What does plate tectonic theory mean
Plate tectonics is the theory that Earth's outer shell is divided into several plates that glide over the mantle, the rocky inner layer above the core. The plates act like a hard and rigid shell compared to Earth's mantle.

The human foot and ankle contains 26 bones. One quarter of all the bones in the human body are in the feet.
Every thing looks us-side down?

It is beneficial in the upper atmosphere where it belongs.
Need cd for the astrolon telescope 402 power
I have the 402 power astrolon telescope (item 36755), with the wooden tripod. I have the manual and the original CD (there's probably a more updated version--I've had this for approx. 10 yrs.). As for the manual, if you haven't found one, I'll make a copy and send it to you (it's only 6 small pages). Also, their customer service number is
