[edit]Universe
[edit]Spacetime has existed for 138 hundred million years as space has been increasing its size from an extremely hot singularity at an accelerating pace. The abundance of material in reality is 68 parts acceleron-based dark energy, 27 parts dark matter, and 5 parts familiar baryonic matter. Electrons are elementary particles that began orbiting protons of opposite change and neutrons of no charge in atoms seconds into the start of the universe. Electrons form the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus at the center of electrically neutral atoms. Protons and neutrons are nucleons in atomic nuclei universally composed of three quarks. The former is composed of two up quarks and a down quark. The latter is composed of one up quark and a pair of down quarks. Quarks and leptons (like the electron) are elementary particles. Baryons composed of multiple quarks are composite particles. Cosmologists theorize the predominance of baryons over antibaryons in our universe from an imbalance of 1 part in 16 hundred million. After baryons and antibaryons finished eliminating each other, the universe was three parts hydrogen and one part helium. After two hours of incredibly rapid expansion, heavier elements could not form.
At present the universe is unimaginably large. A parsec is a distance of 30857 ten thousand hundred million meters. A photon is the fastest thing in existence and it takes 1200 days to to travel one parsec. It would take a spaceship ten thousand billion years to cover the same distance (at 26km/hr). The width of a galactic filament can be ~ pc accross. The edge of the observable universe is 140 hundred million parsecs away
There are hundreds of ten thousands of superclusters, 3rd-level-galaxy-structures based on the number of nodes. Our galaxy is called the milky path because we can see a cloud of stars across the night sky. The sun is a star in one of the four main spiral arms of the galaxy, orbited by four inner rocky planets, four outer gas giant planets, and various satellites.
Types of stars include brown dwarfs, black dwarfs, white dwarfs, red giants, supergiants, planetary nebula, nova, main-sequence stars, neutron stars, supernova, and black holes. Sun core, magnetic field, sunspots, and solar flares.
There are various constellations in the sky. In the orient of the northern hemisphere they were described by the 28 mansions, the heavenly stems, and the earthly branches. The Mayans also had a system of astrology.
Mercury, or the star of water is the 1st planet from the sun.
The solar system we inhabit has 1 star and 8 planets, from Mercury being the closest, followed by Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. In the Orient these were referred to as the stars of Water or 辰星 (morning), Gold or 启明/长庚/太白星君, ball of dirt, Fire 荧惑 (bewilderment, war), Wood 岁星 (year), Earth 镇星/填星 (stabling), and more recently named Sky King and Sea King.
Mars' moons are Phobos, Ceres, and Deimos. Jupiter's moons include Europa, Io, Ganymede, Callisto. Saturn's moons include Iapetus, Titan, Rhea, Dione, Tethys, and Mimas. Uranus' moons include, Oberon, Titania, Umbriel, Ariel, and Miranda. Neptune's moons include Triton. Some Keiper belt elements include Pluto, Charon, Haumea, Namaka, Hi'iaka Makemake, Eris, and Dysnomia.

The curved surface of the world we live on is extends quite far. You can represent its objects, places, and terrain elevation in certain regions on a map. Below is one that illustrates the sphere, however areas towards the bottom are stretched horizontally in order to be projected onto this flat interface. You can imagine the top edge being condensed into a point and the bottom edge being condensed into a point to represent the non-planarity of the world. http://www.andre-franke.se/ft3/Shifted_earth_10800.png Lower elevations are shown in green and higher elevations are shown in red. The left and right edges flow into each other at the equator line, which also continues vertically at the center of the map, dividing the map into two halves. The center of the left half is called the north pole, the end of north-wise orientation. The center of the right half is called the south pole, the end of south-wise orientation. The line segment connecting these points is the 0 meridian. A line segment connecting them at an angle τ/24 below is a meridian marking the boundary of a time zone. After six successive line segments connecting the points angled 1/24 of a ring angle further, there are discontinuities on the model. The points are represented jumping from their location on the left map to their x-inverted location on the right map. The meridian cutting the ring halfway, going straight left is the international date line. The regions between these meridians designate 24 time zones. https://blog.richmond.edu/livesofmaps/files/2014/10/Cassini-Projection-2.jpg The apparent motion of the sun follows a path...

