IMAX: Cosmic Voyage HD pt 4/4 (Narrated by Morgan Freeman)

Posted by SpaceMan in Hubble Space Telescope on 10 3rd, 2010 | no responses

Explore the Universe from its tiniest particle to its greatest expanse. Cosmic Voyage begins on Earth, firmly grounded in human perspective, and asks a fascinating question: Where exactly do we stand in the vastness of the cosmos? Where, between quark and quasar, is our place in space and time? You depart from Venice, where Galileo first demonstrated the use of the telescope. In 26 “”powers of ten”" stages, you ascend through our solar system and the Milky Way to the outer edges of the observable universe. Returning to Earth, you enter a drop of water and descend through sixteen ever-diminishing circles to the universe’s tiniest particle, a quark. The film features a “”cosmic zoom”" as viewers are transported across millions of years as galaxies collide, the solar system forms and life begins on a young planet Earth.

Cosmic Visions: New Space Science Missions

Posted by SpaceMan in Hubble Space Telescope on 09 12th, 2010 | no responses

Please join us on Facebook for the latest science news and videos: tinyurl.com Cosmic Visions: New ESA Space Science Missions Move Forward. Under its Cosmic Vision initiative, the European Space Agency has selected three medium-sized science missions to enter the definition phase. Spacecraft to study dark energy, Earth-like exoplanets and our own Sun now have to prove that they can be built within the allocated budgets. 2011, just two of them will be retained to go forward for launches no earlier than 2017. This movie describes the three missions Euclid, Plato and Solar Orbiter. — Please subscribe to Science & Reason: • www.youtube.com • www.youtube.com • www.youtube.com • www.youtube.com — Since the early ’60s, ESA has excelled in pushing back the frontiers in space science: exploring the nearest planets and the most distant celestial bodies of our solar system; lifting the veil with powerful telescopes on galaxy and star formation and probing the most violent processes in the Universe; and better understanding its evolution since the Big Bang. The three selected missions are the finalists from some 50 proposals which were whittled down to just six in late 2007 and submitted for industrial assessment. In February, the Agency’s Science Programme Committee pared down the choice once more. The project called Euclid will investigate key issues in physics, cosmology and general relativity. Until about 30 years ago astronomers thought the Universe was composed of ordinary …

This is a sample video of apowerpoint presentation that can be found at www.sciencepowerpoint.com which is one part of a teaching unit for students in grades 5-10. Each second represents one slide on the actual Powerpoint Presentation. THE ASTROFE covers Earth System History and Astronomy Topics. This unit includes an interactive and engaging Powerpoint Presentation of 909 slides with built in class notes (Red Slides), lab activities, project ideas, discussion questions, assessments (Quiz Wiz), and challenge questions with answers. Text is in large print (32 font) and is placed at the top of each slide so it can seen and read from all angles of a classroom. Also included is a 13 page assessment (THE ASTROFE) that chronologically goes with the slideshow for nightly homework and the end of the unit assessment, as well as a 10 page modified assessment. 12 pages of class notes with images are also included for students who require modifications, as well as answer keys to both ASTROFE’s for support professionals, teachers, and home school parents. 39 video shorts (FLV files) are provided and a slide within the slideshow cues teacher / parent when the videos are most relevant to play. Video shorts usually range from 2-7 minutes and are included in organized folders. Two Powerpoint Jeopardy games are included. Answers to the Powerpoint Jeopardy games are also provided in Powerpoint form so students can self-assess. Lastly, several class games such as guess the hidden picture …
