Mars’ Structure

The neighboring planet of the earth mars shows similarities to the earth as well. The planet, like the earth, has brilliant white caps at its poles that change with Martian seasons. White poles are covered with Martian seasons. White poles are covered with dry ice or dry co2 which melts in summer uncovering a surface or rocks and forms again in winter.

There are high mountains, deep craters, enormous volcanoes and deserts. There are high mountains, deep craters, enormous again in winter. There are dried – up river beds, showing mars was warmer and wetter and have plenty of water and have the dried up river beds were observed by a rich amateur interpreted them as water carrying canals built by an advanced Marian civilizations.

Percival Lowell thought that mars were inhabited and the canals took water from the polar caps to dry farm land.All his observations turned out to be optical illusion. The young mars were fully molten for a short time during the formation of the solar system. The rabid solidification of the mars prevented heavier materials like iron, to sink to the bottom. This made mars core smaller than those of the other rocky planets.

First Astronaut

Like the first satellite, the first human to travel in space was a Russian. His name was Yuri Gagarin. An army major, the 27 – year – old Gagarin blasted off from the Soviet Union in his Vostck I space – craft on April 12, 1961. The overstock I was a sphere 2.3 meters (7.5 fit) in diameter coated with heat – resistant material.

A small instrument unit behind the sphere jettisoned (cast off) before re – entry contained gas bottles to provide air for the consonants as well as electrical batteries and retro rockets. Before – entries the atmosphere overstock 1 high. Gagarin was ejected from the spacecraft after re entry and he parachuted safely to the earth. Bigger chutes opened on Vostok I carryings the space craft to a gentle landing. From blast – off to loading Gagarin’s mission lasted 108 minutes.

Comet

Earth mostly regarded the comets as messengers of destruction and rarely as bringers of good or prosperity, while the scientists today think they might have played a key role in the formation of our planet and view them as carriers of possible information about the galaxy. Comets have been the most feared and admired sky spectacles of all. But while astronomers have been able to predict eclipses for thousands of years, only in the 1700s was a comet's return correctly predicted, by Edmond Halley. The comets that pass close to the Sun originally came from one of two places that either the Oort cloud or the Kuiper Belt. You can think of the Oort cloud as a giant spherical shell surrounding the Sun that's filled with about 1 million comets. In the early 1930 an Estonian astronomer proposed a structure formed of billions of comets which lie beyond the Kuiper belt. However, the theoretical structure one light year in radius equivalent to a quarter of the distance to the nearest star to the Sun, Proxima Centauri, has not been detected yet.

Present day Spain came to be inhabited

When the Phoenicians, an ancient seafaring race, first visited Spain in order to trace, they discovered that the country was overrun with swarms of rabbits. Because of this they called the land Stephanie which means literally land of rabbits. The earliest inhabitants of Spain, the cave dwellers, left marvelous and vivid paintings on the walls of caves. But it was probably later, in about 2500 B.C. that the liberation's, who gave their names to the Liberian of Spain for the next two thousand years, although at one time Phoenicians and Greeks set up trading posts in the south. At this time carthage was engaged in a long to the Romans and from the end of the 2nd Punic war in 201 B.C. Rome started to gain control over the country.

Stars

The giant clouds of gas and dust, called nebula are the sites of star formation. The stellar formation, as the star formation is referred to, is due to compression waves which travel around the galaxy, or the shock waves from the supernova explosion.

Eventually the pro-star starts in its center and it begin its independent existence as a true star. It is now called a T. Taurus type star and release energy produced as a result of nuclear fusion. The rest of the clouds are blown away. Most stars, like the sun, spend their life quietly converting hydrogen to helium in its core. The pressure at the center keeps the star expanded. This is a stable period in a star’s life. It is called main sequence star. The star’s luminosity increase, i.e., it gives out more energy as its core becomes denser and hotter.

Worst Scandal

The worst drug scandal in Olympics history occurred when Ben Johnson was sent to home from the 1988 Seoul Olympics in disgrace. The Canadian was also been stripped of his hundred meters gold medal after testing positive for drugsScandal.

Samples of Johnson’s urine were tested immediately after the hundred meter final which he won on a world record time of 9.79 seconds. Olympics officials also confirm that traces of the anabolic steroid, stanozol, had been detected. Though Johnson first denied it, he later confessed that he had been taking drugsscandal to improve his performance.

Phoenicians

For a thousand years (1400 – 400 B.C) a collection of people called Phoenicians played a great part in history. They lived in harbors on the coast of what is now Syria and Lebanon. They were a Semitic people and descended like the Hebrews from the Greek word phonons which in about 2000 B.C and built towns on the word. Phoenicia ion history began in about 1600 B.C. Their most famous town’s foreign rule or influences are Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Persia, Macedon, and Rome. But for them commerce was more important than politics. Love of profit and adventure guided their study ships they sailed round Africa, passed through the Pillars of Hercules to the Atlantic and reached the shores of Britain. They mined tin in the silly isles. Where ever they went they traded – in timber, salves, spices, amber, and gems, copper.