ב History
[edit]The universe began 50,000 hundred million days ago with a rapid expansion from an infinitesimally small point. It is unknown how this point of energy came into existence. 10-43 seconds after inception the temperature is ten quadrillion ten quadrillion kelvin (10^32K), which immediately cools to a hundred thousand hundred million ten quadrillion kelvin (10^29K), allowing for the seperation of gravitation from the electrostrong force which then separates into the strong nuclear, weak nuclear, and electromagnetic forces yielding a sea of particles as the size of reality increases a hundred hundred million ten quadrillion-fold. The released potential energy forms a quark-antiquark-gluon plasma and the Higgs field bestows particles mass. A microsecond after time begins the temperature is a hundred hundred million kelvin and the plasma congeals into hadrons within a second of existence. Over ten seconds hadrons and antihadrons annihiliate and then leptons and antileptons annihilate. Due to an imbalance of 1 part in 16 hundred million, there is a predominance of baryons over antibaryons. For 17 minutes the universe is cool enough for baryons to be stable and hot enough for them to fuse into atomic nuclei like hydrogen and helium, after which it is too cold for fusion, leaving the universe at three parts hydrogen and one part helium, which collect over hundreds of thousands of years as clouds of gas that come together under gravitation and dark matter as nebulae. Electrons recombine at 4000K and emit photons, allowing for visible EM waves. After the dark ages of the cosmos, stars form in galactic clusters. The dust around stars forms planets. The formation of the Earth 16,600 hmda (4543mya) begins the period of Hades lasting an eon. It is hostile with volcanoing, frequent asteroid impacts, and no continents. A protoplanet collides into the Earth 16,200 hmda (4425mya) during the more than five indistinguishable-eras of the Hadean, resulting in a planetary magma ocean and 23.4° tilt in the Earth's rotational axis. The mantle and crust of both planets are ejected into the cosmos, creating a ring of debris that coalesces into our Moon. Asteroid impacts continue until 14,000 hmda (3800mya). The only geologic record of this period is some zircon crystals that withstand subduction and weathering. The decline of heavy asteroid bombardment begins the period of Archea lasting an eon. It results in RNA-based life and subsequent DNA-based bacteria and archaea during the four-variable-era period. The oldest fossils from 12,700 hmda (3480mya) are sedimentary microbial mats (sheets) of cyanobacteria in tidal flats formed as stromatolites. The remnants suggest flourishing single-cell organisms. The first continents formed in this period have remnants found in Africa, Canada, Australia called cratons fromed from microcontinental accretion colliding along ancient subduction zones similar to how India crashed into Asia to form the Himalayas or how North America will crash into Asia one or two hundred million years in the future. By the end of the Archean period the Earth has oceans and continents with rivers and lakes but more carbon dioxide and methane and less O2 than today. The appearance of oxygen from evolved cyanobacteria with photosynthetic capabilities begins the period of early complex-life (Proteroza) lasting an eon. Oxygen is initially absorbed by the oceans acting as a buffer, but eventually they become saturated and the atmosphere rapidly becomes oxygenated during the three variable-era period. This causes a mass extinction of obligate anaerobes. Eukaryotes appear. Banded iron formations come from this period.
Periods in the Proterozoic Eon: Siderian (2500-2300), Rhyacian (2300-2050), Orosirian (2050-1800), Satherian (1800-1600), Calymmian (1600-1400), Ectasian (1400-1200), Stenian (1200-1000), Tonian (1000-850), Cryogenian (850-635), Ediacaran (635-541).
The current period lasting an eon is the Phanerozoic. It includes the Paleozoic era, Mesozoic era, and Cenozoic era.
Periods in the Phanerozoic Eon: Cambrian (541-485.4), Ordovician (485.4-443.4), Silurian (443.4-419.2), Devonian (419.2-358.9), Carboniferous (358.9-298.9), Mississippian subperiod, Pennsylvanian subperiod, Permian (298.9-252.17), Triassic (252.17-201.3), Early Triassic, Middle Triassic, Late Triassic, Jurassic (201.3-145), Early Jurassic, Middle Jurassic, Late Jurassic, Cretaceous (145-66), Early Cretaceous, Late Cretaceous, Paleogene (66-23.03), Neogene (23.03-2.588), Quaternary (2.588-0).
The Cambrian period lasted between 1976-1773 hmda. Early Cambrian. Late Cambrian. The Ordovician lasted between 1773-1619. The Silurian lasted between 1619-1531. The Devonian lasted between 1531-1311. The Carboniferous lasted between 1311-1092. Mississippian subperiod. Pennsylvanian subperiod. The Permian lasted between 1092-921. The Triassic lasted between 921-735. Early Triassic. Middle Triassic. Late Triassic.
The Jurassic period lasted between 735-529. Early Jurassic. Middle Jurassic. Late Jurassic. The Cretaceous lasted between 529-241. Early Cretaceous. Late Cretaceous. The Paleocene epoch lasted between 241-84. The Paleogene? The Eogene? The Oligocene? The Neogene (84-9.4283 hmda) is composed of the Miocene and the Pleiocene epochs. The Pleistocene? The Holocene? The Anthropocene?
8-5 hundred tenthousand years ago (29.2-18.3 hmda) in eastern and central Africa (Chad, Ethiopia, Kenya) were bipedal ape-like hominin genera in swampy forest margins, woodlands, and savanna lakes/springs. Australopithecines arose about hundred tenthousand years ago (14.6 hmda), some of whom made stone tools 12 hmda. From these creatures around 11-7 hmda the genus Homo likely arose, characterized by full bipedalism, large social brains, and tool-capable hands. They traveled out and hunted medium-large animals like antelopes and horses. The Quaternary Period began 9.4283 hmda. Fire was probably used 3.65 hmda, increasing the food niche, and in Eurasia it is evident that hearths were used 1.8 hmda. The oldest human species fossil dates 1 hmda and the Neolithic Revolution occurred 4380000 days ago. Since the era of agriculture, human societies have social stratification leading to class hierarchies such as the patriarchy due to material conditions. Owing to males typically being stronger than females, communities with isolated families tend towards having a dominant male parent and homekeeping female parent. Agriculture spreads throughout the planet, making it difficult to maintain a hunter-gatherer lifestyle on smaller areas of land.

