There are things in the universe that are the size of a atom but have the mass of a large mountain. Being one of the most mysterious objects in the universe, Black holes are one of the main interest of research for astronomers and astrophysics. These things consume everything that comes in contact, or near them. Now scientist have come up with some information on how they work, how they are formed, and what they do even how big they can get. How are black holes formed and what causes them to form

In the end though he is very certain of his doom he still believes in the catholic belief that one can be redeemed if they repent

most important of questions and now that humans have begun to discover extra-solar planets in their galactic neighborhood they may soon find out. The sheer mathematical probability since there are hundreds of billions of stars that populate the Milky Way galaxy. Since 1995, more than 200 extra-solar planets have been discovered, demonstrating not only are those planetary systems are common, but also that planets may come in a large variety of flavors. As the number of detections grows, statistical

When slavery existed in the United States, slaves counted on the Big Dipper (which they called the Drinking Gourd) to show them the North Star, lighting their way to the free states and Canada.” (earthsky) Polaris is not hard to miss in the sky; it is the 50th brightest star and does not disappear. The reason this star will not disappear is due to the fact that the Earth’s axis is aligned pointing towards Polaris

Astronomy 2B03: Lecture 2: What’s Out There? * Objects in the universe come in a hierarchy of scales and sizes: * Planets * Stars * Galaxies * The universe as a whole * These scales are so different from one step to the next that they are incredibly hard to comprehend all at once – no “everyday” experience to refer them to * If the Earth were a basketball how big would the moon be? Tennis ball * How many Earths would fit into the Sun? ~ 1 million

Anyone that dared to challenge the earth center model was immediately considered a heretic and

To explain the photoelectric effect, Einstein came up with the photon hypothesis. The energy of a photon is associated with its frequency with the relation (1.1) Where h is the Planck constant. And to solve the paradox that electrons goes around the nuclear without electromagnetic radiation, Bohr put forward the atom model. In this theory the electrons have stationary orbits (1.2) Where is called the reduced mass. When the electrons transit from the high energy levels to the lower ones,
