2 blogs IN ONE! YAY =D

    The big big BANG!  Hey everyone! Well today we're going to do something a little different. I'm doing 2 blogs in one! Because I'm that awesome! And because I have 2 things I want to talk about and I just can't decide! So yeah. OK so obviously we're talking about The Big Bang first. The Big Bang is a theory that everything in the universe just exploded. Space, time, matter, you name it. Scientists say that all that stuff started out in a tiny dot called a singularity.



hm if only a singularity was THAT pretty








        Then, the singularity EXPLODED! (kaboom!) No one knows how, it just...happened. Well, this explosion caused all the matter and time to go in all different directions. You know, the awesomeness we were talking about earlier? (chirp,chirp) What do you not remember or something? (chirp,chirp) Oh you don't. Well then re-read it. Anyways, this theory was created by a Belgian priest named Georges Lemaitre. Yeah I don't know how to say it, so please don't ask. Everyone thought he was crazy. But he still believed that theory. Then, around the 1920s, 2 guys named Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson found something awesome. They found radiation left over from the Big Bang! Awesome. Plus, they also made a cool song out of that theory. Here, let me show you.






     BLEEP BLAP BLOOP! Greetings and salutations! I am Zisnorn from the planet..well you don't need to know. Celine told me that she wanted to have an alien come and talk to you creatures. So here I am!  Well I can't tell you creatures very much . But what I can tell you is that not all aliens are mean and nasty. And we don't look green and have antenas. Basicaly everything that you creatures think of us is wrong. Or is it? BLEEP BLAP BLOOP!

Bye bye Zisnorn!

       Woah. Where am I? Oh yeah, Zisnorn dropped me off here. Well now I'm going to tell you what I think of aliens. I think that we are not alone in this universe. Because we're just one planet in one solar system in one galaxy. There are like a jillion galaxies in the universe! There's got to be something else ou there! I'm not entirely sure if we'll ever come face to face with them, but there is something out there. One day, in the DISTANAT future maybe we'll prove that there is something out there! Until then... (mysterious music)
              It's now that time again! We have reached the end of my blog. OK here's a hilarious "alien" video. Hope you like! Oh and Zisnorn says hi! Well me and him are gonna go to get some grub! BYE! (hey Zisnorn, do you know were we're eating?) Science Fun:)

Gala-la-laxy!!!!!! =P

     Galaxy! Gala-la-laxy! Hey guys! It's me! So today we're going to talk about galaxies. Does anyone remember what a galaxy is? (umm is it a cloud of matter?) Close, it's a cloud of dust, gas, planets, and stars. But good try! (thank you!) Well we're gonna try to get a little bit more detailed than that today. We're gonna learn about, "the three major classifications of galaxies." That's what Mr.Sellers (my science teacher) told me to write about in specific. But don't get me wrong, this is a very interesting topic. Lemme show you.
        OK so the classifications are, drum roll please. Dudududuudududududududu..... Elliptical, Spiral, and Irregular! Here is what they are:
Elliptical Galaxies- They're shaped like an oval or a disk. It's very BRIGHT! It actually gets brighter as you get further in. Something cool is that they don't have an, "exact axis of rotation." That means that it doesn't spin in a specific way.


see i TOLD u it was bright!
















Spiral Galaxies- Spirals have three parts. A bulge, a disk, and a halo. The bulge is in the center and it has most of the older stars. The disk has a bunch of gas, dust, and younger stars. It makes up the arms. Cool fact: Our sun is in an arm. The halo is around the bulge and some of the disk. It also contains clusters of stars called global clusters.


oo that has brown, blue, and PURPLE!










Irregular Galaxies- These galaxies have no definate shape or form. There isn't much we know about them. We DO know that they have mostly younger stars. They have different shapes and sizes. Basiclly they're the rejects. They're um...what do you call it? (irregular?) YEAH! That's it!



it kinda looks like a sideways C















     Well that's the end of my blog! Hope you guys like! Here's a super weird video. BYE!!!!! Science Fun:)

Got Milk-y Way?

