Causes And Controlling Of Pond Algae
Filamentous algae and planktonic algae are the most common types of algae present in ponds.
Out of various forms of algae, Planktonic algae are an integral part of food chain in the ponds. It is because of its excess that the pond gets its distinctive soupy pea green color. Filamentous algae are the hair-like
362: Squids Attract Bacteria By Their Slime
If you have ever been inquisitive about the vast variety of creatures living in the depths of the blue sea, you must have discovered a plethora of creatures living underwater. The salmon on your plate, great white sharks, octopuses and squids are among the thousands of organisms that live under the sea. Unlike terrestrial animals, aquatic life is v
363: Technology Used In Astronomy Today
Astronomy is a topic in science. For most of astronomy, there are scientific instruments in use. These can be telescopes, which have different technologies, and also that of using computers. In this article, we will take a look at technology used in astronomy today.
Since the dawn of time, man has looked up at the stars in amazement. What were t
364: Telescopes Or Binoculars For Astronomy
Do you want to get into the fun scientific hobby of astronomy? First you will need a scientific instrument which will allow the heavens to come to you! This can be done with a telescope or even astronomy binoculars. In this article, we will take a look at both options.
There are different benefits to both owning a telescope or binoculars for ast

Just back from the 21st Ethanol Conference and Trade Show, here are some comments I heard that are good reasons to be optimistic about the future of the ethanol industry.
1. “America must become energy independent and ethanol is one step in that process.” Nebraska Governor
366: The Affects of Frozen Water And Dew
Do you know what the frost on your cars and the ground is? It is morning dew, which is water that comes in the morning when you wake up. It will be on your grass, trees, leaves, windows, and everywhere that you can see outside. The frost only comes when it is cold outside, so don't walk on it with your bare feet because your feet will feel so cold
367: The Beginning of the Telescope
One day hundreds of years ago, a man named Galileo Galilei had the idea that if he could fashion some sort of instrument to look into the night sky, he could see the stars and planets better. Thus, the telescope was born. Since then, telescopes have evolved into powerful instruments that allow us to research planets, stars, and explore the night
368: The Benefits and Dangers Of Chlorine
Many people were alarmed in the past few years of the surfacing news on the possible dangers from chlorine. This news was backed by clinical studies and researches that were done on tap water. Researchers and experts have stressed the fact that dangers of chlorine in pools, showers and cleaning products. People should not forget that there are bene
369: The End Of The Dinosaurs
The Jurassic and Cretaceous periods are known as the time of the dinosaurs. During these two vast eras of time the world was dominated by these giant reptiles. Some of the sauropod herbivores are the largest animals to have ever walked the planet, and the Tyrannosaurus Rex is the largest ever land predator. The periods also saw the development of f
370: The Exciting Possibilities Of A Liquid Mirror Telescope
A telescope is a viewing instrument that utilizes the refraction or reflecting of light rays and allows for images to be brought closer. This capturing of light is accomplished through a component that is called the objective. The objective is that part of the telescope which, through the captured light, provides an image of the object that is be
371: The History of the Telescope
The history of the telescope dates back to the early 1600's when an Italian mathematician named Galileo Galilei peered through an odd new device he had invented to look at the stars in the night sky. Suddenly, this well known and familiar place revealed itself as a barely exposed mystery. It was then that Galileo knew that his telescope was a gro
372: The Importance Of Using A Dissolved Oxygen Analyser In Fish Tanks
The scientific world is never short on impressing us on their wonderful experiments and tricks on finding new information about our human race. One of the things that people with fish tanks will know and use are dissolved oxygen analysers. These measure the amount of dissolved oxygen in liquid and are typically measured in PPM (parts per million).
373: The Importance Of Venus In The Solar System
The solar system consists of nine planets and the Venus planet is the second planet of the solar system. The Sun and the planet Mercury form the structure of the solar system and the solar system is 360 degree circular in shape.
The planet Venus is positioned the second from the Sun and it takes nearly 225 days for revolving around the Sun. Ven
374: The Importance Of Water Purification To The World
Water is the key to a person's survival because without water survival is simply not an option. However, water has to be purified in order to drink otherwise bacteria in the water can be harmful to your organs if drunk in normal consumption. This is highlighted especially in third world countries such as Ethiopia and Gambia where many people die
375: The Large Hadron ColliderMaking Physics Almost Interesting
You may be forgiven for thinking that LHC is a new type of drug designed to be smoked in a pipe, but It is in fact the a piece of scientific equipment which will hopefully explain how we got here today.
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is the biggest, most expensive science experiment the world has ever seen. Two years late and four times over b
