S ince the beginnings of humankind people have gazed at the heavens. Before the dawn of history someone noticed that certain celestial bodies moved in orderly and predictable paths, and astronomy—an ancient science— was born. Yet some of science's newest discoveries have been made in this same field, which includes the study of all matter outside Earth's atmosphere. From simple observations of the motions of the sun and the stars as they pass across the sky, to advanced theories of the exotic states of matter in collapsed stars, astronomy has spanned the ages.

icebergs Icebergs come from glaciers, or large masses of slowly moving ice. Because glaciers are made of frozen snow, icebergs contain freshwater, not salt water. In a process called calving, pieces of a glacier break off into the ocean. The pieces, or icebergs, move slowly through the ocean. They can drift for thousands of miles. When they reach waters that are warm enough, they melt away. About 10,000 to 15,000 icebergs form each year in the Arctic. More than 10 times that number form in Antarctica. Only a few hundred icebergs reach shipping routes each year.
