Why don't we just crash all the waste that we made into the sun? It sounds a really good idea to take all the nuclear waste or any waste into the sun, right? The truth is it is harder to crash into the sun than to go to Pluto! Ask how? Reason #1 Well, this all has to do with the fact that the earth is spinning at a speed of 1000 miles per hour (1600 kilometers per hour). So, if you want to get to the sun, you have to go 1000 miles backward and then go to the sun. Just to show you how fast 1000 miles per hour, it is about 16.67 miles per second! So, get to get to the sun, you need to go 16.67 miles per second backward, and then go to the sun. That's why missions to the sun first went to Jupiter and then came to the sun.  Reason #2 Not only is it hard to get to the sun because of the spin of the earth but also because it is very dangerous to put all the nuclear waste into a spaceship because spaceships have a tendency to blast when lunching and if it explodes in ...

Hello Astronomy Enthusiasts, Like I said in my last blog post that I am going to write about what I know about things in astronomy. Today, I am going to tell you about Black Holes, an interesting topic which I love and hope you will too. What are Black Holes? Basically, Black Holes are things that bend space-time extremely and create an area that nothing escapes. Like not even light! The last spot you can be as close to the black hole and not be caught is called the event horizon. It's kind of like a border to the black hole. To understand what it is, you need to know what space-time is. Since objects with gravity bend space-time, black holes bend space-time too. not like the sun or the earth. Million times of our sun. Since the black holes are really huge in gravity the holes bend space-time in an extreme order and it's like putting a bowling ball on a soft, thin sheet of fabric. because of this anything that goes in can't come out because anything is not strong enou...

Hi everyone who is reading this blog, Today in my post, I am going to talk about what my family did during Hurricane Harvey that happened in Houston, TX, USA. Hurricane Harvey was really devastating for the people in Houston but luckily, we didn't get affected. But, It was really scary because on the memorial day flooding in 2015, our house got flooded and the bed in my room got socked in water. The memorial day flooding was much smaller than the Hurricane Harvey flooding. To make sure that we are safe, we took all the stuff laying around on the floor and kept them in the closet. We also moved all the tables and mattresses to the room farthest away from the flood-prone area. I was really scared and there were also these constant tornado warnings that kept going off. At first, we were really scared but after like the 5th warning, it was to the point where we started to expect them, and eventually, we just ignored them. The rain just poring together for like 5 days continually. Th...

My winter trip to San Antonio Happy New year to everyone Today is the day that I came back from San Antonio. On Dec. 28, we started on a trip to San Antonio    It was a 3 hour trip from here. On the way, we passed the Main Event Entertainment And we headed to my friend's house in San Antonio He had this really cool thing that kind a surprised me. It was that he had a howerboard But, he wouldn't give it to me  And then, we all went to the Main Event Entertainment. There, we played the arcade games and came back home and slept. The next day was the most boring est day in the trip. We went to the Alamo There is littering nothing there and we went to some other place. That day, we went to Main Event again to play the bowling and laser tag, But, It was closed. So, we went to the movie Moana. It was a good Movie but, the day was really boring. the next day, we went to altitude and Main Event again. Altitude was the most fun. Main Even...
