Favorite Topic in Earth Science

My favorite topic of Earth Science has got to be Historical Geology. This topic explains earth's history, fossils, the geologic time scale, and how to find the age of rocks. Based on their interpertations of the rock record, geologists have divided Earth's history 4.56-billion-year history into units that represents specific amounts of time. Taken together, these time spans make up the geologic time scale.

Favorite Planet Or Moon

My favorite planet has to be Jupiter. Because Jupiter is the biggest planet in our solar system and its named after the greek god Zeus but in roman he is called Jupiter. If Jupiter were hollow, more than one thousand Earths could fit inside. It also contains two and a half times the mass of all the other planets combined.

Big Bang

I think it the universe looked like a big black sheet of space with a giant bright star in the middle of space. Then all of a sudden, the star started to split in half and then the star exploded into nebulas and galaxies with planets. The universe banged becacuse it was so huge that it started to split and it blew up.

2.Radical Velocity: Measures slight changes in the position of stars. It is similar to the Doppler Effect.

3. Almost all of the known extrasolar planets have been discovered using ... been identified, and most have been detected by ... changes in its radial velocity.

Planet Pluto

In my opinion I'm undecided about if Pluto is a planet or not. People who believe and don't have good arguments and reasons about their opions of Pluto. So I don't really know.

Monsoons

1. Reversal of seasonal winds.

2. The movement northward from winter to summer of the huge upper level subtropical high pressure system, specifically known as the Bermuda High, and
the intense heating of the Mohave Desert creates rising air and surface low pressure, called a thermal low.

3. Brings rain for dry, warm in region months. Decrease in thunderstorms.

4.Causes great temperature changes over dry or tropical places. The moist air moving onto the dry land becomes unstable and develops into thunderstrorms.

5. Four days of heavy rainfall at the end of the monsoon season. The sudden rains, coming after a severe drought, deluged villages and caused widespread disruption in the states of Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka. Floodwaters are now thought to be receding, officials said, but reports have also indicated that crops are ruined, thousands of cattle dead, and hundreds of thousands of homes destroyed.

6. Depending on the region you live in monsoons can be good or bad. If the region you live has common monsoons they can be bad by causing a lot of rainfall which can cause floods.
