pos: Haiti Haiti ( -LSB- ˈheɪti -RSB- Haïti -LSB- a.iti -RSB- Ayiti -LSB- ajiti -RSB- ) , officially the Republic of Haiti and formerly called Hayti , is a country located on the island of Hispaniola in the Greater Antilles archipelago of the Caribbean Sea . It occupies the western three-eighths of the island , which it shares with the Dominican Republic . Haiti is 27750 km2 in size and has an estimated 10.6 million people , making it the most populous country in the Caribbean Community ( CARICOM ) and the second-most populous country in the Caribbean as a whole .   The region was originally inhabited by the indigenous Taíno people . Spain discovered the island on 5 December 1492 during the first voyage of Christopher Columbus across the Atlantic . When Columbus initially landed in Haiti , he had thought he had found India or Asia . On Christmas Day 1492 , Columbus ' flagship the Santa Maria ran aground north of what is now Limonade . As a consequence , Columbus ordered his men to salvage what they could from the ship , and he created the first European settlement in the Americas , naming it La Navidad after the day the ship was destroyed .   The island was named La Española and claimed by Spain , which ruled until the early 17th century . Competing claims and settlements by the French led to the western portion of the island being ceded to France , which named it Saint-Domingue . The development of sugarcane plantations , worked by slaves brought from Africa , led to the colony being among the most lucrative in the world .   In the midst of the French Revolution ( 1789 -- 1799 ) , slaves and free people of colour revolted in the Haitian Revolution ( 1791 -- 1804 ) , culminating in the abolition of slavery and the defeat of Napoleon Bonaparte 's army at the Battle of Vertières . Afterward the sovereign nation of Haiti was established on 1 January 1804 the first independent nation of Latin America and the Caribbean , the second republic in the Americas , the only nation in the western hemisphere to have defeated three European superpowers ( France , Spain , and the UK ) , and the only nation in the world established as a result of a successful slave revolt . The rebellion that began in 1791 was led by a former slave and the first black general of the French Army , Toussaint Louverture , whose military genius and political acumen transformed an entire society of slaves into an independent country . Upon his death in a prison in France , he was succeeded by his lieutenant , Jean-Jacques Dessalines , who declared Haiti 's sovereignty and later became the first Emperor of Haiti , Jacques I . The Haitian Revolution lasted just over a dozen years ; and apart from Alexandre Pétion , the first President of the Republic , all the first leaders of government were former slaves . The Citadelle Laferrière is the largest fortress in the Americas . Henri Christophe former slave and first king of Haiti , Henri I built it to withstand a possible foreign attack .   It is a founding member of the United Nations , Organization of American States ( OAS ) , Association of Caribbean States , and the International Francophonie Organisation . In addition to CARICOM , it is a member of the International Monetary Fund , World Trade Organization , and the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States . It has the lowest Human Development Index in the Americas . Most recently , in February 2004 , a coup d'état originating in the north of the country forced the resignation and exile of President Jean-Bertrand Aristide . A provisional government took control with security provided by the United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti ( MINUSTAH ) .

neg: Truth and Justice Commission The Truth and Justice Commission of Mauritius was an independent truth commission established in 2009 , which explored the impact of slavery and indentured servitude in Mauritius . The Commission was tasked to investigate the dispossession of land , and `` determine appropriate measures to be extended to descendants of slaves and indentured laborers . '' It was `` unique in that it -LSB- dealt -RSB- with socio-economic class abuses '' and explored the possibility of reparations . The inclusion of reparations , whether for individuals or communities , was a controversial decision within the country which aimed to correct inequality . The Commission attempted to cover more than 370 years , the longest period of time that a truth commission has ever covered .   The Commission consisted of five members who were appointed by the then President Sir Anerood Jugnauth . The President selected Alex Boraine , the former deputy chair of the South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission , and four Mauritians to oversea the research and publication of a document consisting of 7 Volumes , and detailing over 3 centuries of Mauritian history .   The Truth and Justice Commission documented the `` economics of colonialism , slavery , and indentured servitude , the experiences of indentured Africans , Indians , and French engagés , and living and working conditions on sugar estates . '' In order to aid Mauritians in reconciling the past the commission recommended : `` 1 ) memorializing slavery ; 2 ) a better understanding and more inclusive account of Mauritian history and culture ; 3 ) a better and increased protections of Mauritian heritage ; 4 ) a less racist and elitist society ; 5 ) a more democratic public life , and ; 6 ) empowerment of Mauritians of African and Malagasy origin , as well as other recommendations to increase economic and social justice , particularly related to land issues and equitable and judicious use of the environment . '' Many of these recommendations have yet to be acted upon .

neg: Human trafficking in Panama Panama is a source , transit , and destination country for women and children subjected to trafficking in persons , specifically forced prostitution . Although some Panamanian women and girls are found in forced prostitution in other countries in Latin America and in Europe , most Panamanian trafficking victims are exploited within the country . Although statistics were lacking , both NGOs and government officials anecdotally reported that commercial sexual exploitation of children was greater in rural areas and in the city of Colon than in Panama City . NGOs report that some Panamanian children , mostly young girls , are subjected to involuntary domestic servitude . Most foreign sex trafficking victims are adult women from Colombia , the Dominican Republic , and neighboring Central American countries ; some victims migrate voluntarily to Panama to work but are subsequently forced into prostitution . Weak controls along Panama 's borders make the nation an easy transit point for irregular migrants , from Latin America , East Africa , and Asia , some of whom may fall victim to human trafficking .   The government of Panama does not fully comply with the minimum standards for the elimination of trafficking ; however , it is making significant efforts to do so . During the reporting period , authorities increased public awareness about the prostitution of children through seminars in schools and an outreach campaign with the tourism sector . Despite such efforts , the government showed little evidence of progress in combating human trafficking . Law enforcement efforts remained weak , the Panamanian penal code did not prohibit trafficking for forced labor , and the government failed to provide adequate assistance to victims and to identify trafficking victims among vulnerable populations ; therefore , Panama is placed on Tier 2 Watch List .

