Number of satellites in space

Image
Since the launch of Sputnik, thousands of satellites have been blasted off into space. Some of these satellites have crashed back into  the atmosphere , others have escaped the Earth orbit and are flying off into the Solar System. But most are still orbiting the Earth. So, how many satellites in space? All of the objects in space, whether they’re dead satellites, live satellites, or just pieces of space junk, are tracked by the US Space Surveillance Network. This group is able to predict when pieces of space junk are expected to re-enter the Earth’s atmosphere, and can detect new man-made objects that enter Earth orbit. This agency also informs NASA when a piece of space debris is moving on a trajectory that might be hazardous for the space shuttle or International Space Station. The Space Surveillance Network has tracked a total of more than 24,500 objects in space. And of those, it’s currently watching about 8,000 objects currently in orbit. So, you could say that there...

It was just a single purpose deriving new successful purposes. It was some kind of primitive society who got gradually integrated with what she had gained from books and life. And they are still advancing ,but their time together seems it's going to end. Everything they experienced it will be just some unforgottable memories. Each one of us has a way to choose, but alone! We won't be together again, but we will remember where we started our paths as a unity. I'm sure that only a few of you can decrypt all this by far and I'm sure one day everyone will get it perfectly . It has been a great time together! > All the bests, * Mature * 2013 ( Altin Guberi :)...

Gjithkushi , Dikushi , Secili dhe Askushi

Kjo është historia e 4 vetëve që quheshin Gjithkush , Dikush , Secili dhe Askush Kishin një punë të rëndësishme për të bërë dhe të gjithë ishin të sigurt se Dikush do ta bënte atë... Secili duhej ta bënte por Askush nuk e bëri... Dikush u zemërua se ajo ishte puna e Secilit... Secili mendonte se Gjithkush mund ta bënte , por Askush nuk e bëri Përfundoi që Gjithkush fajësoi Dikushin , sepse Askush nuk e bëri atë që Secili duhej të bënte...

How do movies or television influence people's behavior?

The television and movies have a considerable influence on the behavior of many different people. The sources mentioned above have different effects on people which mean they can affect people by educating or miseducating them. People must be conscientious when they choose their favourite programmes. Many Tv programmes can contain many violent scenes such as : rapes, brutal assassinations,hittings or assaults. It's advisable for these people not to watch these type of programmes. It's highly recommended instead that people must watch usually only programmes which contain allowable contents. In this category, there are not included pornographic or racist movies, harassments contents and extreme thriller scenes. Alternatively, people can watch many popular and reputable shows on their televisions. Now let's analyse in detail the effects of movies on humans. Eighty percent of movies are obviously not real and most of their scenes are perf...

Not everything that is learned is contained in books.

As it's topic title says, there are several thousand sources besides books from which we can learn almost everything we want to know. Definitely books are not the only learning source. In fact, they can just be considered simply as a basic source. Alternatively, there are several sources which can be probably even more useful and practic on learning out things to us. To begin with, daily conversations or events can lead people to learning new things. A proverb says ' you can only learn about the education at school, while you will recognize your life only on your path ' . Now days, people are searching for easier ways of learning, calculating and researching topics they are interested in learning. By doing that, which is affordable and much quicker than going through pages one to one, people can gain new knoledges about what they are interested in. So, they prefer learning from internet now rather than from books. Another reason is tha...

NASA Curiosity Rover Team Selects Second Drilling Target on Mars

PASADENA, Calif. -- The team operating NASA's Curiosity Mars rover on Mars has selected a second target rock for drilling and sampling. The rover will set course to the drilling location in coming days. This second drilling target, called "Cumberland," lies about nine feet (2.75 meters) west of the rock where Curiosity's drill first touched Martian stone in February. Curiosity took the first rock sample ever collected on Mars from that rock, called "John Klein." The rover found evidence of an ancient environment favorable for microbial life. Both rocks are flat, with pale veins and a bumpy surface. They are embedded in a layer of rock on the floor of a shallow depression called "Yellowknife Bay." This second drilling is intended to confirm results from the first drilling, which indicated the chemistry of the first powdered sample from John Klein was much less oxidizing than that of a soil sample the rover scooped up before it began drilling. ...

NASA'S Hubble Space Telescope Finds Dead Stars 'Polluted' With Planet Debris

WASHINGTON -- NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has found the building blocks for Earth-sized planets in an unlikely place-- the atmospheres of a pair of burned-out stars called white dwarfs. These dead stars are located 150 light-years from Earth in a relatively young star cluster, Hyades, in the constellation Taurus. The star cluster is only 625 million years old. The white dwarfs are being polluted by asteroid-like debris falling onto them. Hubble's Cosmic Origins Spectrograph observed silicon and only low levels of carbon in the white dwarfs' atmospheres. Silicon is a major ingredient of the rocky material that constitutes Earth and other solid planets in our solar system. Carbon, which helps determine properties and origin of planetary debris, generally is depleted or absent in rocky, Earth-like material. "We have identified chemical evidence for the building blocks of rocky planets," said Jay Farihi of the University of Cambridge in England. He is lead author...
