Place Brussels sprouts on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Lay them flat, cut side down. Drizzle with oil, seasonings and fresh thyme, then roast. In my convection oven it takes about 18 minutes.
The Hubble Space Telescope's launch in 1990 sped humanity to one of its greatest advances in the journey to understand the universe. Hubble is a telescope that orbits Earth.Its position above the atmosphere, which distorts and blocks the light that reaches our planet, gives it a view of the universe that typically far surpasses that of ground-based telescopes.ASA plans to operate Hubble at least until 2020 in order to allow 1 year of overlap of science operations with the James Webb Space Telescope. Hubble is one of NASA's most successful and long-lasting science missions.
A young person of my acquaintance asked me this question, and I didn't have a good answer. Stars twinkle because of turbulence in the atmosphere of the Earth. As the atmosphere churns, the light from the star is refracted in different directions.This causes the star's image to change slightly in brightness and position, hence twinkle..This is one of the reasons the Hubble telescope is so successful: in space, there is no atmosphere to make the stars twinkle, allowing a much better image to be obtained. Planets do not twinkle the way stars do. young person of my acquaintance asked me this question, and I didn't have a good answer. Stars twinkle because of turbulence in the atmosphere of the Earth.
