Hohmann Transfer Orbit Can Be Used to Reach Mars
With an average distance covering 140 million miles, navigating to this remote planet seems implausible in one lifetime. However, when considering the Hohmann transfer orbit, this gargantuan journey might be the quickest way to travel between the two planets. This step-by-step guide is a complete breakdown of the Hohmann Transfer Orbit. It covers key aspects like timing, maneuvers, and fuel efficiency, helping you understand how successful missions can be planned. Understanding the Hohmann Transfer Orbit A Hohmann transfer orbit is an elliptical path between two orbits around a central body, like the Sun. It is the most fuel-efficient way to...
Blacks Holes From Paper to Picture: The 100 Year Journey from Einstein’s Theory to Your Screen
You may have seen the image above floating around recently. On first glance, you might have thought it was a smudge on your screen, or an image that wouldn’t fully load. While the photo may look unassuming, it is one of the most remarkable scientific feats of our generation. What you see is an image that many believed to be impossible to produce – a supermassive black hole. It represents the culmination of decades of scientific aspirations and years of collaboration among more than 200 international scientists working on the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT). Since Einstein turned physics on its...
