New Planet Found Called: Planet 9 & New For Planet Colonization


The new planet is within our solar system.  It's called Planet 9.  It's much bigger than the earth.  It goes around the sun every 15,000 years.  We just happened to spot it with probes in deep space.



This map is now out of date because of the discovery of Planet 9 and other planets.  They need to send a whole bunch of probes to Planet 9 and send a manned mission to Planet 9.


Planet 9 is extremely much bigger than Earth and other planets by comparison.  In fact, Planet 9 is classified as 10 times bigger than Earth and bigger than Jupiter.  It is really far away.  Since it is still within our solar system, we can send both robots to Planet 9, probes to Planet 9 and manned missions to Planet 9.  Many future missions to Planet 9 will collect information, and figure out how to live on Planet 9 and also inhabit it. 


Planet 9 is a planet where we can put more stuff like things we want to keep secret.  There might be places for the general public to live on Planet 9.  These are one of the many examples that the government has planned for Planet 9.  The reason that it is called Planet 9 is because it's the ninth planet, which is a far bigger sequel to Earth and is more inhabitable than Earth.  We will wear space suits on Planet 9 and we will have an endless supply of power on Planet 9 for our energy.  There will be lots of technology on Planet 9 and we will even use 3 D printing on Planet 9.  There will be lots of experiments done on Planet 9.

More Research Goes Into Epilepsy

There are many forms of epilepsy.  Some forms of epilepsy are caused by accidents, some are hereditary and some occur from brain injury and disease.  Epilepsy is not contagious and you can't swallow your tongue during a seizure!


Most people with epilepsy have just one kind of seizure.  Seizures are episodic which means that they come and go.  They are often unpredictable.  Absence seizures used to be called petit mal seizures, but now are called absence seizures.  This is the kind I have.  For some unknown reason they have changed the name of this kind of seizure.  


Absence seizures can be either simple or complex.  Simple ones last about 10 seconds and complex ones last up to 20 seconds and usually involve movement.  It looks like someone is staring off into space, moving their lips sometimes, or moving their hands.  No first aid is needed for this kind of epileptic seizure.  The person can hear and think clearly afterwards.  Some people have seizures every once in a while or up to 100 times a day.


Most forms of seizures cannot be cured using surgery because of the complexity of the brain.  The only form of epilepsy that can be cured using surgery is when it involves certain portions of the brain, such as possibly the frontal lobe or a portion of the brain that you don't really need.  For most people with epilepsy, surgery is out of the question.  Until modern surgery becomes more advanced, medicine and chemicals are the answer.  



Most epilepsy medicine is taken with water or other form of liquid.  There are pill forms of medicine and liquid forms of medicine...and a kind you can put in an IV.  


As I mentioned before, some forms of epilepsy are genetic.  This is the picture of the DNA double helix, which is how they discovered the fact that some forms of epilepsy are inherited, but not all forms of epilepsy are inherited.  In the future they may combine medicine on a genetic level for people with epilepsy.  There are many possible future treatments for epilepsy, just like there are many causes of epilepsy.  If I could, I would gladly get rid of my epilepsy because it's the only disability I have that I find distracting.  They need to put more research into epilepsy, because epilepsy is more  distracting than reading and learning disabilities because it's hard to adapt to life with epilepsy.
