Cosmology
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. The concept of human beings understanding everything about their universe is preposterous and arrogant.

There are just some things that cannot be obtained merely for the asking. The writer delves into the deeper meaning behind the universe and discusses why mortals are not likely to be the ones who find out the secrets of the cosmos. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

Fred Hoyle's Contributions to Astronomy
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages. It seems most of the scientific community has accepted the Big Bang Theory as the creation of the universe, but since that time Hoyle has always refused to follow that line, arguing that the Big Bang has not lived up to its early promise, and that his revised Steady State theory, that the universe has always existed, better fits the facts. This paper discusses the accomplishments and contributions to astronomy made by Fred Hoyle. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Galileo and the Advent and Balance of Modern Science
[ send me this paper ]
This 6 page report discusses the Italian mathematician, physicist, and

intellectual avalanche of ideas and hypotheses that began in the 16th century. It is essential that modern historians understand where “the balance” of science occurred and at what point its “marked change” took place. In addition, a short explanation is included regarding the differences between the winter and summer Solstice. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Gaps Between Theory and Application of Satellite Communications
[ send me this paper ]
This 11 page report discusses the gaps between the theories related to satellite communications and their applications as compared with the actual practice being utilized or expanded upon. An ever-increasing number of applications of international communications satellite technology have developed in the past forty years but many of those applications are still variations on the communications theme.

How Has The Space Program Progressed?
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. Inasmuch as the space program started out as more of a competition between nations, it has blossomed into its own fruition. Originally a quest to attain first bragging rights with regard to space exploration, the program began as the result of a rivalry between the Soviet Union and the United States around the time of the Cold War. At that time, there was no way America was going to be outdone by the Soviets when it came to space exploration; because of the United States' steadfastness to achieve greater success, the space program was implemented in full swing. What has come from such intense dedication can fill a multi-volume collection, from all the positive and wonderful aspects to all the regretful and unfavorable events. The writer discusses how the world has gained much knowledge about what exists beyond this planet through the explorations of the space program, an adventure that might not have otherwise come into existence if it were not for the inherent desire to be the best. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
