How to use the nuclear waste energy itself to propel it into space?
OK, for all you nay sayers lets say for argument we agree to get this waste into space. We all know the risk of a saturn 5 and the space shuttle is usable but small payloads. So the question is,,, how to use the energy in the waste itself to propel the material toward the sun? We are looking into a space elevator (cable) and magnetics but we should be able to harness the waste energy itself to propel. We need a real think tank.
How does space scientist predict a course of route for a satellite?
Adop would be better than predict. Keeping in view that there must be many asteroids, comets etc which are not visible from Earth. Then how they know which path/route etc to follow to avoid even minute of alien particles? For example some satellites have gone as far as Saturn and Jupiter avoiding even a tiny bit of space rock etc. And at that speed even a pebble would seem an Everest. Is it luck or real precise navigation, information and calibration?
What Gets Kids Interested in Space?
All the TV shows about characters that live or come from space such as the transformers, the TV show V or various other animated spots have kids wondering something. That would be wondering to know where all these characters come from.
The answer is up in space from another galaxy. At least that is what they think. The younger they are the more they believe that Optimus Prime out there somewhere just waiting to come down and save the earth the earth from the decepticons. An imagination is a good thing to have.
How can you use this interest to get kids interested in the stars?
Get them a telescope. A telescope will allow them to see craters on the moon, distant stars, the rings around saturn and much more. Just be sure they do not use it to look into the neighbors house down the street.
While looking at the stars with your child, you can suggest that maybe the transformers are living in a crater in the moon. You can find the name of that crater and your child will probably never forget where it is or the name. You can ask questions while the child is looking through the telescope. You can ask where they think the decepticons live. When they pick out a place, that celestial body will be in their memory for a lifetime. It will give them something to tell their kids.
To further advance this interest in space you will need a good telescope. Do not go and buy a toy telescope from a toy store. They are just that, toys. They will not allow you to get the full experience of star gazing either.
