Position
According to modern atomic theory it is nearly impossible to determine an electrons exact?
According to modern atomic theory, it is nearly impossible to determine an electron's exact position and momentum simultaneously. This is known as the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, which states that the more precisely one property is measured, the less precisely the other can be known.
The first full scale oceanographic research expedition was conducted by?
The first full-scale oceanographic research expedition was conducted by the Royal Society of London in 1872 aboard the HMS Challenger. This expedition marked the beginning of modern oceanography and laid the foundation for future research in marine sciences.

How did sailors use the constellations long ago?
Sailors used constellations as a navigational aid to determine their position at sea. By observing the position of specific constellations relative to the horizon, they could establish their direction and make adjustments to stay on course. This practice, known as celestial navigation, helped sailors navigate the open oceans before the invention of modern navigational tools.
