Edwin Hubble - Galaxies exist beyond the Milky Way.
Hubble's arrival at Mount Wilson in 1919 coincided roughly with the completion of the 100-inch Hooker Telescope, then the world's most powerful telescope. Hubble's observations in 1923–1924 with the Hooker Telescope established beyond doubt that the fuzzy "nebulae" seen earlier with less powerful telescopes were not part of our galaxy, as had been thought, but were galaxies themselves, outside the Milky Way. He announced this discovery on December 30, 1924.
Hubble also devised a classification system for galaxies, grouping them according to their co ...

| | | | | Yerkes-Dodson law: Encyclopedia II - Chantek - Orangutan 'personhood' and conservation efforts Miles would prefer freedom for Chantek, even going so far as to advocate personhood for Chantek and other great apes. The term personhood is often ascribed by experts to animals who demonstrate conscious awareness, language, and acculturation. Miles and like-minded advocates seek to expand personhood to great apes, to the extent that - eventually - legal rights of personhood would be conferred under the law.
To further her objectives, Miles created 'Project Chantek', seeking to better understand the mind of an orangutan. Miles hopes h ...

| | | | | Yerkes-Dodson law: Encyclopedia II - Stellar classification - Morgan-Keenan spectral classification This stellar classification is the most commonly used. The common classes are normally listed from hottest to coldest, and are:
* 1 = Sun. Values are averages.
A popular mnemonic for remembering the order is "Oh Be A Fine Girl, Kiss Me" (there are many variants of this mnemonic). This scheme was developed in the 1900s, by Annie J. Cannon and the Harvard College Observatory. The Hertzsprung-Russell diagram relates stellar classification with absolute magnitude, luminosity, and sur ...

| | | | | Yerkes-Dodson law: Encyclopedia II - Intelligence quotient - Practical validity Evidence for the practical validity of IQ comes from examining the correlation between IQ scores and life outcomes.
Research shows that intelligence plays an important role in many valued life outcomes. In addition to academic success, intelligence correlates with job performance (see below), socioeconomic advancement (e.g., level of education, occupation, and income), and "social pathology" (e.g., adult criminality, poverty, unemployment, dependence on welfare, children outside of marriage). Recent work has demonstrated links between ...

| | | | | Yerkes-Dodson law: Encyclopedia II - Eugenics - Eugenics in popular culture Eugenics is a recurrent theme in science fiction (often dystopian) - the novel Brave New World by Aldous Huxley explores the theme in depth, as does the more recent (and up-to-date on the science) movie Gattaca, whose plot turns around genetic testing. Boris Vian (under the pseudonym Vernon Sullivan) takes a more light-hearted approach in his novel Et on tuera tous les affreux.
Other novels touching upon the subject include The Gate to Women's Country by Sheri S. Tepper and That Hideous Strength by C ...

| | | | | Yerkes-Dodson law: Encyclopedia II - Glass - Properties and Uses One of the most obvious characteristics of ordinary glass is that it is transparent to visible light (not all glassy materials are). The transparency is due to an absence of electronic transition states in the range of visible light, and to the fact that such glass is homogeneous on all length scales greater than about a wavelength of visible light (inhomogeneities cause light to be scattered, breaking up any coherent image transmission). Ordinary glass does not allow light at a wavelength of lower than 400 nm, also known as ultraviolet light or UV, to pass. This is due to the addition of c ...

Eugenics - Galton's theory.
Selective breeding was suggested at least as far back as Plato, who believed human reproduction should be controlled by government. He recorded these views in his famous dialogue "The Republic." "The best men must have intercourse with the best women as frequently as possible, and the opposite is true of the very inferior." Plato proposed that selection be performed by a fake lottery so people's feelings wouldn't be hurt by any awareness of selection principles. Other ancient examples include the city of Sparta's mythical practice of leaving weak babies outside of city bor ...

| | | | | Yerkes-Dodson law: Encyclopedia II - Stellar classification - Spectral types for rare stars A number of new spectral types have been taken into use for rare types of stars, as they have been discovered:
W: Up to 70,000 K - Wolf-Rayet stars.
L: 1,500 - 2,000 K - Stars with masses insufficient to run the regular hydrogen fusion process (brown dwarfs). Class L stars contain lithium which is rapidly destroyed in hotter stars.
T: 1,000 K - Cooler brown dwarfs with methane in the spectrum.
C: Carbon stars.
R: Formerly a class on its own representing the carbon star equ ...
