It is a term used to classify the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the sun and intercepted by the Earth. It is the world's most permanent and reliable source of energy and the most copious. http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/An-Untapped-Source-Of-Eternal-Energy--What-Is-Solar-Energy-/16668 Mon, 20 Mar 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/An-Untapped-Source-Of-Eternal-Energy--What-Is-Solar-Energy-/16668 Viewed from space, the Earth appears to have four or five major landmass areas depending on your viewpoint. Despite this, we hold on to the illusion there are more continents. http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/The-Odd-Seven-Continents-Theory/16248 Fri, 17 Mar 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/The-Odd-Seven-Continents-Theory/16248 For many years it was believed the Earth was the center of the Universe. Alas, this was disproved for a number of reasons including the fact the planet was moving quickly through space. http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/The-Earth-is-a-Hot-Rod/16243 Fri, 17 Mar 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/The-Earth-is-a-Hot-Rod/16243 Despite thousands of years of gazing at the stars, we've never found another planet like Earth. Who would've thought looking inward would reveal the Earth is formed like an onion. http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/The-Earth-as-an-Onion/16242 Fri, 17 Mar 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/The-Earth-as-an-Onion/16242 Lights in the sky have fascinated us for thousands of years. The lights in the far north and south of our planet are some of the more famous ones. http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/The-Aurora-Lights/16241 Fri, 17 Mar 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/The-Aurora-Lights/16241 Modern scientists adopted the ancient concept of the ether to explain the fundamental nature of the universe. Einstein allegedly dethroned the ether concept with his space time continuum. In spite of this, we might have to revisit the ether concept. http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/The-Invisible-Ether-and-Michelson-Morley/15176 Sat, 11 Mar 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/The-Invisible-Ether-and-Michelson-Morley/15176 Scientific inquiry can be described as a sequence of observations leading to a hypothesis which must be tested by experimentation. The results either validate or invalidate the hypothesis which was under test. Unfortunately, the interpretation of the data sometimes does not elucidate some new truth but rather eclipses our thoughts into a new era of ignorance. http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Galactic-Mystery---Matter---On-the-Dark-Side/15174 Sat, 11 Mar 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Galactic-Mystery---Matter---On-the-Dark-Side/15174 Water Filtration Solutions pros and cons. http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Water-Filtration-Solutions/14725 Thu, 09 Mar 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Water-Filtration-Solutions/14725 Louis Essen was born in 1908 in a small city in England called Nottingham. His childhood was typical of the time and he pursued his education with enjoyment and dedication. At the age of 20 Louis graduated from the University of Nottingham, where he had been studying. It was at this time that his career started to take off, as he was invited to join the NPL, or National Physics Laboratory. http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/The-Invention-Of-The-Atomic-Clocks/14312 Tue, 07 Mar 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/The-Invention-Of-The-Atomic-Clocks/14312 An article about aluminium foil packaging and the myth of its non use with microwave ovens. http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Packaging---Alufoil-And-Microwaves/14290 Tue, 07 Mar 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Packaging---Alufoil-And-Microwaves/14290 In Greek mythology, the Titan Prometheus gave the gift of fire to Humanity. It provided warmth, light, and energy. Whether or not you believe that myth, humanity has learned to concentrate that light into beams of unimaginable power: Lasers. http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Lasers---The-New-Mythical-Gift-Of-Fire/14057 Mon, 06 Mar 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Lasers---The-New-Mythical-Gift-Of-Fire/14057 If chemistry was not your strong suit in school, maybe you could use the help of a convenient refresher now and then.

The key component in the kit is usually a pair of serrated cotton swabs, and some DNA free sample tubes. These two components allow the obtaining of the source material which will ultimately be used to determine the biological relationship of a child to the putative parents. http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Using-a-Home-DNA-Test-Kit/13847 Sat, 04 Mar 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Using-a-Home-DNA-Test-Kit/13847 I am not against any scientific enquiry. I support science and I fully support the work of science in making living better for all of this. http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Discovering-The-Cosmos---Why/13486 Fri, 03 Mar 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Discovering-The-Cosmos---Why/13486 Graphology is the name given to the general subject of personality analysis based on handwriting analysis. Just as in Psychology there are various schools of Psychology - Behaviorist, Psychoanalytical, and so on - so too in Graphology. http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Handwriting-Analysis/11852 Tue, 21 Feb 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Handwriting-Analysis/11852 One may consider the hair as a person's crowning glory. In fact, most people spend hours in front of the mirror fixing their hair. Aside from making each one of us look good, the hair has yet another function you might be interested in. In today's modern world, there comes another way of detecting drugs in individuals. Yes, using the hair! And it is actually the most accurate method of detecting drug abuse in individuals. http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/The-Future-Of-Drug-Testing---Hair-Sampling/11423 Sun, 19 Feb 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/The-Future-Of-Drug-Testing---Hair-Sampling/11423 Tritium has been used since the 1930's to illuminate watches at night. This once Top Secret technology is now available to members of the public in a safe form using tritium vial light sources. http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Tritium-Technology-in-Military-Watches/11393 Sat, 18 Feb 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Tritium-Technology-in-Military-Watches/11393 DNA testing was popularized only in recent years mainly due to having it extremely handy when it comes to high-profile criminal investigations as well as in paternity cases. DNA, otherwise known as deoxyribonucleic acid, is most commonly used in trying to prove the relationship of an individual to another person, that linking is aimed at trying to determine whether or not those two people are related or not. http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Do-It-Yourself-DNA-Testing/11191 Fri, 17 Feb 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Do-It-Yourself-DNA-Testing/11191 First, the stomach must store the swallowed food and liquid. This requires the muscle of the upper part of the stomach to relax and accept large volumes of swallowed material. http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/The-Human-Digestive-System-Part-2/11021 Thu, 16 Feb 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/The-Human-Digestive-System-Part-2/11021 All animals, fungi and humans are heterotrophs. A heterotroph is an organism that obtains their nutrition by breaking down organic molecules in foods. The digestive system varies depending on the type of organisms; Fungi have the simplest system and humans having the most elaborate. Like the digestive systems in all organisms, the digestive system of the human is vital for survival. http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/The-Human-Digestive-System-Part-1/11019 Thu, 16 Feb 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/The-Human-Digestive-System-Part-1/11019 Theoretical cosmologists spend much of their time perfecting what is now known as the 'Big Bang' theory. This concept originates from ideas percolating in the minds of scientists, theologians and astronomers down through the ages. However, much of what they consider as proof for the 'Big Bang' is dependent upon uncontrolled experimentation that is molded to meet their expectations. http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Big-Bang-Booming---Back-to-the-Future/9996 Thu, 09 Feb 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Big-Bang-Booming---Back-to-the-Future/9996 Water is used as a significant power source in many parts of the world. In fact, Norway uses it to produce 99 percent of its electricity. So, how does it work? http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Using-Water-As-a-Power-Source/9218 Sat, 04 Feb 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Using-Water-As-a-Power-Source/9218 With massive rebate programs and tax credits being issued by state and federal governments, using the sun to generate electricity is very popular. So, how does it work? http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Using-the-Sun-for-Power---How-It-Works/9216 Sat, 04 Feb 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Using-the-Sun-for-Power---How-It-Works/9216 No doubt you have heard the claims from young earth creationists about living fossils. A "living fossil" is an organism that is thought to have been extinct, and then it shows up alive on planet earth. http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Living-Fossils/7741 Tue, 24 Jan 2006 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.articlesphere.com/Article/Living-Fossils/7741
