Sun And Moon Aubrey Holes

I. On Salisbury Plain in Southern England stands
Stonehenge, the most famous of all megalithic
sites. Stonehenge is unique among the monuments of

gently sloping hill on Salisbury Plain about
thirty miles from the English Channel. The stones
are visible over the hills for a mile or two in
every direction. Stonehen...

What Would Happen If The Moon Were Destroyed
1,095 words
What would happen if the moon was destroyed? I
have often wondered what would happen if the moon
were destroyed and how it would be destroyed.
Would a crazy scientist nuke it? Maybe an asteroid
would hit it. Astronomers have catalogued all
large objects in space that are larger than 500
kilometers in diameter and non-of them seem to be
headed towards our moon. Based on this
information, the only conclusion that I can come
up with, was if the moon was to be blown up by
some crazy scientist. Many ...

false prophets. They come to you in sheep's
clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves.

to inflation. The U. S. inflation rate does not
only depend on the U. S. though. If the Fed drove
more dollars into the U. S. it would ultimately
drive the value of the dollar down in the foreign
markets. People with the extra money in the U. S.

Hitler s Re militarization of the Rhineland In

and defensively against France. Third, Hitler also

The score on an intelligence test does predict one
s ability to handle school subjects, though it
foretells little of success later in life.
(Gardner) Intelligence by definition is the
capacity to understand and apply knowledge.
Honestly, how can that be tested? What happens if
the test taker is sick or he / she is answering
the questions stupidly for some odd reason? There

have no bearing other than a predicting tool. Not

On a clear night, only a few hundred stars can be
seen without the use of any astronomical
instruments. The Milky Way Galaxy consists of at
least 200 billion stars. Stars are huge balls of
hot gases. The sun is a star, but it is not the

has three recognizable stages: its birth; the
years in which it exists; and its death. Its
formation and its life expectancy have captured
the curiosity of astronomers for centuries.
