© 2008 Program ENERGY Program ENERGY is funded by SEPA grant number 5R25RR What is Diversity? It is the condition of being different or having differences. Some might refer to diversity as variety!! An opposite of diversity is similarity! Interestingly, in our universe, many things that exhibit diversity also have similarities!! Many things that are similar also have many differences!

© 2008 Program ENERGY Program ENERGY is funded by SEPA grant number 5R25RR Many things in the universe are very much alike and they are also very different!

© 2008 Program ENERGY Program ENERGY is funded by SEPA grant number 5R25RR What we see as the Milky Way is actually the galaxy in which we live!

© 2008 Program ENERGY Program ENERGY is funded by SEPA grant number 5R25RR Stars that are different from, yet similar to, our sun!

© 2008 Program ENERGY Program ENERGY is funded by SEPA grant number 5R25RR In orbit around our Sun, there is a collection of planets, all of which have similarities, and differences!

© 2008 Program ENERGY Program ENERGY is funded by SEPA grant number 5R25RR Among the planets of our solar system, there is one special planet, the Earth. The earth is special! It is the only planet that we know to support life. It is also our home.

© 2008 Program ENERGY Program ENERGY is funded by SEPA grant number 5R25RR These foods might look different on the outside, but they are very similar on the inside. All these foods contain the same nutrients, like vitamins and minerals, that keep you healthy. What would our world be like if we were all exactly the same?
