Weather Fronts

Weather Fronts Include:
Cold Front
Warm Front
Stationary Front
Occluded Front

Cold Fronts
When warm air and cold air meet together it starts to cause clouds and the warm air goes over the cold front.So it causes weather.
Warm Front
When a warm fronts happens. The warm front will push the cold air away and the more it goes away clouds form and then weather happens.
Stationary Front
When stationary fronts meet. Its then 2 fronts go together and push each other back and forth and between them there is a storm.
Occluded Front
When occluded fronts happen its when two cold fronts meet together one pushes one up and warm air on top and a storm happens.

Acid Rain

Acid rain is strong enough to damage building.The cause of acid rain is the burning of coal, wildfires, and exost from from cars.The consequences of acid rain could damage builds and status,and harm lakes and ponds so that fish couldn't live there any more. To stop acid rain we could use hybrid cars and use solar panels for powering houses.

Earths Atmosphere

Earths atmosphere is like a shield around Earth. And so when there is a meteorite coming throw Earths atmosphere the meteorite dissolves to little rocks. Cause Earths atmosphere is like a shield, like most planets don't and moon don't have. Cause moons and planets don't have a atmosphere so when a meteorite hits a moon or planet. The meteorite would hit the moon or planet and leave and huge hole and it would be there for thousands of years.

Space Exploration

The Science of Rockets
Since the late 1950's NASA has used Atlas rockets to put probes in space and satellites around Earths' Orbit.The rocket is 58 meters high. there made up of 3 stages. First stage is Atlas,second stage is Centaur,and the third stage is payload-the satellite.

The Space Program
-History of NASA
NASA was started in 1958. It was to explore space. NASA immediately started a project to Mercury to find out if humans could survive in space. During project Gemini, NASA learned about living and working in space.
-Apollo 13
Apollo 13 was launched April 11,1970. At first it seemed that it was a smooth flight, but they lost electricity, food, and water and had to remove carbon dioxide from the ship. They landed in the Pacific Ocean near Samoa on April 17, 1970 and they lost 15kg.
-Going Back to the Moon
Since 1972 3 NASA space crafts have visited the moon. In 1990 and 1992 on its way to Jupiter the Galileo probe photographed the lunar north pole.

Exploring Space Today
People are putting robots into space. They power the robots by solar panels. So the space shuttles have videophones so the astronauts can communicate any where on the shuttle. These videophones are also linked to mission control on earth.

Using Space Science On Earth
We use cordless or chargeable tools, flammable suits, and light weight helmets are part of what we use on earth and what astronauts use in space. Plus people on earth are using space materials to make light weight athletic equipment.

Gizmo

The earths axis is pointing towards the sun at four different points there called winter, spring, summer, and fall. So in the summer time the Northern Hemisphere points to the sun and in the winter the Southern Hemisphere points toward the sun so it would be summer in the Southern Hemisphere and the sun reflectes off the Southern Hemisphere to the Northern Hemisphere.

Zoom

The book Zoom was about perspective. I thought that I know it all about the book to where it zooms out. But the book would seem like it would zoom out more, but the book would go on to a picture to fan to more stuff to where you can see the earth.Well this has to do with prospective because I thought that the picture would zoom out, but it didn't.

When people are in the dark they get really scared because their mind plays games with them. So like when people are watching a scary movie they get scared real easy and think theres stuff moving when there not. So in the day time or theres a light on they don't get scared as easy.

A person that is making and advertisement for a scary movie. That would be important to them because if a parson is in the dark watching it they might be scared and wont watch the movie.Well perspective is like a opinion so if its scientific or important a scientist might observe it soothat is why its important to be aware of perspective.

Enigma Box

When the water comes up to high.Water comes out of the enigma box.The water came out real fast and all of the water that went into the bucket. the same amount of water came out of the Enigma Box.
I think theres a tall tube shaped like a ''L''.So the water can come out of the Enigma Box.When the water comes up high it comes out fast.
The scientific uses are observing,classifucation,inferring,predict,and making models.I used these scientific uses to tell the Enigma Box by observing, and predicting. I used observing by looking at the Enigma Box. By seeing how th Enigma Box let the water out of the Enigma Box. I also used predicting by looking at the Enigma Box and predicting to see how the water came out of the Enigma Box.
The things that happened in the Enigma Box.Was that a ruber tube was like a Christian Fish. When water got got up in the Enigma Box would let water out. The water would go down because the air in the Enigma Box would pushdown on the water threw the ruber pipe then the rest of the water would come out of the Enigma Box.