neg: Ivorian presidential election, 2010 A presidential election was held in two rounds in Ivory Coast ( Côte d'Ivoire ) . The first round was held on 31 October 2010 and a second round , in which President Laurent Gbagbo faced opposition leader Alassane Ouattara , was held on 28 November 2010 . Originally scheduled to be held in 2005 , the vote was delayed several times due to the Ivorian Civil War and difficulties involved in the organization and preparation of the election . A peace agreement between the government and the former rebel New Forces was signed on 4 March 2007 , and in late April 2009 , it was announced that the election would be held by 6 December 2009 , and that the date would be announced shortly . On 15 May 2009 , the date was announced to be 29 November 2009 .  On 11 November , the election was postponed again due to delays in the electoral roll . It was announced on 3 December 2009 to be held in late February or early March 2010 .   The election , in which ethnicity and the country 's north-south divide played a crucial role , ultimately pitted President Gbagbo , who had a strong support base in the south , against the long-time opposition leader and former Prime Minister Ouattara , who had overwhelming support in much of the north . The events leading up to the second round and following it were characterized by serious tension and some incidents of violence , and the preliminary report of the Carter Center `` cautions against a rush to judgment regarding the overall credibility of the election '' , but most observers considered that the overall result was not compromised , and that the election was essentially free and fair . On 2 December 2010 , the Independent Electoral Commission ( IEC ) released provisional results showing that Ouattara had won the election in the second round with 54 % of the vote . However the President of the Constitutional Council immediately declared that the results were invalid and the next day , in accordance with article 94 of the Constitution , the Constitutional Council declared Gbagbo the winner . Both Gbagbo and Ouattara claimed victory and took the presidential oath of office . The ensuing events led to the 2010 -- 2011 Ivorian crisis .   The international community , including the United Nations , the African Union , the Economic Community of West African States ( ECOWAS ) , the European Union , the United States , and former colonial power France have affirmed their support for Ouattara , who is `` almost universally acknowledged to have defeated -LSB- Gbagbo -RSB- at the ballot box , '' and have called for Gbagbo to step down , despite the fact that the body charged by the Constitution with determining electoral disputes had declared Gbagbo to be the winner . On 18 December , Gbagbo ordered all UN peacekeepers to leave the country . However , the UN has refused , and the Security Council has extended the mandate of the UN Mission in Ivory Coast until 30 June 2011 . International powers have been in talks to enlarge the UN force in the Ivory Coast . The World Bank has halted loans to the country and travel restrictions have been placed on Gbagbo and his political allies . The rising political tensions resulted in a sharp jump in cocoa prices , up to an increase of 10 percent . The Ivory Coast is the world 's largest producer of the crop .   After fighting the Second Ivorian Civil War , Gbagbo was forcefully removed from office and Ouattara took office as the undisputed president on April 11 , 2012 . Afterward , Gbagbo was indicted and arrested by the International Criminal Court .

neg: André Apaid André Apaid , Jr. , the leader of the Group of 184 in Haiti , the civil society movement which forced Jean-Bertrand Aristide from power in 2004 through a coup d'état . He is the head of Alpha Industries , one of the largest assembly factories in Haiti , and of Fondation Nouvelle Haiti , a member of the Initiative de la Societe Civile group .   Numerous allegations have been made against Apaid :  His father , Andre Apaid , Senior , a Haitian immigrant of Lebanese origin , had been a strong supporter of Jean-Claude Duvalier .  The root of the Apaid family 's opposition to Aristide is believed to be Aristide 's doubling of the minimum wage in 1991 , which conflicted with Alpha Industries business practices . Alpha Industries had been described in international reports as a notorious sweatshop . Apaid has also been accused of tax evasion .  Apaid is the head of the Group of 184 , a group that is seen by some as a legitimate political organization and by others as an instigator of violence .  Apaid reportedly has close ties with Thomas `` Labanye '' Robinson , a violent and dangerous gang leader in Cité Soleil , a slum outside Port-au-Prince . The Center for the Study of Human Rights states that Apaid pays Labanye to kill supporters of the Lavalas party , the political party of Aristide .  The switch to electronic voting in Haiti , though the majority of Haiti is without electricity , is being promoted by Claude Apaid , the brother of André Apaid and the owner of the computer company that has secured the government contract to supply voting machines .

At the same time , the sanctions would be reimposed if at any point the Council is informed by the Secretary-General that the parties to the agreement or any other authorities in Haiti had not complied in good faith with the agreement . All measures would be reviewed with a view to lifting them definitively when the Secretary-General , having regard for the views of the Secretary General of the Organization of American States , informed the Security Council that all parties have fully implemented the agreement .   The agreement would not be fully implemented which led the Security Council to reimpose sanctions in Resolution 875 .

neg: Non-Aligned Movement The Non-Aligned Movement ( NAM ) is a group of states that are not formally aligned with or against any major power bloc . , the movement has 120 members .   The purpose of the organization has been enumerated as to ensure `` the national independence , sovereignty , territorial integrity and security of non-aligned countries '' in their `` struggle against imperialism , colonialism , neo-colonialism , racism , and all forms of foreign aggression , occupation , domination , interference or hegemony as well as against great power and bloc politics , '' by Fidel Castro in the Havana Declaration of 1979 . The countries of the Non-Aligned Movement represent nearly two-thirds of the United Nations ' members and contain 55 % of the world population . Membership is particularly concentrated in countries considered to be developing or part of the Third World .   Although many of the Non-Aligned Movement 's members were actually quite closely aligned with one or another of the superpowers , the movement still maintained cohesion throughout the Cold War , even despite several conflicts between members which also threatened the movement . In the years since the Cold War 's end , it has focused on developing multilateral ties and connections as well as unity among the developing nations of the world , especially those within the Global South .

neg: Jamaican Americans Jamaican Americans are Americans who have full or partial Jamaican ancestry .

There are also communities of Jamaican Americans residing in Philadelphia , Boston , South Florida , Tampa , Los Angeles , Orlando , Baltimore , Washington , D.C. , Atlanta , Cleveland , Western New York , Connecticut , and New Jersey .   After 1838 , European colonies in the Caribbean with expanding sugar industries imported large numbers of immigrants to meet their acute labor shortage . Large numbers of Jamaicans were recruited to work in Panama and Costa Rica in the 1850s . After slavery was abolished in the United States in 1865 , American planters imported temporary workers , called `` swallow migrants '' , to harvest crops on an annual basis . These workers , many of them Jamaicans , returned to their countries after harvest . Between 1881 and the beginning of World War I , the United States recruited over 250,000 workers from the Caribbean , 90,000 of whom were Jamaicans , to work on the Panama Canal . During both world wars , the United States again recruited Jamaican men for service on various American bases in the region . The vast majority of Jamaican American are of black Afro-Caribbean descent .

neg: Canada–Latin America relations Canada -- Latin America relations are relations between Canada and Latin America . This includes the bilateral ties between Canada and the individual Latin American states , plurilateral ties between Canada and any group of those states , or multilateral relations through groups like the Organization of American States ( OAS ) .   Canada and Latin America share ties of geography as part of the Western Hemisphere and history through the shared experience of European colonization . Culturally , Canada shares with the other American societies a mixture of European , indigenous American , and immigrant influences . Parts of Canada are majority-French speaking , and since French is a `` Latin '' language , Canada ( or more often Quebec ) is sometimes considered an honorary part of Latin America . However , Latin Americans may also group Canadians with United States citizens as norteamericanos or gringos . For both Canadians and Latin Americans the importance of relations with the United States may overshadow relations with each other . However Canada 's importance in the region has risen since joining the OAS in 1990 .

neg: Haiti at the Paralympics Haiti first participated in the Paralympic Games in 2008 , sending a single athlete , Nephtalie Jean-Louis , to compete in powerlifting . Due to unspecified `` problems with her weight '' , however , Jean-Louis was ultimately unable to compete , and was listed as a non-starter in her event ( powerlifting ) .   Thus it was only at the 2012 Summer Paralympics in London that Haitian athletes competed for the first time . The country was represented by two athletes : Nephtalie Jean-Louis , in the shot put and javelin rather than in powerlifting ; and Josue Cajuste , also in the shot put and javelin .

