Fronts

Cold Front- A cold front occurs when cold air moves in it takes the warm air up and forms clouds once the clouds reach 100% humidity its precipitates
Warm Front-A warm front is where warm air comes in and takes up most of the cold air as it dose this it forms a cloud that then precipitates
Stationary Front-A stationary front is where warm and cold air meet and form a cloud in the middle then it precipitates
Occluded Front-This is when there are 2 areas of cool air with warm air in the middle then the warm air gos over the cool air
Which type of front occurred this week to bring the cold weather and then snow? A Occluded front

Atmospheric Factors Affecting Earth

My paper is linked above.

Photochemical Smog

Photochemical smog is a brown haze that happens to develop in sunny cities. this smog is produced by the sunlight hitting pollutants. These chemicals can form to a brownish ozone that settles in the troposphere. For many reasons you here that it does noy matter because ozone blocks ultra violet light and protects living things. Ozone can also be bad for people wen it is as low as the troposphere because it can irritate the eyes, throat, and lungs. to solve this problem people need to start to bun less and less coal and wood.

Earth's Atmosphere

Earth's atmosphere makes it very diffrent from the moon and other planets that do not have a atmosphere. See the moon does not have a atmosphere so every meteor going towards it hits it. How ever earth's atmosphere burns up the meteoroids as they pass threw it. Earth's atmosphere also is made up of many gases that are important to us liveing so all the planets without a atmosphere most likely will not be able to have liveing things on it. That is why earths atmosphere makes earth so unique.

Rockets

Space Exploration

The Science Of Rockets

• Since the 1950's we have used atlas rockets to launch probes and satellites into space


• Today we have created new versions 58 meters tall with 3 stages


• First stage is called atlas


• Second stage is called centaur


• Third stage is called payload

The Space Program

• NASA began in 1958


• In 1958 NASA did a project to see if people could survive in space


• Then NASA did a project called gemini useing a spacecraft built for two


• NASA also did a prject called apollo 13 witch put astroauts on the moon

Apollo 13

• Launched on April 11 1976


• Two days into flight oxygen tank blew up


• It failed but it landed safely in the Pacific Ocean

Going Back To The Moon

• Three uncrewed space crafts have landed on the moon


• Both passed through information on the moon

Exploring Space Today

• A small robot called a personal satellite assistant is used


• Powered by solar cells


• Programed to regularly conduct maintenence check-ups


• Has a video phone

Using Space Science on Earth

• Less than 1% of U. S. budget is spent on the space program


• Some people disagree with funding the space program


• The space program supports many jobs


• This inspires people to explore the unknown

Gizmo:Seasons: Earth, Moon, Sun

All in all there are two factors that cause the seasons. First the axis of earth is is tilted. Second the revolution of earth on its orbit is another reason. The reasons those two things make are summer, winter, fall, and spring. those are two reasons for the seasons.

perspective

The book Zoom is about changing your prospective every picture. In every picture your prospective changes and you think that its a different thing. As it gets father you have a different prospective. This has to do with prospective because every picture you have a different point of view of whats happening. That's about the book zoom that has a bunch to do with prospective.

There are many ways prospective can help you with something like it is. For example when u look at a chiwawa frombehind it looks like a rat. But when you look at it from in front it looks like a chiwawa. Many things help you alter your perspective. Such as changing your point of view or getting farther away.

In science people could gather data many ways. But people that would like to gather information from up close are usually studying small things. They could also be gathering information on something and want to get lots of details. With astronomy it would be important to be aware of prospective because something could look like something and it wont be exactly be what it looks. All in all prospective is something you could use all the time and be aware of.

Enigma Box

Scientists use many skills to learn about something in the natural world. One skill they use is observing by using one or more of their scenes to gather information. They also use classifying by putting stuff in groups that have similar features. By guessing what is going to happen in the future by knowledge is predicting. Also by making a interpretation with observations they also make inferences. I used all of those great features to figure out what was going on in the enigma box.
The enigma box is a mystery but i observed it closely. We kept putting more water in and nothing happened. Until we put in 470 ml then boom. Water came out the yube on the bottom. How come the water came out all the sudden?
Well i beleive i can answer that question. I think that there is a slanted wall inside and once you get enough water it spills over. When it spills over it gos out tube in the bottom. Thats how i think it works. But is that really how it works?
No that is not how the enigma box works, there were many guesses on how it works. But all of them were wrong and now im going to really tell u how it works. There is a twisted tube in the box. When you pour water in the box the tube fills up to where the water level is. Once the water gets to the highest point of the tube the water comes out the other end of the tube. That is how the enigma box works.
