4 things the Professor Might find Intresting

The four things i think the professor might find interesting in this generation is


About how they think that there is water on mars and how they prove it, sliding


Rocks in a playa, seeing coal through a microscope, and geysers. These four things are probably

what the professor might be very interested and might want to do research and discover and seek the truth.
One of the interesting topics is water on mars! Is that possible? It all started when NASA was

doing a soil sample on mars. Than they found water in the soil samples. They tested it over and

Over again. Same results as they first came up with. "We have water," said William Boynton,

lead Scientist for the [T]hermal and [E]volved-[G]as [A]nalyzer, or TEGA. They will be doing

further research and actually send people [astronauts] to mars and see if it is so, that there is

water on mars. Another topic is sliding rocks in a playa. In Death Valley National Park, they see

a playa, or dry lake bed, and rocks with a long trail behind it. The mystery of these rocks and

playas' is that no one knows how they travel and leave such long trails. People say that they see

thin layers of ice covering on top of the rock. Some of the Scientists theories are about how water

freezes around the rocks and then wind, blowing across the top of the ice, drags the ice sheets

with the rocks covered under it and travel across the playa. I think this is very important

because back than, they didn’t have that good of technology to actually build up a hypothesis


there is water in mars.

Yet another topic and discover, have you ever seen coal under a microscope? do you think

its just black? Well, that’s just the outer-layer that’s visible. In the microscope, Coal seams form
From thick accumulations of plant debris, usually deposited in a swamp. The tiny particles of

plant debris and swamp sediment give a spectacular show when viewed through the

microscope. Well preserved woody material is bright red, spores are brilliant yellow, algal

material is yellow-orange, charcoal minerals are black, and grains of many transparent minerals

are white. Not that important about earth science, but I know a lot of people would want to

know more about how such things like a rock and its layers and how do they create the colors to

only be visible in a microscope. Though I know the professor would love to go in this more

depth.

Do you know what a geyser is? A geyser is a vent in Earth’s surface that periodically ejects a

column of hot water and steam. Even a small geyser is an amazing phenomenon. However some

geysers have eruptions that blast thousands of gallons of boiling hot water up to a few hundred


feet in the air. This could be very dangerous if it erupts in a place where there is a good


population of humans. They are mostly near where there are active volcanoes. There are over


1000 geysers, and most are located in Yellowstone National Park. It is very important,


especially to me, because people need to be aware of this particular thing and how we can


prevent from people getting hurt, how to be ready and what to do if there is a geyser occurring, and much more.



These are the four things that I think that he will be very interested in, and not just him,

probably you as well, so if you want to know more about it as well, research is the keyword!
