     Extractions: Updated   4 June 2004 Introduction………..                 Well Folks I’m Back by popular demand.  About a year ago I shut this website down do to the fact that my work had been copied and claimed by others.  One such incident I found on a prominent website.   I have decided that I would rebuild this web site with much a few changes.  Being since my book is so close to coming out I shall only  put parts of my research on line other than the entire manuscript. Thank you for visiting Aaron Stiles Coming Soon……………. Ghost – A scientific look into the creation of Ghost     “NEW” What could be the beginning of a “Unified Theory of the Universe”        “NEW” Time”   A different point of view on what Time is and how it effect the Universe    “Updated” An “Advanced Theory of Evolution”   Religion, A scientific and physiological look into its creation and prominence        “Updated” We must always remember that science is the search for answers to the unknown, our ideas of the world change every day,  We, as a human race should not shy away or grow fearful of those things that we do not understand.  We must also learn to better judge fact from fiction, and fiction from scientific possibility, irregardless of how improbable.  Faith can only take you so far, let the facts guide you through the rest of your journey. Rebuilding this site will take a little time, but it shall also be better than ever too.  If you have comments or questions fill free to e-mail.  If you are a Professional and would like to discuss some of my idea’s you may also E-mail me or contact me directly.

     Computer rendering of Chicxulub crater, from gravity and magnetic field data.  
     http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap000226.html
     
     Extractions: Credit: courtesy V.L. Sharpton, LPI Explanation: What killed the dinosaurs? Their sudden disappearance 65 million years ago, along with about 70 percent of all species then living on Earth, is known as the K-T event (Cretaceous-Tertiary Mass Extinction event). Geologists and paleontologists often entertain the idea that a large asteroid or comet impacting the Earth was the culprit. In such a cosmic catastrophe, the good(!) news would be that the impact would generate firestorms, tidal waves, earthquakes, and hurricane winds. As for the bad news ... debris thrown into the atmosphere would have a serious global environmental consequences, creating extended periods of darkness, low temperatures, and acid rains - resulting in a planet-wide extinction event. In 1990, dramatic support for this theory came from cosmochemist Alan Hildebrand's revelation of a 65 million year old, 112 mile wide ring structure

136. Boy Scout Astronomy Merit Badge Program
     Program, fees, and badge requirements for offering by the Ritter PlanetariumBrooks Observatory of Toledo, Ohio.  
     http://www.rpbo.utoledo.edu/bscouts.html
     
     Extractions: The Ritter Planetarium-Brooks Observatory Astronomy Merit Badge Program is based on the requirements to earn an Astronomy Merit Badge. The program includes a tour and use of the hands-on displays in our lobby, a specialized planetarium program, and either a tour of the Ritter 1-Meter Telescope , or observing at the Brooks Observatory , weather permitting. Scouts are also given a helpful workbook ( view a 4 page sample - requires Acrobat) based on the badge requirements, and each group is given a useful star and planet locator to keep and use during future stargazing. Astronomy Merit Badge Programs will be offered*: Thursday, September 18, 2003 Saturday, December 13, 2003 All programs begin at 6:30pm and last 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Seating is limited! If your troop would like to attend one of our Astronomy Merit Badge Programs please RSVP in advance. Please contact the Planetarium Office at (419) 530-2650, Mondays through Fridays, 9:00am - 5:00pm to schedule your troop. Admission is $9.00 per person including all attending adults. Note: Please keep in mind that while this program covers most of the Astronomy Merit Badge requirements, it does not complete them all. Scouts will still need to complete several activities. Those activities that are not completed by the program will be covered by planetarium staff. Additionally, no planetarium staff are Merit Badge Counselors, and therefore are not qualified to sign off on a scout's requirements. If you have any further questions about this program, please contact the Associate Director

     Extractions: Credit: SOHO EIT Consortium ESA NASA Explanation: Can you spot the planet? The diminutive disk of Mercury, the solar system's innermost planet, spent about five hours crossing in front of the enormous solar disk on 2003 May 7, as viewed from the general vicinity of planet Earth. The Sun was above the horizon during the entire transit for observers in Europe, Africa, Asia, or Australia, and the horizon was certainly no problem for the sun-staring SOHO spacecraft. Seen as a dark spot , Mercury progresses from left to right (top panel to bottom) in these four images from SOHO's extreme ultraviolet camera. The panels' false-colors correspond to different wavelengths in the extreme ultraviolet which highlight regions above the Sun's visible surface. This was the first of 14 transits of Mercury which will occur during the 21st century , but the next similar event will be a much more rare transit of Venus this coming Tuesday. Need help spotting Mercury? Just click on the picture.

140. Islamic Astronomy By Owen Gingerich
     About ancient astronomy preserved and improved by the Islamic empire.  
     http://users.kfupm.edu.sa/phys/alshukri/PHYS215/Islamic astronomy.htm
     
     Extractions: Islamic astronomy by Owen Gingerich Scientific American , April 1986 v254 p74(10) Historians who track the development of astronomy from antiquity to the Renaissance sometimes refer to the time from the eighth through the 14th centuries as the Islamic period. During that interval most astronomical activity took place in the Middle East North Africa and Moorish Spain. While Europe languished in the Dark Ages, the torch of ancient scholarship had passed into Muslim hands. Islamic scholars kept it alight, and from them it passed to Renaissance Europe. Two circumstances fostered the growth of astronomy in Islamic lands. One was geographic proximity to the world of ancient learning, coupled with a tolerance for scholars of other creeds. In the ninth century most of the Greek scientific texts were translated into Arabic, including Ptolemy's Syntaxis , the apex of ancient astronomy. It was through these translations that the Greek works later became known in medieval Europe . (Indeed, the Syntaxis is still known primarily by its Arabic name, Almagest, meaning "the greatest.")
