Craters on the Moon

The Moon’s cratered surface tells a violent story about the Impact of the Skywalkers. Bright areas are ancient crust that makes up the highlands Dark areas are newer regions of lava that formed after asteroid impacts.

Boltzmann's Theory
The work of the Austrian physical Ludwig Boltzmann suggested an answer to the question: why does time seem to go only in one direction ? Boltzmann suggested that the amount of disorder, or entropy, in the universe increases over time.
Atomic Discovery
Atomic theory is a theory of the nature of matter, which states that matter is composed of discrete units called atoms, as opposed to the obsolete notion that matter could be divided into any arbitrarily small quantity. The Atoms are subdivided into Nucleus. The Nucleus is formed with thousands of Nucleons. The Nucleons are again subdivided into Quarks. No matter how these are discovered, these di...

The Birth of a Solar System
Most astronomers believe that all the members of the solar system, from the giant Sun to the smallest asteroid, were born out of a vast, spinning cloud of gas and dust – the solar nebula. The process began 5 billion years ago with the formation of the Sun. The planets and other objects formed from unused material. When the solar system was nearly complete, 500 million years later, just 0....
Phases of Venus
Parallel to the Venus Express Mission, ESA has initiated an observing campaign that incorporates a number of professional and amateur observers. Since the cameras onboard Venus Express have only a small field of view, ground based observations can provide important context information on Venus’s dense atmosphere as a whole.
50 Years of Spaceflight -- Capsles and Shuttles
It has been 50 years since the Russian pilot Yuri Gagarin has stepped onto the Moon in 1961. Since then more than 500 people have been launched into space in a variety of vessels. Twelve people have walked on the moon, and an additional 14 have flown over the moon without landing. The farthest away that humans have traveled so far was 248655 mi, which was achieved by the Apollo 13 astronauts ...
The Universe Shown in a Diagram
So incomprehensible is space that unequivocally to discover our earth's planetary group we should make five jumps of scale. The critical unifier of the universe is gravity. It keeps the stars of a system and the systems of a group, as a single unit. Anyhow bunches, gatherings and segregated unique systems are all taking off from one another, a carrying on repercussions of the huge explosion, an er...

The Space shuttle bearer or the transporter flies return flights for the most part leave at day break or right away thereafter. Flying in the ballpark of 50 miles in front of it could be a pathfinder plane checking for climate unsettling influences and rerouteing the shuttle transporter if essential. In the ballpark of 30 group parts fly with the pathfinder and examine the shuttle for ha...
Myers-Briggs Personality Chart
The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) assessment is a psychometric questionnaire designed to measure psychological preferences in how people perceive the world and make decisions. These preferences were extrapolated from the typological theories proposed by Carl Gustav Jung and first published in his 1921 book Psychological Types (English edition, 1923). Jung theorized that there are four pri...

In this era of 50 years of Manned Space Flight, USA stands at the top of the list in the Nations with the most Astronauts who have been sent to the space. Russia stands at the third position with France and Germany following it. The farthest Manned Missions from Earth is Apollo 13 which has travelled around 401,056 km in 1970. Next farthest is Apollo 8 followed by Gemini 11 and Gemini 10. Yur...
Understanding Auroras
The gathering storm is formed when the solar wind’s magnetic field is pointing in the opposite direction to that of the Earth, it sets up a chain of events that leads to a substorm and produces a Spectacular Aurora. The Earth’s magnetic shield, or magnetosphere, protects the planet from the solar wind, which usually just passes around the earth.
Neptune Explained: Inside and Out
Neptune is the eighth and most distant planet from the Sun in the Earth's planetary group. It's the fourth-most expansive planet by distance across and the third-most vast by mass. Neptune is 17 times the mass of Earth and is to some degree more enormous than its close-twin Uranus, which is 15 times the mass of Earth but not as dense. On normal, Neptune circles the Sun at a separation of 30...

Moon World Map
The Moon (Latin: luna) is the sole characteristic satellite of the Earth, and the fifth most imposing satellite in the Earth's planetary group. It's the greatest characteristic satellite of a planet in the Earth's planetary group with respect to the span of its primary, having 27% the width and 60% the thickness of Earth, bringing about 1⁄81 its mass. The Moon is the second densest satellite f...
Farside of the Moon
The farside of the moon is always turned away from the Earth. Its appearance remained a mystery until 1959, when the Russian spacecraft Luna 3 was able to travel behind the Moon and send back the first photographs. Although the farside looks similar to the moon’s nearside, there are obvious differences. It has few maria, because the lunar crust is thicker than on the nearside, making it dif...
