The article seeks to explain the disaster that occurred in 1986 following three approaches. It was during the launch that the space challenger exploded killing a teacher and six astronauts, a disaster that if carefully looked into could have been prevented following the application of preventative ethics. The author explains that a disaster occurs when certain standards are not observed. In his first explanation for why the challenger failed, the problem was in engineering whereby certain engineering standards were violated citing the flaws in the design of the field joints, in the booster. The second problem lied in management practices of NASA ...

The United States and Soviet Union have always seen themselves together in the same sentence because they have always tried to one up the other. This scenario is one that is very real with regards the conquest of outer space. For some reason America seemed to be playing catch up as she was a step behind with regards exploring outer space and putting a man in space
Project Mercury is a program by NASA with an aim to launching the first Americans into space. During the duration of Project Mercury six flights were made by astronauts. Of that six, two came ...

The Evolution of Aircraft Performance

Introduction
Aircraft is considered one of the most significant inventions ever made in human history. As a product of brilliant imagination, it proved the possibility of flying without wings is achievable. We argue that aircraft design primarily enhance and influence its total performance that meets its designer’s crave for airspeed and quicker transportation needs. Orville and Wilbur Wright were able to design and built the world’s first human-controllable airplane, which eventually evolved and became better, faster and more innovated aircraft in a form of scramjet. From Wright brothers’ creation to the supersonic ramjet design, aircrafts performance has been ...

The national oceans and atmospheric administration is one of the most fundamental and active research organizations in America. This is because it is dealing with the one thing that no organism likes when it is hurt: the environment. Oceans are the places where animals live where the atmosphere is inclusive of the weather and the reactions of Mother Nature (Cameron, 2013). There is still more to be done especially with the current changes in the climate due to global warming. Not only are temperatures expected to increase but there will be differences in the climatic ...

Nasa in their latest mission which started on August 2012. The mission was to find out if the Planet called Mars ever had a living thing or if anything had lived on it. The journey to Mars is estimated to be more than half a billion kilometers where the Nasa space ship landed successful few kilometers from the original target. The successful landing came as exciting news to Nasa Engineers after several attempts to land on the planet failed. It is recorded that out of the 14 visits to Mars almost half of the visits failed to resend any data.

Challenger space shuttle disaster was challenger that was lost in an explosion in the year 1986 as it was taking off and led to death of seven people who were on board. The decisions that were made on that day may have been as a result of being influenced by framing on the part of NASA engineers and engineers at Morton-Thiokol (Holden, 2013).
On the fateful day the temperatures began to rise and the engineers that were responsible for building solid fuel boosters got worried. They did not want a launch with cold weather since it was danger to the ...

The incidents that led to the reported explosion and deaths of seven astronauts in the Space Shuttle Challenger were evaluated comprehensively in the article written by Ferraris and Carveth (2003) whose findings clearly revealed that groupthink evidently contributed to the disaster . On the other hand, another article written by Wells (2005) contested the allegation and instead, asserted that using the disaster of the Space Shuttle Challenger as an ironic example of groupthink which evidently falls in the same framework where the scenario was evaluated using the components and elements of groupthink
(Wells, 2005, par. 3).
Groupthink was ...

Challenger Space Shuttle Disaster

The challenger space shuttle accident occurred in January, 6, 1986 and several scholars have written on the communication problems that caused the incidence. The shuttle exploded in the air and seven crew members lost their lives. The Rogers Commission issued its findings and found that the accident occurred due to a failure in the joint in the lower segments of the right solid rocket motor. The seals that are designed to prevent the hot gases from leaking during the propellant burn of the rocket motor had been completely destroyed (Romzek & Dubnick, 2006). When O-ring anomalies began in 1984, the ...

