The oxygen generated by these living beings slowly accumulated in the atmosphere, which changed its composition and created, around 400 million years ago, the conditions necessary for the formation of an ozone layer. This layer is capable of filtering ultraviolet radiation, thus allowing living beings to colonize terrestrial environments outside of water. The enrichment of the atmosphere with oxygen, produced in photosynthesis, allowed this gas to become available and be used by living beings in cellular respiration, which in turn releases the carbon dioxide consumed in photosynthesis into the atmosphere. The Earth's atmosphere has undergone continuous changes in its composition over geological time, responsible for drastic climate changes and mass extinctions. Currently, it is human activities that produce a growing and global impact on the atmosphere with consequences that are still difficult to predict.

Heat is a form of energy that is transferred from one body to another when there is a difference in temperature between them, resulting in thermal equilibrium. The standard unit of measurement for heat is the Joule (J), although it is common to use calories (cal) for measurement. Heat and temperature are distinct concepts, with the first being energy and the second a measure of the agitation of particles in a body. Throughout history, the concept of heat has been debated by philosophers and scientists, from Aristotle to Lavoisier and Lord Kelvin, who established that heat is a form of energy. Heat can be transferred by conduction, convection and radiation, the latter being a propagation of electromagnetic waves that does not require a physical medium to occur, following the Steffan-Boltzmann Law, where the amount of heat emitted is proportional to the fourth power of the temperature of the body (Q α T^4).

Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune are the eight planets in the Solar System, listed in order of increasing distance from the Sun. Known as primary or main planets, they all have enough mass to assume an approximately spherical shape. The planets orbit the Sun in the same direction, in a translational movement. This movement, seen from the Earth's North Pole, follows a counterclockwise direction, called direct direction. During the translation movement, each planet describes an imaginary line around the Sun, called an orbit. The orbits of the planets are:
• Elliptical – that is, they are shaped like ellipses, being practically circular;
• Independent – one from the other;
• Coplanar – as they are all practically on the same plane.

The Earth was an uninhabitable place with no breathable air for hundreds of millions of years after its formation. Over time, however, it developed an atmosphere that was quite different from the one we know today. The primitive atmosphere was composed of methane, ammonia, hydrogen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide and water vapour, but there was no oxygen. Oxygen only appeared in the atmosphere due to its release by living beings, namely through photosynthesis. The first photosynthetic beings were not plants or algae, as they did not yet exist. The first living beings to carry out photosynthesis and release oxygen into the atmosphere were microorganisms similar to today's bacteria that began to appear in the primitive oceans, more than 3,000 million years ago.

In the city of Barcelos, Portugal, there was concern due to an unsolved crime. A Galician suspect, who was passing through on a pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela, was arrested and sentenced to death on the gallows. He swore his innocence and asked to be taken to the judge who sentenced him. The desperate Galician said that his innocence was as certain as the rooster on the judge's table would crow when he was hanged. Everyone laughed at the statement, but no one touched the rooster. Surprisingly, when the Galician was about to be hanged, the rooster on the table crowed. The judge rushed to the gallows and discovered that the Galician was alive due to a poorly tied knot in the rope. He was released, and the case was closed. Years later, the Galician returned to Barcelos and sculpted the Monument of Senhor do Galo in honor of the Virgin Mary and Santiago Maior. The Rooster of Barcelos has become a popular symbol, representing justice and innocence in Portugal.

In the 1930s, a period known as the Golden Age of popular song, samba consolidated itself as Brazil's national music. While it is adopted by white middle-class composers, it also gives deserved recognition to the black people who gave rise to this musical genre. Meaningful interracial partnerships emerge. Getúlio Vargas' decree, allowing radio stations to broadcast advertisements during their programs, marks the beginning of fees and drives the professionalization of the musical class. The innovation of electrical recording opens space for singers with softer voices, such as Mário Reis and Carmen Miranda, to enter the phonographic universe, moving samba away from operatic excesses. Quickly, Reis, Carmen and others became radio idols. The official parade of the samba schools is established, and samba shares the preference of Rio revelers with the march.

At the beginning, there is samba. Or semba. Or whatever the name given to the singing and dancing parties of the Bahians of Cidade Nova. Later, samba evolves into a distinct musical genre. Whether sung, like the one by the group that created "Pelo Telephone", or danced in the front rooms, including Ciata, among other Bahian "aunts" and their descendants. In backyards, Afro cults are celebrated with the tacit connivance of the police. Samba, now as a genre, is born from umbigada, batuque, lundu, polka and several other influences, with its graceful movements and captivating nuances, often intertwining with maxixe, the "excommunicated dance". It is this amaxixado samba, exemplified by artists such as Sinhô, nicknamed the King of Samba, and "Pelo Telephone" himself, which rocked Rio de Janeiro, including during Carnival, in the first three decades of the 20th century.

Astrology, although some defend it as a science, is not recognized as such by the scientific community. It is based on the idea that events on Earth are linked to planetary movements at the time of birth, influencing characteristics and destinies. However, the lack of consensus on how this relationship occurs and the absence of scientific foundations are critical points. Statistical studies, such as those by Michel Gauquelin, are cited by astrologers but remain questionable. The validity of astrology is challenged in cases of identical twins, and the lack of falsifiability in astrological claims is a concern.

In the 50s, the effects of the import of records and the influence of cinema began to manifest themselves in samba from the second half of the 1940s, notably in 1946, when Dick Farney recorded Copacabana. Romantic samba-canção, more melodic and with lyrics generally dedicated to lost or unrequited loves, began to predominate throughout the 1950s. Although traditional samba resisted, it was relegated mainly to carnival, quickly being eclipsed by samba-canção . The latter enters into direct competition with the bolero and the fox in the various dances that proliferate in clubs, dance halls and homes. Figures such as beach singer Dorival Caymmi and waltz composer José Maria de Abreu adhere to this trend, while critics raise objections to the direction taken by samba-canção. Some consider it overly Americanized, especially due to the elaborate orchestral arrangements.

Astrology, despite having ancient connections with astronomy, is now considered a pseudoscience, as it lacks scientific foundation. The lack of statistical evidence for the causal relationship between horoscopes and events in human life leads to the view of the birth chart as a tool based on mystical beliefs, linking more to the individual perspective than to actual events. The practice of astrology also involves misinterpretations of scientific terms, which can promote ignorance and turn the public away from science. Furthermore, concepts such as the zodiac and vibration have no scientific support, and the physical or gravitational influence of distant celestial bodies is practically negligible. Thus, astrological claims cannot be explained scientifically.
