The "Mega Earth"

                                    The "Mega Earth"

The "Mega Earth" is known as the planet Kepler 10-C. The planet is a massive solid planet which weighs 17 more times than earth and is about 2.3 times larger than the earth. The planet is located 560 light years from the Earth. Planets as massive as Kepler 10-C should in theory accumulate hydrogen gas and become a gas giant, but this planet is composed of heavy solids. The planet orbits a sun-like star every forty-five days. The Kepler-10 solar system was formed at least 11 billion years ago, suggesting that the heavy solids appeared much earlier than previously suggested.

What an insightful statement. Kindness is a quality within an individual which is praised by all individuals, if we are kind to others we are favored and renowned among the populace. Our kind actions define us. When we are kind we are esteemed and admired by the individuals within our communities. This admiration provides an individual with a proper reputation and a proper reputation portrays greatness; therefore, kindness prompts admiration.

Is our education System Failing?

                     Is our educational System Failing?

I believe our educational system within the united states is horrible!!! From my own experiences i would love to reform our education system in order to provide students with constant work and engaging activities, and self study. We also need certified teachers who are able to individually work with several students at a time in order to develop their interests. I would love to move to Finland in order to become a student within their education system, but sadly i cannot, therefore i am restrained to my current education system. But ask yourself if we change teachers will the students be able to actually achieve? My answer is maybe. It is not a teacher's job to provide an incentive they are supposed to provide the resources. The student must be willing to learn and provide results. Our state believes we must spend financial resources in order to provide the student with an incentive, but this strategy will not work if the student is unwilling to learn.
