the Universe” that explain how the age of the universe could be related to life. Then for my second point of the exoplanet, we may find that supports our alien hypothesis, Article “NASA Telescope Reveals Largest Batch of Earth-Size, Habitable-Zone Planets Around Single Star” from 2017 is the best one to explain the life are possible in space. Next, I moved to my point three of Government’s secret about Aliens, at this point I read Edgar, Mitchell email “Email for John Podesta C/o Eryn Re Space Treaty
discover Earth-size planets in or near the habitable zone and determine how many of our galaxy’s billions of stars have such planets. Results from this mission will allow the placing of our solar system within the continuum of planetary systems in the galaxy. The scientific objective of the Kepler Mission is to explore the structure and diversity of planetary systems. This is achieved by surveying a large sample of stars to: 1) Determine the abundance of terrestrial and larger planets in or near the habitable
indicate that oil, the precious black gold, will run out as early as 2060 (Boss). Conditions will only get worse because of inevitable population growth as well; our planet will eventually run out of space. The Earth’s resources are not infinite, therefore as the fate of the human race is contemplated, the search for a new life supporting planet is the highest priority for space exploration. Currently, over 7 billion people populate the earth with an average population growth
covered inner and outer planets, planets and their orbits, characteristics of planets, detecting extrasolar planets, and orion nebula. The planetary orbits animation showed me how the planets are arranged in distance from the sun and how fast they move. From this activity, I learned that planets that are closer to the sun move faster and have a shorter orbital period. For this reason, Mercury moves the fastest and has the shortest orbital time compared to all other planets! In the next animation,
detect planets that orbit stars other than the Sun (called exoplanets), since recently astronomers detected seven earth-sized planets orbiting a star that is 40 light years away. In my astronomy class, we learned the three techniques astronomers use to detect exoplanets. The first two techniques are an indirect method and the third one is a direct method. The direct method is by taking a picture of the exoplanet. The direct detection of an extrasolar planet means measuring light from the planet itself
of Americans throughout the nation that believe in life on other planets while only 35 percent reject the idea. Life on other planets exists. According to the article “Aliens among Us” by Paul, David extraterrestrial evidence has already been discovered such as different types of bacteria and even water. The article “Aliens among Us” is a credible source because it has many explanations and possibilities on how life on other planets can easily be real. Extraterrestrial life can be many things such
demonstrate how Map Reduce in a distributed environment readily and easily allows us to take several measurements that describe the empirical data and to answer several questions like, for example, stars that are like our sun, and how many Earth-like planets have been observed. This project has been done as part of the coursework for the course Distributed Computing. After applying the Map Reduce and Hadoop techniques to the planetary database, and to the star database, we realize that bringing a large
definition of an exoplanet, also called extrasolar planet, is any planetary body that orbits a star outside of our solar system (Encyclopedia Britannica). In a Scientific manner, an official definition of exoplanets may be at this point unjustified since the situation is still evolving and that any definitive definition is likely to be too rigid to adapt to new discoveries (Schnieder et al. 2011). Prior to the 1990’s, it was not possible to detect planets with certainty beyond our Solar System due
Exoplanets are planets that orbit a star outside of our own solar system. However, over the past two decades, thousands of exoplanets have been discovered (Howell, 2015). NASA’s Kepler space telescope, in particular, is responsible for most of these discoveries. Since its launch in March 2009, the Kepler space telescope has discovered over a thousand alien planets—more than half of all known exoplanets to date (Wall, 2015, para. 1). According to the Planetary Society (n.d.), planets only possess,
been seeking to find an earth-like habitable planet. This search especially rose in importance in the 21st century when we were faced with intensifying problems of resource scarcity and environmental deterioration which directly influence our being on earth. In order to investigate regions in the Milky Way to discover Earth-sized exoplanets in and approximate to a habitable zone, NASA sent Kepler, a Discovery-class mission spacecraft to identify planets in the Habitable Zone of main sequence stars
