Frequently Asked Questions

How does the sample come back to Earth?

NASA - Frequently Asked Questions
The sample return capsule, still attached to the main Genesis spacecraft, will be aligned to its proper entry orientation about six hours before entry. At that time it will be spun to 15 revolutions per minute, adding stability for its descent into Earth's atmosphere. The capsule will be released two hours later. After the capsule is released, the main spacecraft will be diverted so it cannot collide with the sample return capsule.

Is the sample safe to bring to Earth?

NASA - Frequently Asked Questions
The Genesis sample, consisting of protons, ions and atoms from the Sun, does not pose any risk to the Earth. The National Research Council's Space Studies Board determined that the sample has no potential for containing life or other material of concern. The samples are handled in clean rooms to protect them from contamination by Earth material -- not the other way around. They will be housed for study at the Advanced Curation Laboratory at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston.

Why does Bhagwan Swaminarayan decide to come to earth?

The Original || Shree Swaminarayan Sampraday || - F.A.Q
quot;When there is a fall in Dharma (righteousness) and a rise in Adharma (non-righteousness), Shree Hari will take a human form on this earth in order to protect the good, destroy evil and establish Dharma." This is evident from the Avtars (incarnations) that have taken place over the years. Swaminarayan Bhagwan had to take birth in Kali-Yug (the darkest of the 4 ages of time), as evil and atrocities had reached levels none could imagine.

HOW DOES GEOTHERMAL HEAT GET UP TO EARTH'S SURFACE?

Geothermal Education Office - Power From the Earth's Heat
The heat from the earth's core continuously flows outward. It transfers (conducts) to the surrounding layer of rock, the mantle. When temperatures and pressures become high enough, some mantle rock melts, becoming magma. Then, because it is lighter (less dense) than the surrounding rock, the magma rises (convects), moving slowly up toward the earth's crust, carrying the heat from below. Sometimes the hot magma reaches all the way to the surface, where we know it as lava.

What is fulvic and why does Vital Earth put it in their products?

Frequently Asked Questions about fulvic acid minerals and li...
Fulvic, a natural ionic molecule, is rapidly being recognized as an important key in many scientific breakthroughs of the 21st century. Fulvic is one of the most crucial factors in the reversal and prevention of disease, as well as the maintenance of good health. Nature made it abundantly obtainable, but like many things, man has interfered with this vital process and it is no longer available in adequate quantities in the foods we eat.

Vic, want a small sample when I come to Quad state?

Blacksmithing and Metalworking Q&A : anvilfire Guru page...
For me the metal is ready to weld once it and the flux looks like a pat of butter under a broiler that is just starting to melt. try the buttrer thing first so you know. Once you get the metal to the anvil hit it, but hit it fairly lightly. It will have a fairly mush sound. But once you have a good weld it will have a more solid sound. But before welding I would suggest that you practise your movements etc first. So that you will know precisly what you are to do, and can do it with out thinking.

Well, at school in year 7 we had table groups, and we had to come up with a name. Ours was really long (thought up by me! :D) but for security reasons, I cannot tell you what it is ;~; . Anyway, our logo was a cookie in a blender. I called it "A crunchie in a blender." I loved that name, and when I created this site, I immediately thought of "Crunchieinablender.com."

Where does the minimum sample size of 100 come from?

ConsumerReports.org - Consumer Reports Car Reliability FAQ 1...
Our statisticians have determined that a minimum sample of 100 is sufficient to allow us to report statistically-meaningful differences among models. With larger sample sizes, we could detect even finer differences among models. However, using a higher threshold for minimum sample size, we would have insufficient data for most lower-volume models, as well as new models introduced late in the model year.

How does the Earth benefit from lightning?

NSSL Frequently Asked Questions
The earth benefits from lightning in several ways. First, lightning helps the Earth maintain electrical balance. The Earth is recharged by thunderstorms. The Earth's surface and the atmosphere conduct electricity easily - -the Earth is charged negatively and the atmosphere, positively. There is always a steady current of electrons flowing upwards from the entire surface of the Earth. Thunderstorms help transfer the negative charges back to Earth (lightning is generally negatively charged).

Does the male urine sample have to be a first catch urine?

Clearview - FAQ
Yes. The first catch urine must be collected into a clean dry container. The patients should be instructed not to urinate for at least one hour prior to sample collection. If the urine sample is not to be tested within 6 hours it may be stored at 2-8oC for up to 5 days but cannot be frozen.

Does the male urine sample have to be diluted in D.H2O?

Clearview - FAQ
Yes. The purpose of using a diluted urine sample is to ensure all salts are dissolved before centrifugation so that only cellular material is spun down on centrifugation. If the urine is not diluted in D.H2O there will be a greater proportion of inhibitory substances present, which may interfere with the test.

Why does my floor not look like the sample in the showroom?

Flooring Frequently Asked Questions
Although your floor should look similar to the sample in the showroom, there are certain instances when your floor might look slightly different. As a tree grows and matures, over approximately 60 years, it absorbs minerals and other essential elements, which can change the color and appearance of the wood. Even wood from the same tree can show signs of variance. For instance, "younger wood" closer to the outside of the tree will be lighter than the wood from the center portion.

If the Messiah has already come, then why isn't there peace on earth?

Questions, challenges, and objections...
Because there is not peace on earth does not lead to the conclusion that Jesus is not the Messiah. Although this question seems logical, it is based on incomplete assumptions about the Messiah--assumptions that do not fully take into account what the Hebrew scriptures say about the Messiah. A more complete study of the Hebrew Bible would reveal two aspects of the Messiah that Rabbinic thought is now overlooking.

How does Space Weather affect us on Earth?

SOHO
We can observe these phenomena better than before, thanks to new space observatories and spacecraft such as SOHO, ACE, and TRACE. Magnetic storms, such as the coronal mass ejection interact with the Earth's magnetic field which in turn can interfere with radio, television, and telephone signals, upset the navigation systems of ships and airplanes, and cause blackouts. Sun-induced storms can damage satellites and spacecraft or force them to re-enter the atmosphere.

How long does it take for the Sun's light to reach the Earth?

SOHO
The Sun is about 93 million miles, or 150 million kilometers, away from the Earth. The speed of light is 186,000 miles per second or 300,000 kilometers per second. Therefore it takes about 500 seconds or a little over 8 minutes for the Sun's light to reach the Earth.

Does Mars have seasons like we do on Earth?

Martian Time -- FAQ
Seasons are caused by the inclination of a planet's rotational axis relative to the plane of its orbit around the sun. Earth's axis is inclined 23.5 degrees. On the first day of summer in the northern hemisphere, Earth's north pole is tilted 23.5 degrees toward the sun, so the northern hemisphere receives more sunlight. Half a year later, on the first day of winter, Earth's north pole is tilted away from the sun, so the northern hemisphere receives less sunlight.

How close does Cruithne get to the Earth?

Near-Earth Asteroid 3753 Cruithne FAQ
The closest approach is only to within 0.1 astronomical units (about 15 million kilometers (10 million miles) or 40 times the Earth-Moon distance), and it only gets this close every few hundred years. Over the next year, Cruithne won't get any closer than 0.3 astronomical units, and at this point it will be almost directly beneath the Earth's South Pole (this is possible due to the asteroid's inclined orbit).