The Haitian government estimated that 230,000 people died ,  300,000 were injured and 1,000,000 made homeless by the quake .   The earthquake caused extensive damage to infrastructure in southwestern Haiti -- in February , Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive estimated that 250,000 residences and 30,000 commercial buildings had collapsed or were severely damaged .  The deputy mayor of Léogâne , at the epicentre of the earthquake , reported that 90 percent of buildings in the city were destroyed and Léogâne had `` to be totally rebuilt . '' As much as 90 percent of Grand-Goâve was devastated , including all public buildings .

neg: Andean states The Andean States ( Estados Andinos ) are a group of nations in South America connected by the Andes mountain range . `` Andean States '' is sometimes used to refer to all seven countries that the Andes runs through , regions with a shared culture primarily spread during the times of the Inca Empire ( such as the Quechua language and Andean cuisine ) , or it can be used in a geopolitical sense to designate countries in the region that are members of the Andean Community trade group and have a local ( as opposed to European ) cultural orientation .   The Andes extend through the western part of South America in following countries :        ( not considered to be geopolitically an Andean State )  ( not considered to be geopolitically an Andean State )   When grouped as `` the Andean states '' , the emphasis is on the mountainous regions of these countries .

Venezuela , Colombia , Peru , Ecuador and Bolivia are part of the Andean Community ( a trade grouping ) , and each contains Amazon Rainforest and Amazonian indigenous people as well as Andean mountains .

neg: Import substitution industrialization Import substitution industrialization ( ISI ) is a trade and economic policy which advocates replacing foreign imports with domestic production . ISI is based on the premise that a country should attempt to reduce its foreign dependency through the local production of industrialized products . The term primarily refers to 20th-century development economics policies , although it has been advocated since the 18th century by economists such as Friedrich List and Alexander Hamilton .   ISI policies were enacted by countries in the Global South with the intention of producing development and self-sufficiency through the creation of an internal market . ISI works by having the state lead economic development through nationalization , subsidization of vital industries ( including agriculture , power generation , etc. ) , increased taxation , and highly protectionist trade policies . Import substitution industrialization was gradually abandoned by developing countries in the 1980s and 1990s due to the insistence of the IMF and World Bank on their structural adjustment programs of global market-driven liberalization aimed at the Global South .   In the context of Latin American development , the term `` Latin American structuralism '' refers to the era of import substitution industrialization in many Latin American countries from the 1950s until the 1980s . The theories behind Latin American structuralism and ISI were organized in the works of Raúl Prebisch , Hans Singer , Celso Furtado , and other structural economic thinkers , and gained prominence with the creation of the United Nations Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean ( UNECLAC or CEPAL ) . While the theorists behind ISI or Latin American structuralism were not homogeneous and did not belong to one particular school of economic thought , ISI and Latin American structuralism and the theorists who developed its economic framework shared a basic common belief in a state-directed , centrally planned form of economic development . In promoting state-induced industrialization through governmental spending through the infant industry argument , ISI and Latin American structuralist approaches to development are largely influenced by a wide range of Keynesian , communitarian , and socialist economic thought . ISI is often associated and linked with dependency theory , although the latter has traditionally adopted a much broader Marxist sociological framework in addressing what are perceived to be the origins of underdevelopment through the historical effects of colonialism , Eurocentrism , and neoliberalism .

neg: Unified Party of Haitian Communists The Unified Party of Haitian Communists ( Parti unifié des communistes haitiens ) was a political party in Haiti . PUCH was established in 1968 by the mergers the Popular Entente Party ( founded in 1959 ) and the Party of Union of Haitian Democrats ( founded in 1954 and was until 1965 called the People 's Party of National Liberation ) . The declaration of merger of the two parties stated : `` PUCH is the conscious and organized vanguard of the working class , fighting under the banner of the Marxist-Leninist ideology . The path of the Haitian revolution , as defined in the documents of PUCH - is the path of armed struggle , which must be carried out in response to the reactionary violence '' . PUCH was a clandestine party from its foundation . The party initiated a lot of work for agrarian reform amongst the peasantry in the villages .   In 1969 the François Duvalier regime launched a crackdown on the party . Various urban and regional party organizations were dismantled . Hundreds of PUCH activists were jailed and tortured . The Central Committee secretaries Gérald Brisson and Raymond Jean Francois were killed , as were the members of the Port-au-Prince committee Jacques Jeannot and Adrien Sansarik . The party was however , able to rebuild illegal party organs and mass organizations . In June 1971 the party leadership put forward an action programme for unity of all progressive forces fighting against the Haitian regime . In the 1980s , the party leadership was exiled in France .   The PUCH sent a delegation to the 1969 International Meeting of Communist and Workers Parties held in Moscow . The party endorsed the documents adopted at the meeting .

The termination would come into effect at 23:59 Eastern Standard Time on 18 October 1993 unless the Council heard that the parties were implementing the agreements . Funds that were frozen could be released at the request of President Jean-Bertrand Aristide or Prime Minister Robert Malval , and that the Committee established in Resolution 841 would have the authority to grant exceptions to the prohibitions on a case-by-case basis .   The resolution expressed the Council 's readiness to consider further measures if authorities and others in Haiti continue to impede UNMIH and its rights to freedom of movement and communication or others necessary to carry out its mandate .

neg: Illegal logging in Madagascar Illegal logging has been a problem in Madagascar for decades and is perpetuated by extreme poverty and government corruption . Often taking the form of selective logging , the trade has been driven by high international demand for expensive , fine-grained lumber such as rosewood and ebony . Historically , logging and exporting in Madagascar have been regulated by the Malagasy government , although the logging of rare hardwoods was explicitly banned from protected areas in 2000 . Since then , government orders and memos have intermittently alternated between permitting and banning exports of precious woods . The most commonly cited reason for permitting exports is to salvage valuable wood from cyclone damage , although this reasoning has come under heavy scrutiny . This oscillating availability of Malagasy rosewood and other precious woods has created a market of rising and falling prices , allowing traders or `` timber barons '' to stockpile illegally sourced logs during periodic bans and then flood the market when the trade windows open and prices are high .   The unsustainable exploitation of these tropical hardwoods , particularly rosewood from the SAVA Region , has escalated significantly since the start of the 2009 Malagasy political crisis . Thousands of poorly paid Malagasy loggers have flooded into the national parks -- especially in the northeast -- building roads , setting up logging camps , and cutting down even the most difficult to reach rosewood trees . Illegal activities are openly flaunted , armed militia have descended upon local villages , and a rosewood mafia easily bribe government officials , buying export permits with ease . These illegal operations are funded in part by advance payments for future shipments ( financed by Chinese expatriates and Chinese importers ) and by loans from large , international banks . Demand is fueled mostly by a growing Chinese middle class and their desire for exotic imperial-style furniture . European and American demand for high-end musical instruments and furniture have also played a role . However , public scrutiny has put significant pressure on shipping companies involved in the trade , and the United States is starting to enforce the Lacey Act by investigating companies with suspected involvement in the illegal trade of Malagasy precious woods .   Logging in Madagascar 's tropical rainforests has had many secondary effects , beyond the risk of depletion of rare , endemic trees . Habitat has been disturbed , illegal mining has begun , local people have turned in desperation to the forests for resources , and poaching of endangered wildlife has escalated . Lemurs , the most well-known faunal group from the island , have been captured for the exotic pet trade as well as killed for food . Even the most critically endangered species have been targeted , primarily to feed a growing demand for delicacy food in up-scale restaurants . The local villagers have also suffered as tourism has declined sharply or ceased almost entirely . Some have resorted to working as loggers for minimal pay , while others have spoken out against it , often receiving death threats from the rosewood mafia in return .

