What can the scientist infer about the relationship of the nebula and the pulsars life cycle?

Nebulas are interstellar clouds made of dust and gases and a pulsar is a kind of star. A pulsar is formed inside of a nebula, therefore a scientist could conclude that without a nebula a pulsar could not exist.

5 famous historians and give their contributions?

Here are some Classical historians for you:

Thucydides: Ancient Greek Historian who informed us of the Peloponnesian Warbetween Sparta and Athens, and the life and times of the famous Pericles.

Herodotus: The Father of History. Ancient Greek writer who travelled extensively and informed us of geography and politics of the time.

Tacitus: Roman Historian who wrote on the Emperors of the early Principate, their activities against Germany and his father in law Agricola who was commander of the legions in Britain. He tells us much of the Emperor's, their policies and is often our only source in regards to the early Britons.

Arrian: History of Alexander the Great. Wrote on his conquests, life, politics and influences. Best informant we have on the young king.

Suetonius: Roman Historian/Biographer who wrote The Lives of Twelve Caesars, about the early principate. Unlike Tacitus, Suetonius wasn't so much a historian but a purveyor of juicy gossip. Fun to read.

Plutarch: Parallel lives, comparing the lives of famous Greeks and Romans, which linked them according to their achievements, personalities and the way in which they were viewed by their contemporaries.

Cassius Dio: A Greek Roman historian. Wrote on Alexander and Roman History.

What are the scientist conclusion regarding the Bing Bang Theory?

that worms will take over the earth that worms will take over the earth

How do scientists know that a new theory is accurate?

Because all of the observations and evidence are used for support.

Who was John Richard Bond?

John Richard Bond is an astronomer and a member of the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research and helped establish the Canadian Institute for Theoretical Astrophysics.

What do scientists think will eventually happen to the universe?

the sun will turn into a red giant and everything willl melt then we it will peacefully turn to a white dwarf.

Why do scientists theorize that kimberlites originate deep within the earth crust or mantle?

because diamond and other minerals found in kimberlites can form only under very high pressures

What evidence has led scientists to predict that the universe will continue to expand forever?

For decades, scientists have been conducting a series of Earth-based and space-based experiments to measure the rate of expansion of the Universe. The experimental results have kept drawing us toward the conclusion that the universe is "flat", meaning that the expansion will get slower and slower but that it will never actually stop expanding. We have increasing confidence, but still nothing we can call "absolute proof".

Here's a short list of some of the significant experiments that have provided us with a growing sense that the "flat universe" theory is correct:

WMAP - The Wilkinson Microwave Anisotrophy Probe - 2001 to 2010 - A NASA spacecraft which continues to study the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation left over from the creation of the Universe.

DASI - Degree Angular Scale Interferometer - 2001 to 2004 - A CMB experiment based at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station by a consortium of universities and the U.S. National Science Foundation

BOOMERANG - Balloon Observations Of Millimetric Extragalactic Radiation And Geophysics (no I'm not making this up) - 1998 and 2003 - Balloon telescope experiments circling the perimeter of Antarctica.

MAXIMA (Millimeter Anisotropy eXperiment Imaging Array) - 1998 and 1999 - Another set of balloon telescope CMB experiments by a consortium of universities and the U.S. National Science Foundation Center for Particle Astrophysics

MAT/TOCO - The Microwave Anisotropy Telescope - 1997 to 1998 - A high altitude instrument study of the CMB in the mountains of Chile by Princeton and the University of Pennsylvania

QMAP - A balloon telescope CMB experiment in 1996

What do scientist call basic unit of life?

The basic, smallest unit of life, is the cell.
