Introduction With every moment that passed, dense smoke choked the air as the wildfire's flames rose higher and higher. What once refreshed our souls with purity became a suffocating enemy, slaughtering our lungs and destroying our health. These blazing flames ate up everything standing in their way, robbing every living thing of its soul and transforming every entity into suffocating ashes. The flames of the wildfire were vicious monsters, moving forward into the forests, moving to slaughter trees and animals, only stopping before their greatest enemy; rivers. People were speechless in front of this devastating natural disaster that moved as though it owned the world, turning what we breath for life into a terrible chronic disease that invades lungs and murders public health. What are Wildfires? Bushfires, brush fires, or forest fires, all those are names used to describe wildfires , large, uncontrolled, destructive natural disasters that not only affect forests and grasslands bu

Introduction For centuries, music has been life, accompanying man through good and bad, evolving over the years from beats to symphonies. It has been translating our souls’ deepest desires, our minds’ complicated thoughts, and hearts’ intricate emotions. Humans have always resorted to music as an escape from reality to soothe their aching souls. But what is the truth behind such joy that seeps into our minds once we listen to music? This question is what will be discussed in the following paper; the psychology of music. How our Brain Perceives Music As we all know, music, or any other sound in general, enters through our ear as sound waves which are then converted into electrical impulses that can be interpreted by the brain. This process takes place in three stages involving the pinna, ossicles, and cochlea (parts of our outer, middle, and inner ear respectively). Stage 1: The pinna channels the sound waves down the ear canal to the eardrum which in response to those incoming sound

  In this era of technological advancements and scientific discoveries, fostering Students interest in STEM is crucial. And one effective way to accomplish this is by establishing a STEM Club in your school. In this blog post, We will guide you through the process of building a STEM Club in your school and highlight the resources and support EstheraSTEM (a leading non-profit organization dedicated to promoting STEM Education) offer to help you. Getting Started The first step in building a STEM Club is to lay a strong foundation for the driving force behind the club which include passionate individuals (students, teachers and mentors). Gaining support from teachers, parents and school administrators can help make the Club a reality. Defining the Club Vision and Goals Every STEM Club needs a clear vision and goal that defines the purpose of the Club whether it was established to foster curiosity, encourage innovation or promote career exploration in STEM Fields. Planning Engaging Activit

Astrophysics, the scientific study of the universe offer the pathway for us to understand and explore space and unravel mysteries of the universe (a vast place full of galaxies, stars, and planets). Astrophysics provides insights into the fundamental forces and phenomena that shapes our cosmic surrounding. In this blog post, We will embark on a journey of exploration, delve into the World of Astrophysics and uncover incredible discoveries and advancement in the Field. 1. Star A star is an astronomical object comprising a luminous spheroid of plasma held together by self-gravity. It  is a large ball of burning gas in space. Stars appear to us as small points of light in the sky on clear nights. •The Nearest Star to Earth is the Sun. 2. Cosmic Mysteries The mysteries of the cosmos continue to captivate and challenge scientists worldwide. From the enigmatic nature of dark matter and dark energy to the search for extraterrestrial life, each cosmic mystery holds the potential to reshape our

Introduction Plastic becoming the new ‘fish’ swimming in our seas, rivers the new garbage dumps, animals choking to death on bottles, and innocent tortoises tangled up in bags; this is what humanity has done to our breathtaking ocean; genocide of the beautiful marine life we have been granted. 75 to 199 million tons of plastic waste are currently in our oceans, with a further 33 billion pounds of plastic entering the marine environment every single year. Can you imagine how many innocent animals mistake plastic for food? Death has wrapped its claws around 100 million oceanic animals each year from plastic waste alone and this number keeps increasing. Not to mention the 100,000 others that die after getting entangled in plastic yearly. That is why every individual, company, and organization must work toward a healthier, sustainable environment. The Heart of the Problem: Plastic But to address this critical issue, the essence of plastic must be firstly understood. Plastic is a polym

Climate change is a Global issue that affects every living being on the Planet. In this blog post, We will explore the effects of Climate Change on different ecosystems and the species that inhabit them.
