Among these is the , which involves the research and support of Physical Mapping and DNA Sequencing. This would enable Humans to reproduce babies that what most parents want. Completing this DNA sequencing and Physical mapping would enable us to change everything in a new born baby to the likes of the parents e.g. IQ, Color, Strength, looks, gender, etc.

Possibility Of Terraforming One Of Earth's Neighboring Planets
Words: 1730 / Pages: 7 .... that it will facilitate human existence on that planet. In order to accomplish this, technology must be aimed at three specific, vital areas: The creation of an aquatic medium, a terrestrial plateau and celestial ether that is conducive to human respiration. There are two planets from which to choose: Mars and Venus.
Martyn J. Fogg authored what is regarded as a textbook of the future called Terraforming: Engineering Planetary Environments. I have chosen Fogg's book as my second primary source because it is the only book of its kind that addresses the question of terraforming in a non- science fiction context.
The successful terraformation of a plane .....

Galileo
Words: 1785 / Pages: 7 .... their peer's views it was also the way each of them conducted

Early 1960’s when we found out how to put satellites and astronauts into orbit a source of power was needed to be found that would have to function over a long period of time with a continuous source of electrical power. If these needs weren’t met future space activities would be limited. was eventually used. Once an unmanned space probe was on its way no one would be there to oil or repair it.
Solar cells today are made out of one of the earth’s most common ingredients, silicon. Silicon used in producing solar cells is very carefully prepared. The flow of electricity takes pl .....

Blood Pressure
Words: 691 / Pages: 3 .... but however, there are certain risk factors or associations such as hereditary factors, race, age, environmental and life-style factors (where you live, salt and other chemicals, weight, stress, alcohol, lack of exercise). The difference between primary and secondary hypertension is that we know the causes of secondary hypertension. Usually, the causes of secondary hypertension include renal artery stenosis (or other cause of increased plasma renin), renal parenchymal disease (glomerulonephritis, diabetic nephropathy, polycystic disease, obstructive uropathy), drugs (oral contraceptives, steroids), and increased levels of catecholamines (pheochrom .....

Mars 2

The southern hemisphere is strewn with ancient craters of all sizes and is also elevated by a several kilometers creating a visible boundary. On the opposite end the northern hemisphere consists of a wider variety of geological features, but is obviously smoother and much younger. There are large volcanoes, a great rift valley, and a variety of channels.
Volcanism is a geological process that occurs on Earth today, and has on many planetary bodies throughout the history .....

Charles Darwin And Richard Owen
Words: 3241 / Pages: 12 .... to the lack of quality in teaching, Owen transferred to Barclay
School, and it was here that John Barclay, an anti-materialist, greatly influenced Owen. Through Barclay's

membership to the Royal College in 1826. Owen was later appointed assistant in the cataloging of a collection
containing thirteen thousand specimens (known as the Hunterian Collection (Rupke 17)). It was probably this that
lead Owen interest in the field of anatomy, which eventually lead him into becoming a naturalist. By 1836, he
published anatomical work on the Memoir .....

Computer Viruses
Words: 3907 / Pages: 15 .... detection.
In recent years have caused a great deal of damage to personal computers and computer systems around the world. The damage can be extensive; mostly due to the loss of time spent recovering the infected data. A computer virus in a system is one of the worst things that can happen to a computer user. Still, many specialists insist that it is possible to use the replication mechanism of for some useful and beneficial purposes.

The Greeks invented science and explored it in its truest form, philosophy.
Through the years we have developed tools that we hope can prove or disprove
