I´m a junior science student inquisitive to know more.Who can explain to me how the Big Bang that produced the earth and sister planets manage to put them into orbit around the sun, and know the exact speed to orbit so that they won´t fall off into open space?

See http://www.spaceweather.com

It shows a Coronal hole happening on the sun, and there may be an auroral display around the 20th.

Also, any other time, scroll down the left side of the page and look for geomagnetic storms. When the % forecast for "severe" is high, the aurora could happen.

This is either a magical event or an astrological event that we have been told is occurring today. It may also have something to do with Faeries.

If that were the case, let's say that we're standing in the middle of the Sahara desert. Shouldn't the sky be sand coloured above us. Wouldn't this 'reflective' sky reflect the colour of the surroundings?
By the way those 'prism' type answers are wrong too.
The simple answer is that air is slightly blue. Water is slightly blue too. The surface of water is reflective... look at a puddle.
The sky is NOT reflective.... look up... do you see your town reflected..NO!

ok, well i actually kinda have 2. we have to make a made up galaxy, and i was wondering what color would be more appropriate for the sun (orange or yellow) and if i use yellow, would blue spots stand for the cold spots on the sun ? or would the cold spots be a different color ? if u don't get what i'm saying, then just leave a comment so i can explain it better

a) Article of the notice of the astrophysical Marcelo Gleiser: It says in the fantastic one that the moon appeared for the breaking above of colliding asteroid with the land. b) Disagreement of the designer and the scientist self-taught Tarcísio Brito: All the physical theory is always provisory in the direction of being only a hypothesis: But the moon and the land, well the all the bodies that with them if interactive in the these mechanics of the universe; it always existed and always it will exist - for all the lives of the cycle of our alternating history the lives of the cycle of daily pag-History. It donates who to finds it, consequently is fact, to the exception of the unconscious ones, or demagogues that they ignore this truth.

Can you tell me which is better: a refractor telescope or a reflector telescope and why? It would be a first telescope for an eight year old child.
