At an even deeper and more important level, the revolution in Earth and space science education is essential for our future an Earth-science literate citizenry is essential to inform political, economic decisions of local, national and global impact.BARSTOW, Daniel...
What does heliocentric mean? What is an ellipse in astronomy? How did the heliocentric theory impact the Scientific Revolution? Who proved Copernicus' heliocentric theory? What are some findings that confirm the Copernican principle? What is the difference between heliocentric and geocentric?
As he worked out the equations for his general theory of relativity, Einstein realized that massive objects caused a distortion in space-time. Imagine setting a large object in the center of a trampoline. The object would press down into the fabric, causing it to dimple. If you then attempt...
The production of the phases depends on the Earth-moon-sun geometry and on the revolution motion of the moon around the Earth. Moving towards the east, our satellite rises later every day, and this is the reason why we see it in different positions at the same time. Approximately every da...

Although the technical conditions,the time and the cost of sequencing genomes were reduced by a factor of 1 million in less than 10 years, the revolution lags behind. We believe that quantum computing could give a significant push to the area: faster sequencing, as well as a more comprehensiv...
Quantum computing is an emergent field of cutting-edge computer science harnessing the unique qualities of quantum mechanics to solve problems beyond the ability of even the most powerful classical computers. The field of quantum computing contains a range of disciplines, including quantum hardware and...
