Asteroids!

An asteroid is one among millions of small solar bodies which revolve around the sun every day. They consist of rocks, metals and they can also contain organic compounds. Asteroids are concentrated mainly in the region known as the asteroid belt which lies between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. They can be as very large in diameter or can be just as small as a grain of sand. They are neither big enough to be called planets nor are they as small as comets. The asteroid belt is divided into an inner belt and an outer belt. The inner belt, which is made up of asteroids that are within 250 million miles of the sun, contains asteroids that are made of metals. The outer belt consists of rocky asteroids.

On January 1, 1801, Giuseppe Piazzi discovered the first asteroid which he thought at first was a comet. He named this asteroid Ceres, after the Sicilian Goddess of grain. It is now, since 2006 considered a dwarf planet, along with Pluto, Eris, Makemake and Haumea. Soon, other large asteroids like Pallas, Juno and Vista were discovered. By the end of the 19th century, several hundred asteroids have been discovered.

According to present day astronomers, asteroids are debris left behind by the formation of the Solar System that could not come together to form a planet because of the effect of Jupiter’s gravitational pull.

Asteroids have been hitting the Earth for millions of years. However, due to the friction with Earth’s atmosphere most of the asteroids get burnt up. The asteroids that enter the Earth’s atmosphere are called meteors, while the ones that get burnt and appear as shooting stars are called meteorites. The largest crater caused by an asteroid hit is the Chicxulub Crater in Mexico that is approximately 111 miles in diameter.

The largest evidence of an asteroid hit is in the Vredefort Crater in South Africa that is approximately 186 miles in diameter. It is believed by many scientists and researchers that an asteroid impact was the cause behind the extinction of the dinosaurs around 65 million years ago.

Did you know that asteroids have moons? The reason as to why an asteroid is often confused with a planet is because like planets, they too have their own moons. In 1993, a spacecraft discovered that the asteroid 243 Ida has its own moon!

The asteroids which are situated close to earth are known as nearearth asteroids. There are three types of near-earth asteroids, termed as the Amors, the Apollos and the Atens.

243 Ida and its moon Dactyl. Dactyl is the first satellite of an asteroid to be discovered

Pretty Pea Puffers Pea puffers are the tiny little fish...with the long list off names! They are sometimes called pea, dwarf, bumblebee, blue-eyed, pygmy or malabarr puffers. They are from inland waters off India to China. You might find a small school off them in a river, lake, floodplain and even sometimes in a brackish waterr estuary.

Pea puffers are intelligent little fish and very inquisitive. In the wild they will live in areas with lots off plants and many hiding places. They will set up theirr own territory and defend it very well. They each will swim in theirr own unique pattern and are quite fun to watch.

Pea puffers are carnivores, and grow very strong and sharp teeth. To keep theirr teeth ground down, they will munch on snails. Eating snails makes them a molluscivore. They will also eat brine shrimp, bloodworms and other small animals and insects. The main criteria off a pea puffers diet is size, since they are so small!

Try This!

Createe a pea puffer!

What you will need: balloon newspaper paste paint brushes

Pea puffers are unique forr puffers, because when they are adults you can tell males from females. Males have a dark line down theirr bellies, and will also have little lines around theirr eyes.

Both males and females will have the “blue eyes” off theirr otherr name.

Following is Bernice Curry’s essay: “Disappointment is not forever. Yes, you may think that because you failed your test, you will never be able to get your grade up. You may encounter multiple setbacks in your life, but that grief and that hardship will not last forever. We as human beings have to able to accept the fact that we are not perfect and we will not succeed

Amelia Earhart Amelia Mary Earhart was born on July 24, 1897 in Atchison, Kansas. She was the oldest of the two sisters in her family, and often loved to play with her younger sister Grace Murial or “Pidge”. Amelia loved to read, and grew up to write several books of her own including “20 hrs. 40 min.”, “The Fun of It”, and “The Last Flight”. She is known as the first female aviator to fly across the Atlantic Ocean, and she left behind a great mystery when she disappeared. She set many records, stood for the equal rights amendment, and inspired many girls as a rolemodel.

