Colombia. Similarly‚ during the summer following eleventh grade‚ I was one of ninety students from New Jersey selected to attend the Governor’s School in the Sciences at Drew University. At Drew‚ I took courses in molecular orbital theory‚ special relativity‚ cognitive psychology‚ and I participated in an astrophysics research project. For my independent research project‚ I used a telescope to find the angular velocity of Pluto. With the angular velocity determined‚ I used Einstein’s field equations

into motion. Einstein refers to this force as “the cosmological constant”. This constant corrected Einstein’s theory of relativity to explain the movement of the universe. Originally Einstein believed that the universe was static even though his mathematical theories suggested otherwise. It was not until another mathematician Friedmann‚ solved Einsteins’s equation of general relativity using the cosmological constant. Einstein referred to this mistake as being the “biggest blunder” of his life. As

I think I may be one of the few in this class that was around for the entire Apollo program for this reason I have decided to research more about the program and one of its experiments in general. The Apollo Program was conducted from 1963 with the launch of AS-202 until 1972 when Apollo 17 completed its mission on December 19th. The purpose of the Project was to land a manned lunar module on the Moon from which they would conduct experiments‚ explore the surface‚ and take pictures of the lunar

that supernatural event. Backed by Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity‚ along with Hubble’s discovery of an ever expanding universe‚ this particular theory is accepted by the majority of the scientific community. This theory made a huge impact on the scientific world and is an integral part of how the universe was formed as we know it today. The Big Bang model itself is a natural outcome of Einstein’s theory of General Relativity as applied to a homogeneous universe (WMAP).

own Milky Way showed that they were systematically moving away from us with a speed that was proportional to their distance from us. The more distant the galaxy‚ the faster it was receding from us. The universe was expanding after all‚ just as General Relativity originally predicted! Hubble observed that the light from a given galaxy was shifted further toward the red end of the light spectrum the further that galaxy was from our galaxy. The specific form of Hubble’s expansion law is important: the

When he returned to Caltech‚ he became a professor of theatrical physics in 1970. After a couple years‚ Kip Thorne wrote Gravitation in 1973‚ which became the standard graduate school text on general relativity. After a few more years he also wrote a very popular book called Black Holes and Time Warps: Einstein’s Outrageous Legacy‚ which was written in 1994.

According to the Big Bang model‚ theUniverse expanded from an extremely dense and hot state and continues to expand today. A common analogy explains that space itself is expanding‚ carrying galaxies with it‚ like spots on an inflating balloon. The graphic scheme above is an artist ’s concept illustrating the expansion