        YO YO YOSIF! IT BE ME ME ME! LOL! Hey guys. I'm here with another awesome blog for you guys! Today we're going to talk about something sweet. It's called the Milky Way galaxy. Does anyone here know what that is?



oh oh i KNOW i got it right this time!





        Sigh I really thought you were gonna get it this time! (oh man!) Well the Milky Way is our galaxy. A galaxy is a giant cluster of stars, dust, gas, and planets. Now since you know what a galaxy is, we're gonna talk about the Milky Way. Well first, its 100,000 light-years across. A light-year is measured on how fast light travels in a year. Another thing is that its a barred spiral. It basically looks like a spiral except it has a line instead of a giant sphere in the center. Here is a pic:



this pic shows out tiny little sun



       In every galaxy, there is a giant black hole in the center. Ours has one, too. That's why our galaxy keeps spinning. That's something I thought was cool and thought you should know! Another cool thing about the Milky Way is that it has over 200 billion stars! And belive it or not, it's only a middle sized galaxy! Woah. From Earth we can see only 2,500 stars.



so pretty!!!!!



      This galaxy has a lot of gas and dust. It doesn't seem like it but 10-15% of the "normal matter" is dust. And by normal matter, I mean matter that's not dark matter. Dark matter is somthing that reacts with other matter by using gravity. It takes up 80% of all the matter in the universe.  If you thing that's bad, wait till you here this! The Milky Way wasn't always an innocent pretty, galaxy. It got to be this big because it ate other galaxies! Infact, it's eating one right now! The galaxy is called  Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy. One last thing, it's located in a place called the Local Group, with 30 other galaxies.



wow









   

     OK I think that's all for now. You know, since this is somthing really special. I'm gonna show you guys a supercalafredgalisticexpialodocious video! I'm gonna show you a video to complement the beauty of the many galaxies there are. You didn't think the Milky Way was the only pretty galaxy, did you? Well then watch this. Hope you like it! Oh yeah, there also is a little bit of out solar system. Kk bye! Science Fun:)



    

Yo peeps of the world! lolz I love random titles!

    Heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! Lizzi please don't hit me! LOL! Hey guys its me here and I wanna talk about constellations. OK so first let me tell you WHAT constellations are. Well basically they're groups of stars. They aren't exactly together though. They're kind of like friends or neighbors. It just looks like they're together from where we are.
     A long time ago, before they had T.V.'s and computers and stuff, people would go outside and look at the stars. Thousands of years ago people in the Middle East would make stories out of the stars. YEAH! Go mah mid peeps!!! Anyways, other people started thinking, "HEY wait a second! That group of stars looks like a person! Oh we should make stories out of them!" They also used to use them for directions. They would use the Big Dipper's Pointers to guide them to the North Star. Whoa, wasn't that in Peter Pan?! OMG I love that movie! Well yeah. They basically used the stars for north, south, east, and west. Never Eat Sour Worms.
    


omg it moves! SO cool!
































       OK so now we are gonna talk about a specific constellation. No I'm not picking favorites! But we all picked constellations and I picked this one. So get off my back! JK. Anyways, my constellation is called Perseus. Perseus is a great hero in Greek Mythology. (for the peeps who don't know, he was the one that killed Medusa) He can be found in the winter in the Northern Hemisphere. If you look REALLY closely you can see a triangular body with his legs curling in towards his head. You can also see his arms, one is holding something either a weapon or maybe the head or Medusa. DUH DUH DUHHHHHHHHHH! Oh yeah, I probably tell you guys WHY Perseus is famouse! Yeah, that would be a good idea.
       So Perseus was a Greek hero and was most famouse for slaying Medusa (the snake hair lady). But you guys know that because I told you that! Anyways, he used Hermes' wings and Athena's shield to do it. When he was coming home, he saw a monster trying to harm the Princess Andromeda so he killed the monster by showing him Medusa's head. Anyone who looked at her turned to stone, whether she was alive or dead. (shiver) That's so creepy!



this is Perseus. see it DOES kinda look like a person!















