SUSTAINABLE NATURE
Save my nature, save my village
Why did my Lord leave me?
Sing the children at full moon
Sing worship for homeland
Peace my brother, my earth is fertile
I remember my mother telling me a story
The story of the glory of the old archipelago Tetram karta raharja there
Why is my land vulnerable now
The hills stand naked
Trees and grass don't want to bloom again
Even the birds are ashamed to sing
I want my hills to be green again
Even the grass bushes can't wait
Pray for me to say day by day
And get this heart open
Save my nature, save my village
Why did my Lord leave me?
We'll sing at full moon later
Sing a stanza to you country

LESTARI ALAMKU
Lestari alamku lestari desaku
Dimana Tuhanku menitipkan aku
Nyanyi bocah-bocah dikala purnama
Nyanyikan pujaan untuk nusa
Damai saudaraku suburlah bumiku
Kuingat ibuku dongengkan cerita
Kisah tentang jaya nusantara lama
Tetram karta raharja disana
Mengapa tanahku rawan kini
Bukit-bukitpun telanjang berdiri
Pohon dan rumput enggan bersemi kembali
Burung-burungpun malu bernyanyi
Kuingin bukitku hijau kembali
Semak rumputpun tak sabar menanti
Doakan kuucapkan hari demi hari
Dan dapatkan hati ini lapang diri
Lestari alamku lestari desaku
Dimana Tuhanku menitipkan aku
Kami kan bernyanyi dipurnama nanti
Nyanyikan bait padamu negeri

ABOUT EXOPLANETS
WATER OF LOVE - EXOPLANETS
High and dry in the long hot day
Lost and lonely every way
Got the flats all around me sky up above
Yes I need a little water of love
I've been too long lonely and my heart feels pain
Crying out for some soothing rain
I believe I have taken enough
Yes I need a little water of love
Water of love deep in the ground
But there ain't no water here to be found
Some day baby when the river runs free
It's gonna carry that water of love to me
There's a bird up in a tree sitting up high
Just a-waiting for me to die
If I don't get some water soon
I'll be dead and gone in the afternoon
Water of love deep in the ground
But there ain't no water here to be found
Some day baby when the river runs free
It's gonna carry that water of love to me
Once I had a woman I could call my own
Once I had a woman now my woman she gone
Once there was a river now there's a stone
You know it's evil when you're living alone
Water of love deep in the ground
But there ain't no water here to be found
Some day baby when the river runs free
It's gonna carry that water of love to me
(Carry that) water of love deep in the ground
But there ain't no water here to be found
Some day baby when the river runs free
It's gonna carry that water of love to me

EXOPLANET EXPLORATION
Planets Beyond Our Solar System
We SALUTE all the staffs working in NASA.
To date, they have identified Exoplanets for Habitable Zone in “Quantity and Quality” for future generations.
Mary Voytek, senior scientist and director of NASA’s Astrobiology Program:
“I don’t do (direct) exoplanet research, but I happen to understand it well. We spent all of our research time before we knew about exoplanets understanding our own solar system — how the planets formed. Observing exoplanets allows us to determine whether or not we actually understand those processes, even in our own solar system. In fact, what we’ve seen so far is that most stellar systems don’t look like our solar system. What finding exoplanets does for us is open up a vast exploration area to look for other habitable worlds. And it has upped the likelihood that we are not alone.”
Matthew W. Smith, systems engineer, NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory:
“I search for exoplanets because I want to know whether there’s another Earth-like world out there, and whether life could exist outside our solar system. I think about these questions every time I’m in a dark spot looking up at the night sky.”
EXOPLANETS
An exoplanet is a planet orbiting a star other than the Sun. Of particular interest are planets that may orbit in their star’s habitable zone, the distance from a star where temperatures allow liquid water to persist on a planet’s surface, given a suitable atmosphere. Since water is necessary for life as we know it, its presence is required for worlds to be considered capable of supporting life. Exoplanets can also teach us more about planets in the universe, such as the diversity of planets in the galaxy, how they interact with their host stars and with each other, and how common solar systems like ours really are. Using a wide variety of methods, astronomers have discovered more than 3,700 exoplanets to date, largely thanks to NASA's Kepler/K2 mission. Other NASA missions also play a key role in detecting exoplanets. The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite, which launched in April 2018, will monitor 200,000 of the brightest dwarf stars for transiting exoplanets. Future missions like the James Webb Space Telescope will be able to study these discovered planets in greater detail, helping determine their composition. Researchers in NASA Goddard Space Flight Center's Sellers Exoplanet Environments Collaboration are leveraging work across disciplines to better understand exoplanets. Areas like planet-star interactions, planetary formation, and even study of the Earth itself enable researchers to develop tools to learn more about how exoplanets evolve, and what ingredients are necessary to support life.
Hubble Observes Atmospheres of TRAPPIST-1 Exoplanets in the Habitable Zone
Released on February 5, 2018
Astronomers using the Hubble Space Telescope have conducted the first spectroscopic survey of Earth-sized planets in the TRAPPIST-1 system's habitable zone. Hubble reveals that at least the inner five planets do not seem to contain puffy, hydrogen-rich atmospheres similar to gaseous planets such as Neptune. This means the atmospheres may be more shallow and rich in heavier gases like carbon dioxide, methane, and oxygen.

