Astronomy & Space - November 2007

I want to buy a telescope good enough to see planets and nebulas. I also want to take some photos if it's possible (and cheap). What do you think I should buy?

Could there be such thing theoretically as a dark matter black hole?

If so, could we use it to travel through it to another point in space or to another universe, or go foreward and backwards in time?

If not, what gases is it comprised. If it is, 'nature abhors a vacuum' so why does it not draw away our atmosphere? Gravity may hold most of it, but on the outer edge of the atmosphere - why not?

Bear in mind that the word "east" comes from Latin for "dawn" - so would this mean that east is defined by the direction in which the sun rises? And then, how would this word for other solar systems?

I chose to write a report about outer space because it absolutely enthralls me- the entire idea of cosmology, astrophysics, quantum theories- and I am awed by images of Nebula's, Auroras, Meteors, Comets, Black Holes, Coronas, The Planets, Supernovas, Dwarfs...and ETC.
My problem, is all of it is so fascinating to me, and there's a broad range to choose from, so i'm a bit stuck. I have to open with a statement that encompasses one larger argument. It could be anything though, so does anybody have some good suggestions for a more specific idea I could strive for? It has to be an idea from which I could form some sort question, and my paper would be what I learned to figure out the correct/most accurate answer to it.
I'm aware it will definitely take some time and effort, though, i'd prefer it be something that's not too difficult to understand, and that I could find a fair amount of information on.

Thanks a bunch...!!!

If you look at all the other planets in our galaxy, you would think we are pretty special. The earth is at a perfect distance from the sun leaning on a tilted axis to where we are not in an inferno and not covered in ice...just right. Seasons rotate annually giving us climate change instead of infinite drought or flooding. We have one moon that influences our tides in the ocean (imagine if we had 4 moons...what would our tides be like then?). Every other planet has tons of massive craters and destruction from meteors and asteroids impacting the planet, yet we have just a few. Although each planet has its own beauty in some way, no other planet ( that we know of ) has the ironic qualities that earth has. Do you think we are special because of a higher authority or by coincidence?

Have you ever noticed how the other galaxies look like they were ,one by one, progressive experimentations towards our galaxy? The shapes, orbits, planets, and moons seem to get more efficient the closer they get to our galaxy. Its almost like constructing different versions of something until you get it right.

Why do we have so many beautiful pictures of nebulas, galaxies, and stars billions of light years away but no decent pictures of Pluto?