Background

Even before the beginning of the space age, astronomers and researchers have attempted to discover whether or not there were other habitable planets like Earth in outer space; discovering other planets like Earth could ultimately answer the question of whether or not we are alone in the universe. With the advancement of aerospace technology, NASA and other organizations have begun to organize efforts to develop more concrete answers as to the possibility of life on other planets. Prior to 2009, no planets had been definitively identified outside our solar system until nearly twenty years ago (NASA Ames Research Center, ...

Lander Project: Life on Jupiter’s Europa Moon

Water is life, and scientific research has long proven this fact. Water is the most important substance that living things need in order to survive. So far, scientists have been excited to find the possibility of life on some of the planetary moons. They have used the fact that evidence of the existence of life-supporting elements such as water and oxygen to other parts of the solar system has been presented through previous research to end up with this possibility.
There could be alien life on Jupiter as shown by promising discoveries so far. The problem is that ...

Climate Changes and Ozone Depletion

The weather is changing but where and when is very unpredictable. Sometimes it is changing in slow ways but sometimes weather events are very extreme and dangerous. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in 2001 reported on the “probability of the world being three degrees Celsius hotter by the end of the century and of a distinct possibility of it being almost six degrees hotter” (Lovelock, 2008, p. vii). This is a very scary prediction Ozone depletion is a different type of problem although Henson (2008) has said that the ozone depletion problem does have some ...

- The Role of the Doppler effect in determining the rotation rates of both Mercury and Venus
The Doppler Effect describes how waves of any kind move, depending on the direction the source of the waves is moving in and the position of the observer. For example, in the diagram below, the two individuals perceive the siren’s noise differently depending on the length of the wavelength and degree of the frequency, premised on where each person is standing.

The rotational rate of Mercury cannot be determined through optical observation since the planet is ...

NASA focuses its missions on the study of space and planetary explorations. One such robotic spacecraft mission is the New Horizons which is designed to study Pluto and Charon, known as ‘double planets’ and its moons namely Nix, Hydra, S/2011 P 1 and S/2012 P 1. An extended mission of New Horizons is planned to visit more objects in the Kuiper Belt region, if an appropriate target is located beyond Neptune. The estimated arrival of the spacecraft on Pluto is in 2015. This mission will aide in understanding the icy worlds located at the edge of the solar system. ...

The sun is about 864000 miles wide and filled with sweltering hot gases. Hydrogen is the most abundant element present in the Sun, composition of the Sun by its constituent mass is 71% hydrogen (H), 27% helium (He) and 2% other heavier elements. Inside the Sun the gravitational pull compresses the gases, and increase the temperature and pressure at the core. (CAIN, F., 2009) The temperature is about 10000°F on the surface and more than 28 million degrees Fahrenheit at the core of the sun. The pressure at the core of the sun is 250 billion times the ...

- Introduction
Whilst there have been many space missions – the majority either under the auspices of the National Science and Aeronautics Administration (NASA), or the European Space Agency (ESA) or the Russian Aviation and Space Agency – famously including manned landings on the moon (NASA), the most successful mission of all time in terms of space travel must surely be the creation, construction and the successful continued existence and operation of the international Space Station (ISS). A key purpose of the ISS has been to evaluate the effects on humans of lengthy exposure to conditions in space – an essential ...

- What causes climate change? Define the Greenhouse Effect

Greenhouse gases (GHG) allow sunlight to enter the atmosphere and absorbs the heat produced by that light. Most of this heat energy is trapped within the atmosphere by the GHG while some of them are let out into the space. The phenomenon of atmospheric heating due to the GHG is called as the greenhouse effect. Gases such as carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and fluorinated gases form the greenhouse gases. Burning of fossil fuels, manufacturing processes, decay of organic matter, agricultural industries and emission of synthetic fluorinated gases from various ...

On the basis of Long's essay on administrative power and your analysis of ''The Columbia Accident,'' what specific factor can you identify that can strengthen or detract from an organization's power? Are there specific ways that administrators protect or enhance their power position? If so, how? Use the case to illustrate your views and cite example(s) from your experience.
Norton Long emphasized that power runs administration. Without power, administrators would not be able to carry out its functions properly, given that they have to observe a hierarchical setup within which power runs through. Analyzing where power would ...