TRAPPIST-1 Exoplanets and the Habitable Zone
Released on March 22, 2017
TRAPPIST-1 Exoplanets and the Habitable Zone
The TRAPPIST-1 system contains a total of seven planets, all around the size of Earth. Three of them -- TRAPPIST-1e, f and g -- dwell in their star’s so-called “habitable zone.” The habitable zone, or Goldilocks zone, is a band around every star (shown here in green) where astronomers have calculated that temperatures are just right -- not too hot, not too cold -- for liquid water to pool on the surface of an Earth-like world.
While TRAPPIST-1b, c and d are too close to be in the system’s likely habitable zone, and TRAPPIST-1h is too far away, the planets’ discoverers say more optimistic scenarios could allow any or all of the planets to harbor liquid water. In particular, the strikingly small orbits of these worlds make it likely that most, if not all of them, perpetually show the same face to their star, the way our moon always shows the same face to the Earth. This would result in an extreme range of temperatures from the day to night sides, allowing for situations not factored into the traditional habitable zone definition. The illustrations shown for the various planets depict a range of possible scenarios of what they could look like.
The system has been revealed through observations from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope and the ground-based TRAPPIST (TRAnsiting Planets and PlanetesImals Small Telescope) telescope, as well as other ground-based observatories. The system was named for the TRAPPIST telescope.

TRAPPIST-1 Exoplanets Comparison to Our Solar System
All seven planets discovered in orbit around the red dwarf star TRAPPIST-1 could easily fit inside the orbit of Mercury, the innermost planet of our solar system. In fact, they would have room to spare. TRAPPIST-1 also is only a fraction of the size of our sun; it isn’t much larger than Jupiter. So the TRAPPIST-1 system’s proportions look more like Jupiter and its moons than those of our solar system.
The seven planets of TRAPPIST-1 are all Earth-sized and terrestrial, according to research published in 2017 in the journal Nature. TRAPPIST-1 is an ultra-cool dwarf star in the constellation Aquarius, and its planets orbit very close to it.

TRAPPIST-1 Exoplanets Statistics
This chart shows, on the top row, artist concepts of the seven planets of TRAPPIST-1 with their orbital periods, distances from their star, radii and masses as compared to those of Earth. On the bottom row, the same numbers are displayed for the bodies of our inner solar system: Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. The TRAPPIST-1 planets orbit their star extremely closely, with periods ranging from 1.5 to only about 20 days. This is much shorter than the period of Mercury, which orbits our sun in about 88 days.
The artist concepts show what the TRAPPIST-1 planetary system may look like, based on available data about their diameters, masses and distances from the host star.

ABOUT FOODS CRISIS
Foods Crisis in this world is the most terrible things to think about for humanity on earth.
To help someone for a day, give him or her some foods.
To help someone for life, Teach him or her about foods.
A food crisis occurs when rates of hunger and malnutrition rise sharply at local, national, or global levels. This definition distinguishes a food crisis from chronic hunger, although food crises are far more likely among populations already suffering from prolonged hunger and malnutrition.
The reasons for hunger and food insecurity are many and vary from country to country, but generally, it is a result of conflict, poverty, economic shocks such as hyperinflation and rising commodity prices and environmental shocks such as flooding or drought.
Here are some of the possible solutions to food insecurity.
-
Reduce Food Waste. ...
-
Reduce the Risk of Commercialising. ...
-
Improve Existing Infrastructural Programs. ...
-
Improve Trade Policies. ...
-
Promote Diversification. ...
-
Close the Yield Gap. ...
-
Work Towards Defeating Climate Change.
Some steps to end world hunger
-
Put food before trade. ...
-
Curtail corporations – and end impunity. ...
-
Redistribute riches. ...
-
Rights to land, seas – and better pay. ...
-
Smaller, fairer, slower trade. ...
-
Free lunch – or funds to buy it. ...
-
Balance with nature's systems. ...
-
Incentivize good food.
One of the greatest factors in every food crisis is stark and abject poverty. This isn't surprising. With enough money, anyone can ensure they have enough food. But with many developing nations sitting well below the poverty line, the population simply can't afford the food they so desperately need
The dramatic surge in food prices from 2005 to 2008 seriously threatened the world's poor, who struggle to buy food even under normal circumstances, and led to protests and riots in the developing world. The crisis eventually receded, but such surges could recur unless steps are taken to prevent them.
The main cause of hunger worldwide is poverty. Millions of people around the world are simply too poor to be able to buy food. They also lack the resources to grow their own food, such as arable land and the means to harvest, process, and store food.
According to Professor Cribb, shortages of water, land, and energy combined with the increased demand from population and economic growth, will create a global food shortage around 2050.