neg: Marrakesh Agreement The Marrakesh Agreement , manifested by the Marrakesh Declaration , was an agreement signed in Marrakesh , Morocco , by 124 nations on 15 April 1994 , marking the culmination of the 12-year-long Uruguay Round and establishing the World Trade Organization , which officially came into being on January 1 , 1995 .   The agreement developed out of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade ( GATT ) , supplemented by a number of other agreements on issues including trade in services , sanitary and phytosanitary measures , trade-related aspects of intellectual property and technical barriers to trade . It also established a new , more efficient and legally binding means of dispute resolution . The various agreements which make up the Marrakesh Agreement combine as an indivisible whole ; no entity can be party to any one agreement without being party to them all .

neg: World Trade University World Trade University is a failed private university in British Columbia , Canada . Launched in 2001 , the university withdrew its application for degree-granting status in 2008 and `` has yet to open '' .   The university was created via a private member 's bill of the British Columbia government -- an act that the Confederation of University Faculty Associations of B.C. ( CUFABC ) is requesting be rescinded .   The British Columbia government `` erroneously '' described the university as a `` United Nations mechanism '' , and the university web site removed logos of the World Bank and the United Nations after those institutions denied that there were partnerships with the university . The university is located in a former military base , CFB Chilliwack , renovated at a cost of $ 1 million paid by the city .   An August 2008 article in the National Post concluded that the story of this institution `` reflected badly on the B.C. government . ''

neg: Community of Latin American and Caribbean States The Community of Latin American and Caribbean States ( Comunidad de Estados Latinoamericanos y Caribeños , CELAC Comunidade de Estados Latino-Americanos e Caribenhos Communauté des États Latino-Américains et Caribéens Gemeenschap van Latijns-Amerikaanse en Caraïbische Staten ) is a regional bloc of Latin American and Caribbean states thought out on February 23 , 2010 , at the Rio Group -- Caribbean Community Unity Summit , and created on December 3 , 2011 , in Caracas , Venezuela , with the signature of The Declaration of Caracas . It consists of 33 sovereign countries in the Americas representing roughly 600 million people . Due to the focus of the organization on Latin American and Caribbean countries , other countries and territories in the Americas , Canada and the United States , as well as the overseas territories in the Americas of France ( Overseas departments and territories of France ) , the Netherlands ( Dutch Caribbean ) , Denmark ( Greenland ) and the United Kingdom ( British Overseas Territories ) are not included .   CELAC is an example of a decade-long push for deeper integration within Latin America . CELAC was created to deepen Latin American integration and by some to reduce the significant influence of the United States on the politics and economics of Latin America . It is seen as an alternative to the Organization of American States ( OAS ) , the regional body that was founded by United States and 21 other Latin American nations originally as a countermeasure to potential Soviet influence in the region .   CELAC is the successor of the Rio Group and the Latin American and Caribbean Summit on Integration and Development ( CALC ) . In July 2010 , CELAC selected President of Venezuela Hugo Chávez and President of Chile Sebastián Piñera , as co-chairs of the forum to draft statutes for the organization .

neg: Post-industrial economy A post-industrial economy refers to a period of growth within an industrialized economy or nation in which the relative importance of manufacturing reduces and that of services , information , and research grows .  Such economies are often marked by :  A declining manufacturing sector , resulting in deindustrialization ,  a large service sector , and  an increase in the amount of information technology , often leading to an `` information age '' . Information , knowledge , and creativity are the new raw materials of such an economy .   The industry aspect of a post-industrial economy is sent into less developed nations which manufacture what is needed at lower costs ( see outsourcing ) . This occurrence is typical of nations that industrialized in the past such as the United States and most Western European countries .


query: Ceres is within the orbit of Neptune.

pos: Ceres (dwarf planet) Ceres ( -LSB- ˈsɪəriːz -RSB- minor-planet designation : 1 Ceres ) is the largest object in the asteroid belt that lies between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter . Its diameter is approximately 945 km , making it the largest of the minor planets within the orbit of Neptune . The 33rd-largest known body in the Solar System , it is the only dwarf planet within the orbit of Neptune.Due to its eccentric orbit , the dwarf planet Pluto was also within the orbit of Neptune from 1979 to 1999 , and will be again from approximately 2227 to 2247 . Composed of rock and ice , Ceres is estimated to compose approximately one third of the mass of the entire asteroid belt . Ceres is the only object in the asteroid belt known to be rounded by its own gravity ( though detailed analysis was required to exclude 4 Vesta ) . From Earth , the apparent magnitude of Ceres ranges from 6.7 to 9.3 , and hence even at its brightest it is too dim to be seen with the naked eye except under extremely dark skies .   Ceres was the first asteroid to be discovered ( by Giuseppe Piazzi at Palermo on 1 January 1801 ) . It was originally considered a planet , but was reclassified as an asteroid in the 1850s after many other objects in similar orbits were discovered .   Ceres appears to be differentiated into a rocky core and an icy mantle , and may have a remnant internal ocean of liquid water under the layer of ice . The surface is probably a mixture of water ice and various hydrated minerals such as carbonates and clay . In January 2014 , emissions of water vapor were detected from several regions of Ceres . This was unexpected because large bodies in the asteroid belt typically do not emit vapor , a hallmark of comets .   The robotic NASA spacecraft Dawn entered orbit around Ceres on 6 March 2015 . Pictures with a resolution previously unattained were taken during imaging sessions starting in January 2015 as Dawn approached Ceres , showing a cratered surface . Two distinct bright spots ( or high-albedo features ) inside a crater ( different from the bright spots observed in earlier Hubble images ) were seen in a 19 February 2015 image , leading to speculation about a possible cryovolcanic origin or outgassing . On 3 March 2015 , a NASA spokesperson said the spots are consistent with highly reflective materials containing ice or salts , but that cryovolcanism is unlikely . However , on 2 September 2016 , NASA scientists released a paper in Science that claimed that a massive ice volcano called Ahuna Mons is the strongest evidence yet for the existence of these mysterious ice volcanoes . On 11 May 2015 , NASA released a higher-resolution image showing that , instead of one or two spots , there are actually several . On 9 December 2015 , NASA scientists reported that the bright spots on Ceres may be related to a type of salt , particularly a form of brine containing magnesium sulfate hexahydrite ( MgSO4 · 6H2O ) ; the spots were also found to be associated with ammonia-rich clays . In June 2016 , near-infrared spectra of these bright areas were found to be consistent with a large amount of sodium carbonate , implying that recent geologic activity was probably involved in the creation of the bright spots .   In October 2015 , NASA released a true color portrait of Ceres made by Dawn . In February 2017 , organics were reported to have been detected on Ceres in Ernutet crater ( see image ) .

