How The Sun Works

Hi readers you may be very eager to know that How Sun Works. Our sun is basically a giant nuclear reactor at the center of our solar system but not like the ones here on earth. They create energy by nuclear fission that is a split large atoms like uranium to smaller lighter one and in the process release the large amount of energy. Atomic bombs also work in the same way is a reason why they are so destructive. The Sun creates energy by nuclear fusion, the most efficient way to create energy in the universe other than matter-antimatter annihilation. Fusion works the other way around the fuses the nuclei or the center of atoms of the lightest and most abundant element in the universe, hydrogen together under enormous pressure and heat to create helium the second most abundant and lightest element in the universe. Again in the process of doing this, a huge amount of energy is released and this ultimately provides the energy for all life on earth.  Compared to the e

why Plane's Don't Fly Over The Pacific Ocean?

 Hello Dear viewers today we will know about why planes don't fly over the Pacific Ocean?  So let's get start, Why is my airline going out of its way to avoid the Pacific Ocean? Is this a mistake? Did I accidentally sign up for the caribouroute? At first you might think it was a safety issue. The Pacific is the largest and deepest of the world’s oceans.  If a plane encounters a problem over a seemingly endless and bottomless pond of water, the pilots are going to have a rough time finding  a safe spot to set her down. Alaska might not be over populated with international airports, but it’s a lot better than the middle of the ocean. How’s that for a tourism slogan? “Alaska, at least it’s better than sinking!” Okay, I apologize Alaska… Guessing that it was a safety precaution wouldn't be entirely wrong. When planning a route, many pilots prefer to maximize the number of airports along their path. Emergencies are incredibly rare relative to how many planes take to
