Overeating (or over-eating) is eating food more than the body needs. There is a relationship between the energy that an organism uses and the amount eaten. Eating more leads to weight gaining and often obesity. It may be regarded as an eating disorder.

One consequence of overeating is weight gain, and excess weight may cause blood pressure to rise. In turn this makes illness and even death more likely.

The problem is very difficult to reverse: losing weight is often attempted, but rarely succeeds. Weight lost is usually rapidly replaced. Diets are famously unsuccessful. Obesity is the end product of overeating.

Some difficult facts are known. Poorer families tend to eat worse food than better-off families. Children learn from the experiences in their families. Once established, habits are hard to break. In 2013, several medical societies, including the American Medical Association and the American Heart Association, classified obesity as a disease.

Martelli's cat (Felis lunensis) is a small wild cat in the Felinae subfamily. It used to live in Europe.  It is extinct now.  That means there are no Martelli's cats alive now.

Martelli's cat first lived about 12 million years ago.  This was during the Pliocene era.  It was bigger than most wildcats.  It hunted birds and small mammals.

Some scientists think that the modern wildcat (Felis silvestris) evolved from Martelli's cat.

Hanauma Bay is a tuff cone in Honolulu, Hawaii. It sits near another volcano called Koko Crater.

It was created 32,000 years ago as a vent of the Koʻolau Volcano. It is a popular tourist attraction due to the beach in its crater and at one point had 3 million visitors a year. The bay holds many types of marine wildlife.

The origin of the name “Hanauma” is not well known. The “hana” part means “bay” while the meaning behind “uma” is debated.

Cassegrain telescopes are reflector telescopes that use two curved mirrors to make an image. The big primary mirror gathers and concentrates light. The small secondary mirror then reflects the light through the back of the mirror. The secondary mirror is also curved so that it the light path is longer than the tube.

A "true Cassegrain" uses a primary mirror with a parabola-shaped curve, and a secondary mirror with a hyperbola-shaped curve. This is hard to make. Sphere-shaped curves are easier to make, but the image would be blurry. Catadioptric (lens and mirror) telescopes fix this by putting a special lens in front of the telescope.

Cassegrains are useful both as amateur telescopes which normal people can buy, and for scientists for serious astronomy work.

Types of Cassegrain telescopes 
Lots of telescopes which are similar to cassegrains have been invented. Here are a few.
Schmidt-Cassegrain (SCT): The primary mirror has a spherical curve. This is corrected by a thin corrector lens in front.
 Maksutov-Cassegrain (Mak): The primary and secondary mirrors both have spherical curves. This time a special "meniscus" type lens is used to correct it. Sometimes the secondary mirror is just a shiny spot on the meniscus lens. This is cheaper to make than an SCT because all of the lenses and mirrors have spherical curves.
 Ritchey-Chrétien (RCT): Both mirrors have hyperbola-shaped curves. This makes the stars sharp points even at the edge of the view. Most big telescopes made by scientists are RCTs, including the Hubble Space Telescope.
 Dall-Kirkham (DK): The primary mirror is a parabola-shaped curve. The secondary is a spherical-shaped curve. It's easier to make than an RCT, but the stars at the edge are blurry. Lenses can be put at the back of the telescope to fix the blurry stars. That would be a Corrected Dall-Kirkham (CDK)
Schiefspeigler (Chief): The mirrors are tilted so that the secondary mirror is not in front of the primary mirror. There's also no hole in the back of the primary. This gives brighter images, but there's also distortion from tilting the mirrors.

A Gregorian telescope was the first telescope to be designed that uses mirrors instead of lenses. It was invented by the English astronomer John Gregory. Even though it was designed in 1663, it wasn't the first reflecting telescope to be built. Newton's telescope, a different design, was built in 1668. The Gregorian telescope was first built in 1673 by Robert Hooke.

The telescope uses two curved mirrors. The large primary gathers light, and the small secondary reflects the light out the back of the primary mirror. Both mirrors are concave (bowl-shaped).

It is very similar to the Cassegrain telescope, which uses a large concave primary mirror and a small convex secondary mirror.

Telescopes
A Herschelian telescope was invented in the 1780s by William Herschel. It is similar to a Newtonian telescope, except using only one mirror. 

In the 1780s, telescopes used metal mirrors which were not very reflective. Each mirror would absorb light and make the image dimmer. So Herschel invented a telescope with a tilted mirror that put the eyepiece in the front.

When mirrors became more reflective, Herschelian telescopes stopped being useful.