In December of 1920, Amelia and her father visited Frank Hawks, who was an air racing pilot. After taking a short flight, she knew flying was perfect for her and she was determined to learn how. She worked many different jobs and saved up enough to go to a flight school in 1921. Her first airplane was a secondhand yellow Kinner Airster biplane, which she fondly called “the Canary”. Amelia set her first record in that plane in 1922, as the first woman to reach an altitude of 14,000 feet. The next year she became the 16th woman to be issued a pilot’s license. Eventually she sold “the Canary” and another yellow Kinner, settling for a two passenger automobile called a Kissel “Speedster” so she could take her mother on a transcontinental trip with stops in Boston and throughout the West. She stayed in Boston tem-

porarily to continue at Columbia University for a few months and then found work as a teacher and then as a social worker in 1925.

She became a local celebrity in Medford, Massachusetts after writing about aviation in the local newspaper.

Amelia Earhart first flew across the Atlantic as a passenger to Wilmer Stultz, and in the project she met her eventual second husband George Putnam. After she returned to the U.S., she went on lecture tours and was dubbed the name of “Lady Lindy” as she looked like the solo flyer Charles Lindburgh. Her fame grew as she earned the Distinguished Flying Cross from Congress when she became the first woman to fly across the Atlantic, along with solo flights from Hawaii to California and an attempt at circumnavigating the globe. This last voyage was her final flight en route from Lae, New Guinea to Howland Island, her plane mysteriously disappeared in the Pacific Ocean. The United States government spent $4 million looking for Earhart, which made it the most costly and intensive air and sea search in history at that time.

Did You Know?

• Earhart refused to don typical flying gear—she wore a suit or dress instead of the "high-bread aviation togs," a close-fitting hat instead of a helmet, didn't put on her goggles until she taxied to the end of the field, and removed them immediately upon landing.

• She developed a friendship with Eleanor Roosevelt, who wanted to learn how to fly. Earhart had planned to teach her, for which the First Lady even got her student permit.

• Earhart met Orville Wright at the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia in 1937, the same year she disappeared.

It’s Fun To Play The Bells!

Bells are a percussion instrument. They can be made from various materials including clay, glass, or metal. They range in shape and size. They may be played by lightly shaking it as in hand bells or by striking it using a metal or wooden striker or mallet.

Chimes are small bells which are arranged in a musical sequence. Carillons are a group of tuned bells no less than 23 pieces.

Bells can be seen and heard on clock towers such as the famous Rajabai Tower in Mumbai.

It was near Babylon when the oldest bells were believed to have been found.

They have been widely used throughout history in different parts of the world like Egypt, England, Japan, China and India.

They have been used for various purposes such as calling people to pray or announcing the start of a battle.

The largest bell can be found in Moscow and it’s called Tsar

Kolokol III. It weighs 400,000 pounds but was never rung and was damaged in a fire.

A notable musician who used bells in some of his compositions was Wolfgang A m a d e u s Mozart.

Famous Bells: • The Liberty Bell is a 2,080 pounds American bell of great historic significance, located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It previously hung in Independence Hall and was rung on July 4, 1776 to mark American independence.

• Big Ben is the fourth largest bell in the British Isles, after The Olympic Bell (used at the opening of the 2012 Olympic Games), Great Paul (St Paul's Cathedral, City of London) and Great George (Anglican Cathedral, Liverpool). It is the hour bell of the Great Clock in the Clock Tower at the Palace of Westminster, the home of the Houses of Parliament in the United Kingdom.

• The World Peace Bell was the largest functioning swinging bell until 2006. It is located in Newport, Kentucky, United States, and was cast by the Paccard Foundry of France. The bell itself weighs 66,000 pounds. With clapper and supports, the total weight (during swings when the bell is tolled) is 89,390 pounds.