neg: Mare Nectaris Mare Nectaris ( `` Sea of Nectar '' ) is a small lunar mare or sea ( a volcanic lava plain noticeably darker than the rest of the Moon 's surface ) located south of Mare Tranquillitatis southwest of Mare Fecunditatis , on the near side of the moon . Montes Pyrenaeus borders the mare to the east and Sinus Asperitatis fuses to its northwestern edge . It is 84,000 square kilometers in size .   Several large craters are situated at the borders of Mare Nectaris . Biggest one is lava-filled Fracastorius ( 124 km ) , which fuses with southern coast of the Sea . A prominent trio of 100-km craters Theophilus , Cyrillus and Catharina is located near northwestern coast . Other notable feature is a `` ghost crater '' Daguerre , almost entirely covered with lava , in the northern part of Mare Nectaris .   Mare Nectaris is located in the central part of 860-km-diameter impact basin , which was formed 3.8 -- 3.9 billions year ago . This event marks the beginning of Nectarian period of the lunar geologic timescale . Best-preserved ( southwestern ) part of the rim of this basin is called Rupes Altai .   Lava filling of Mare Nectaris is younger than the basin itself . The mare material is approximately 1000m in depth , and mainly of the Nectarian period and the Lower Imbrian epoch , with the mare material of the Upper Imbrian epoch . The crater Theophilus on the northeastern side of the mare is of the Eratosthenian period . Thus , the crater is younger than the mare to its southeast . Enough subsidence has occurred to open a few arcuate grabens on the western margin of the mare .   A mass concentration ( mascon ) , or gravitational high , was identified in the center of Mare Nectaris from Doppler tracking of the five Lunar Orbiter spacecraft in 1968 . The mascon was confirmed and mapped at higher resolution with later orbiters such as Lunar Prospector and GRAIL .

neg: Transit of Mercury A transit of Mercury across the Sun takes place when the planet Mercury passes directly between the Sun and a superior planet , becoming visible against ( and hence obscuring a small portion of ) the solar disk . During a transit , Mercury appears as a tiny black dot moving across the disk of the Sun .   Transits of Mercury with respect to Earth are much more frequent than transits of Venus , with about 13 or 14 per century , in part because Mercury is closer to the Sun and orbits it more rapidly .   Transits of Mercury occur in May or November . The last four transits occurred on November 15 , 1999 ; May 7 , 2003 ; November 8 , 2006 ; and May 9 , 2016 . The next will occur on November 11 , 2019 , and then on November 13 , 2032 . A typical transit lasts several hours .   On June 3 , 2014 , the Mars rover Curiosity observed the planet Mercury transiting the Sun , marking the first time a planetary transit has been observed from a celestial body besides Earth .   More generally , transits can also occur for Venus and were investigated in the context of searching for the hypothetical inner planet Vulcan .

neg: Aquarius (astrology) Aquarius ( Greek : Ὑδροχόος Hydrokhoös , Latin : Aquārius ) is the eleventh astrological sign in the Zodiac , originating from the constellation Aquarius .   The water carrier represented by the zodiacal constellation Aquarius is Ganymede , a beautiful Phrygian youth . Ganymede was the son of Tros , king of Troy ( according to Lucian , he was also the son of Dardanus ) . While tending to his father 's flocks on Mount Ida , Ganymede was spotted by Jupiter . The king of gods became enamored of the boy and flew down to the mountain in the form of a large bird , whisking Ganymede away to the heavens . Ever since , the boy has served as cupbearer to the gods . Ovid has Orpheus sing the tale :   `` The king of the gods was once fired with love for Phrygian Ganymede , and when that happened Jupiter found another shape preferable to his own . Wishing to turn himself into a bird , he none the less scorned to change into any save that which can carry his thunderbolts . Then without delay , beating the air on borrowed pinions , he snatched away the shepherd of Ilium , who even now mixes the winecups , and supplies Jove with nectar , to the annoyance of Juno '' ( Metamorphoses X 154-160 ) .   Aquarius is a summer constellation in the northern hemisphere , found near Pisces and Cetus . It is especially notable as the radiant for four meteor showers , the largest of which is the Delta Aquarid meteor shower in late July and early August .   Under the tropical zodiac , the sun is in Aquarius typically between January 20 and February 18 , while under the Sidereal Zodiac , the sun is in Aquarius from approximately February 15 to March 14 , depending on leap year .

CERES is a charity with the principal purpose of `` protecting and enhancing the natural environment , including by providing information and education to increase understanding of human impacts on the natural environment '' .   It aims to pursue this purpose by being a `` place for community-based learning and action '' to create the following ways of living together :  environmentally beneficial  socially just  economically satisfying  culturally enriching  spiritually nurturing  CERES received the 1996 Banksia Environmental Award for Education and Training , and has also received many other awards .

neg: Nine Views Nine Views ( Devet pogleda ) is an ambiental installation in Zagreb , Croatia which , together with the sculpture Prizemljeno Sunce ( The Grounded Sun ) , makes up a consistent model of the Solar System .   Prizemljeno Sunce by Ivan Kožarić was first displayed in 1971 by the building of the Croatian National Theatre , and since then changed location a few times . Since 1994 it has been situated in the Bogovićeva Street . It is simply a bronze sphere around 2 metres in diameter .   In 2004 , artist Davor Preis had a two-week exhibition in the Josip Račić Exhibition Hall in Margaretska Street in Zagreb , and afterwards he placed 9 models of the planets of the Solar System around Zagreb , to complete a model of the entire solar system . The models ' sizes as well as their distances from the Prizemljeno Sunce are all in the same scale as the Prizemljeno Sunce itself .   Preis did this installation with very little or no publicity , so his installation is n't well known among citizens of Zagreb . On a few occasions individuals or small groups of people , particularly physics students , `` discovered '' that there was a model of the solar system in Zagreb . One of the earliest efforts to find all of the planets was started in November 2004 on the web forum of the student section of Croatian Physics Society .   The locations of the planets are as follows :   Mercury - 3 Margaretska Street  Venus - 3 Ban Josip Jelačić Square  Earth - 9 Varšavska Street  Mars - 21 Tkalčićeva Street  Jupiter - 71 Voćarska Street  Saturn - 1 Račićeva Street  Uranus - 9 Siget ( not at the residential building but at the garage across the street )  Neptune - Kozari Way 48  Pluto - Bologna Alley ( underpass ) - included in the installation before being demoted to dwarf planet   The system is at scale 1:680 000 000 . Earth 's model is about 1.9 cm in size and at 225 m distance from the sun 's model , while Pluto 's model is 7.7 km away from it .