The main purpose of this research paper is to discuss whether there is any proof and evidence of global climate change, as the debates about this question have been conducted until nowadays. First, it should be mentioned here that any climate change is a long-lasting considerable change in any statistical form of weather pattern`s distribution for different time periods that can vary from years and decades to thousands and millions of years. For example, it can be a change in weather conditions, or distribution of them per average conditions. It`s usually caused by different factors of biotic origin like ...

On 11 April 2012 two huge earthquakes occurred beneath the floor of the Indian Ocean, off the coast of North Sumatra. Registering a magnitude of 8.6, the first was followed by another of 8.2 magnitude, which scientists subsequently identified as an aftershock. Neither triggered a large scale tsunami, which scientists attribute to the movement being of the “strike-slip” type, rather than the “thrust” type. However, strike-slip earthquakes are normally of a ...

In the present day, many movies related to the field of Astronomy are made and seen by large audiences. However, some of them are loaded with incorrect facts about Science and Astronomical knowledge that can negatively affect their viewers. One such example is the movie Armageddon made in 1998 based on an asteroid’s collision with the Earth which is alleviated by a team of oil drillers sent by NASA who plant nuclear explosives to the asteroid so it blows up, sliding past Earth. The ...

Space travel involves sending manned and unmanned spacecrafts into the low orbits of the earth and space. Space travel has helped in the exploration of life on other planets such as Mars. Landing on the moon in 1968 was a major milestone in space travel which paved the way for manned space missions. This is a paper on space exploration. Special focus is given to the history, benefits, costs, and requirements for space travel.
Studies in space rocket development occurred in three countries simultaneously. Three scientists championed rocket engine development and these were Konstantin Tsiolkovski of Russia, Robert Goddard of ...

Stars begin their lives from molecular clouds or nebula of gases and dust. These gases and dusts exert forces to each other that make them want to move farther away from each other while at the same time there is gravity that attracts them together into a small space within the nebula. The chemistry which starts the star’s life begins when gravity starts winning in the war between the two aforementioned opposing forces. As gravity pulls the dust and clouds together it begins to accumulate mass and a swirling motion typical to a spinning disc. At its center are dusts (NH3, ...

Electricity and magnetism will propel the future transportation system, and it will make our travel safe, smooth, but faster than other conventional transport system. The new transportation technology is magnetic levitation or Maglev, and in this transportation technology, the train remains suspended and move in the air freely without any support but, under a strong electromagnetic field. The speed of maglev vehicles can be between 300 to 500 kmph. The technology is based on the familiar property of magnets that the opposite poles attract and same poles repel. For example, the north pole of a magnet will attract the South Pole of ...

Since the beginning of mankind, people have looked to the stars and space in amazement. It has been the inspiration for people to think about the origins and ends of life, or just marvel in its beauty. As technology has increased in the twenty first century, our wonder has turned from a distanced admiration to a more close and nuanced study and understanding of what surrounds us. One of the most beautiful and fascinating objects in space is a star. Just like anything else in the universe, stars eventually succumb to their own deaths and exhaust their energy, emitting a bright explosion known ...

The energy from the sun is collected in two methods. The Photovoltaic method (Knier,2002), which is a semiconductor technology that converts the light energy into electricity, has been usually used. The energy from the sun can also be controlled through heat absorption. This thermal energy is then used immediately or is stored for later uses. The use of solar energy is encouraged because its use leads to a reduction in over reliance of fossil fuel to produce energy. This in turn leads to reduced energy bill costs and carbon dioxide emissions. By using solar energy, the average household reduces the ...

How can funds be used elsewhere?