- Jânio Quadros is a member of the National Labour Party backed by the National Democratic Union. He wins the presidency and serves from 243,7331 until resigning 206 days later. Tancredo Neves negotiates parliamentary rule with himself as prime minister and João Goulart of the Brazilian Labour Party as head of State.

Throughout his administration, known as Jango, his Basic Reforms proposes rent control, a wealth tax, expropriation of land by roads railroads and dams, and nationalization of oil refineries and foreign-owned mining operations.

- Indigenous peoples in the North: The Abipón inhabit Gran Chaco as hunter-gatherer fishers, and to small extent farmers. During floods they live on islands or shelters built in trees. They are tall with black eyes and black hair plucked out from the forehead to the crown. Their lips and ears are pierced. Women have faces, breasts, and arms tattooed with figures according to age and social status. Men fight with the bow and arrow, spear and club, and bolas wearing in battle tapir hide sewn under jaguar skin. They are good swimmers and horsemen. They commonly practice infanticide and share customs of the Guaycurú, like the couvade. By 1641 they obtain horses from the Spanish settlers to hunt cattle, rhea, guanaco, deer, and peccary and do horse raiding in place of farming of Spanish ranches and the cities Asuncion and Corrientes. Beginning 1710 the Spanish begin imposing military authority on them. By 1750 Jesuit missionaries Christianize them. They are often raided by the hostile Guaycurú Toba/Qom and Mocoví peoples. By 1768 half of them succumb to disease and the Spanish expel the Jesuits, so the Toba/Qom and Mocoví destroy their nation.
- The
Mocoví inhabit Gran Chaco as nomadic hunter-gatherer fishers. They hunt deer and rhea and trade skins and feathers for gold, silver, and copper items. Jesuits teach them to farm with cattle, so they settle.
- The
Toba or Qom people inhabit Salta and Tarija. They are semi-nomadic hunter-gatherers. They live in log shelters convered in straw, craft ceramic, weave baskets, and knit clothes. Their religion is animistic and shamanistic. They frequently practice infanticide. The Wichí displace them east. The Qom are enemies of the Abipón and allies of the Mocoví. Like other Guaycurú peoples, the Qom organize themselves into 60-family bands. They hunt animals like imported cattle with bows and arrows. At the beginning of the 1700s, missionaries make contact, allowing the Qom to make use of horses in a powerful complex called Chaco Gualamba. They ride horses through trees wearing leather helmets. Guaycurú groups like the Qom cross the Paraguay river to raid Paraguay. The Qom becomes the dominant group in Central Chaco, advancing west to make raids in Pampas. In 1756 at Jujuy the Jesuits founded a "reduction" center. When they are expelled in 1768 there are 600 Qom inhabiting it and they are one of the most resistant Chaco region groups against the merging of white culture and the claims to power. They frequently use and update rifles to defend themselves and their territory, under chiefs such as Tayolique. In 1858 they threaten Santa Fe city. After 1880 the Argentine Army confines them to a dense forest difficult to navigate and survive owing to the lack of water. In 1884 the conquest of Gran Chaco is led by General Victoria. In 1901 the government and Franciscan missionaries found two "reductions" in Formosa: one has 150 Qom and Pilagá from northern Chaco on 20000 hectares and another has Qom on 74000 hectares with a sugar refinery operating for 45 years. Many are forced to work on cotton plantations or manufacturing plants. Between 1911-16 General Victoria ends a Qom revolt, marginalizing them and making survival more difficult. In 1924 the Qom resist being concentrated onto reservations for foreigners and Creoles to have more estancia farming areas, and 200 die at the Massacre of Napalpí with 700 injured. The remaining who aren't shot have their throats slit. Formosa becomes a province in 1955, so the missions are given civil control. Sovereignty is maintained until the late 19th century when territorial conquest and subjugation of people lowers the population. The Qom stop working agrarian labor and are largely expelled. Today they live in poverty. ...