       OK so last thing we're gonna talk about is: I dunno! OMG I told myself I wasn't gonna forget! Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it..... I GOT IT! We are going to talk about why the constellations change each season. Oh that's easy! It's because the stars IN the constellation move! They just move really slowly. But they still move. So by the time we see the constellation again, it changed. Isn't that coolio?!
        Alright so no I have to write MORE because Mr.Sellers made me write more! And yes Mr.Sellers I did mention it! Okedoke then the last thing we will be talking about is a little something I like to call, circumpolar constellations. These are constellations that circle the poles. They move counterclockwise. OMG that is a really long word! Anyways, the largest constellation is Hydra and the smallest is Crux. There NOW we're done!
         So that's some info on constellations. I hope you enjoyed them! Well I'll leave you guys a video cuz I'm in a good mood. But that could change at any moment! (cough) Nope now I'm not gonna do it! (no I'm sorry!) OK then, I'll play it! (yay) Well here's my video and I'm going to go look for constellations. If I'm lucky, Perseus! KK bye! Science Fun:)

MEEEEET BECKY!!!!! =D

   Hello everyone! It is mwa! So today we are going to talk about BLACK HOLES! You guys probably think of the humungo black thing that sucks in the things close to it. Well there is a lot more to it than people think. I'm here to tell all of you about it so you can act smarticle when you talk about it in class. I'm going to try something different this time, I'm gonna let my friend, Becky, tell you about black holes. She is a black hole, by the way. Here is a picture of her:


isn't she pretty?















     Hey guys it's me, Becky. I'm gonna try to do a good job so tell me if I did good at the end. Alrighty then, let's get started! Black holes can be made in 2 ways. One way is that if a large star explodes in a supernova. Sometimes the star remains will collapse in on itself and create a black hole. The other way is if a bunch of chemicals and gases come together they will eventually create matter. The matter will collapse on itself and create a black hole. Then, it will start to get bigger and bigger. Black holes are at least 10-15 times as big as the sun! THAT'S HUGE, RIGHT? Right!


WOAHHHHH!














        Now, we're gonna talk about the gravity of black holes. The gravity is something scary. It is so strong because it has a lot of mass. LOTS OF MASS! Did you know that some people in Sci-fi movies go INTO a black hole?! HA! That is really impossible, because if light can't escape from us, than a human DEFINITELY can't. Also, we have this thing that's called the event horizon. This is the place that grabs onto the thing that's near us. When you're in the event horizon, there's no going back. You're doomed! Remember when we were talking about humans and black holes? Do you wanna know what would happen to you guys? Good, cuz I'm gonna tell you. You would be ripped apart into a bunch of tiny particles. Ouch! Anyways, black holes are a true mystery really. The one thing scientists are dying to know is, what is on the other side of a black hole? Well, that's easy! It's.....wait a minute! I'm not telling you anything!


it looks like a CD!














        Well, Celine's back now so I have to go. I had a lot of fun!
Hey, it's me Celine again. I hope Becky did a good job! So, now it's the end of my blog. (sniffle,sniffle) To give you a little something fun, here is a cool video. BYE! Science Fun:)

IM WALKING ON SUNSHINE!!!!! WOAH!!!!!