neg: Timeline of discovery of Solar System planets and their moons The timeline of discovery of Solar System planets and their natural satellites charts the progress of the discovery of new bodies over history . Each object is listed in chronological order of its discovery ( multiple dates occur when the moments of imaging , observation , and publication differ ) , identified through its various designations ( including temporary and permanent schemes ) , and the discoverer ( s ) listed .   Historically the naming of moons did not always match the times of their discovery . Traditionally , the discoverer enjoys the privilege of naming the new object ; however , some neglected to do so ( E. E. Barnard stated he would `` defer any suggestions as to a name '' -LSB- for Amalthea -RSB- `` until a later paper '' but never got around to picking one from the numerous suggestions he received ) or actively declined ( S. B. Nicholson stated `` Many have asked what the new satellites '' -LSB- Lysithea and Carme -RSB- `` are to be named . They will be known only by the numbers X and XI , written in Roman numerals , and usually prefixed by the letter J to identify them with Jupiter . '' ) . The issue arose nearly as soon as planetary satellites were discovered : Galileo referred to the four main satellites of Jupiter using numbers while the names suggested by his rival Simon Marius gradually gained universal acceptance . The International Astronomical Union ( IAU ) eventually started cleaning up the naming business in the late 1970s .

neg: HD 187123 c HD 187123 c is an extrasolar planet located approximately 156 light-years away in the constellation of Cygnus , orbiting the star HD 187123 . This planet was published in 2006 . The radius of the planet 's orbit is 4.80 AU , 113 times more distant from the star than first companion . This takes 10 years to orbit . As it is typical for very long-period planets , the orbit is eccentric , referring to as `` eccentric Jupiter '' . At periastron , the orbital distance is 3.60 AU and at apastron , the distance is 6.00 AU . The planet 's mass is nearly 2 times that of Jupiter , but is likely to be smaller in size than the inner planet .

neg: Titius–Bode law The Titius -- Bode law ( sometimes termed just Bode 's law ) is a hypothesis that the bodies in some orbital systems , including the Sun 's , orbit at semi-major axes in a function of planetary sequence . The formula suggests that , extending outward , each planet would be approximately twice as far from the Sun as the one before . The hypothesis correctly anticipated the orbits of Ceres ( in the asteroid belt ) and Uranus , but failed as a predictor of Neptune 's orbit and has eventually been superseded as a theory of solar system formation . It is named for Johann Daniel Titius and Johann Elert Bode .

neg: Venus Venus is the second planet from the Sun , orbiting it every 224.7 Earth days . It has the longest rotation period ( 243 days ) of any planet in the Solar System and rotates in the opposite direction to most other planets . It has no natural satellites . It is named after the Roman goddess of love and beauty . It is the second-brightest natural object in the night sky after the Moon , reaching an apparent magnitude of − 4.6 , bright enough to cast shadows at night and , though rare , occasionally be visible in broad daylight . Because Venus orbits within Earth 's orbit it is an inferior planet and never appears to venture far from the Sun ; its maximum angular distance from the Sun ( elongation ) is 47.8 ° .   Venus is a terrestrial planet and is sometimes called Earth 's `` sister planet '' because of their similar size , mass , proximity to the Sun , and bulk composition . It is radically different from Earth in other respects . It has the densest atmosphere of the four terrestrial planets , consisting of more than 96 % carbon dioxide . The atmospheric pressure at the planet 's surface is 92 times that of Earth , or roughly the pressure found 900 m underwater on Earth . Venus is by far the hottest planet in the Solar System , with a mean surface temperature of 735 K , even though Mercury is closer to the Sun . Venus is shrouded by an opaque layer of highly reflective clouds of sulfuric acid , preventing its surface from being seen from space in visible light . It may have had water oceans in the past , but these would have vaporized as the temperature rose due to a runaway greenhouse effect . The water has probably photodissociated , and the free hydrogen has been swept into interplanetary space by the solar wind because of the lack of a planetary magnetic field . Venus 's surface is a dry desertscape interspersed with slab-like rocks and is periodically resurfaced by volcanism .   As one of the brightest objects in the sky , Venus has been a major fixture in human culture for as long as records have existed . It has been made sacred to gods of many cultures , and has been a prime inspiration for writers and poets as the `` morning star '' and `` evening star '' . Venus was the first planet to have its motions plotted across the sky , as early as the second millennium BC .   As the closest planet to Earth , Venus has been a prime target for early interplanetary exploration . It was the first planet beyond Earth visited by a spacecraft ( Mariner 2 in 1962 ) , and the first to be successfully landed on ( by Venera 7 in 1970 ) . Venus 's thick clouds render observation of its surface impossible in visible light , and the first detailed maps did not emerge until the arrival of the Magellan orbiter in 1991 . Plans have been proposed for rovers or more complex missions , but they are hindered by Venus 's hostile surface conditions .

neg: 9 Ceti 9 Ceti is the Flamsteed designation for a star in the equatorial constellation of Cetus . It has an apparent visual magnitude of 6.39 , which is below the limit that can be seen with the naked eye by a typical observer . ( According to the Bortle scale , it is possible for some observers to see it from dark rural skies . ) Based upon measurements made by the Hipparcos spacecraft , this star is around 68 light years away from the Sun . There is a magnitude 12.57 optical companion at an angular separation of 214 arc seconds along a position angle of 294 ° ( as of 1999 ) , although the pair are not physically associated as they have different proper motions .   This is a solar analog , which is defined as a `` Population I dwarf with gross properties not very different from those of the Sun '' . It is a G-type main sequence star with a stellar classification of G3 V , which means it is generating energy through the fusion of hydrogen into helium at its core . The mass and radius of the star are similar to the Sun , although the abundance of elements other than hydrogen and helium is about 50 % greater . It is much younger than the Sun , being an estimated 850 million years of age . The effective temperature of the stellar atmosphere is around 5,807 K , giving it the yellow-hued glow of a G-type star .   In 1980 , this was found to be a variable star with a periodicity of 7.655 days , and it was given variable star designation BE Cet . This variation in luminosity was interpreted to be the result of rotational modulation of star spot activity in the photosphere , and hence it is classified as a BY Draconis variable . There is considerable variation in the strength of the surface activity -- to the point where it has appeared inactive during some observation runs . The strength of the surface magnetic field was measured to be 450 G . The spectrum of this star includes lines of titanium oxide and calcium hydride , which , for a star of this class , is further evidence of star spot activity . Star spots cover an estimated 3 % of the surface .   This star has been examined for evidence of a planetary companion or a debris disk , but as of 2015 none has been found . The age of the star and its motion through space suggest that it is a member of the Hyades stellar kinematic group .

