The document discusses several optical phenomena that can be seen in the sky including halos, auroras, zodiacal light, rainbows, sundogs, anthelia, light pillars, Alexander's band, afterglows, and the Earth's shadow. These phenomena are caused by the reflection, refraction, and scattering of light through ice crystals, water droplets, and particles in the atmosphere and near space. They include colored or white arcs and spots near the sun, multicolored arcs caused by sunlight through raindrops, bright spots on luminous rings to the side of the sun, and diffuse glows along the ecliptic plane or high in the atmosphere at dusk.

The zodiacal light( also called false dawn when seen before daylight) is a faint gleam of verbose sun scattered by interplanetary dust. Brighter around the Sun, it appears in a particularly dark night sky to extend from the Sun's direction in a roughly triangular shape along the wheel, and appears with lower intensity and visibility along the whole ecliptic as the zodiacal band. The entire sky is illuminated by zodiacal light, which contributes to the natural light of a moonless night sky.

Blue Skies, White Clouds and Rainbows
When you were young, did you ever look at the sky and wonder why itâs blue and not your favorite color like pink? And if you were able to fly that you would just sit on a cloud and wondered what it would feel like? It turns out, it wasnât just randomly chosen but is blue for a reason. When the sun shines, there is light reflected in different direction, which come in contact with dust and other particles kind of like scattered sunlight. As a gas molecule is hit, most of the blue light bounces off in all directions while red orange, and yellow light might just pass through.
A lot of the sky is composed of violet but our eyes are not that sensitive to that color, so it appears blue. If the sky were examined with a spectrometer, you would notice the broadband of colors. There is blue light everywhere overhead and when that light then reaches your eyes; you see it everywhere above, making the sky appear blue. The sky might reveal two different colors of blue. The blue color gets lighter towards the horizon than the blue that you see when looking straight up to the sky. This is because we have many different particles in our atmosphere and when these particles are the same or even larger than the wavelength of the light that is already being reflected, a different scattering happens. These particles can be washed out by rain so the sky might be a darker blue following a rainstorm.
If there werenât an atmosphere, the sky would appear black. Even at night the sky has a slight color. This can be from light sources in areas that get in the way of being able to see some of the starts and even planets. When someone is on the moon looking at earth, the sky is black because there is no atmosphere. When it is sunlight, the particles in the atmosphere are larger making it a short distance to get to your eyes but when it comes to sunset, the rays have much further to ...

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Â
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
⢠The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
⢠The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate âany matterâ at âany timeâ under House Rule X.
⢠The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
Â
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesarâs dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empireâs birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empireâs society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Â
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Operation âBlue Starâ is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
TESDA TM1 REVIEWER FOR NATIONAL ASSESSMENT WRITTEN AND ORAL QUESTIONS WITH A...
Â
Natural phenomenon of light
1.
2. A halo is an optical
phenomenon produced by ice
crystals creating coloured or white
arcs and spots in the sky. Many
are near the sun or moon but
others are elsewhere and even in
the opposite part of the sky.
3. An aurora is a natural light display in the
sky, especially in the high latitude regions ,
caused by the collision of solar wind and
magnetospheric charged particles with the
high altitude atmosphere . Most Auroras
occur in a band known as the auroral zone,
which is typically 3 degree to 6 degree wide
in latitude and observed at 0 degree to 20
degree from the geomagnetic poles at all
local times , but often most vividly around
the spring and autumn equinoxes . The
charged particles and solar wind are
directed into the atmosphere by the Earthâs
magnetosphere .A geomagnetic storm
expands the auroral zone to lower latitudes.
4. Zodiacal light is a faint ,roughly
triangular ,diffuse white glow seen in the
night sky that appears to extend up from
the vicinity of the sun along the elliptic or
zodiac .Caused by sunlight scattered by
space dust In the zodiacal cloud ,it is so
faint that either moonlight or light pollution
renders it invisible .The dust forms a thick
pancake âshaped cloud in the solar
system collectively known as the zodiacal
cloud ,which occupies the same plane as
the ecliptic. In fact the zodiacal light
covers the entire sky being responsible in
large part for the total skylight on a
moonless night
5. A rainbow is an optical and meteorological
phenomenon that is caused by reflection and
refraction of light in water droplets in Earthâs
atmosphere resulting in a spectrum of light
appearing in the sky . It takes the form of a
multicolored arc .Rainbows caused by sunlight
always appear in the section of sky directly
opposite to the Sun. All rainbows are full circles ,
however the average observer sees only
approximately the upper half of the arc , the
illuminated droplets above the horizon from the
observerâs line of sight.
In a âprimary rainbowâ ,the arc shows red on the
outer part and violet in the inner side . This
rainbow is caused by light refracted when
entering a droplet of water ,then reflected inside
on the back of the droplet tend refracted again
when leaving it.
6. A sun dog , is an atmospheric
phenomenon that creates bright spots
of light in the sky, often on a luminous
ring or halo on either side of the sun.
Sundogs may appear as a coloured
patch of light to the left or right of the
sun, 22° distant and at the same
distance above the horizon as the sun,
and in ice halos. They can be seen
anywhere in the world during any
season, but they are not always
obvious or bright. Sundogs are best
seen and are most conspicuous when
the sun is low.
7. An anthelion is a rare optical
phenomenon appearing on the
parhelic circle opposite to the sun as
a faint white halo , not unlike a sundog.
How anthelions are formed is disputed.
Walter Tape, among others, has
argued they are not separate haloes,
but simply where various haloes
caused by horizontally oriented
column-shaped ice crystals coincide
on the parhelic circle to create a bright
spot. If this theory is correct, anthelia
should only appear together with these
other haloes.
8. A light pillar is a visual
phenomenon created by
the reflection of light from ice crys
tals with near
horizontal parallel planar
surfaces. The light can come from
the Sun (usually at or low to the
horizon) in which case the
phenomenon is called a sun
pillar or solar pillar. It can also
come from the Moon or from
terrestrial sources such as
streetlights.
9. Alexander's band or Alexander's
dark band is an optical
phenomenon associated
with rainbows which was named
after Alexander of
Aphrodisias who first described it
in 200 AD. It occurs due to the
deviation angles of the primary
and secondary rainbows. Both
bows exist due to an optical
effect called the angle of
minimum deviation.
The refractive
index of water prevents light
from being deviated at smaller
angles.
10. An afterglow is a broad high
arch of whitish or rosy light
appearing in the sky due to
very fine particles
of dust suspended in the high
regions of the atmosphere. An
afterglow may appear above
the highest clouds in the hour
of deepening twilight,
or reflected from the
high snowfields in mountain
regions long after sunset. The
particles produce
a scattering effect upon the
component parts of white light.
11. The Earth's shadow or Earth
shadow (also sometimes known
as the dark segment) are names
for the shadow that the Earth itself
casts on its atmosphere. This
shadow is often visible from the
surface of the Earth, as a dark
band in the sky near the horizon.
This atmospheric phenomenon
can sometimes be seen twice a
day, around the times
of sunset and sunrise.
