orbital debris

Space junk consist of abandoned equipments and sent rockets to the orbit and which are have not any useful purpose  now. Space junk also known as space debris, orbital debris and space waste. Most of the space debris are the small particles less than one centimeter. These include dust from solid rocket motors, surface degradation products such as paint flakes, and coolant released by RORSAT nuclear powered satellites and its urgency will cause erosive damage, like sandblasting. Shortly, it will send out a powerful stream of sand. Another kind of orbital debris are over ten centimeters, however their amount is less than the small ones’. Against this larger debris, the only protection is to maneuver the spacecraft in order to avoid collision with them. The other types of debris are catalogued by their size too. Unfortunately, today there is critical density, new debris occures  more faster than these objects are removed from the orbit by various natural or manmade forces. Waste in the space rising so fast that its amount reached “tipping point”. As NASA said in 2011 over 22,000 different objects were tracked. Especially, throughout the 1980s, Soviet Union has made a large number of launches. In addition, some projects made by humankind play the role of catalizator in this hazardous process. For example, after Chine destroyed an orbiting weather satellite with a missile in 2007 as part of anti-satellite test, and two satellites collided over Siberia in 2009 the treat from space junk became more pressing.in addition, scientists have stated that these events more than doubled the amount of catalogued debris in the space. Unfortunately, sometimes humankind forget about impacts of their experiments to the Mother nature in order to achieve their purposes as quick as possible. As Kessler said “ The longer you wait to do this the more expensive it is going to be”, so it will be better to prevent the spreading of space particles and debris.

education

 Education is a process during which one is improving, managing his or her self. This process begins at birth and continues through all life. Similarly, some people think that the process of educating start  before birth, so some parents begin to read stories, listen and play music in the period of pregnancy. As I state that education, developing yourself process, is lasting for whole life, nobody has finished it yet and it is impossible I think. Scientists in our days have divided education into formal and informal education. Schools, colleges and universities are the centers, gardens of formal education. Teachers are gardeners, books are tools and students are plants. Hence, in formal education one require support from outside in other words, information sources, it is imaginary without it. The second part is an informal education, which is developed by life experiences and human behaviors, attitudes. In this type of education teach people techniques of surviving in society and gaining respect of others. In other words, it is more significant for one to managing him or her self in the field of informal education rather than formal’s. In the formal education the most difficult task is being a teacher and report the knowledge to students in an effective and frustrated way. In addition, teachers are models for students, so they have a huge impact on students future life. To illustrate, statistics show that 30 % of teachers considered becoming a teacher as the result of their teacher’s influence. As  the role of teachers in society is really very important, they should know the ways of entertaining others. And education is his or her weapon against their illiteracy in science, politics, economics, literature and etc. Children come to primary school without knowing any letter of the alphabet, without knowing how to compute basic arifmetics and graduate from the university having written their own books, invented some kind of devices, machines. This period nearly include 15 years and one can easily see what does education do with humankind. Step by step it makes scientists from illiterates. Overall, education is nutrition for humanity and without it nothing will improve, manage or emerge…
