The Act was passed by a Parliament and had listed its grievances against the Church as early as 1529. Rather than have a king foist the act on the people at a time when religion was a major factor in the lives of all people of the town, Thomas Cromwell came up with the idea of giving the act a…

It also lies in the direction of the center of our Milky Way galaxy, and being in such a dense part of the sky is packed with many interesting astronomical objects worth observing. 2. The constellation I've chosen, Sagittarius, represents the centaur Chiron. Most centaurs were seen as bestial, after all, they were half…

    Amphitryon written by Heinrich Von Kleist, a God by the name of Jupiter is wrongfully interested in Alcmena, the wife of Amphitryon and decides he must enjoy her favors, all whilst her husband is away at battle. This act of unknowing adultery by Alcmena is greatly related to the quote above.

    these two goals will become increasingly intertwined as better instruments give us the power to study the atmospheres of smaller, potentially habitable planets. In the meantime we can look at the brightest targets, typically Jupiter-sized planets in close-orbits, i.e. “hot Jupiters,” with current ground-based telescopes. I propose to develop a ground-breaking technique that uses optical high-resolution spectroscopy to study the atmospheric properties of other worlds, including their composition,…
