This article “ Water on Mars” by Jennifer Barone is about NASA find water on Mars. The NASA know that their is freezing water on mars but never find liquid water. NASA announced that they find liquid water and something that is related to a small living thing on mars. In 2010 a college student was studying the red planet and he find dark streaks on sloped surface on the red planet. Scientist say that is possible that some kind of living thing could survive on the red planet.…
Also, they're small and not delicate.” (Weir 242) The last connection between the book and the article is the article states that Mars is not as dense like Earth so it has an escape velocity of 5km per second which is only enough to sustain a thin, transparent atmosphere. In the book the MAV must have as little weight to maintain the orbit so Watney has to figure away he can reduce the weight.…
In preparation for the destruction of Earth, humans are to be transported to continue life on the planet Mars. Scientists have been studying this planet for decades. Research and experimentation have shown Mars is capable of supporting human life forms and other organisms. However, the time and money necessary to accomplish such a feat would be astronomical. Matt Williams, the Guide to Space Curator for Universe Today, expresses his opinions on this phenomena in his article, “How Can We Live on Mars?”…
On September 6, the sun let its presence be felt by unleashing two massive solar flares. The first eruption, classified as an X2.2 flare, the strongest since 2008, occurred at 5:10 a.m. ET. Shortly after, at 8:02 a.m ET, the star spewed out a bigger, and more dramatic, X9.3 flare — the strongest on record since December 2006. Solar flares, or storms, beginning with an explosion usually above a sunspot, the area where strong magnetic fields poke through the sun's surface. When these spots become unstable, they erupt, releasing significant amounts of energy.…
Mercury's rare passage across the face of the sun on Monday, May 9, should be an exciting event for skywatchers and scientists alike. The planet's pass across Earth's nearest star may provide information about its thin atmosphere, assist in the hunt for worlds around other stars, and help NASA hone some of its instruments. As seen from Earth, Mercury appears to cross the disk of the sun — an event known as a transit — only about 13 times per century. Currently, transits of Mercury always occur in either May or November (this changes over hundreds of years), with spring transits only occurring about a third of the time.…
Many have asked the question why doesn't Mars have oceans? A recent breakthrough discovery has confirmed that liquid water does exist on Mars. This means there is the potential for life to exist here. However, this water is very minimal compared to previous levels of water found on Mars. A study done by Geronimo Villanueva and Michael Mumma of NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center reveals that Mars used to have at minimum…
Sunspots have been observed since the time of Galileo when he used the telescope to observe the sun. They are visible through a telescope as darkened spots on the sun caused by an area of extreme magnetic activity and dramatically lower temperatures (compared to the average temperature of the sun). The sunspots are approximately 2,000 degrees’ kelvin cooler than the photosphere which is why they appear darker against their hotter surroundings. The diameter of a sunspot varies from approximately 700km to over 7,000km and has a magnetic field of up to 0.4 tesla, which is extremely high. Sunspots are caused by locations of magnetic field disruptions inside the sun which prevent a lot of heat from reaching the surface, hence the cooler temperatures.…
Mars would be the planet to expect to show the greatest variation in apparent brightness as seen from Earth. None of the planets makes a large percentage change in its distance from the Sun. Mercury only makes a moderate change in its distance from Earth, which tends to be canceled by its phases. Mercury can hardly be seen except near Greatest Elongation, so it’s a never far from being a half-Mercury phase if visible. Venus makes a large fractional change only about 0.3 to 1.6 AU, but this is offset by the smaller fraction of illuminated surface, we see due to the phases.…
Do Not Colonize Mars Did you know that if the dust storms on Mars are large enough, they could knock out the sun for days? That is one of the inconveniences of inhabiting Mars. There are many people who think we should colonize Mars, and some people disagree. I believe that we should not colonize Mars.…
Mars, the fourth planet away from the sun, is our next door neighbor. Since Mars is pretty close to Earth (compared to other planets) and we have the technology; people will move there and never come back. This one way ticket to Mars is called Mars One. People have made this the experience of the century, and each day we learn more and more about Mars. Leaving Earth to go to Mars probably means leaving your whole life on Earth and starting a new life on a whole new different planet that you would not know much about.…
Moreover, the rearrangement of the sun's magnetic field that sustain high speed streams can cause powerful geomagnetic storms on Earth and can change to a "radiation environment in the inner magnetosphere."…
Scientists have recently found liquid water on Mars, but it is mars atmosphere that creates a problem for intelligent life to live on the planet. Mars atmosphere severely lacks oxygen. Mars’ atmosphere contains ninety-five percent carbon dioxide, three percent nitrogen, and one and six-tenths percent argon (Exploring Life’s Mysteries). It has significantly lower pressure than Earth has. These factors would greatly impact any intelligent life form attempting to survive on Mars.…
Mars is a planet full of deep, rich history and lies in the Milky Way Galaxy. People all over the world are captivated by the fourth planet in the solar system due to the possibilities of life on the red planet. Scientists study this terrestrial planet’s properties to test and understand the planet’s potential habitability for life in its past. Mars is truly a captivating planet that leaves one wanting to uncover the mysteries that it holds underneath its thin layer of atmosphere.…
Zakariya Daham, NA14 Song Analysis 2016-02-12 (Is there) Life on Mars? ’’Life on Mars’’ is a song with the text and music written by the British musician David Bowie. It was first released as a single in the 22th of June, 1971, and was later featured in his album Hunky Dory. David Bowie is notoriously famous for his critique of society, and this song of his is a metaphorical masterpiece that takes the crown.…
The power of the human mind is limitless and cannot be measured in any shape or form. It has the power to create and innovate unimaginable structures and formulas. It has the power to learn and adapt from failure and to think outside the box. On the other hand, nature has the capability of being either: calm and beautiful or destructive and vicious. Nature is the most destructive force the humanity has ever seen, even more, powerful than an atomic bomb.…
