This article presents how planet Earth was born, how it operates and how it is protected from threats coming from outer space. In addition to showing how the Earth operates as a dynamic system, it shows how our planet will disappear completely when the Sun migrates out of Earth's orbit in about 1 billion years.
The Moon is a relatively large, terrestrial, planet-like natural satellite, with a diameter about one-quarter of Earth's. It is the largest moon in the Solar System relative to the size of its planet, although Charon is larger relative to the dwarf planet Pluto. The natural satellites of other planets are also referred to as "moons", after Earth's.
The gravitational attraction between Earth and the Moon causes tides on Earth. The same effect on the Moon has led to its tidal locking: its rotation period is the same as the time it takes to orbit Earth. As a result, it always presents the same face to the planet. As the Moon orbits Earth, different parts of its face are illuminated by the Sun, leading to the lunar phases; the dark part of the face is separated from the light part by the solar terminator.
Details of the Earth–Moon system, showing the radius of each object and the Earth–Moon barycenter. The Moon's axis is located by Cassini's third law.
Due to their tidal interaction, the Moon recedes from Earth at the rate of approximately 38 mm/yr. Over millions of years, these tiny modifications—and the lengthening of Earth's day by about 23 µs/yr—add up to significant changes.[221] During the Devonian period, for example, (approximately 410 Mya) there were 400 days in a year, with each day lasting 21.8 hours.[222]
The Moon may have dramatically affected the development of life by moderating the planet's climate. Paleontological evidence and computer simulations show that Earth's axial tilt is stabilized by tidal interactions with the Moon.[28] Some theorists think that without this stabilization against the torques applied by the Sun and planets to Earth's equatorial bulge, the rotational axis might be chaotically unstable, exhibiting chaotic changes over millions of years, as appears to be the case for Mars.[223]
Viewed from Earth, the Moon is just far enough away to have almost the same apparent-sized disk as the Sun. The angular size (or solid angle) of these two bodies match because, although the Sun's diameter is about 400 times as large as the Moon's, it is also 400 times more distant.[186] This allows total and annular solar eclipses to occur on Earth.
The most widely accepted theory of the Moon's origin, the giant-impact hypothesis, states that it formed from the collision of a Mars-size protoplanet called Theia with the early Earth. This hypothesis explains (among other things) the Moon's relative lack of iron and volatile elements and the fact that its composition is nearly identical to that of Earth's crust.[224]

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.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
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.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
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 “any matter” at “any time” 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
History and formation of the Earth (Presentation #2 Bilogy L2 project)
1. History and formation of the Earth
Presentation #2
Juan Sebastián Rodríguez Cubillos
Biology L2 project
9-A
2. History in general:
• The history of the Earth concerns the
development of the planet Earth from its
formation to the present day. Nearly all
branches of natural science have contributed
to the understanding of the main events of
the Earth's past. The age of Earth is
approximately one-third of the age of the
universe. An immense amount of biological
and geological change has occurred in that
time span.
3. History in general:
• Earth formed around 4.54 billion years ago
by accretion from the solar nebula. Volcanic outgassing
probably created the primordial atmosphere, but it
contained almost no oxygen and would have been toxic
to humans and most modern life. Much of the Earth
was molten because of extreme volcanism and
frequent collisions with other bodies. One very large
collision is thought to have been responsible for tilting
the Earth at an angle and forming the Moon. Over
time, the planet cooled and formed a solid crust,
allowing liquid water to exist on the surface.
6. First continents:
• Mantle convection, the process that drives
plate tectonics today, is a result of heat
flow from the Earth's interior to the Earth's
surface.It involves the creation of
rigid tectonic plates at mid-oceanic ridges.
These plates are destroyed by subduction into
the mantle atsubduction zones.
7. Oceans and atmosphere:
• Earth is often described as having had three
atmospheres. The first atmosphere, captured
from the solar nebula, was composed of light
(atmophile) elements from the solar nebula,
mostly hydrogen and helium. A combination
of the solar wind and Earth's heat would have
driven off this atmosphere, as a result of
which the atmosphere is now depleted of
these elements compared to cosmic
abundances
8. Formation of the moon:
• Earth's only natural satellite, the Moon, is
larger relative to its planet than any other
satellite in the solar system. During the Apollo
program, rocks from the Moon's surface were
brought to Earth. Radiometric dating of these
rocks has shown that the Moon is
4.53 ± .01 billion years old, formed at least
30 million years after the solar system.
9. Geologic map of north America (represented in colors
of the rocks that belong to different Earth Eras):
10. Protozoic Eon:
• The Proterozoic eon lasted from 2.5 Ga to
542 Million years ago In this time
span, cratons grew into continents with
modern sizes. The change to an oxygen-rich
atmosphere was a crucial development. The
life in this Eon mostly developed in
the prokaryotes into eukaryotes
organisms also in multicellular forms.
11. Phanerozoic Eon:
• The Phanerozoic is the current eon on Earth,
which started approximately 542 million years
ago. It consists of three eras:
The Paleozoic, Mesozoic, and Cenozoic, and is
the time when multi-cellular life greatly
diversified into almost all of the organisms
known today.
12. Mesozoic and Cenozoic Era:
• The Mesozoic era lasted from 251 Million years ago to
66 Million years ago. It is subdivided into
the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous periods. The era
began with the Permian–Triassic extinction event, the
most severe extinction event in the fossil record; 95%
of the species on Earth died out.
• The Cenozoic era began at 66 Ma, and is subdivided
into the Paleogene, Neogene, and Quaternary periods.
Mammals and birds were able to survive
the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event that killed
off the dinosaurs and many other forms of life, and this
is the era during which they diversified into their
modern forms.