neg: HD 17156 b HD 17156 b is an extrasolar planet approximately 240 light-years away in the constellation of Cassiopeia . The planet was discovered orbiting the yellow subgiant star HD 17156 in April 2007 . The planet is classified as a relatively cool hot Jupiter planet slightly smaller than Jupiter but slightly larger than Saturn in a so-called `` torched orbit '' . This highly-eccentric three-week orbit takes it approximately 0.0523 AU of the star at periastron before swinging out to approximately 0.2665 AU at apastron . Its eccentricity is about the same as 16 Cygni Bb , a so-called `` eccentric Jupiter '' . Until 2009 , HD 17156 b was the transiting planet with the longest orbital period .   The planet was discovered on April 14 , 2007 by a team using the radial velocity method on the Keck and Subaru telescopes . The team made an initial , negative , transit search , but they were only able to cover 25 % of the search space . This left the possibility of a transit open .   After the possibility of a transit was discussed on oklo.org , various groups performed a follow-on search . These searches confirmed a three-hour transit on October 2 , 2007 and a paper was published two days later .   Careful radial velocity measurements have made it possible to detect the Rossiter -- McLaughlin effect , the shifting in photospheric spectral lines caused by the planet occulting a part of the rotating stellar surface . This effect allows the measurement of the angle between the planet 's orbital plane and the equatorial plane of the star . This planet 's spin-orbit angle was initially measured by Narita in 2007 as +62 ± 25 but has been remeasured by Cochran +9.4 ± 9.3 degrees . By analogy with HD 149026 b , a low angle would imply the formation of the planet was peaceful and probably involved interactions with the protoplanetary disc . A much larger angle suggests a violent interplay with other protoplanets . Given its eccentricity the latter is equally probable until the discrepancy of the Rossiter results is resolved .   It is so distant from its star and eccentric , that it will never enter a secondary eclipse relative to Earth , of the planet behind the star . The star 's true temperature , and so the planet 's surface temperature , can not be measured with accuracy . Due to the high eccentricity the atmosphere of the planet undergoes a factor of 27 variation in stellar flux during each orbit .

neg: Jupiter trojan The Jupiter trojans , commonly called Trojan asteroids or just Trojans , are a large group of asteroids that share the orbit of the planet Jupiter around the Sun . Relative to Jupiter , each Trojan librates around one of Jupiter 's two stable Lagrangian points , , lying 60 ° ahead of the planet in its orbit , and , 60 ° behind . Jupiter trojans are distributed in two elongated , curved regions around these Lagrangian points with an average semi-major axis of about 5.2 AU .   The first Jupiter trojan discovered , 588 Achilles , was spotted in 1906 by German astronomer Max Wolf . A total of 6,178 Jupiter trojans have been found . By convention they are each named after a mythological figure from the Trojan War , hence the name `` Trojan '' . The total number of Jupiter trojans larger than 1 km in diameter is believed to be about , approximately equal to the number of asteroids larger than 1 km in the asteroid belt . Like main-belt asteroids , Jupiter trojans form families .   Jupiter trojans are dark bodies with reddish , featureless spectra . No firm evidence of the presence of water , or any other specific compound on their surface has been obtained , but it is thought that they are coated in tholins , organic polymers formed by the Sun 's radiation . The Jupiter trojans ' densities ( as measured by studying binaries or rotational lightcurves ) vary from 0.8 to 2.5 g · cm − 3 . Jupiter trojans are thought to have been captured into their orbits during the early stages of the Solar System 's formation or slightly later , during the migration of giant planets .   The term `` trojan '' has come to be used more generally to refer to other small Solar System bodies with similar relationships to larger bodies : for example , there are both Mars trojans and Neptune trojans , and Saturn has trojan moons . NASA has announced the discovery of an Earth trojan . The term `` Trojan asteroid '' is normally understood to specifically mean the Jupiter trojans because the first Trojans were discovered near Jupiter 's orbit and Jupiter currently has by far the most known Trojans .

neg: Double planet In astronomy , a double planet ( also binary planet ) is a binary system where both objects are of planetary mass . The term is not recognized by the International Astronomical Union and is therefore not an official classification . At its 2006 General Assembly , the International Astronomical Union considered a proposal that Pluto and Charon be reclassified as a double planet , but the proposal was abandoned in favor of the current definition of planet . In promotional materials advertising the SMART-1 mission and pre-dating the IAU planet definition , the European Space Agency once referred to the Earth -- Moon system as a double planet .   Some binary asteroids with components of roughly equal mass are sometimes informally referred to as double minor planets . These include binary asteroids 69230 Hermes and 90 Antiope and binary Kuiper belt objects ( KBOs ) 79360 Sila -- Nunam and .

neg: Kruger 60 Kruger 60 ( DO Cephei ) is a binary star system located 13.15 light-years from the Sun . These red dwarf stars orbit each other every 44.6 years .   The larger , primary star is designated component A , while the secondary , smaller star is labeled component B. Component A has about 27 % of the Sun 's mass and 35 % of the Sun 's radius . Component B has about 18 % of the Sun 's mass and 24 % of the Sun 's radius . Component B is a flare star and has been given the variable star designation `` DO Cephei '' . It is an irregular flare that typically doubles in brightness and then returns to normal over an 8-minute period .   On average , the two stars are separated by 9.5 AUs , which is roughly the average distance of Saturn from the Sun . However , their eccentric mutual orbit causes their distance to vary between 5.5 AUs at periastron , to 13.5 at apastron .   This system is orbiting through the Milky Way at a distance from the core that varies from 7 -- 9 kpc with an orbital eccentricity of 0.126 -- 0.130 . The closest approach to the Sun will occur in about 88,600 years when this system will come within 1.95 parsecs .

The main catalogue comprises databases of all of the currently confirmed extrasolar planets as well as a database of unconfirmed planet detections . The databases are frequently updated with new data from peer-reviewed publications and conferences .   In their respective pages , the Planets are listed along with their basic properties such as the year of planet 's discovery , mass , radius , orbital period , semi-major axis , eccentricity , inclination , longitude of periastron , time of periastron , maximum time variation , and time of transit , including all error range values .   The individual planet data pages also contain the data on the parent star such as Name , Distance ( pc ) , Spectral Type , Effective Temperature , Apparent Magnitude V , Mass , Radius , Age , Right Asc . Coord. , Decl . Coord . Even when they are known , not all of these figures are listed in the interactive spreadsheet catalog . And many missing planet figures that would simply require the application of Kepler 's third law of motion are left blank . Most notably absent on all pages is the star 's luminosity .   As of June 2011 , the catalog aims to include objects up to 25 Jupiter masses , an increase on the previous inclusion criteria of 20 Jupiter masses .

