Assignment 14: MLA Citation

What are two key sources that will help answer your research question? Your two sources should be of different types (book, newspaper article, journal article, credible website or other). 

Please cite these two sources in APA or MLA format.

Also please include your research question above the two sources.

Dear Reader,
The two key sources I'm using to answer my research question are : Book sources and Government sources.
I decided to use MLA format because it is a format I am more familiar with.
My research Question is:
What are the mechanics behind the Twin paradox,  what makes  it a Paradox, and is it relevant?

The first citations are my book citations:


1.      Kaku, Michio. Physics of the Impossible: A Scientific Exploration Into the World of Phasers, Force Fields, Teleportation, and Time Travel. New York: Doubleday, 2008. Print.
2.     Hawking, Stephan. A Brief History of Time. New York: Bantam, 1988. Print.

The second citation is a government document from NASA:


Keohane, Jonathan . United States. NASA. The Twin Paradox in Special Relativity. Washington D.C: High Energy Astrophysics Science Archive Research Center, Astrophysics Science Division. Web. <http://imagine.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/ask_astro/answers/971109a.html>.

  1. you have a very interesting topic. The one thing that i noticed will be very easy for you is finding sources. Science seems to be one of those subjects that many people like to re-apply in the modern world. The theory of relativity can be shown in studies from the conception all the way to current studies that are focusing on scientific journals.

    Stephen Hawkins is an incredible thinker and i believe having him as a source will be very helpful in your topic. good luck with your research. You have some great material.
