• Sun - astronomy.

  A The Sun’s Place in the Milky Way The Milky Way Galaxy contains about 400 billion stars. All of these stars, and the gas and dust between them, are rotating about a galactic center. Stars that arefarther away from the center move at slower speeds and take longer to go around it. The Sun is located in the outer part of the galaxy, at a distance of 2.6 × 10 17 km (1.6 × 10 17 mi) from the center. The Sun, which is moving around the center at a velocity of 220 km/s (140 mi/s), takes 250 million y...

  The Truckee, Carson, and Walker rivers flow out of the Sierra Nevada, thread their way around several of the desert ranges, and also end in closed basins. The Walkerflows into Walker Lake, the Carson into Lahontan Reservoir. The major part of the Truckee’s flow is now diverted to Lahontan Reservoir, although as required by lawsome of it empties into Pyramid Lake. Because these three streams flow constantly, the lakes into which they empty never dry up. Winnemucca Lake formerly receivedoverflow w...

  Les personnages dans Candide Les commentateurs ont dit et redit que les personnages dè Candide n'étaient que des marionnettes, Voltaire tirant toutes les ficelles. Cela ne paraît pas exact. L'auteur est derrière ses personnages, certes, mais ceux-ci apparaissent bien vivants, en chair et en os : et là encore, vérité physique et vérité psychologique sont toujours suffisament respectées pour nous obliger à les accepter telles quelles, sans discussion possible.

The consumption of coffee increasedin Europe during the 17th century, prompting the...

Maps madefrom data on the level of the ocean surface have been compared with maps made with direct depth measurements and the two types have corresponded well. Using sonar, depth measurements are made by measuring the time for a sound wave to travel from the surface of the ocean to the ocean floor, and to return ( see Sounding). Often sev...
