I was watching this show called Alien Planet where scientists hypothosize how life on other worlds would look like. The aliens were pretty interesting because they reminded me about what our wildlife is like. The story begins when to probes called Ike and Leo land on the Planet of Darwin IV to research what lifeforms are there. They meet different types of weird and deadly creatures and search for sentient and intelligent life. However as the mission goes on Leo is destroyed by an unknown attacker. Ike eventually finds his attacker in the form of a floating blimp like creature who seems curious. After confirming that he has found an intelligent organism he shoots a pod of his findings into space. But this scares the creature and attacks him.

Stephen Hawking who despite his nearly comatose state is one of the most brilliant in modern history his theories on the universe helped to revolutionize the way we think about how it works. Stephen was born on January 8,1942 in Oxford England during World WarII to Frank and Isobel Hawking. His father was the head of the National Institute of Madical Research parasitology division. When Stephen was old enough he attended Owford University to study Physics in which he exelled in. Afterwards he left for Trinity Hall in Cambridge to study astronmy and cosmology.
After a while he developed Lou Gerigs disease which is a neuron Disease that impeads all motor skills and left unable to speak or move. But this did not spot him from making important discoveries that for the most part propelled science into the modern day.

There is this new movie called John Carter which is based on the book "John Carter of Mars" which was the inspiration of all science fiction's greatest works like Star Wars. This film is about a former confederate who is transported to Mars to help the native Martians defeat their enemies and bring life back to their world. I've personally never read the book and I have yet to see the film but I think it be a good movie to see.

Star Wars was the focal point of Science Fiction that propelled the world into the ideas of what the future we wil have and how new inventions and ideas shape. Star wars was directed by George Lucas who was legendary for his use of special effects and puppetry. Many scientific theories came about because of the film like space travel. Star Wars opened in 1977 to critical acclaim and was number one at the box office and a cultural Phenomenon that got the world thinking about what secrets the universe hold.

Mars has a planet of great interest to astronomers for decades because of the possiblity that it supported life. Scientists says that Mars was very earthlike and contained liquid H2O. The best evidence of this is on the north and south poles of Mars where there are ice caps. The most famous evidence of Mar's life supporting past was fossils of what appeared to be microorganisms. Because of this scientists belive Mars could be suitable for human colonization when can no longer be able to support life.

The Supernova is the catalyst for life to form on planets. A star produces energy by going through a process called Nuclear fusion. Hydrogen atoms within the stars core combine to create helium. when the atoms collide they release energy and core condenses. gravity plays a big role in this process as it causes the core to collapse. After the hydrogen is used up it starts using helium as its source which creates elements like carbon and oxygen which are critical elements for life. After the helium is done the core collapses and the star implodes on itself releasing the new elements into the solar system.

I have always been facinated by the prospect of life on worlds other than our own and with recent findings that might become a reality. Scientists have recently found a planet that orbits its star in the goldie lockes zone which ninety three millions which the same as earth. The goldie Lockes zone lives up toits name because its not to close to the sun or not to far away. The surface temperature of the planet is seventy degrees and may have liquid water also.
Life is a very unique feature of our planet and solar system
