day 7 news response

 Madelyn P

Today in reading the news, I learned that when black holes collide, there is enough gravitational energy that it equals more than all the stars in the universe. I also discovered that when getting close to a block hole, you will be ripped apart limb by limb. Besides that, your wrist watch, though process, and everything else about your existence would slow dramatically. I find these things about space very interesting. If you were to orbit a black hole for three years, when you return to earth, it would be closer to a million years later.

Day 6 news response

Madelyn P. The discovery of the Jebel Irhoud fossils raise a question that everything we thought we knew is false. How old is the homosapien species? older than we originally thought. New fossils were discovered in Africa in 1961 that dated back about 350,000 years ago. This raises a lot of speculation about the features we were formed from. The jaw was larger, and the skull was more elongated. Summing this up quickly, we have discovered new evidence about how far we as a species date back, and valuable traits have been discovered about our origins and how we lived, before we were "modern" humans.

Personally, I think it stems from wanting more out of life, more feeling. it takes determination and bravery to be persistent and seek out the dangerous things in life. Adrenaline rushes and adventure in my own opinion are two of the most amazing things humans can grasp and experience. Once someone feels this kind of "high: it can become addicting, almost like a drug. There aren't many things people wouldn't do to get more out of life. Even those o...

news response day 12

Madelyn Perkovich A 3,000 year old wooden big toe was found attached to a woman's skeleton, and is said to be an advanced prosthetic. For this period of time, Prosthetics were rare and not very functional, so this find was a cool find. It belonged to a priests daughter who had her big toe amputated. It was shaped and detailed by a skilled Artisian during the bronze era, and holds a lot of clues as to what may have been taking off and advancing in Medicine 3,000 years ago.
