Z is for Zenith #atozchallenge

Zenith refers to to highest point in the imaginary celestial sphere. It is directly opposite the pull of gravity.
When the sun is directly overhead it is at its zenith.

Y is for Y Chromosomes #atozchallenge

The Y chromosome was discovered by Nettie Stevens at Bryn Mawr in 1905.

Only males have the Y chromosome. In humans, the Y chromosome represents only 1% of the total DNA in a male's cells.The Y chromosome contains 200 genes. 

Male smokers have between 1.5 and 2 times the risks of developing lung cancer than do females.

Males are also susceptible to defects in the X chromosome since males have only one X chromosome.. 

X is for X Chromosomes #atozchallenge

The human body is composed of 22 pairs of chromosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes. The female has two X chromosomes while the male has one X chromosome and one Y chromosome.

The female receives one X chromosome from her mother and one X chromosome from her paternal grandmother.


Males have only one X chromosome so they are likely to suffer from genetic X chromosome diseases.
The first X chromosome was isolated in 1890.

W is for Watson and Crick...also "W" Music for Monday's Music Moves Me #atozchallenge, #MondaysMusicMovesMe

Who are Watson and Crick?
They are the scientist who discovered the DNA molecule. The DNA molecule is a double helix. The late showman, Merv Griffin described the DNA molecule as "looking like a ladder that's been in a bad fire."

Watson and Crick received the Nobel Prize for their discovery. 

DNA has revolutionized police work. Before DNA a drop of blood left at a crime scene could only reveal blood type. DNA can identify the specific individual that blood belongs to.

Its year is 224.7 days long.

Its atmospheric pressure is 92 times greater than the Earth's atmospheric pressure.

U is for Universe #atozchallenge

What are the chances that we will find life elsewhere in the universe?
The Drake Equation attempts to answer that question. There are 200-400 million stars in the Milky Way Galaxy and there are hundreds of millions of galaxies in the universe.

N is the number of civilizations in the Milky Way Galaxy.
This number is derived by multiplying the following factors:

R is the rate of star formation
fp is the fraction of stars that created planets
ne is the number of Earth-like planets
fl is the fraction of planets that actually have life
fi is the fraction of planets that actually have intelligent life. 
fc is the fraction of planets that actually have interstellar communication.
L is the amount of time this civilization remains detectable

Drake got 12,000 when he solve this equation As Drakle was quoted as saying, "That's a lot of E.T.'s"

T is for Nikola Tesla #atozchallenge

Who was Nikola Tesla?
Tesla (1856-1943) was an electrical engineer, mechanical engineer and futurist.
 He was best known for the design of the Alternating Current(AC) electrical supply system. His high-voltage, high-frequency designs were develped to produce wireless electric distribution and wireless lighting.

He was a competitor of Thomas Edison who was a proponent of Direct Current (DC).  Edison won the "War of Currents" between DC and AC currents.
After his death, he fell into obscurity. However, the FBI went to his hotel room and confiscated all of his drawings and papers.

His designed a death ray, which was a particle beam machine. Currently Israel is producing a particle beam which will destroy incoming weapons.

S is for satellite #atozchallenge

What is a satellite?

A satellite is a man made object which orbits the Earth. It is placed into orbit by means of a rocket ship.which lauches it in to orbit. The first satellite was called the Sputnik. It was launched into orbit by the former Soviet Union in 1957.
Eventually, the satellite slows down in its orbit around the Earth. It then succumbs to Earth's gravity and burns up in the atmosphere.

Today there are many kinds of satellites. The first two communications satellites were named Telstar.. There are also weather satellites and military satellites.

R is for Radium # atozchallenge

What is radium?

Radium is a silvery, white metallic substance which was discovered by Marie and Pierre Currie in 1898. Five days after they discovered radium, they reported it to the French Academy.

Radium has no commerical uses except in the field of Nuclear Medicine. In nuclear medicine, the isotope RA-223 is used to treat cases of  advanced prostate cancer.

At the time the Curries were working with radium. the dangers of radioactivity were not know. Marie Currie died of radiation poisoning.

Monday's Music...with the letter Q #MondaysMusicMovesMe, #atozchallenge

Queen of the Hop  by Bobby Darin

Quiet Nights by Andy Williams

Questions by the Moody Blues

Q is for quasar #tozchallenge

What is a quasar?

Quasars are very distant objects that emit emit electromagnetic energy and and located next to young massive galaxies which in turn are located next to massive black holes.

Quasars are very distant objects which are star like. They are powerful  and emit more energy than is found in the Milky Way Galaxy. The Milky Way Galaxy contains 200-400 billion stars.

Quasars are powered by the intake of matter into the massive black holes.

Quasars are found between 600 million and 28.85 billion light years away. .

P is for precession #atozchallenge

What is precession?

The Earth revolves on its axis once every 24 hours which forms our day. However, the Earth's axis is not a fixed point in space. The axis wobbles like a gyroscope or a child's toy top. Therefore, it points to a different set of stars. The period of precession is 26,000 years. Precession is the result of the Moon's and the Sun's gravitational pull on the Earth.

The Pole Star is the northern hemisphere is Polaris in 2015 A.D.  In 3000 B.C., the Pole Star was Thuban in the constellation of Draco. In 14,000 A.D., the Pole Star will be Vega in the constellation of Lyra.

O is for Oxygen #atozchallenge

The Earth's atmosphere is composed of 79% nitrogen, 20.59% oxygen and the rest consists of rare gases.
 
Oxygen is a key part of human respiration. Oxygen binds with the four available sites on the hemoglobin molecule. Hemoglobin, which is part of human blood carries the oxygen to the cells. In the cells, the oxygen is metabolized and carbon dioxide is the product, along with water of that metabolism.

Oxygen is critical to the brain and oxygen deprivation can cause  brain damage.
