Come on, it can't just slow down, stop and fall back like a good ol' stone ! That would upend special relativity's apple cart. Just how would the light ray change ? The extreme situation would be when the massive star is a black hole.

What used to be called Pluto is 97 percent nitrogen ice (what's that?) and 3 percent methane ice (CH4 right?). Dry ice, CO2 ice, has no liquid state and goes from solid right to gas. Are there any planets, dwarf planets, or moons with H20 ice besides Europa?

I am taking a medical assistant course and it seems that I'm never going to get the hang of converting dosages. Has anyone else ever had this trouble? Here is a sample question. If someone can answer it, will you provide how you came to the solution of the answer? Thank you so much! Dr orders 3mg of Ativan IM. You have a 10mL vial of Ativan 2mg/mL on hand. How many mL will you give the patient?

Bit of a long shot ... and a very simple question with a complicated answer i know. What elements and what combinations cause which colours in the mineral world? Sort of to explain it to a 7-year old. Cheers. Links appreciated.

Do the facts that a new red spot (Red Spot Jr. or Little Red Spot)appeared on Jupiter, and record breaking hurricanes (Wilma for example) recently appeared on Earth say anything about the fate of our solar system or our planet, in the short term or long term? And can they be explained in terms of solar phenomena?

Which specific blood test data does a physician or lab tech check to verify -in layman's terms- blood "thickness" or not ?. In other words, clotting ability ?

I am totally out of my waters here.

Not a test question...I'm way past school age.

Dear sir without under standing the message what I issued people are questioning me how it was possible to issue the tsunami warning. I too know earthquake cannot be predicted. But can be sensed even by simple quake alarm. I sensed the earthquake wave for 12 minutes. Is it not sufficient to understand it is from major earthquake? In general we have to alert the people if you suspect the epicenter in sea. There were no report from any parts of the world that quake struck their place. The warning issued by me can be proved with document and also scietificaly. To get clarification you can visit my photo album. Ctrl+click will open this.http://asia.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/quake The secret of my warning is I have my research center in my house. The amplification factor helped me to sense such a feeble wave. Our president is fully aware of the fact.
