    How can I write a 5 page paper on the origin of the solar system?

    Prepare how you will develope your story about this momentus event. Your first page (like the first stage of development of the system) should consider the background of the materials that make up our solar system (remember to include the original star that elploded that produced the elements...

    Asteroid hits moon → moon hits Earth possible?

    Consider changing the direction of a rolling bowling ball. In order to change its direction significantly you would need to match its momentum with an object of similar momentum. A BB would need to travel well above the speed of a bullet to have an effect, but another bowling ball needs only be...

    Why most of the planetary orbits are ellipitical?

    Yes, Our star the Sun has a distinct vibration associated with the effects of planetary forces which has been measured.

    Identifying Objects in the Solar System

    Be careful with that KoolAid Eugene! I suppose it is easier to blow off evidence in the face of skepticism, but... What Earth based processes produce speroidal hematite separate in a hematite depleted layer of rock? Not any that are geologic! As a matter of fact the only processes that can...

    Why most of the planetary orbits are ellipitical?

    Not only does the Sun's gravity effect the trajectory of the planets, but the reverse is true as well. The Sun wobbles with the gravitational infuence of the planets. And as a result of this non-uniform rotation about a "central" solar-system gravitational axis, planetary motion about the Sun...

    Identifying Objects in the Solar System

    Oh, BTW, I believe that #5 is a picture of one of the other life-forms in our solar system!

    Identifying Objects in the Solar System

    On #14 the image in the corner is the "real' picture of Pluto, and the big picture is a computer enhanced digitised representation of a series of those Hubble shots (the pic in the corner is from Hubble BTW).

    Nope, #1 is a closeup of the Mars meteorite that had the "life-form" inclusions in it.

    Is the Universe Moving? Acceleration or Stationary?

    Yep, got evicted, couldn't pay the rent, darn that trickle down economy. The Universe must be moving if it follows the laws of thermodynamics, but as everyone else has stated that must be relative to something outside the universe such that you could mesure the distance and the rate of...

    Beginners Questions about Astronomy

    Let me take a shot at the first three questions. 1. You can see many things in the night sky that are not stars, but only one with the naked eye that is not of our galaxy, and that is our sister galaxy Andromeda. There are occasions that a very bright explosion will occur outside our galaxy...

    Can someone tell me what this is please?

    My understanding of the issue is that the image in that section of the photo series was corrupted data and an old map of lower resolution was used to fill in the gap. This photo is a colage of a surveyor grouping (several pictures used to make one). The same thing is done to a great extent on...

    What makes a permanent magnet a permanent magnet?

    Permanent magnets have groupings of "bodies" of alloyed materials that under pressure and elevated temperature are subjected to an intense short-duration magnetic field. Those bodies align based upon their internal magnetic potential. That potential is determined by the alignment of micro...
