Problem: Article: If you earn your Ph.D in astronomy, you can qualify for research positions at a university. These positions allow you to gain work experience and focus on your area of expertise in astronomy. You can also try to turn your research position into a full time employment position. You may need to move based on where you land a research position. You will need to be flexible and adaptable, willing to move as needed. This is a good option if you want to go into academia and become a professor of astronomy. Become a professor of astronomy at the undergraduate or graduate level. Look for open positions at your local university or universities out of state. You will need at least a master's degree or a Ph.D in astronomy to qualify to teach. Another option is to apply to work at an observatory as the resident astronomer. Working at an observatory allows you to interact with the public. You can also curate exhibits on astronomy and write books about specific areas of astronomy as part of your job. Look for local observatories in your area. You can also search for observatories in places you may want to live. Some people who study to be an astronomer end up working in these areas, especially if they do not want to work in academia. These positions may also be ideal if you'd prefer to work directly with other astronomers and scientists on projects. Make sure you emphasize your schooling, your work experience, and your particular field of study when applying for these positions. You may also note how you would contribute to the aerospace or computer science industry as an employee. Working for a space agency may be ideal if you'd like to collaborate with other astronomers and scientists on the study of the universe. The biggest space agency in the United States is NASA. You may apply for positions at NASA, focusing on your area of expertise in astronomy. You should focus on your passion for astronomy as well as your degrees and your high marks. You should also note how you would make a positive contribution to NASA as an astronomer.
Summary: Look for a postdoctoral fellowship to be a competitive job candidate. Get a teaching position at a university. Apply for open positions at an observatory. Look for positions in the aerospace or computer science industry. Apply for positions at a space agency.

Problem: Article: Dry heat is a process used on oils, petroleum, and powders. Also, any items that are sensitive to moisture use dry heat. Dry heat is used to slowly burn the microorganisms away and is typically done in an oven. There are two types of dry heat, a static-air type and a forced air type. The static air is a much slower process. It takes longer to raise the temperature of the air in the chamber to sterilization levels because it has coils that heat up. The forced air process uses a motor that circulates the air inside the oven. The heats range from 300 degrees Fahrenheit for 150 minutes or longer to 340 degrees Fahrenheit for an hour. Similar to autoclaving, you begin the dry heat method by washing your hands and applying non-sterile gloves. Next, wash instruments to remove any debris or matter that might be left behind. This ensures that the items that get put into the ovens are as clean as possible and will not have non-sterile materials left behind on them. Just like with autoclaving, the medical tools are placed into bags during the sterilization process. Place the cleaned instruments into sterilization pouches. Seal up each pouch so it is airtight. This is important because wet or damaged packages will not be sterilized during the process. You need to make sure the bags have temperature sensitive tape or an indicator strip. If they don't, you should add one. The tape helps you ensure the products are sterilized by reaching the temperature necessary for the sterilization. Once you have all the tools in pouches, you need to load the pouches into the dry heat oven. Do not overload the oven because the tools will not get sterilized correctly. Once the pouches are loaded, start the cycle. The sterilization process will not start until the chamber is at the right temperature. Follow manufacturer's guidelines for loading the ovens. After the cycle is complete, remove the instruments. Check the indicator strips to make sure the items were sterilized. Take the tools and store them in the safe, clean, dry place in order to protect them from dust and dirt.
Summary:
Learn the process. Start the process. Load the bags. Sterilize the tools.
