Sub-Orbital Space Flights & Satellite Exploration
Did you know the Space Shuttle needs to travel Mach 22 to escape the earth’s gravity? Do you know what a knot is? Do you know how fast the International Space Station is going around the earth? These are just some of the questions and facts packed into iLiveMath Speed (latest in the iLiveMath Series). In honor of the Space Shuttle program which is being retired this year and all those that dare to speed… iLiveMath Speed is coming soon to an iTunes App Store near you. Teach math, reading, and science. Basic to Advanced mathematics include addition, subtraction, and multiplication. Reading comprehension and science concepts include mph, km/h, knots, Mach, speed of sound, Supersonic, Hypersonic, etc..

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.

By scrutinising the Hubble Ultra Deep field — the deepest image of the sky ever made — the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope and the NASA Spitzer Space Telescope have joined forces to discover nine of the smallest, faintest, most compact galaxies ever observed in the distant Universe.

The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) is a space telescope that was carried into orbit by the space shuttle in April 1990. It is named after the American astronomer Edwin Hubble. Although not the first space telescope, Hubble is one of the largest and most versatile, and is well-known as both a vital research tool and a public relations boon for astronomy. The HST is a collaboration between NASA and the European Space Agency, and is one of NASA’s Great Observatories, along with the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory, the Chandra X-ray Observatory, and the Spitzer Space Telescope.[4]

Carl Sagan discusses what the chemistry of life would be like on other planets; he also discusses the chemistry of life on Earth. This clip is from Carl Sagan’s Cosmos episode 5, “Blues for a Red Planet.”

A supernova (pl. supernovae) is a stellar explosion that is more energetic than a nova. Supernovae are extremely luminous and cause a burst of radiation that often briefly outshines an entire galaxy, before fading from view over several weeks or months. During this short interval a supernova can radiate as much energy as the Sun is expected to emit over its entire life span.[1] The explosion expels much or all of a star’s material[2] at a velocity of up to 30000 km/s (a tenth the speed of light), driving a shock wave[3] into the surrounding interstellar medium. This shock wave sweeps up an expanding shell of gas and dust called a supernova remnant.

Ted Simons interviews a shining star in the universe of astrophysics, Neil degrasse Tyson. The author and host of PBS NOVA sciencenow talks about what sparked his interest in the cosmos. Ted also asks what Tyson has against Pluto, the celestial body that was discovered at Flagstaff’s Lowell Observatory. Ripped this video from AZPBS to make it more public. The video was by no means easy to access so it would only be appropriate to make it more accessible.
