The Origin of the Universe...?Genesis: the Origin of the Universe by J-M Wersinger It took time, observational evidence, and careful verification of predictions made by the Big Bang model to convince the scientific community to accept the idea of a cosmic genesis. Not only did the Big Bang model seem to give in to the Judeo-Christian idea of a beginning of the world, but it also seemed to have to call for an act of supernatural creation at some point. How else to explain the appearance of a whole universe? One of the fundamental rules of science is the impossibility of getting something from nothing. This rule appears to place the very moment of creation of the universe outside the realm of the scientific debate and force scientists to treat the existence... of the...

U09a1 Universe Review...in the cosmic microwave background back in the early universe to create the large scale structure we observe in the universe today. Dark energy, which also goes by the names of the cosmological constant or quintessence, must exist due to the rate of expansion we observe for our universe. Not only is the universe expanding, but this expansion is also accelerating so the unknown 'anti-gravity' force at work is termed 'dark energy'. Some researchers are searching for an explanation that encompasses both dark matter and dark energy. One example of such a theory uses a form of energy called a scalar field (it is a field because it has magnitude, energy and pressure, but it is...

Alternate Universe...jolted. My body quivered and shivered at the chill that ran down my spine. I opened my eyes slowly as the light shrieked through my retinas and flooded into my brain cells. Things felt weird; they looked and even smelt different. Confusion whipped itself all over me because I remembered being within the confines of my room just a few moments ago. Random images of mundane conversations with my family, the dinner that was cooked every single day, flashes from the television, my sister’s gleeful laughter; all of this felt like a downpour, yet I felt miles away from all that commotion. All of a sudden, I felt insecure and understood how badly I wanted to be in the middle of all that, that very instant.
This had to be an alternate...

The Summer My Universe Upended...The Summer My Universe Upended In 1996, I took over a small restaurant with my partner. It was only a small lunch counter in the back of a pharmacy, and it had been languishing for a few years. The food was mediocre, the service was terrible and the owner was not very accommodating.
We took over in January, and by March I had turned this tiny place into a social hub for our small island community. The first thing I did was introduce full, inexpensive hot lunches for the construction workers. I changed the menu by surveying the customers and finding out what they liked and didn't like about the menu. Over time, we began a destination for tourists, featured in several newspaper articles and magazines.
Now we shall fast...

c) In no more that 100 words explain why the way in which massive stars die is important for the chemical evolution of the universe. Massive stars fuse lighter elements into heavier elements such as helium, carbon, oxygen, and silicon. The rapid super-nova of a star bombards atomic particles and also produces new elements. This is how the universe continues to manufacture new elements and replenish existing elements.
d) In no more than 100 words explain why the end points in the life of low mass stars are important in allowing astronomers to understand the expansion history of the...

Across The Universe...Across The Universe
“Across the universe”, is a superb film, which is stunning as it is. The film opens up vistas of imagination in a way that rock and roll, and the youths have been known to do, a film that tickles a nerve for people willing to let genuine emotion and aesthetics sweep them. A good question that the film poses to the viewer is in the area of music; does the music used in the film help, in the achievement of the film’s goals? This paper looks at the kind of music found in this film and the effect that this music has over the final success of the film.
The film is a story of the 1960’s revolution and has been set to a tune of songs that defined that era. The film is brilliant for its...

The Universe...The universe 4th August The universe This paper seeks to discuss fundamentals of matter. The paper explores properties of mixtures, compounds, and bonding.
Difference between a mixture and a compound
Even though both mixtures and compounds are products of elements, they have a number of differences. One of the differences between a mixture and a compound is that a mixture can be separated by physical methods while a compound can only be separated by chemical methods. The physical methods only involve movements of the mixture’s components without any form of reaction as in separation of compounds. As a result, separation of mixtures does not change composition of the components while separation of...

Space, the amazing universe...Space, the amazing universe
Space is defined as a place where only air exists. However, science has a different explanation to the term. Scientist defer in the description of space. Substantivalists say that space is an independent object that exists all by its self as it does not contain any matter. In this case, space is independent. Religionists argue that space cannot exist as a single entity. Scientifically, space is an independent variable that does not require other entities in order to attain its full definition. The galaxy is made of objects that exist in space but do not form space itself.

Flicking a finger against the cheek makes a different sound from flicking it against the forehead. The differences in the sounds made can be attributed to the nature, structure and properties of the materials beneath the skin. In the forehead, there is a thin layer of flesh compared with what lies beneath the cheek. Thus, the soft material of the cheek produces a different sound... its density changes...

Exploring the Universe
One way my worldview has changed because of astronomy 1001 is the adjustment of my perception of the scopes of my size and role on earth relative to the cosmos. Exploring the universe has opened my eyes to the part I play on earth while alive and how it relates to the cosmos. My introduction to astronomy has allowed me to learn the true significance of the universe, its origin, and my existence in it. Images taken by telescopes from leading observatories and space agencies are proof of the magnificence that is the universe. Admitting that the cosmos make up a marvelous spectacle shows my change in the perception of reality in relation to my role in it.
I found the data that assisted in the exploration... of the...
