In zero gravity, a candle flame forms a small blue sphere instead of the familiar teardrop shape. Without gravity, hot air doesn’t rise, so the flame no longer stretches upward. Instead, gases spread evenly in all directions, creating a smooth, round flame. This environment…

What if history can be accurately or scientifically predicted like planetary motion, and we’ve just been using the wrong models? I've written in my blog about such issues and topics.

Solar eclipse: "caused by the interposition of the moon between the sun and earth, covering all or part of the sun's disc as seen from the earth."


Lunar eclipse: "caused by the interposition of the earth between the sun and moon, such that the moon is darkened."


General definition of an eclipse ( from OED): "The interception of the light of a celestial object by the intervention of another object between that object and the observer, or between that object and what illuminates it (as when a satellite enters the shadow of its primary)."
