Join us for another awesome Maker Hour at Tiger! There are planets around many other stars besides the Sun, and like our planets some of them have water on them, and organic molecules like methane, but we don't know yet whether there is anything alive on them. In honor of OSIRIS-REx—NASA’s newest asteroid mission—we explore the policy and history of near-Earth Objects: why NASA explores them, how the government plans to find and defending the planet, and the how policy can keep up with ambitious plans to mine asteroids.

With the use of a telescope, you would be able to see them as crescents along with some detail on both surfaces of these worlds. Fortunately, a time warp shortcut can speed time up by 100,000 if you don't want to wait the three days or so it would take for a Lunar mission or months in the case of a trip to the outer planets. To make sure the instruments are accurate various targets are used to calibrate each. A particularly important early development was the beginning of mathematical and scientific astronomy, which began among the Babylonians, who laid the foundations for the later astronomical traditions that developed in many other civilizations. [15] The Babylonians discovered that lunar eclipses recurred in a repeating cycle known as a saros. [17] Following the Babylonians, significant advances in astronomy were made in ancient Greece and the Hellenistic world.

The data showed a string of monstrous, super-hot blobs, each with a temperature of more than 17,000 degrees Fahrenheit - almost twice as hot as the surface of the sun. In fact, they’ve been sharing that data with NASA in exchange for technical advice on deep space planning and support. In May, 2012, the Dragon made its first resupply trip to the space station, returning with experiments and other items. He says that it's possible that nuclear fusion in the cores of stars needs nuclear fission to work.
