Telescopes in Astronomy SCI/151 Telescopes in Astronomy Telescopes are one of the greatest inventions and have led scientists on a fantastic journey of getting closer to understanding the universe. There is no way to research and evaluate outer space without telescopes gathering all of the information that they do. This paper is going to discuss the science of telescopes and explain all of the elements relative to them. How telescopes changed our view of the universe Without telescopes

occurring ozone gas that sits 15 to 30 kilometers above Earth and serves as a shield from the ultraviolet B radiation emitted by the sun which are very dangerous. Now‚ the problem is that the release of pollution chemicals which humans do‚ is damaging the ozone layer and allows large amounts of ultraviolet B rays to reach Earth‚ which can cause skin cancer and cataracts in humans and animals as well. Extra ultraviolet B radiation reaching Earth also inhibits the reproductive cycle of phytoplankton and some

PHYSICS OF EVERYDAY LIFE BY Neha arora DEPARTMENT OF APPLIED SCIENCES Science is around us everywhere. The water you are drinking has science in it; the house you are living in has science in it. Anywhere you go‚ whatever you do sciences will surely going to help you. When we talk about the educational science‚ there are many other subjects which come under science. These subjects are called branches of science. Some of them are physics‚ chemistry‚ biology‚ astrology‚ etc. Physics is more than

dark experimented to mice‚ pigs‚ and goldfish to test the versatility of the ultraviolet marker. The success of the experiment shows that this ultraviolet marker will not only be able to track certain illnesses‚ otherwise killing silently‚ but hopefully one day be able to slow the extinction of certain wild species. The reason being is that the genetic variation of cats‚ mice‚ pigs and such have common traits‚ the ultraviolet maker used works best to reveal and track these traits. Therefore the possibilities

1987). Introduction Ozone depletion refers to the destruction of the stratospheric ozone which is caused by various factors. It happens when the layer has been negatively affected severely and it takes time (Dobson‚ 2005). This causes the ultraviolet rays to reach the Earth through the ozone hole causing many impacts on marine ecosystem‚ human beings and on crops. Ozone depletion is mainly as a result of the green house gases. This paper is going to focus on the causes‚ impacts‚ possible solutions

energy that travels and spreads out as it goes‚ visible that comes from a lamp in your house and radio waves that come from a radio station are two types of electromagnetic radiation. Other examples of EM radiation are microwaves‚ infrared and ultraviolet light‚ X-rays and gamma-rays. Hotter‚ more energetic objects and events create higher energy radiation than cool objects. Only extremely hot objects or particles moving at very high velocities can create high-energy radiation like X-rays and gamma-rays

sunlight converts oxygen to ozone by photochemical dissolution. The ozonosphere completely absorbs short wave solar radiations‚ such as ultraviolet (uv) radiations‚ x-rays‚ gamma rays etc. from the Sun. Oxygen and ozone of stratosphere provide protection from harmful solar radiation. It protects us from the bad effects of ultraviolet rays of sunlight. The effects of ultraviolet radiations are: * Cataract - eye lens becomes opaque causing blindness * Inflammatory diseases * Skin cancer Scientific

HOW SATELLITE BENEFITS SOCIETY Satellites are used almost everyday by everyone. Even though you can’t see it‚ there will probably be one traveling above you today. Satellites are used for many things such as communication‚ oceanography‚ astronomy‚ surveillance‚ and a variety of other things as well . They help many scientists get a perceptive view at all kinds of objects anywhere in the world. Communications Communication satellites work non-stop 24 hours a day to keep the entire world
