According to Quantum mechanics, electrons bound to an atom can only have particular values of energy; they are unique to that element. Absorption or emission of a photon of light by the atom occurs when the energy of that photon matches the difference between two of these energy levels. The gravitational pull of any object gets weaker the further you move from the object. Thus, the Moon p...

List of All the Missions to Mars to Date
Some of the Missions that have been flown to Mars are Mariner 4, Mars 3, Mars 5, Mars 6, Phobos 2, Mars Express, Dawn. Many have been successfully sent to the Mars and some of them with partial success.It's interesting to see the trend that trips to Mars have taken. Particularly how the USSR sent many probes to Mars before the USA, but the USA had the first successful mission. Check out the other...

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...

Mars World Map
In 1659 Dutch astronomer Christian Huygens, using an early telescope, drew the first sketch of a surface feature on Mars, a dark patch know today as Syrtis Major. More than three centuries later the mars global Surveyor is charting the entire planet. Data beamed from the orbiting surveyor have rendered a detailed and true-color map of this seemingly most Earthlike of planets.

Saturn V Apollo Flight Configuration
The Saturn V (declared "Saturn Five") was an American human-appraised expendable rocket utilized by NASA's Apollo and Skylab systems from 1967 until 1973. A multistage fluid-energized start vehicle, NASA started 13 Saturn Vs from the Kennedy Space Focus, Florida with no misfortune of group or payload. It remains the tallest, heaviest, and by and large weighty rocket ever carried to operatio...

Different Types of Space Masses
All of the stars in “The size of our world” and all the stars you can see in the sky are only in our own galaxy ! What lies beyond our galaxy? It is a great miracle to know about these facts. The Hubble space telescope kept its camera pointed there for over 4 months, taking in all the light it could. The area, about a tenth the size of the full moon, appeared to be complete blackness with no st...

Fun Facts About the Space Shuttle
Finding out the length of an orbit is a very tedious task. Unless one have flown aboard the space shuttle or have seen it in person, it can be difficult to mentally visualize the size of the vehicle. Here, we measure the orbiter against a familiar object, a school bus. The weight of Orbiter would weight around 178000 pounds. The heaviest African Elephant weighs 13200 pounds. It would take appro...

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.

Looking Inside the Sun
The Sun is our nearest star. It is a huge, luminous ball of gas like all the other stars. It consists mostly of hydrogen, and helium with tiny amounts of other elements. The Corona is the outer shell of the Sun’s atmosphere. It is extremely hot with temperatures reaching up to 2 million degrees. In the radiation zone, the energy is transported outwards by radiation. It covers about 70% of the Sun’...

What are Exoplanets?
In 1543, Polish astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus published on the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres, showing that the Earth, far from being the privileged center of the universe, is just another planet orbiting the Sun. Since then, the discovery that our sun is a typical star among the billions in the Milky Way, which in turn is but one of the billions of galaxies we observe in all directions,...

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.

The Milky Way in a Diagram
Home galaxy of Earth, the Milky way is a spiral – shaped system of a few hundred billion stars. Bright regions of recently formed stars highlight its arms, while older stars explode or expel their outer layers as beautiful planetary nebulae, then fade away and die. A thick swarm of orange and red stars marks the galactic bulge, encapsulating the star-packed galactic center.

Measuring the Stars
As we cannot yet travel outside the solar system, we have to learn as much as we can about the stars by studying them at a distance. Astronomers can tell the brightness, color, and temperature of a star by analyzing the light it gives out. By splitting starlight into its constituent colors, they can find out what the stars are made of and how fast they are moving. Stars are so far awa...

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...

NASA's Future Capsule
NASA has decided that the MPCV, or Multi-purpose Crew Vehicle, will be America’s next crewed spacecraft following the retirement of the space shuttle. The MPCV program is a refocus of the Orion Crew Vehicle Program, which has been in development since 2005.
