301: The Timeline of the Telescope
It is actually quite easy to make a timeline with regards to the invention of the telescope as well as how it has evolved over the years. Much has been written about the telescope and good records have been kept with regards to new technologies and inventions. Basically, the telescope timeline looks something like this:
1609 - Galileo first in
302: The Troll A A Record Breaking Gas Platform
Rising out of the North Sea where it takes a lashing from some of the roughest waters on the planet, the Troll A platform is one of the largest and most complex engineering projects in the world and, when it was towed into place in 1996, became the largest structure ever to be made and stands in the Guinness Book of Records as the largest offshore
303: The Water Purification Process
The water purification process is complex and diverse, the result of the many treatment phases means that dirty water can be cleaned until it is drinkable. There are however many different varieties and methods related to water purification, understanding the elements of each will give the reader a greater appreciation of the effort that goes into
304: The Wonders Of Glue
Glue is used for many things that we use in our everyday lives. It can be used to help us fix things for our kids and fix things around the house. It is also used when you get cut to help seal it up so you don't keep bleeding, and it helps heal it. It may burn a little like the sores are on fire, but it will stop and you can go back to work. You ca
305: Thermodynamics In Physics And Our Environment
Thermodynamics is the field of physics that describes and correlates the physical properties of macroscopic systems of matter and energy by relating such qualities temperature, pressure, and volume. It also takes in energy, heat, and work. Thermodynamics was founded between 1850 and 1860 by R.W. Joule about the quantitative equivalence between mech
306: Tips On How To Use Lubricants
Friction induces resistance and that causes extreme heat to be generated. This heat can damage the materials plus it requires more force to make the parts work if there is no lubricant.
That is definitely not to say that friction is bad because it is frictions which helps in everyday work without us knowing about it like automobiles on the road

308: Understanding Immunoassays for Dummies
Immunoassay is a test in biochemistry that measures a specific concentration of a substance within a biological liquid. This means that an immunoassay test can be conducted on blood, serum or urine to measure the concentration of a substance that is found in that liquid sample.
The immunoassay test uses a specific antibody in order to test the
309: Understanding the Function of Pheromones in Mammals
Almost all mammals do release these pheromones for attracting their partners and also in order to send alarm signals. The mammals have found out the best use of these pheromones than human beings and they are getting benefited in all senses. We can distinguish the pheromones in mammals into two categories depending on their functions.
1. Release
310: Unlocking the Chemistry of Pheromones
Pheromones are any chemical signal used to communicate between the members of a species. The existence of pheromones has been studied most thoroughly with respect to insects, but more complex species likely also possess pheromones.
The above diagram, by Peter Fluri, shows a female of the codling moth, Cydia pomonella, raising her abdomen and pro
311: Use Of Ceramic Ball Bearings To Reduce Friction
Ceramic ball bearings are now being used at every conceivable place instead of the regular ball bearings. Ceramic being the material used in most of the place where intense heat is generated.
Friction is general caused by two surfaces being rubbed against each other which causes resistance and generates heat. Scientists discovered the wheel an
312: Welcome to the World of Phernones
Phermones as defined in Wikipedia - a chemical that triggers a natural behavioral response in another member of the same species. There are alarm pheromones, food trail pheromones, sex pheromones, and many others that affect behavior or physiology. Their use among insects has been particularly well documented, although many vertebrates and plants a
313: What About Lucy Is She The Missing Link
Lucy is another icon of purported evolution which Darwinists are reluctant to give up, even in the face of indisputable evidence that proves Lucy was nothing more than an ape conjured up to fool people into believing that Lucy was changing into a human.
Anthropologists proved in 1987 that Lucy was just an ape. Yet Lucy is still claimed as a mis
314: What Are The Different Types Of Parasite
A parasite is a living organism that thrives in a host, either human or other animal. Most often, a parasite sucks the nutrients of the host. There are also parasites that may kill the host. However, other hosts thrive even with a parasite along for the ride. If the host is healthy, the effect of the parasite may be small, but the host will not be
315: What Do Solar Winds Have To Do With Life On Mars
The concept that there is life on other planets and in other galaxies is widely popular. It is the core idea of countless science fiction novels. Many television shows, including the classic Star Trek series, and major movies have been spawned by this concept.
Some blockbuster movies that come to mind include Close Encounters of the Third Kind
