Extravehicular Space Suit
[ send me this essay ]
An 8 page paper discussing the components of this highly advanced piece of space equipment. The astronaut’s proximal point of survival during extravehicular activities in space, the extravehicular space suit (ESS) has steadily evolved over the years to the form in which it exists today. The ESS is the complete unit, but it is comprised of several critical, nonnegotiable components. There is no degree of hierarchy outside of the primary life support system; all components are of equal importance to the astronaut when performing extravehicular activities. Life support, communications and protection for the astronauts can be considered to have been perfected. The future direction of ESS evolution likely will be that of reducing bulk and increasing mobility. Includes an appendix of Internet sources of diagrams and photographs. The MLA-style bibliography lists 11 sources and 23 footnotes.

Galileo’s Heliocentric Theory and Its Oppression by the Church
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 5 page tutorial language paper discussing the heliocentric theory and the oppression of the Church of this theory and Galileo. Before the time of Copernicus and Galileo in the 16th and 17th centuries, the Church supported the general scientific view that the earth was the center of the universe, also known as the geocentric view. Copernicus theorized that the sun was the center of the universe and the earth and other celestial bodies revolved around it, also known as the heliocentric theory. When doing research with his telescope, Galileo noticed that Jupiter’s moons revolved around Jupiter in a similar pattern expressed by Copernican theory and from that point on, Galileo tried to further heliocentric theories by his publications, letters, dialogues and exhibitions. This eventually lead to his condemnation by the Inquisition as he was charged, sentenced and imprisoned for publicizing works that were contrary to the Scriptures. Although he and all the works of Copernicus were prohibited by the Inquisition and Galileo later died while still a prisoner, his colleagues and friends continued in their support of him and his theories which were later proved a century after his death and recently accepted by the Vatican. Critics were later to conclude that it was not the theories of Galileo that necessarily were rejected by the Church but his insistence upon them as the “absolute truth” which was reserved for the Scriptures. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
