Robert Oppenheimer

 I will talk about Robert Oppenheimer's astonishing life. Oppenheimer was borned in New York in 1904. From now on ı will shorten Oppenheimer to Oppi, because his friends called him Oppi in the past. Oppi was raised by a non religious family, apart from that he was interested in chemistry while he was a child, but ı won't talk about his childhood, long story short ı didn t search it yet. I have no doubt that, Oppi become a professor in 1936 and he had a great cantribution to theoretical physics. Some people knows him via atomic bomb but he had great success except atomic bomb. Firstly Einstein's idea about atom reached Oppi, than he didn t bealive that because he made hundreds of equations about atom, but after a while he learned that atom was splited by german scientists.

 Oppi decided to join Manhattan project in 1942. The world war II was still continuing. He was appointed director of the Los Alamos laboratory in New Mexico in 1943 and he was commissioned in order to develop the first nuclear atomic bomb. They were successful in Manhattan project, thanks to his leadership and superior knowledge. The first atomic bomb was tested as Trinity on july 16, 1956 by Oppi and his worker. This nuclear bomb was throwed by USA to Japan in agust 1945.

II. World War

Resim
World War II took place between 1939 and 1945. The great powers of the time and most of the countries in the world participated in the war.

World War I (Western Front)

Resim
  YEAR 1914   Germany's war strategy is based on the Schlieffen Plan. According to this plan;  France will able to complete its mobilization in two weeks, would be out of the war after thirty nine days and,then, an attack would be launched on Russia, which was considered to be able to complete its mobilization within its wide geography in at least six weeks and with difficulty, by returning to the eastern front. The Schlieffen Plan, the plan Alfred von Schlieffen developed against France and Russia in World War I.   The wars on the Western Front began on August 4, 1914, with the German armies attack the Belgium. Hwever, the Belgian army showed an unexpected resistance. German troops had to capture the city of Liège, not after 24hours as planned, but after 13 days of fight and to advance into France. The German armies advancing on the territory of France encountered a hard French resistance at the crossing of the Marne river, 70 kilometer from...

Voyager 1

  Today I will talk about a spacecraft that few person knows it and it's name is Voyager. It was produced by NASA and launched into space in 5 september 1977. By the way, Voyager 1 was launched after Voyager 2. If I am not mistaken, there is a period of 16 days between them. They had same missions. For example, NASA gave tasks to Voyager 1 so as to explore the Jupiter and Saturn, apart from this, it's missions were expore the moon and ring of Jupiter and Saturn and Voyager 2 was the first spacecraft that expore Neptune and Uranus. Anyway, our topic is not Voyager 2, let's turn Voyager 1. It moved away from earth day by day and it is still moving away our earth right now. Acording to scientists, Voyager 1 was the human-made object furthest from earth. Voyager was useing nuclear enegy, this is why, Voyager will run out of it's enegy. There will be no energy so as to activate it's device between 2025 and 2030   We learnd something about Jupiter and Saturn than...
