Typhoon A typhoon is a mature tropical cyclone that develops in the northwestern part of the Pacific Ocean between 180° and 100°E. This region is referred to as the northwest Pacific basin.[1] For organizational purposes‚ the northern Pacific Ocean is divided into three regions: the eastern (North America to 140°W)‚ central (140°W to 180°)‚ and western (180° to 100°E). Identical phenomena in the eastern north Pacific are called hurricanes‚ with tropical cyclones moving into the western

The Size of the Solar System Overview • Become familiar with the scale of the planets vs. their distances. • Get an overview of the solar system. Introduction It is easy to flip to the index of an astronomy textbook to discover that‚ say‚ the Sun lies 150 million kilometers away from Earth. It is far more difficult (if not impossible)‚ however‚ to picture this distance in the human mind. In this exercise‚ we will learn to access the often unpalatable distances encountered in astronomy

Solar disruption theory was one of several theories that emerged before the 18th century concerning the formation of the solar system. Solar disruption theory states that the collision of the sun with another stars caused debris to be ejected from its mass and these debris eventually became the planets. This theory was later discarded for the nebula theory of solar system formation. However there are some scientists that propose that it has some merit. The big question up until the 18th century

Planets During the accretion phase of the birth of our solar system‚ hundreds to thousands of planetesimals congregated and coalesced. However‚ eight true planets have survived to this day with the ninth possibly being the largest of the Kuiper Belt objects. These planets are broken into two sections‚ inner solar system and outer.

It uses the WFC3 to see dark matter. The space telescope has also discovered Pluto’s moons‚ Nix and Hydra. Another discovery was Eris‚ a dwarf planet. With this discovery‚ scientists realized that there might be more planets like Eris out in the Kuiper Belt. Hubble Space Telescope has taken many pictures of gamma ray bursts. Gamma ray bursts are giant explosions in space. This explosion sends out more energy than what our sun will make in 10 billion years. The Hubble Telescope has caught Comet Shoemaker-Levy
