Billion Years Ago Carbon Dioxide
1,230 wordsOur understanding and our modern perception of our solar system, the Milky Way, has been drastically reshaped from the corresponding perception of only a few hundred years ago. Our Solar System, the Milky Way is probably about 4 - 5 billion years old. Only in the last 400 years or so have we realized that the earth is not the "center", and that in the Universe alone there is an immense 200 billion "Suns" in a galaxy like our own. Although the origin of the solar system is uncertain, most scienti...

Global Warming A Deadly Threat For Human Life
1,510 wordsGlobal warming is one of the major environmental issues facing the world today. Global warming refers to an average increase in the Earth's temperature, which in turn causes changes in climate. An increase in the temperature of the Earths surface may lead to changes in rainfall patterns, a rise in sea level, and a wide range of impacts on plants, wildlife, and humans. One cause for Global Warming is called the Greenhouse Effect. The Greenhouse Effect results from a four step process. First, sunl...

1,087 wordsOur planet Uranus. Uranus is the seventh planet of our solar system. Uranus is the mysterious blue planet that circles the sun, far from the Earth. A man named William Herschel first discovered this mysterious planet in 1781, he was a German musician living in England who had a great interest in Astronomy. He believed the sky held secrets he wanted to know. He couldnt afford to buy a big telescope, so he made his own. One night in March 1781, Herschel was studying constellations of Gemini. He sp...

20 Th Century Effects Of Global
1,147 wordsImagine that all the coastal areas in the world were completely submerged in water and the national parks and rangelands of the world were nothing but barren disasters. This scenario will become a reality if global warming continues to occur. Ecosystems will be severely damaged due to the change in weather it causes. Studies show that the change in weather can also spread contagious diseases that are carried by mosquitoes and other virus carrying animal that dwell in warm areas. The cause of thi...

Green House Effect Effects Of Global Warming
1,263 wordsGlobal Warming is a great climatic phenomenon. The earth s temperature is rising and it is due to human activities. This rise in Earth s overall average temperature may seem minor or even irrelevant, but it is problem that should be taken seriously by the people and governments of this planet. Global warming is a serious threat to man s well being that he has brought upon himself. Global warming is caused by the Green House Effect. The Green House Effect is a natural part of the earth s atmosphe...

Greenhouse Gas Emissions Amount Of Carbon Dioxide
1,214 wordsThe Global Warming Global Warming The beginning of the Industrial Revolution brought many new, exciting inventions into our lives to simplify our lives and made them more efficient. Such inventions included cars, household appliances and plants that burn solid waste, fossil fuels such as oil, natural gas, and coal, and wood and wood products for fuel. Before the Industrial Revolution, human activities caused very few gases to be released into the atmosphere, but now scientists say, through the b...

Earth Surface Stop Global Warming
980 wordsIn the last century, the earth? s surface temperature has increased 0. 45 - 0. 60 degrees celsius. Although some scientists believe global warming is not a problem, many scientists believe that global warming is a serious problem, and can not be ignored. Global warming, as the term implies, is the increasing temperature of earth. A factor that is believed to play a part in this is the greenhouse effect, which is the effect in which greenhouse gasses, such as carbon dioxide allow incoming solar r...

Surface Of The Earth Nitrous Oxide
613 wordsGlobal Global Warming Introduction: Global warming is a term that describes the green house effect-that is rise in temperature of the earth. The earths climate is predicted to change because activities are altering the chemical composition of through the building up of green house gases-primarily CO 2, CH 3, N 2 O and chlorofluorocarbon. These green house gases trap energy from the sun and heat would not escape back in to space. Thus, they warm our world. But problem is arising because the atmos...

Planet From The Sun Outer Planets
2,417 wordsThe Solar System consists of the Sun, the nine planets and their satellites; the comets, asteroids, meteoroids, and interplanetary dust and gas. It is composed of two systems, the inner solar system and the outer solar system. The inner solar system contains the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. The outer solar system contains Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. The inner planets are relatively small and made primarily of rock and iron. The asteroids orbit the sun in a belt beyond the...

Force Of Gravity White Dwarf
2,676 wordsAlthough they are tiny in size, white dwarfs have played a great role in astronomy. These compact stars are very different from familiar objects like our sun. They also pose a seemingly endless series of puzzles, whose solutions provide new insights into many areas of physics and astronomy. To unravel a wide variety of phenomena such as cataclysmic variables (novae, dwarf novae), planetary nebulae, and some types of supernova, we have to understand white dwarfs. These stars may even hold clues t...
