There are also many typos, Adonis... Sad [:(]

1. First reported by Spanish explorers in 1796, the asphalt in California's La was mined (commercial) for many years. commercially I don't understand what it's all about

2. New York City's theatrical district (was concentrated the) Bowery from 1860 to 1875, and around 1900. there's a preposition missing

3. The chemical element chlorine is a corrosive, greenish-yellow gas that has sharp odor and (has) three times heavier than air. you can't say "it has heavy"

4. (Different fourteen ) crops were being grown 8600 years ago.wrong word order

5. Saturn takes almost 30 Earth years to make one trip around the Sun,( during) Jupiter takes about twelve Earth years to complete one solar revolution."during" is a preposition; you need a conjunction here

6. Astronauts receive extensive training to prepare themselves both physically and psychologically( for complexity) and rigor of a space mission there's an article missing
