Sub-Orbital Space Flights & Satellite Exploration
Near space photographic weather balloon. In conjunction with Mr. Clapper’s Honors Chem class, and Mr. mccauley, we expanded on a recent MIT experiment and send a weather balloon into near space equipped with a camera (that the electronics students hacked into to take time laps photos), and real time gps tracking. We were able to take photos of near space and the curvature of the earth *End story for the space balloon- After about 58 minutes of flight time the balloon landed in Hickory, about an hour and a half away by car. We were able to track the landing using the gps on the cheap track phone and used Google Map to se photos of the yard where the balloon had landed. We drove out to find the owner of the property not home and the balloon 75 ft up in a tree in his back yard. We fashioned a long pole (12 ft?) out of pool cues, meter sticks, and duct tape we had in the car and I climbed up the tree with the pole. We were unable to retrieve it on the first attempt and had to drive out to a hardware store to buy a hook to tape to the end of the pole. We retrieved the balloon without the resident ever knowing we were there or that many Christ School students had been looking at his back yard via Google Earth.

The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has captured a new image of the galaxy NGC 1132 which is most likely to be a “cosmic fossil” — the aftermath of an enormous multi-galactic pile-up, where the carnage of collision after collision has built up a brilliant but fuzzy giant elliptical galaxy far outshining typical galaxies. … Hubble ngc1132 universe origin space astronomy humanities computer science media math physical communications Computer Electronics Environment Gadget Mechanics Aviation …

With the Tyent Rettin MMP-5050, Enagic SD-501, and Jupiter Aquarius models side-by-side, using the same water source and waterflow pressure, the Tyent alkalinity output had the highest tested result of 10.05 pH level along with -148 ORP.

Ever wonder where those ever so bright tiny little flashes of light come from when you have your eyes closed in the dark? They last a ever so short time, but are amazingly beautful. What you have seen is a proton collide with something inside of your eye. No not with the eye itself. Something within the fluid of the eye was slammed into. Yes, we live in the largest their will ever be particle collider just be being alive any place in the universe. Mother Nature packs so muc more power and …
