Science teachers can utilize this article by updating their curriculum related to the universe. While textbooks currently being used convey the traditional notions of the past, newer developments need to be incorporated immediately. Most current aspects of science seem to change rapidly. Astronomers such as Fabio Governato from the University of Washington have demonstrated how supercomputers can be used to replicate the activities in space, which are invisible to our telescopes. Using the components of the article to make a presentation on the latest developments in the field of space and technology can be a good approach. While most students would consider this just like any other class, it might stand out to some intelligent ones who could build a career in this area. Science teachers can observe this article from a broader point-of-view, search for similar articles and satisfy their personal research interests.

Scientists often focus on a particular problem while exploring their range of interests. There can be several reasons associated with this. Science is a vast subject and one can easily get distracted from their goal. Every topic can be segregated into multiple divisions with their own problems. The job of a scientist is to restrict themselves within a particular problem and conduct an in depth investigation over the factors associated with it. They need to identify solutions for all the previous issues and discover new glitches. This makes it essential for their line of interest to be clear right from the start. If a scientist decides on choosing multiple problems to analyse, it limits the allocation of resources towards the principal one. The article illustrates how astronomers conducting their research on the evolution of galaxies seek out different techniques of getting closer to the truth. They do not waver from their main course even though some of the telescopes currently available might not be good enough.

The various stages in the development of telescopes and their evolution over the years can ignite their interest along these lines. The society gets to learn something about how the world came into existence and stay tuned for more. They get to know of the space missions that have been going on in the past and the conclusions drawn from them. An idea of the dates when the latest telescopes will be launched allows them to stay updated with the current status of developments. Bright students who might be following these proceedings could spot some trends, which the astronomers might be unaware of and present them in the future. An in-depth study of the far off galaxies as initiated in the article can cause individuals from other fields of expertise to get associated with such telescopic missions.
Analysis of something of the dimensions of outer space makes the use of computers inevitable. Reaching out into the actual galaxies via space missions proves to be very expensive and cannot be repeated as and when needed. Computers have been used to reproduce every happening using images taken in outer space. However such simulations have their own problems. Since nearly all automated functionalities performed are based on human inputs, inherent errors do creep in. For instance, the structure of dwarf galaxies did not incorporate supernovas till their impact was revealed recently. This implies that all previous studies might be incorrect and a whole new set of results need to be recorded. Computers, regardless of how powerful, are still machines. In fact, the complexities of supercomputers which are used to study galaxies bring in an equivalent amount of technical problems. The introduction of advanced telescopes requires computers to be updated regularly as well. This can be a problem considering the costs involved.

The universe viewed through a telescope looked different, and this difference in itself played into the Protestant argument that received truths may be fallible. In fact, the notion of truth outside empirical evidence became unsteady: For most thinkers in the decades following Galileo's observations with the telescope, the concern was not so much for the need of a new system of physics as it was for a new system of

Low Noise Amplifier Design
PAGES 12 WORDS 3276

A matching device needs to be chosen taking the frequency range into consideration. There are a few ways in which the low noise amplifier performance designed can be improved. Since GaAs Field effect transistors are used in these amplifiers, biasing point selection needs to be done carefully. The positive voltage should only be applied while the negative voltage is already on. While switching it off, the positive should always precede

Sometimes, the choice of what to explore has been sensationalistic, preferring to pursue exciting new frontiers instead of areas of space where collecting more data would allow us to make useful determinations. This is more of an administrative issue than a scientific issue. It has more to do with the suits on Capitol Hill than the engineers in Florida. V. Future of NASA A. What the new focus/goals should be As with

The last major x-ray flare occurred in 2003 ("O'Dell). Most of the energy from an x-ray flare is absorbed by the earth's ionosphere ("O'Dell). Thus, a CME can be far more dangerous for human societies than an x-ray flare. The first and most subtle observable phenomenon signaling an upcoming solar storm are known as coronal loops, which are "kinks in the magnetic flux form" forced to the surface of the

Michael Cooley (1972) has suggested that the drawing office has been downgraded in importance as a result of the finer division of labor in engineering that began in the 1930s. He described how the creative design element had become increasingly separated from the work of executing drawings. The fragmentation of shop floor jobs was, according to Cooley, paralleled by fragmentation of the job of the designer/drafter. Until the 1930s, drafters

Similar to the suggestions offered by Gahala (2001), Brody (1995) identified several traits to be considered when developing a comprehensive professional development program. Among those traits include the reputation of the trainer, the rewards available to the participants, both tangible and intangible, and the support of the administration. Traditional staff development models have required everyone to participate at the same time and in the same location creating problems such
