  3. He formulated the universal law of gravitation. Find out the answer…

  4. Who is Isaac Newton in publishing Principia in 1687. ~ 1700

  5. He made the first measurement of the UniversalGravitation constant. Find out the answer…

  6. Who was Henry Cavendish in 1798~1800

  7. He postulated that mass bends space and time in hisGeneral Theory of Relativity.. Find out the answer…

  8. Who is Albert Einstein in 1916.~ 1900

  9. Either of the two men who accidentally discovered the backgroundradiation left over from the Big Bang. Find out the answer…

  10. Who are Penzias & Wilson in 1965.~ 1950

  11. This is the primary cause of the tides on Earth. Find out the answer…

  12. What is the differential pull of the moon on the Earth?

  13. These are extreme tides that occur when theMoon, Earth, and Sun are aligned as in a new moon anda full moon. Find out the answer…

  14. What are Spring tides.

  15. This causes one high tide to be an additional 25 minutes later thanjust 12 hours from the previous high tide. Find out the answer…

  16. What is the amount of revolution of the moon around the Earth in 12 hours?

  17. The sun exerts a much larger force on the Earth thandoes the moon, but the difference between the force on the near and far side of the Earth is greater for the Moon than the Sun. Find out the answer…

  18. Why does the Moon effect the tidesmuch more than the Sun?

  19. The sphere surrounding a black hole where the escape velocityequals the speed of light. Find out the answer…

  20. What is the event horizon?

  21. This name refers to black holes that could nothave been formed from a star. It is believed they can be foundat the center of every galaxy, have a mass of billionsof suns and are responsiblefor holding the galaxy together. Find out the answer…

  22. What is a super massive black hole?

  23. These are streams of particles shooting out at near the speed of light and directed as if they were emitted from the center of the black hole perpendicular to the disk of debris orbiting the black hole. Find out the answer…

  24. What are jets?

  25. This is the name given to the material orbiting and spiralingAround a black hole. Find out the answer…

  26. What is an accretion disk?

  27. This term was coined to mock the concept by Hoylewho didn’t believe it was true, but the term stuck and is nowthe name we give to the theory of the creation of the universe. Find out the answer…

  28. What is the Big Bang?

  29. This phrase describes the fact that galaxies that are far away are moving so fast away from us that their light appears to have a lower frequency and longer wavelength than we would normally expect. Find out the answer…

  30. What is red shift?

  31. This is the name given to the constant of proportionalitythat relates how far away a galaxy is to its speed relative tous. This constant is somewhere between 50 and 100 ( km/s ) / (Mega parsec). Find out the answer…

  32. What is Hubble’s constant?

  33. Daily Double!!! This object, discovered in 1974, and namedEinstein’s cross is a great example of this phenomenon. Find out the answer…

  34. What is gravitational lensing or The bending of light by gravity?

  35. If the mass of the moon was doubled and keptin the same location, then this number woulddescribe how much stronger the force of gravityof the moon on the Earth would be. Find out the answer…

  36. What is 2?

  37. The Universal Gravitation law (and other mathematically similar laws) is know by this Descriptive name because it has the Distance between the objects squared in the denominator. Find out the answer…

  38. What is the inverse square law?

  39. This is the answer you get when you plug in your mass, the mass of the Earth, the radius of the Earth, and the value of Ginto the universal gravitation equation. Find out the answer…

  40. What is my weight?

  41. This is the fraction of your weight you would have if you were to climb up and up and up until you were 1 Earth diameterabove the surface of the Earth. Find out the answer…

  42. What is 1/9th ?
