Peer Projects

        There were a lot really cool peer projects in my opinion this 9 weeks. Maybe its because I really do enjoy the incredible topic of space which I always find to be really interesting. One of these projects that I was really curious with was "The Moon Landing Conspiracy". Not because I believe in the conspiracy per say, but because it was a bunch of ideas and theories that I found really peculiar. The motive behind why for some crazy reason the moon landing would be a sham did seem correct, to beet the Soviets in the Space Race. Although this can be discredited as it can serve to show why the landing sites would be real, to beat the Soviets in the Space Race. So even though it is incredibly unlikely to have been a sham, seeing alleged evidence like the supposed "C Rock" that I had never heard off was pretty interesting. Another project I found really interesting was "Miranda: Uranus Moon" which is about a planetary moon that is in my opinion just absolutely insane. So its starts off with the cool story of being named after Shakespeare work of "The Tempest" as it was first discovered in 1948. But there's plenty of objects out in space with stories like that. What is really interesting is the very Surface of the moon itself.  It has some of the weirdest solid structure I have ever seen on a moon. Like is these massive Ice rifts in the middle of nowhere and has these super odd race track-like marks on the edge of it. Making a topographic map of this would be insane.  And finally the last project that I found interesting was Solar Superstorms. The realization that we could get hit with one really struck hard.