Introduction:
The Space Programme in the United States has always been important although one cannot observe any real benefits especially in the last years when the Space Shuttle programme came to an end in a rather ignoble manner.
With funding of 18 billion dollars a year, the Space programme is surely one of the most deleterious and wasteful regarding the whole country budget. Notwithstanding all this there have been considerable benefits in the past especially with the programme on the moon and suchlike but still, funding could certainly be used elsewhere with much more profitable results.
If funds ...

Every commercial aircraft is fundamentally designed for safety, passenger acceptance, fuel efficiency and airport compatibility among other important features. Numerous challenges face all current passenger aircrafts, for instance the conventional wing consists of a number of moving parts which increase the weight of the plane and are difficult to adjust and maintain. The current control surfaces also increase turbulence and drag since the smooth flow of air is disrupted, and the aircraft cannot adapt to different flight stages and conditions. Design architectures such as the vertical and horizontal stabilizer surfaces increase the overall drag of the plane, for example, the ...

The engineering field is one of the fields characterized by various contracts; these contracts basically act as binding agreements between Engineers and their clients. Episode 5, of the documentary, “From the Earth to the Moon”, begins by a scene where Grumman Aircraft Engineering is awarded a contract under the leadership of Tom Kelly to design and build an aircraft vehicle that man could use as the source of transport to the moon. This scene is pertinent to engineers or persons interest in the engineering field as it ascertains the pertinence of contracts. It is an indication of the extent of importance ...

Abstract

Experts tell that the twentieth century was the century of brutal man-made natural and environmental disasters. Often, we hear reports about falling missiles, planes, explosions on environmentally hazardous industrial objects, about the collapse of buildings. The main reasons of these tragedies are design errors related to insufficient knowledge of the laws of mechanics with the incorrect use of mathematical models. To prevent new disasters, we just need to look into the past and draw conclusions on the basis of the occurred accidents.

Isaac Newton’s story of how an apple falling from a tree that hit his head inspired him to formulate a theory of gravitation is one that all school children grow up hearing about. Newton is arguably one of the most influential scientific minds having ever lived. He has published books such as Arithmetica Universalis, The Chronology of Ancient Kingdoms, Methods of Fluxions, Opticks, the Queries, and most famously, Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica. He formulated the three laws of gravitation, discovered the generalized binomial theorem, developed infinitesimal calculus (sharing credit with Gottfried Wilhelm Von Leibniz, who developed the theory independently) and ...

In the near future computer software and machines will completely change how human beings operate by either replacing or enhancing the capabilities of some of the tasks previously considered to be strictly in human beings’ domain. In the past, fatal accidents in general aviation have been caused by loss awareness surrounding weather events due to the use of traditional methods of predicting meteorological patterns. Recent research and developments in artificial intelligence has proved that human beings can accomplish a lot by utilizing this technology and overall air travel could become much more safe and ...

A telescope is a device that makes it possible to view distant and faint objects as though they were near (Telescope, 2009). The discovery of the telescope and subsequent improvement in technology has gone a long way to transforming the way we view the universe. Telescope helps in viewing distant planets, stars, and heavenly bodies. To understand the mechanisms of operation of a radio telescope, it is important to initiate by taking a look at its discovery as well as the events that potentially led to the discovery. The essay will take a look at how the discovery and improvement in telescope have transformed ...

The Gini coefficient is a measure used to detect the degree of inequality that prevails in the income or wealth distribution of a country. The method was developed by Corrado Gini, an Italian statistician. He published a paper titled “Variability and Mutability", in the year 1912, in which he proposed this measure that calculates the inequality of income distribution through a scale between zero and one. If the Gini coefficient is zero, it implies that the citizens of the particular country/region have a similar level of income. On the other hand, if it is one that means that the country has an ...

