Meteor Impact Earth Objects Meteors
589 words
Meteors are very common throughout outer space.
They are being whipped around our solar system in
every orbit possible. Normally they are peacefully
and serenely floating through space, but one just
has to look at the cratered face of our moon or
Jupiter's moon Callisto to see that more than a
few meteors journeys through space have been
interrupted. The earth has been hit before and
will be hit in the future, statistics show this.
We must detect the meteors a long time before they
cross paths w...

Life On Mars Washington D C
1,018 words
If life ever evolved on any of the other planets,
Mars is the likeliest candidate. After Earth, Mars
is the planet with the most hospitable climate in
the solar system. So hospitable that it may once
have inhabited primitive, bacteria-like life.
Outflow channels and other geologic features
provide extensive evidence that billions of years
ago liquid water flowed on the surface of Mars.
Continuing changes is an accomplishment in modern
American technology and it gives the world a step

Greenhouse Gases Greenhouse Effect
412 words
Is global warming real? Im sure this seems like
quite an absurd question to many people. With the
accumulation of hard evidence for global warming
and our supercharging greenhouse effect most
people have already taken for granted that the
problem truly exists. There are, however, a small,
almost unheard of group of people who are
convinced otherwise. One such person is William
Robert Johnston. His article on web clearly shows
his scepticism towards global warming. He has come
up with his own evi...

Circular Motion Earthquake Earthquakes
316 words
Before talking about Earthquake, we have to get a
better understanding about the Earth, and what
happen to it that causes the movement called
Earthquake. Lets start saying that the Earth is
divided into three parts: the crust, the mantle,
and the core. The mantle of the earth is where
many earthquakes begin, in that place, the
temperatures are very hot. The heat causes some
rock to soften; this softened rock is called magma
that moves through the mantle in a circular
motion. This process is call...

It is a pristine tradition that much matters to a

way if he has to understand this immensely
valuable message. The reader wil...

Igneous Rocks Earths Surface
378 words
Out of the three different types of rocks, igneous
rocks are by far the most abundant rock on the
earths surface. From the oceans to the mountains,
you will find igneous rocks everywhere and it is
easy to see why. Igneous rocks are a result of
solidified magma. Magma is found underneath the
earths surface all over. Mountains are usually
volcanoes; either extinct, dormant or active.
Volcanoes contain magma. Magma is cooling all the
time. This would mean that the rocks that form
from lava spews, o...

lithium) was discovered by the Brazilian scientist
Jos Bonifcio de Andrada e Silva towards the end of
the 18 th century while visiting Sweden. Lithium
was discovered by Johan August Arfvedson in 1817
during an analysis of Petalite ore. Arfvedson
subsequently discovered lithium in the minerals
spodumene and lepidolite. C. G. Gmelin observed in

Uv Radiation Ozone Depletion

Our Radiant Planet- Depletion of the Ozone Layer
Ozone is a relatively unstable form of molecular
oxygen containing three oxygen atoms produced when
upper-atmosphere oxygen molecules are split by
ultra violet light. Stratospheric ozone is found
in a broad band, extending generally from 15 to 35
km above the earth. Although the ozone layer is
surprisingly thin, it acts as a protective shield
to the earth, as it filters out most of the
harmful solar ultraviolet radiation (in particular
UV-B) that ...

Oxygen Was First Earths Crust Found
275 words
Oxygen was first Oxygen Discovery Oxygen was first
discovered by two scientists. One was a British
Chemist Joseph Priestly who was given credit for
the discovery in 1774. The other was a Swedish
Chemist Carl Wilhelm Schedule who had also
discovered it around the same time as Priestly.
Yet Priestly was given credit because his work,
and results were published. Priestly had first
found this new element when he observed that
mercuric oxide, on heating. Yielded a gas that
caused a flame to burn fast...

Ultraviolet Rays Uv Rays
633 words
The ozone layer shields the earth from most of the
harmful radiation and light comming from the sun.
The ozone reflects and absorbs the ultraviolet
rays that try to come in. Without this kind of
protection, all living things will be effected by
these UV rays. Skin cancer develops in most living
mammals as a cause of an overabundance of the suns
ultraviolet rays. The ozone layer is located in
the earths stratosphere. The ozone layer is
located from about fifteen-to-thirty kilometers
above the ear...

Reduce The Amount Ozone Layer

Society has been widely addressed with the many
problems that we are having in our environment
today. A major problem is that of CFCs. CFC stands
for Chlorofluorocarbons which are found in many of
the aerosol spray cans. In December of 1973,
Rowland and Molina discovered that CFCs can
destroy the ozone in the stratosphere. In June
1975, the Natural Resources Defence Council (NRDC)
sued the Consumers Product Safety Commission for a
band of CFCs used in aerosol spray cans. United

Spoon River Thomas Rhodes talks about how the
people in Spoon River could have prevented their
hard times. He compared people in Spoon River to
navigators and sailors because they found with all
their boasted wisdom how hard at the last it is to
keep the soul from splitting into cellular atoms.
He also says that seekers of earths treasures are
self-contained and harmonized even to the end. In
