By SpaceBee What are Stars? Stars are astrological objects, made of various gasses, like hydrogen or helium. Stars are held together by their own gravity. When stars die they supernova (Suddenly increasing their brightness due to an explosion, causing them to lose most of their mass). Stars often take millions of years to supernova. Many say a […]
When people cut trees, greenhouse gases, like carbon dioxide which trees normally convert to oxygen for us, get collected in the atmosphere. After that, UV sunlight rays hit the earth, and things like the ocean, mountains, cement, buildings, and icebergs reflect them back up to the sky. The rays reflect back down again instead of […]

The Australopithecus female stood between 1.2m and 1.4 […]

Humans are considered to […]
Programming, or “Coding” is the way humans are able to communicate instructions to computers. They use special programming languages which take words, and translate them to a format that can be understood by computers. The instructions can be just a few lines, or millions of lines of code to complete a specific task. Once code […]
Venus is the hottest planet in the solar system and has an average surface temperature of around 450° C. Of all the planets in our solar system (apart from Earth), Mars is the one most likely to be hospitable to life. There are between 200-400 billion stars and estimated to be billions of galaxies, so […]
