She asked her sixth grade students to send me questions they had about astronomy, and I answer them on camera. There were so many I had to split this into *5* parts! This is Part 4, and these are the questions they asked me: 1) Is there another planet past Pluto or inside Mercury&#8217;s orbit? 2) Why can&#8217;t we live without the Sun? 3) How do stars form? 4) Have the constellations changed? 5) Why is space black? Why doesn&#8217;t the Sun light it up? 6) Do galaxies move around in space and do they collide? 7) What is the biggest galaxy?</p>

I apologise for the somewhat erratic sound/volume in this video. I did not record it all in one go, and I have no idea what I&#8217;m doing in iMovie. The next one will be better. To those who were referred to me by DonExodus2, thank you for checking out my videos and I hope you&#8217;ll like what you see enough to subscribe. To DonExodus2 himself, thank you very much indeed for your support. Various multimedia in this video was created by NASA/ESA/JAXA/ESO/Berkley/Exeter Errata: 1. I apologise, this is just completely wrong. It was thought up until 1965 that Mercury was tidally locked to the Sun, but was proven to have 3:2 spin orbit resonance. That means for every 2 years on Mercury, there are 3 days. One Mercurian year is about 88 Terran days and one Mercurian day about 59 Terran days. I think I was once told that Mercury *was* thought to be tidally locked with the Sun, and confused that to mean it was the current consesus. Again, sorry!

The first star identified to be at this stage was T-Tauri, hence the name. During the T-Tauri stage, stars are extremely active and variable, but do not undergo nuclear reactions in their cores until they enter the main sequence. They are driven by gravitational collapse (the KH contraction mechanism). The winds generated by T-Tauri stars are theorised to be strong enough to stimulate production of warm water vapour in the nebulae around them.

This fairly common sight occurs when high thin clouds containing millions of tiny ice crystals cover much of the sky. Each ice crystal acts like a miniature lens. Because most of the crystals have a similar elongated hexagonal shape, light entering one crystal face and exiting through the opposing face refracts 22 degrees, which corresponds to &#8230; antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov ► Night Launch of the Space Shuttle Endeavour Sometimes, the space shuttle launches at night. Pictured above, the space shuttle Endeavour lifted off in yesterday&#8217;s early morning hours from Launch Pad 39A in Kennedy Space Center, Florida, USA, bound for the International Space Station (ISS). A night launch, useful for reaching the space station easily during some times of the year, frequently creates &#8230; antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov ► M51 Hubble Remix The 51st entry in Charles Messier&#8217;s famous catalog is perhaps the original spiral nebula &#8211; a large galaxy with a well defined spiral structure also cataloged as NGC 5194. Over 60000 light-years across, M51&#8242;s spiral arms and dust lanes clearly sweep in front of its companion galaxy (top), NGC 5195. Image data from the Hubble&#8217;s Advanced Camera for Surveys has been reprocessed to &#8230; antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov ► Teide Sky Trails The snow capped Teide volcano is reflected in a pool of water in <b>&#8230;</b></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" href="http://www.freepsychicsight.com">Psychic</a> reading is any form or method used to forecast a person’s future. Psychic readers are those who claim to have special sensory powers to be able to gauge the un-obvious. They profess to have special powers to enter the sub-conscience level of the Psyche or the human mind.</p>
<p>Psychometry is a form of a science where the psychic analyses a person’s life with respect to the occurrences or incidents in his/her life either in the past or in the present. They get in touch with the place or event or the object in question and gather ‘readings’ from them. It is a strong belief that places or objects close to a person holds strong vibes from that person. Distance Reading completely depends on intuitive foretelling. Usually the psychic uses his instinct about the person in question in order to predict his/her future. Here the absence of the person leaves the psychic with no visual clues about him.</p>
<p>Astrology and Horoscopes are that form of <a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" href="http://www.infiniteadvice.com">psychic</a> reading where the planets play a major role. The time and place of birth are the major determinants of these two forms. With reference to the planetary positions at the time of birth, a person’s life “map” is drawn. It is predicted as to how that person’s life pathway is deemed to be.</p>
<p>Numerology is a kind of psychic reading which deals with numbers and their influence on our lives. It involves translating the meaning of one’s birth date, or the number of letters in one’s name or one’s lucky number etc. Tarot Reading is that kind of psychic reading, where the reader has a set of cards and each card has its own meaning. Depending on where in the deck the card appears and which cards surround it, the psychic reader forecast a person’s future or conveys aspects about the person’s life. Such revelations differ from reader to reader.</p>
