Astronomers Using Eso's Telescope

246 Words1 Page

Astronomers Using ESO's Telescope have found the biggest and hottest double star that have parts actually overlapping each other. These two stars in the system VFTS 352 might be pummeling to its demise soon, because the two stars could merge and create a colossal star, or form a double black hole. These two stars are about 160,000 light-years from Earth. These stars are so close that the surface of each star are overlapping each other. This double star has a total mass of about fifty-seven times bigger than the Sun, but it also has the hottest surface temperatures rising above 40,000 degrees Celsius. Astronomers predict that this double star will end in a tragic demise in one of two outcomes. One possible result that could happen

    What Mr. Larson went through to find out about the star seemed to be very stressful to him and I’m shocked he still tried to find out more and more about the star. Mr. Larson made the documentary very impactful to the audience and myself, but he also gave strong evidence about his argument with the uses of ethos, logos, and pathos. In the use of ethos, Mr. Larson uses this with his expression with religion. The way he expresses his information, is through the Bible and how the Bible explains the finding of the star.

    “Our stance is not against science. It’s not against the [telescope] itself, It’s against their choice of place,” Lanakila Managauil argued. The Thirty-Meter Telescope, or TMT, is planned to be built on top of Mauna Kea and is going to be used for space research (TMT.org). But, Native Hawaiians protested this telescope being built for many suitable reasons. This telescope should not be built because of the excessive funds, telescopes have already been built on the mountain, and Mauna Kea is sacred land to the Native Hawaiians.

    How does one go about defining things as good and bad? Some things can be good and bad at the same time, like using satellites and computers to solve ecological problems. There are a lot of pros and cons but the cons outweigh the pros because the images will need validation, one can’t trust in a satellite and computer to give all the answers, and time isn’t exactly on their side. Validation has to come from somewhere to make sure the images that are looked at can be trusted. “Without proper validation, satellite data should not be taken at face value.”

Annie Jump Cannon was hired by Edward Pickering, and she worked as “Pickering’s assistant at the Harvard College Observatory” (1). After that, she was credited with coming up with an easy system that divided the stars into seven spectral classes. The spectral classes were as follows: O, B, A, F, G, K, M.

    This could also be a reason people confused the North Star with the dog star. Around 2004 astronomers found a LBV 1806-20, which they believed was the brightest star, this took there mind off of Polaris (North Star) being the brightest star. This star is approximately 5-40 million times as bright as the sun. Astronomers estimated that this star was more than a million times the mass of the sun, but since this star is so bright is will burn out quickly within a million years.

    Advertisements can get old very quickly; they are usually repetitive, boring, and a waste of everyone’s time. People are getting better at ignoring advertisement, but occasionally, some brilliant advisement can be stuck in one’s head. One advertisement for Orion Telescopes was particularly interesting. With just three images, the moon, the American flag, and the Made in China on the flag, it captured the capability of their product and added an ironic twist at the end. The simplistic design, the clear message, and the interesting layout works great together to promote their telescope, and intrigue their American consumer.