I'm walking on sunshine! WOAH!!!!! Oh, hey guys it be me again. Alright so I'm gonna start right away. Different, right? Well, today we will be talking about the sun! WOAH!!!!! So, you guys probably know that the sun is the star that is right next to us. Well people usually don't know bubkiss about the sun. I'm here to tell you people of the world bouts it. Okidoki then, let's start!
    Like all stars, it is a bunch of very hot gasses and stuff. They start out with a bunch of helium atoms. The helium atoms combine and then turn into hydrogen atoms. This is called nuclear fusion. It happens in the core. Speaking of core, I think it would be bestest if I tell you peeps about the layers of the SUN! 
 1. Core- This is the very center of the sun. It is the most hotstests part of the sun. Hey, does the "core" sound familiar? Well it should cuz it is the same thing as the Earth. REMEMBERING IS FUN!!!!!
2. Radiation Zone- This is the place were the material is real dense and hot. The sun's radiation and energy goes through the sun. Slowly but surely, I'm acting smarticle! IS GOTS SMARTICLES PARTICLES!!!!!
3.  Convection Zone- This is the place where energy is too light to go through the sun, so it goes in convection. So it goes UP and DOWN. UP and DOWN. UP AND DOOOOOOOOWN! (owie!)
4. Photosphere- Dis layer is de layer that we can SEE! It is also reallllllly hot and stuff. This gives off that yellow-white-type-thingy-ma-bob. Such creative words.
5. Chromosphere- In an eclipse, (no not the Twilight movie) (btw, that movie SUCKS!) (sorry all peeps who <3 those movies) anyways, in an eclipse, you see a red line around the sun, that's the chromospere. The redness is caused by a lot of hydrogen. The website said "abundance." Hee hee. That be a funny word!
6. Corona- Well, this one is the most simple. It is basically the atmosphere of the sun. WELL DAT WUZ ESAY!!!!!
     So those are the layers of the sun. I hope you guys enjoyed! Now it's time for the pics. Wow, pictures, videos, AND a good writing! You guys are lucky I giva y'all so much! Until next time, BYE! Science Fun:)



OMG dat be BRIGHT!

 

throw your hands up for the layers of the sun!

dat must have huet that dudes hands! LOL!

Sup Stars!!!!!!!!!!!!

    S-s-s-stars, stars! S-s-s-stars, stars! Yosif peeps of the planet Earth. Today we are going to talk about...can you guess? (uh.....um.....uh.....is it plants?) No, not even close. (aww, I thought I was gonna get it this time!) (sigh) Well, don't worry we still are gonna learn about something super fun! We are gonna talk about STARS!!!



That's SHINYYYYYYY!



Ooooo shiny! Celine, (yes) get back on topic please. (oh                    sorry!) Well these stars have a unique history. Does anyone  even know how stars are made? No, no you don't but I'm gonna tell you right now. Ok so stars are made in a nebula. This is basically a large cloud of gas and dust. The gases in a nebula are hydrogen gas. Hee hee, nebula is a funny word. Anyways, over time, the cloud gets denser and denser and starts getting warmer and warmer. It then starts to spin. Oo Oo Oo! I'm getting dizzy! (ahhhhh!) (fall) (ow!) The hydrogen gas bump into each other. So, basically the faster they spin, the hotter they get!

Like all peeps they have different stages in life. The first stage is the PROTOSTARS. The second stage is the MAIN SEQUENCE STARS. The third is the RED GIANTS. Finally, we gots the WHITE DWARF. Ok now we are gonna talk about the sun! So bright, bright! Uh, uh! So bright, bright! Uh, uh! Our sun is 4.6 billion years old!!!! I know that seems old, but its really not if you r talking about the solar system. The sun is...wait wait WAIT. If we're gonna talk about the sun, we need to give it a name. Ok, we'll name her......Sunny! There we go. Ok, Sunny is only a middle aged star! Sunny is in the Main Sequence Star stage. Sunny will explode in 4-5 billion years! But, no need to fear, we won't be around...here. There I made a rhyme.  It may not be good, but its still a rhyme. 

Ok so now, we have come to the end to my blog. I know, I know its sad but we must go. (wimper, wimper, cry, cry) So I hope you learned a lot. Well here are some awesome pics on space. BYEEE!

Science Fun:)



That's s lot of culurs!





Its like a burst of awesomeness!
