed. Than hydrogen and helium formed our stars and galaxies than when the milky-way galaxy took place that is when earth and the rest of our solar system was formed. According to researchers the earth and other planets all formed at the same time. 2. What is the evolution of Earth’s atmosphere? In particular‚ what

Distant stars and distant galaxies aren’t completely featureless‚ but actually has specific spectral features. When we look at their spectrum‚ we can see an absorption of spectrum. Redshift and blueshift are two different terms that describe how the light changes as objects moves closer or further away from us. The reason that these two terms can describe whether or not objects moves closer or further away from us‚ is the fact that when a certain object in space is shifted to the red part of the

The Big Bang theory was introduced in 1927‚ Georges LeMaitre showed that religion and science‚ or at least physics‚ did not have to be incompatible. In 1929‚ Edwin Hubble discovered the galaxies were moving away at high speeds. The Big Bang was not like an explosion of a bomb going off‚ but an explosion of space within itself. (“A Science Odyssey: People and Discoveries: Big Bang Theory is Introduced”‚ n.d.). Just as the Big Bang provided

What is the Big Bang‚ and what does it say about the age of the universe? 4. What is meant by the phase “looking out in the universe is looking back in time?” 1. The earth’s sun is a star‚ it generates heat and light through nuclear fusion. 2. The Milky Way galaxy is the constellation that earth belongs to‚ the sun is just another star within it. 3. The big

Edwin Hubble He began a painstakingly slow observation of nebulae‚ small patches of light that appeared outside our galaxy. Edwin Hubble discovered that these nebulae were in fact galaxies like our own‚ millions of light years away from us‚ which proved that the universe was vastly larger than had previously been thought.
