Edwin Hubble In this adventure they look will be taken at Edwin Hubble. This look will be into three major areas of his life. His personal life how he grew up‚ whether he married and had children. Also‚ an investigation will be taken to look into his background specifically how he got started in the field of astronomy. Finally‚ there will be a look into what contributions he has made to the field of astronomy. Edwin Hubble would forever change the way astronomy was understood. He would also be a

5 What is crowdsourcing? How does the site Galaxy Zoo manage crowdsourcing? Crowdsourcing is the process of obtaining needed services‚ ideas‚ or content by soliciting contributions from a large group of people‚ and especially from an online community‚ rather than from traditional employees or suppliers. While this definition from Merriam Webster is valid‚ a more specific definition is heavily debated. The process of crowdsourcing is often used to subdivide tedious work and has occurred successfully

achievements in the study of Astronomy before his death in 1953. Among those was his discovery of galaxies outside of the Milky Way‚ the expanding universe‚ and overseeing the construction of the Hale Telescope. Because of his major contributions to the study of Astronomy‚ the Hubble Space Telescope was named after him in 1990. One of Hubble’s first discoveries was that there are other Galaxies outside of our Galaxy‚ the Milky Way. In the 1920s‚ the small‚ diffuse patches in the sky were termed

“Beyond the Milky Way” “The History of the Hubble Telescope” By: Steven Radziul DeVry University Since the Age of Man and Woman‚ We have been staring up into the sky‚ wondering clearly what is out there. The stars and planets have always been our close neighbors‚ from navigation‚ to philosophy and even religion‚ the stars and planets have always been our friend. Man has stood to the highest peak staring out into the sky‚ wondering clearly to see what is out there. He has invented instruments

declared himself a Copernican. Galileo Galilei made many discoveries that changed astronomy greatly. He used the telescope to observe the sky‚ he helped find information to support the Copernican theory‚ and he made many ground breaking discoveries that furthered the world’s astronomical knowledge. Galileo Galilei is one

The second type of measurement that coincides with distance is speed. The most common devices that are used to receive speed measurements are radar guns. Georgia State University’s website‚ “Police Radar” focusses on the process of typical radar guns. Typical guns expel microwave waves off to the atmosphere while the gun is directed to hit towards a target From there‚ an object moving by who hits it sends the waves back with its modified frequency caused by the Doppler Effect (Georgia State University

Generation Space Telescope. It is currently under construction and it is hoped to be launched in October 2018. One of the biggest goals of this new technology will be to have it help us understand more distant events and objects in the universe. This could even help us understand how the first galaxies of the universe were formed. Not only would we aim to understand the formation of galaxies but we would get a better grasp in the formation of stars and planets as well. This telescope has a 21-foot mirror;

simple‚ and safe way to go to space. A trip to space was to take place every week. The program didn’t quite do this. However‚ the shuttle turned out to be the best way to carry large items into orbit. For example‚ the shuttle carried the Hubble Space Telescope into space. Taking heavy items to the ISS soon became the main job of space shuttles. Q: Without the shuttles‚ how will NASA send astronauts to the ISS? A: NASA will continue to buy rides on Russian capsules. These capsules can be used to
