air masses

AIR CIRCULATION: 

  • Warm air expands (density decreases) and rises up leaving an area of low pressure.
  • When air goes up through upper layers of the atmosphere cools down (se enfria). 
  • Cold air contracts going down into the atmosphere, generating a high-pressure area.
  • From high pressure area, air flows near Earth’s surface to low pressures, warming up. 
  • The circuit which air flows continuously: convective cell.
  • If Earth were motionless, air circulation would follow convective cells that would extend

 THE UNIVERSE

The science that studies the Universe is astronomy.

Universe (or Cosmos): is everything that exists (matter, energy, space and time).The origin of the Universe

The most accepted theory about the origin of the universe is the Big Bang Theory:

All matter was concentrated in one point; the temperature was extremely high.

13700 million years ago there was a huge explosion, and there was an expansion in all directions.

The first atoms (hydrogen atoms) were formed, and then the first molecules.
