How Did the Solar System Form?

In Today's post lets see how the  Solar system has formed ? 


The solar system is a pretty busy place. It got all kinds of planets, moons, asteroids, and comets zipping around our Sun.
But how did this busy stellar neighborhood come to be?

Our story starts about 4.6 billion years ago, with a wispy cloud of stellar dust.
This cloud was part of a bigger cloud called a nebula.

At some point, the cloud collapsed—possibly because the shockwave of a nearby exploding star caused it to compress.

When it collapsed, it fell in on itself, creating a disk of material surrounding it.

Finally the pressure caused by the material was so great that hydrogen atoms began to fuse into helium, releasing a tremendous amount of energy. Our Sun was born!

Even though the Sun gobbled up more than 99% of all the stuff in this disk, there was still some material left over.

" Bits of this material clumped together because of gravity. Big objects collided with bigger objects, forming still bigger objects. Finally some of these objects became big enough to be spheres—these spheres became planets and dwarf planets".

Rocky planets, like Earth, formed near the Sun, because icy and gaseous material couldn’t survive close to all that heat.
And like that, the solar system as we know it today was formed. 
This is the Story of our Solar System .

Where Do Old Satellites Go When They Die ?

We know satellites are used for research purpose and used by television companies for our own entertainment. 
Like every other machine, satellites do not last forever , eventually all satellites grow old, wear out, and die, just like old washing machines and vacuum cleaners . But what happens to them then ?


Two things can happen to old satellites:
depending on how high the satellite is. For the closer satellites, engineers will use its last bit of fuel to slow it down. That way, it will fall out of orbit and burn up in the atmosphere.

The second choice is to send the satellite even farther away from Earth. It can take a lot of fuel for a satellite to slow down enough to fall back into the atmosphere. That is especially true if a satellite is in a very high orbit. 

These objects might not entirely burn up before reaching the ground. There is a solution—spacecraft operators can plan for the final destination of their old satellites to make sure that any debris falls into a remote area. 
This place even has a nickname—the Spacecraft Cemetery! It’s in the Pacific Ocean and is pretty much the farthest place from any human civilization you can find.
“Graveyard orbits”
What about those higher satellites we blast farther away? Those we send into a “graveyard orbit.” This is an orbit almost 200 miles farther away from Earth than the farthest active satellites. And it’s a whopping 22,400 miles above Earth!
some of these satellites will remain in orbit for a very, very long time. Perhaps someday in the future, humans may need to send “space garbage trucks” to clean these up. But for now, at least, they will be out of the way.

Happiness is ...

There are so many things around us to be grateful for !

Greeting the New day with a stretch and a yawn ☀︎
( waking up by the time you wish is a kind of blessing )

A first cup of morning coffee ☕︎
with a perfect sweet and bitterness !

scribbling on a clean black board γ‚·︎.
(Remember , In those inspection days we use to clean the whole class and black board with a wet cloth , would love to write on the shiny clean black board with a soft white chalk ).

Happiness is 

Riding cycle in the rain on a clean road ☔︎
Running in hand to hand for no reasonπŸ˜€
Watching sunshine through the leaves✨
Watching stars from the quiet , dark spot 🌠
Finding the missing glasses πŸ€“
The sound of wind chimes ✨
writing our initials on the beach sand !
When the theatre lights goes down ! 
A chill soda after a heavy lunch !
That unexplainable happiness when our Prayers get answered ! πŸ’›

If you've had a rough day and nothing seems to be going  right , Take a moment to think of the little things that are going right .✨πŸ’•