1.0 Lab 1: Heating Value Measurements: Solid and Liquid Fuels with a Bomb Calorimeter
1.1 Introduction
Measurements of heating values can be derived for both solid and liquid combustible fuels using an Oxygen Bomb Calorimeter. The calorimeter measures heat. Heat is not the same thing as temperature. The heat of combustion is called the calorific value. The calorific value is “:the number of heat units liberated by a unit mass of a sample when burned with oxygen in an enclosure of constant volume” (Introduction 2007). The experiment uses the 6100 Bomb Calorimeter. The definition of calorific value in a bomb calorimeter ...

The statement that water vapor is a more important fact in global warming than carbon dioxide is a myth. To support my claim, I have listed several reasons or evidences from different sources to prove that water vapor is not more important than carbon dioxide in global warming.
My first argument is that carbon dioxide builds up over time while water vapor stays in the atmosphere for just a few days. For example, the article The Importance of Aircraft Emission in Climate Change posted in Environmental News Network stated that ...

ABSTRACT

At no other time in the history of the planet has the impact of human activity affected the natural order of the planet. Humans account for the increase in global warming. In turn, global warming occurring at such a rapid rate leaves scientists scrambling determining how the future looks for all living creatures including humans. Statistics exist today, and predictions exist for tomorrow. However, changes in the climate, chemical effects on the oceans, the air, and changes in the planet's ecosystems continue and the rapid increase in global warming are still unfolding affecting plants, animals, and people as discussed in ...

Water and Its Unique Properties

Water is has a unique physical and chemical properties which are essential to life and to the earth processes such as climate change. Water molecules generally consist of one oxygen atoms and two hydrogen atoms. However the atoms do not share equal electrons thereby making water slightly charged—exhibits polarity. Water molecules interact with other water molecule through a weak hydrogen bond. Hydrogen bonds allow water to interact also with other polar substances. Water is known as the universal solvent. Thus, it has the capacity to dissolve various polar substances like ammonia and nonpolar substances such as methane (Freudenrich, 2011).

The United States’ history in the participation of space race has been a popular phenomenon. Their participation within space activities other than in the achievement of hopes and dreams of for a limited number, started with the Eisenhower decision of supporting earth satellite projects which are inclusive of the geophysical scope. The participation became scientific and one of the noncompetitive ones as all others is expected to be. In simpler words, even though one of the scientific groups might discover considerably important scientific facts, such a discovery could be more of a credit to the individual as compared to the nationalistic competition(Kuhn ...

Our scientific understanding of the vastness of the universe and the relative insignificance of Earth and human civilization on a galactic scale increases every day. The first planet outside our solar system was discovered in 1992, and since then, hundreds have been found. A study done at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in 2011, for example, estimated that the Milky Way Galaxy alone should contain about 2 billion Earth-like planets. If this estimate is accurate, then the statistical likelihood that at least one, if not more, has also evolved life, possibly even intelligent life, is higher than ever before. How ...

Introduction

Mankind has made significant discoveries throughout history; some had dramatic changes, which can still be perceived in today’s modern times. However, some historical accounts made not only a significant contribution to the development of human civilization, but also extended the boundaries of mankind’s frontier.

1. Wildfire risk assessment using Geographic Information System (GIS) is an essential tool for tracking the increasing number of fires around the world. NASA has updated maps available daily on its Earth Observatory website. The terrible July 2012 wildfire in Colorado was first reported on June 23 in Pike National Forest. The TERRA satellite was able to track the movements of the fire from space. It is hard to track a fire from the ground because a fire moves wherever the wind pushes it. Even today the map is available at http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov which shows the burn area of the fire. The ...

There are skeptics who suggest that the global warming phenomenon is grossly exaggerated, turning the attention of possible government backing or funding away from the movements that are working against its possible worldwide effects (Houghton, 2007). Nevertheless, the fact that the planet is getting warmer is undeniable. NASA (Voiland, 2010) reports that the previous decade, from 2000 to 2009, is the warmest the earth ever experienced in its history. Since 1880, the time when temperature can be accurately measured, the average global temperature has increased by 0.8 degrees Celsius.
According to The Guardian (Houghton, 2007), over the recent ...