Chile maybe comes from the Incan name for the Picunche ruler, chief "Tili", of the Aconagua valley, or for a valley similar to it in Peru's Casma Valley, namely "Chili". Or it maybe comes from Quechua "cold" or "snow" or "deepest point of the Earth" or from Mapuche "where the land ends" or the imitation of the sound of a local trile.

[edit]Ecology
[edit]Organisms interact with each other in environments. The population of a certain species changes depending on where its community is and how other populations interact, like through predation, cooperation, or competition for food, water, living space resources. Their ecosystem constitutes the non-living environment, like the topography, soil components, and climate of the water and air. We study how the materials in an ecosystem impact the life within. The biome is where organisms have evolved similar techniques to adapt to general conditions. These are part of the biosphere that makes Earth. Living factors
Organisms
[edit]There are six kingdoms of life, plants, animals, archaebacteria, eubacteria, fungi, and protists. Plants collect their food from the sun and power ecosystems. Plants colonized land 400mya and adapted to the dry air conditions with chlorophyll, starch storage, moist gamete protection within cell tissues, gas exchange leaf openings, wax surfaces preventing water loss, roots to pull soil water and nutrients, conduction tissues for transport, and gravity support tissues. Their gametes can be similarly sized and motile, or the male gamete can be smaller, more motile, and with few nutrient reserves. Plants have two life phases as a gametophyte (haploid) and through syngamy into a sporophyte (diploid) and through meoisis back into a gametophyte, which may be morphologically the same or distinct from the sporophyte, through becoming an Archegonium or Antheridium combining into a zygote and developing into an embryo. The sporophyte becomes sporangia that produces spores for dispersal, which germinate into a gametophyte. Nonvascular plants were first on land and live in moist environments. The sporophyte is nutritionally dependent on the gametophyte, which releases gametes into water. Liverworts (Hepatophyta) are basic, hornworts (Anthocerophyta) have a growing region and foot, and mosses (Bryophyta) have capsules, seta, and feet.
Seedless vascular plants have xylem and phloem. These include ferns, whisk ferns, horsetails, club mosses. Seeded vascular plants are mostly angiosperms, as opposed to gymnosperms.

[edit]The engineering process complements the scientific method by solving problems given a large background of knowledge. We apply mathematics to solve military and civil obstacles given the time and resources at available. Over a short period of time, this process was applied in mechanics, transportation, and medicine, before the Industrial Revolution gave way to electrical, industrial, nuclear, and computational technologies.

The telegraph is first commercialized in 1837. The telephone is commercialized in 1876. The wireless telegraph or radio is commercialized in 1894. There are Amateur Radio and Radio Broadcasting Stations. The first radio news program is broadcast in 1920. AM stations are used for navigation until VHF Omnidirectional Range systems become popular. Single-Sideband modulation become standardized in the 1930s. Commercial television transmissions begins in the 1940s and in 1963 color television is broadcast. Television sets use cathode ray tubes. The telephone also grows more popular and commercialized. MOSFETs come into use in FM radio technology and MOS LSI is economical. In the 1970s radio communications satelites are launched and in 1987 GPS is developed. Digital television transmitted in standard definition and high definition.

Information technology (Abacus, Calculator, Computing, Data, Expert system, Internationalization and localization)
A Computer is a machine that takes input to do computations with and produces an output. It is ubiquitously electronic-based and outnumbers the number of people today. Newer computers use VLSI integrated circuits to process information through control units. Computers can be modeled theoretically as Turing Machines or expressions of lambda calculus. They are very versatile in using many layers of abstraction and can be linked into the World Wide Web. Experts are applying quantum mechanics, optics, and organic material to leverage the powers of computation.
A Hard disk drive is a mechanical storage device using magnets to read and write digital data.
A CPU was built from vacuum tubes and relays until the invention of the printed circuit board. On 2438493 the company IBM created the System/360. On 2438842 the PDP-8 was created. The use of transistors increased clock speed to tens of megahertz. Integrated circuits were built from semiconductors as small-scale integration CPUs. Metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors were built as large-scale integration CPUs.
