Astronomical satellites are used as a platform to view other planets while communications satellites are used for telecommunications . Other uses include navigation and weather . Fixed satellite services handle hundreds of millions of voice , data , and video transmission tasks across all continents between fixed points on the earth’s surface. Mobile satellite systems help connect remote regions , vehicles, ships and aircraft to other parts of the world and/or other mobile or stationary communications units, in addition to serving as navigation systems. Scientific research satellites provide us with meteorological information , land survey data (e.g., remote sensing), and other different scientific research applications such as earth science , marine science , and atmospheric research . 5) Yes, Algeria has a satellite of its own.

And until now, many people suppose that it was Galileo who proved that it was the Earth that revolved round the sun though Copernicus had published the theory 20 years before Galileo’s birth. The real proof of the Earth’s orbiting the sun came from the Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe ( 1546 – 1601 ).

Sample: The Moon The Moon is an earth satellite orbiting our planet from a distance of 384,000kms on average, and its orbit is in a west-to-east direction. Its surface gravity is only 0.16 that of the Earth (one sixth), and it does not seem to have life on it, since it has neither atmosphere nor water. Minimum and maximum temperatures on it are wide apart, with +110˚C on the sunlit side and –170˚C in lunar nights. The geology of this satellite is rock only, and its age is about 4,6 billion years. Plans to reach the Moon on space crafts have been on scientists’ minds since early 20th century. But they became more concrete when the Russians launched space crafts Sputnik 1 and Sputnik 2 in 1957, the second one carrying dog Laika. In 1961, Yuri Gagarin orbited the Earth, followed by the American astronaut John Glenn in 1962. Finally, America won the honour of reaching the Moon before Russia, when Neil Armstrong set foot on it on July 21st 1969. There are at present plans to build a space base on the Moon, to set a giant telescope and launch space ships from there to distant planets, and perhaps to other solar systems. - 6 - SEQUENCE ONE: READ AND CONSIDER (p.142) Passage : The Solar System , pp.143-144.

  • Disrupting the Land Narrative Forgotten Rabbinic Voices and Their Consequences on the Identitary Temptation in Contemporary Jewish Politics of Messianism David Meyer
    Louvain Studies 42 (2019): 289-307 doi: 10.2143/LS.42.3.3286895 © 2019 by Louvain Studies, all rights reserved Disrupting the Land Narrative Forgotten Rabbinic Voices and Their Consequences on the Identitary Temptation in Contemporary Jewish Politics of Messianism David Meyer Abstract. — Since the creation of the State of Israel in 1948 and in particular since the Six Day War in 1967, messianism has been re-introduced to the forefront of many contemporary rabbinic discourses. An agressive messianism in which the pos- session of the land of Israel has become the key factor in defining a binary logic of “insiders” and “outsiders,” with dire consequences not only for the Palestinian pop- ulations in the land, but also for Jews who do not adhere to the political and reli- gious “official narrative” of the time. But does any messianic reference to the Land infer a decisive concept, fostering identitary temptations? This article, after contex- tualising the emergence of a theological narrative of the land that harbours violent binary discourses, will argue that one can discover other rabbinic ways to evoke the land and its messianic promise. Teachings from the past that, as the paper will argue, could profoundly disrupt the official narrative about the land and its binary outcome. In particular, this article will unearth and explore an important teaching of Bar Hiyya, a 11th-century rabbinic figure, whose teachings and potential mid- rashic sources on the notions of the land and messianism could be of great relevance for those interested today in defusing any identitary temptation. The article will highlight in particular the potential of a midrashic metaphor comparing the Land of Israel to a book, thus paving the way for the construction of a new rabbinic theology of the land of Israel where the dialectic of hermeneutical discourses could diffuse the identitary and binary triggers too often embedded in the messianic land narrative.

Prominent examples are the Phoenicians, the ancient Greeks, the Persians, the Arabians, the Norse, the Austronesian peoples including the Malays, and the Polynesians and the Micronesians of the Pacific Ocean. Antiquity Mediterranean Sailors navigating in the Mediterranean made use of several techniques to determine their location, including staying in sight of Map of the world produced in 1689 by Gerard van Schagen. land, understanding of the winds and their tendencies, knowledge of the sea’s currents, and observation of the positions of the sun and stars.[1] Sailing by hugging the coast would have been ill advised in the Mediterranean and the Aegean Sea due to the rocky and dangerous coastlines and because of the sudden storms that plague the area that could easily cause a ship to crash.[2] Greece The Minoans of Crete are an example of an early Western civilization that used celestial navigation.