<p>Palm Reading or Palmistry is a very common method among psychicreaders. The reader gauges the lines of fate in our palms and deduces past and future. It is a renowned method of foretelling that has been coming down from hundreds of years and from various civilizations. Aura Reading is considered to be a higher level of psychic reading. It is known that every person, animal or thing has its own circle of energy emitting out of it, which we call an aura. Some people have the power to assess this Aura; they claim to have the ability of sensing these vibes. Aspects of a person’s personality are evident in these vibes.</p>
<p>There are various free online websites which offer psychic reading services. They claim to have experts who will be able to read your life and give solutions to your problems, if any. They offer free services such as daily, weekly, monthly or yearly forecasts. For premium services like psychic chat with their experts or solutions to specific problems, they offer paid membership options. Scores of such sites have been mushrooming over the internet but their authenticity is a point of question. As we know that, ‘Man is the maker of his own destiny’ then why not trust our capabilities rather than such occult sciences.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There have been repeated requests from my visitors to make astrology as scientific by utilising the present day scientific developments.</p>
<p>I am one of the very close follower of all NASA publications and videos. I also used to watch live ISS mission videos for almost 10 hours a day. I am just giving below the gist of what NASA has done so far and why astrology is the best cheaper alternative than science.</p>
<p>Except on earth and that too some exempted places, humans cannot think of living anywhere else around the universe or any other planets. There is no question of going anywhere nearer to the planet SUN as its temperature level is far far beyond the understanding of humans. The need for analyzing and making thorough study of SUN is the only way by which this universe can be understood well. All the planets in the solar systems and survival of we humans lie in the hands of SUN only.</p>
<p>But as it is said by almost all religions/faiths that SUN is GOD, may be it is not allowing we humans anywhere nearer to the planet. It is not only this is the point  but I would like to make a point clear here.</p>
<p>IT looks to me that NASA is wasting huge money after finding  nothing. So far NASA has just proved the facts told by our ancient cultures only. No one knows whether (Old people),they spent huge money to get the knowledge of universe, but we know NASA wastes trillions of dollars. If one goes through the NASA expeditions and its publications you can find that except earth, we cannot live anywhere else nor any other living beings if at all present in other planets can think of meeting us. No doubt the other aliens if at all there will never be like us and cannot be, because the atmospheric conditions, its structure are totally different from what we are now enjoying.</p>
<p>Look at space walks undertaken by  astronauts in ISS and we can see how struggling it is even to stand just outside earth atmosphere. When such conditions prevail there is no point in researching on these things and wasting huge sums and they are not going to get anything. The only thing NASA does is giving statistics of earth quakes damages/oil spill/ cyclonic storm/super tsunamis after the damage has been done. Absolutely there is no way that NASA is able to prevent them. It is impossible to do that. GOD is not going to allow the same.</p>
<p>I would like to make a point here that NASA has established the fact that it is only due to SUN&#8217;s gravitational pull that all the planets rotate around SUN. Also NASA has extracted the sounds from Jupiter/Saturn etc. When there is gravitational pull from SUN to other planets, there is also same force will act among the planets.</p>
<p>This is what is the force described in astrology as planetary influences on earth and its living beings. Astrology is not for a particular religion or caste/creed. It is for the entire earth as a whole. Like planet SUN is common for the universe, astrology is for everything. Close study of planets using astronomical data and the effects it makes on the earth can be well established if one makes thorough study of both.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The comet comes from the Greek word kometa, which means hair, and refers to the characteristic &#8220;tail&#8221; that occurs when the comet approaches the sun.</p>
<p>Centuries ago, it was considered that the appearance of comets in the sky portended misfortune or calamity. Many violent or tragic events in history are associated with appearances of comets: the death of Agrippa (12 BC), the destruction of Jerusalem (66 BC), the assassination of Emperor Claudius (54 AD).</p>
<p>For the Romans the appearance of a comet meant fate, the Incas believed that it announced the death of a king, as happened in cases of Huayna Capac, Atahualpa. For the Aztecs, it foretold the return of Quetzalcoatl and the end of his reign (in fact, a comet appeared shortly before the arrival of Cortes to Tenochtitlan and the fall of the empire). </p>
