Moon is said to be the only natural satellite of the Earth. While there are many such satellites in the solar system it has the uniqueness of being the same size as the object around which it orbits.

In depth description of the Moon/s phases and why they are as they are. Uses some great internet animations of various situations explaining why we see what we see from Earth. Also discusses the tides and why they are caused by the moon's gravity.
This is a presentation about our Earth's moon. It is extremely extensive and is wonderful for academic purposes. It's extremely easy to edit, and this is sure to get you that A+ you've been wanting.
The solar system is made up of the Sun, the planets that orbit the Sun, their satellites, dwarf planets and many, many small objects, like asteroids and comets. All of these objects move and we can see these movements. We notice the Sun rises in the eastern sky in the morning and sets in the western sky in the evening. We observe different stars in the sky at different times of the year.

Operation “Blue Star” 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.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
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 Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s 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 Empire’s 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.
2. What is the Moon?
• A natural satellite
• One of more than 96 moons in
our Solar System
• The only moon of the planet
Earth
3. • The moon is a “natural satellite”.
• A satellite is anything the orbits a planet.
• Artificial satellites, ones made by humans,
have four main uses:
– Communications
– Monitoring the weather
– Observing the Earth
– Exploring the solar system
4. Where is the moon?
• About 384,000 km
(240,000 miles)
from Earth
• 3,468 km (2,155
miles) in diameter
(about ¼ the size of
Earth)
5. How does the moon move?
• It revolves or orbits the Earth about
every 27 days
• It rotates on its axis once every 27 days
• Since the moon rotates and revolves at
the same rate, the same side of Moon
always faces Earth
6. What’s up there?
• No atmosphere
• No liquid water
• Extreme temperatures
– Daytime = 130C
(265°F)
– Nighttime = -190C (-
310 F)
• 1/6 Earth’s gravity
– (Take your weight and
divide it by six)
9. Craters
• Up to 2500 km (1,553 miles) across
• Most formed by meteorite impacts on the Moon
• Some formed by volcanic action inside the Moon
10. Maria
• Originally thought to be
“seas” by early
astronomers
• Darkest parts of lunar
landscape
• Filled by lava after crash
of huge meteorites on
lunar surface 3-4 billion
years ago
• Mostly basalt rock
12. How about the side we can’t see?
• First seen by Luna 3
Russian space probe in
1959
• Surface features
different from near
side
– More craters
– Very few maria
13. • Moonlight is reflected sunlight
• Half the moon’s surface is
always lit
• From Earth we see different
amounts of the Moon’s lit
surface
• The amount we see is called a
“phase”
Why does it seem to
change shape?
16. Lunar Eclipses
• Moon moves into
Earth’s shadow – this
shadow darkens the
Moon
• About 2-3 per year
• Can last up to 4 hours
17. Solar Eclipses
• Moon moves between
Earth and Sun
• Moon casts a shadow
on part of the Earth
• Total eclipses rare –
only once every 360
years from one
location!
18. The Tides
• Tides caused by pull of Moon’s gravity on Earth
– High tide
• Side facing the Moon and side facing away from the Moon
• About every 12 ½ hours
– Low tide –
• In between high tides
19. Exploring the
Moon
• Neil Armstrong - first
human on the Moon
– July 20, 1969
• Six Apollo missions
– 1969-1972
– 382 kg (842 lbs) rocks
• 12 Americans have
walked on the moon