neg: Phoebe (moon) Phoebe ( -LSB- ˈfiːbi -RSB- ; Greek : Φοίβη Phoíbē ) is an irregular satellite of Saturn with a mean diameter of 213 km . It was discovered by William Henry Pickering on 17 March 1899 from photographic plates that had been taken starting on 16 August 1898 at the Boyden Observatory near Arequipa , Peru , by DeLisle Stewart . It was the first satellite to be discovered photographically .   Phoebe was the first target encountered upon the arrival of the Cassini spacecraft in the Saturn system in 2004 , and is thus unusually well-studied for an irregular satellite of its size . Cassini '' 's trajectory to Saturn and time of arrival were specifically chosen to permit this flyby . After the encounter and its insertion into orbit , Cassini '' did not go much beyond the orbit of Iapetus .   Phoebe is roughly spherical and has a differentiated interior . It was spherical and hot early in its history and was battered out of roundness by repeated impacts . It is believed to be a captured centaur that originated in the Kuiper belt .

neg: Delta Scuti variable A Delta Scuti variable ( sometimes termed dwarf cepheid ) is a variable star which exhibits variations in its luminosity due to both radial and non-radial pulsations of the star 's surface . The variables are important standard candles and have been used to establish the distance to the Large Magellanic Cloud , globular clusters , open clusters , and the Galactic center . The variables follow a period-luminosity relation in certain passbands like other standard candles such as Cepheids . SX Phoenicis variables are generally considered to be a subclass of Delta Scuti variables that contain old stars , and can be found in globular clusters . SX Phe variables also follow a period-luminosity relation . The recently discovered Rapidly oscillating Ap stars are also a subclass of Delta Scuti variables , found on the main sequence . One last sub-class are the pre-main sequence ( PMS ) Delta Scuti variables .   The OGLE and MACHO surveys have detected nearly 3000 Delta Scuti variables in the Large Magellanic Cloud . Typical brightness fluctuations are from 0.003 to 0.9 magnitudes in V over a period of a few hours , although the amplitude and period of the fluctuations can vary greatly . The stars are usually A0 to F5 type giant or main sequence stars . The high-amplitude Delta Scuti variables are also called AI Velorum stars . They are the second most abundant variable source in the Milky Way after white dwarfs .   Delta Scuti stars exhibit both radial and non-radial luminosity pulsations . Non-radial pulsations are when some parts of the surface move inwards and some outward at the same time . Radial pulsations are a special case , where the star expands and contracts around its equilibrium state by altering the radius to maintain its spherical shape . The variations are due to the swelling and shrinking of the star through the Eddington Valve ( or Kappa ) Mechanism . The stars have a helium rich atmosphere . As helium is heated it becomes more ionised , which is more opaque . So at the dimmest part in the cycle the star has highly ionised opaque helium in its atmosphere blocking part of the light from escaping . The energy from this `` blocked light '' causes the helium to heat up , expand , ionise , become more transparent and therefore allow more light through . As more light is let through the star appears brighter and , with the expansion , the helium begins to cool down . Hence the helium contracts and heats up again and the cyclical process continues . Throughout their lifetime Delta Scuti stars exhibit pulsation when they are situated on the classical Cepheid instability strip . They then move across from the main sequence into the giant branch .   The prototype of these sorts of variable stars is Delta Scuti , which exhibits brightness fluctuations from +4.60 to +4.79 in apparent magnitude with a period of 4.65 hours . Other well known Delta Scuti variables include Altair , Denebola ( β Leonis ) and β Cassiopeiae . Vega ( α Lyrae ) is a suspected Delta Scuti variable , but this remains unconfirmed .

neg: Temple of Neptune (Rome) The Temple of Neptune ( Latin : Aedes Neptuni ) was an ancient Roman temple dedicated to Neptune on the Campus Martius near the Circus Flaminius in Rome .   It was built in 220 BC , though the earliest mention of a temple dedicated to Neptune dates to 206 BC , relating to its doors and altar . A new temple was built by consul Gnaeus Domitius Ahenobarbus to commemorate his naval victory at Philippi over Gnaeus Domitius Calvinus - he may have vowed a temple to Neptune on the eve of battle in return for success in it . He began construction sometime after his arrival back in Rome in 32 BC and placed a sculptor by Scopas inside it showing Neptune , Thetis and Achilles surrounded by Nereids , Tritons and sea monsters   A large frieze showing a lustratio of a Roman army and a sea thaisos probably comes from this temple - it is now split between the Louvre in Paris and the Glyptothek in Munich .   The church of San Salvatore in Campo was long thought to be built on the temple 's foundations , but the church is probably too far from the Circus Flaminius for this to be correct .

neg: Epsilon Aquilae Epsilon Aquilae ( ε Aql , ε Aquilae ) is the Bayer designation for a binary star in the equatorial constellation of Aquila . It has an apparent visual magnitude of 4.02 and is visible to the naked eye . Based upon an annual parallax of 21.05 mas , Epsilon Aquilae lies at a distance of approximately 155 ly from Earth . This is a spectroscopic binary system . The pair orbit each other over a period of 1,271 days ( 3.5 years ) with an eccentricity of 0.27 .   It has the traditional name Deneb el Okab , from an Arabic term ذنب العقاب ðanab al-cuqāb meaning `` the tail of the eagle '' , and the Mandarin names Woo and Yuë , derived from and represent the state Wu , an old state was located at the mouth of the Yangtze River , and Yue , an old state in Zhejiang province ( together with 19 Capricorni in Twelve States asterism ) . According to the R.H. Allen 's works , it shares names with ζ Aquilae . Epsilon Aquilae is more precisely called Deneb el Okab Borealis , because is situated to the north of Zeta Aquilae , which can therefore be called Deneb el Okab Australis .   The primary component of this system is an evolved giant star with a stellar classification of K1 III . It has more than double the mass of the Sun and has expanded to ten times the Sun 's radius . It shines with 54 -- fold the Sun 's luminosity , which is being radiated from its outer envelope at an effective temperature of 4,760 K . At this heat , it glows with the orange-hue of a K-type star . This has been designated a barium star , meaning its atmosphere is extremely enriched with barium and other heavy elements . However , this is disputed , with astronomer Andrew McWilliam ( 1990 ) finding normal abundances from an s-process .

neg: Kepler-10c Kepler-10c is an exoplanet orbiting the G-type star Kepler-10 , located around 568 light-years away in Draco . Its discovery was announced by Kepler in May 2011 , although it had been seen as a planetary candidate since January 2011 , when Kepler-10b was discovered . The team confirmed the observation using data from NASA 's Spitzer Space Telescope and a technique called Blender that ruled out most false positives . Kepler-10c was the third transiting planet to be confirmed statistically ( based on probability rather than actual observation ) , after Kepler-9d and Kepler-11g . The Kepler team considers the statistical method that led to the discovery of Kepler-10c as what will be necessary to confirm many planets in Kepler 's field of view .   Kepler-10c orbits its host star every forty-five days at a quarter of the average distance between the Sun and Earth . It has a radius more than double that of Earth , but a higher density , suggesting a mainly rocky composition with around 5 -- 20 % ices by mass . For comparison , the Earth 's oceans represent only 0.02 % of our planet 's mass , with an additional amount potentially a few times this stored in the mantle .