<p>The Maya, meanwhile, had a kinder view of the curious phenomenon: they believed that the appearance of a comet presaged changes in the structures, a transformation of consciousness and an evolution in the understanding of life.</p>
<p>All peoples have pictorial or literary evidence of the passage of comets over the centuries. Everyone wanted to somehow capture the impact they had on the mysterious celestial phenomenon, either out of fear, awe or curiosity.<br /> We now know that comets are solid bodies that come primarily from two places in the galaxy: the Oort cloud and the Kuiper Belt. </p>
<p>In recent history there have been many famous comets.</p>
<p>We can say that the most famous of these is Halley. Its appearance is recorded from 238 A.C. in chronicles from around the world: Japan, China, India. Edmund Halley was the astronomer who calculated its orbit in 1705 and predicted his subsequent appearances, every 76 years. Between 18 and 19 of May 1910, the Earth passed the comet&#8217;s tail. It was a beautiful sight, but unfortunately overshadowed by the panic that gripped many people, due to the news circulating about the effects this would have. <br />There was talk of collective poisoning by gases from the tail of Halley&#8217;s comet, when actually this line is so fine that it could be described as empty. </p>
<p>Another is the famous comet Hale-Bopp. It was discovered simultaneously in 1995 by Alan Hale, New Mexico, and Thomas Bopp, Arizona. Its importance lies in its magnitude. Telescopes were able for the first time, at a distance where other comets are not, to view it. In 1996 it could be viewed with the naked eye when Hale-Bopp was within a year of its perihelion (point of orbit closest to the sun). </p>
<p>On 1 April 1997 it shined more than any other star. Had it passed closer to Earth, it would have been brighter than the full moon. In total, it remained visible without the aid of instruments for 569 days.</p>
<p>Hyakutake has an orbital period of 72,000 years. It was discovered by a Japanese amateur astronomer, Yuji Hyakutake, January 30, 1996, while observing the sky with binoculars. Hyakutake, called The Great Comet of 1996, it was first discovered by X-ray emissions produced from a comet (there were others that followed). </p>
<p>Another factor that made it famous was having the longest tail known so far: between 570 and 1,000 million km. It is among the 4 comets which passed close to Earth in the twentieth century.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When you are thinking about astronomy, the first thing that comes to mind is a telescope. This misconception is found every day. Actually, the first thing you need to do is look at the stars with a pair of binoculars. You cam spend hundreds of dollars on a telescope that might not be the right one. One thing that star glazers will tell you is that some of the lunar eclipses and bright comets look better with binoculars than with a high-powered telescope.</p>
<p>You need to look around the sky with a star map and learn about the stars and other objects in space before you jump in and buy a telescope. Sometimes what you see through a telescope will be ugly, where as through the binoculars, it is a beautiful focused site to see. Once you learn about the stars themselves, you will have a better understanding of what you are looking at and how far away it really is.</p>
<p>After you learn about the sky above you are ready to look for a telescope. Before rushing out and buying a telescope, you should find some astronomers who will share their experiences and maybe even their telescopes with a group. Trying out a telescope before you buy it is something that will help you decide on what telescope will be best for you.</p>
<p>Some things to consider are what you plan to do with the telescope, how much you have to spend and are you going to take photographs of your sightings. If you are a causal backyard astronomer, you might even look at the Dobsonian telescopes. Never worry about power, but be more concerned about aperture and optics. If you will be viewing planets, you will need a telescope with high magnification. You would not want to buy a telescope with 600 power, as it will not have the aperture needed.</p>
<p>Most professional astronomers use a reflector type of telescope. This is where the light path is diverted to the concave lens or eyepiece. With the refractor telescopes, the light passes through the telescope by way of a lens to the eyepiece. In some of the opinions from astronomers, the refractor is the best type of telescope for looking at the solar system. However, reflectors are cheaper than the refractors. Reflector telescopes are recommended for beginning astronomers.</p>
<p>You will find areas with complete darkness are the best, but city viewing is fine if you have very little light to distract your viewing. Keep in mind that planet viewing is spectacular. You can see the ring around Saturn as well as view Venus. Jupiter, which changes every time you view it, is an amazing planet to keep an eye on.</p>
<p>You will want to have a star map, planet map and keep an eye on the news to find out when any interesting things are appearing in the solar system. Experience the sighting of a comet or meter shower, you will find that astronomy is a great way to spend the evening by yourself or with friends.</p>
