Which are your favourites Space Science films? I am not talking of Science Fiction movies, but documentaries. My personal favourites are CARL SAGAN'S COSMOS by and SPACE - BY SAM NIEL (BBC).

We control the speed or movements of airplane against gravity by using air thrust. But there is no atmosphere or any other thing like air in space. So space ship sent to the moon or mars simply fall on surface of the moon or mars due to the gravitational attaction of the moon or mars. On the otherhand, the ship can not take off from their surface against their gravity in absence of air(which creats thrust).

Mars will look as large as the full moon to the naked eye.
and reach its azimuth at about 3 a.m.

By the end of August when the two planets are closest, Mars will rise at nightfall and reach its highest point in the sky at 12:30a.m. That's pretty
convenient to see something that no human being has seen in recorded history. So, mark your calendar at
the beginning of August to see Mars grow
progressively brighter and brighter throughout the
month.

I got an email a month ago and this is what it says:
We'll never see this again!
...nor will the people of the next 50-to-1,000 Life Times!

Mars, the Red Planet is about to be spectacular!

This month and next, Earth is catching up with Mars in an encounter that
will culminate in the closest approach between the two planets in recorded
history. The next time Mars may come this close is in 2287. Due to the way
Jupiter's gravity tugs on Mars and perturbs its orbit, astronomers can
only be certain that Mars has not come this close to Earth in the Last
5,000 years, but it may be as long as 60,000 years before it happens
again.

The encounter will culminate on August 27th when Mars comes to within
34,649,589 miles of Earth and will be (next to the moon) the brightest
object in the night sky. It will attain a magnitude of -2.9 and will
appear 25.11 arc seconds wide. At a modest75-power magnification...

Mars will look as large as the full moon to the naked eye....more....

I have loaded 20 different photographs at the site below of a space ship. It was taken on film so no photoshop theories. They were taken on 3 different rolls of film on 3 different days. The first album was shot on two different days in 2004 over a period of about 20 minutes which you can tell because the moon has moved but the space ship is stationary. The second album is from 2005.The space ship is infra red and was invisible at the time. As the moon is in a different position each time, it means the ship had to line up with my camera in order to be in the shot, and then stay completely motionless for around 20 minutes. Other photographs were taken of the moon on other days and no other lights were visible. in the background you can see stars, something that is impossible without the aid of the infra red unless you have a very much longer exposure. http://www.fopix.net/NOW/ If you dont believe it is a space ship(it is) please explain what you think it "really" is.

It's been announced that three additional planets will be reconized, and will change science as we know it.
It makes sense because there is 12 signs in the Zodiac.
Does anyone know if the zodiac aided in this decision with the new planets? (were some of the sun signs wrong before?)
