1. When you look into the night sky, you are looking back in time The stars we see in the night sky are very far away from us, so far the star light we see has taken a long time to travel across space to reach our eyes. This means whenever we look out into the night and gaze at stars we are actually experiencing how they looked in the past. For example, the bright star Vega is relatively close to us at 25 light-years away, so the light we see left the star 25 years ago; while Betelgeuse (pictured) in the constellation of Orion is 640 light-years away, so the light left the star around 1370, during the time of the Hundred Years’ War between England and France. Other stars we see are further away still, so we are seeing them much deeper in their past. 2. The Hubble telescope allows us to look back billions of years into the past The Hubble Telescope enables us to look towards very distant objects in the universe. Thanks to this remarkable piece of engineering NASA has been ab...

Introduction Stephen Toulmin, an English philosopher, developed a practical approach to analyzing the logic of everyday arguments. His approach involves identifying and separating the various components of an argument into a specific order so that they may be appraised. The model and specific vocabulary that Toulmin employs will be elaborated as required. Claims In its most simple form an argument consists of a claim (C) , which is the conclusion to be established by the argument. We have already seen that arguments consisting of only a claim or conclusion are Level 1 arguments. Examples would include: · Vitamins are good for you. · Breast self-examination saves lives. · Mrs. Smith should take hydrochlorothiazide. These claims, on their own, lack any reasoned support to determine whether they are true or false despite the fact that they may be true or false. More is required to establish this. Data As arguments are intended to persuade you on the truth or probability of some matte...
