Uranium is best known for the destructive power of the atom bombs, which ushered in the nuclear era at the end of World War II, but given the effectiveness of nuclear power, nuclear power plants were constructed around the developed world during the second half of the 20th century. While nuclear power plants were previously not an option and thus opened the door to new, more efficient, and more affordable forms of energy for domestic consumption, the use of nuclear energy understandably unnerved people living during the Cold War and amidst ongoing nuclear detonations.

Uranium is best known for the destructive power of the atom bombs, which ushered in the nuclear era at the end of World War II, but given the effectiveness of nuclear power, nuclear power plants were constructed around the developed world during the second half of the 20th century. While nuclear power plants were previously not an option and thus opened the door to new, more efficient, and more affordable forms of energy for domestic consumption, the use of nuclear energy understandably unnerved people living during the Cold War and amidst ongoing nuclear detonations.

Sir Isaac Newton famously complained about action at a distance. How was it possible, he wrote, that gravity, or attraction, operated between objects without physical contact? Well, jump to the twenty-first century, and we have a lot more to say about that. Listeners will enjoy a brilliant, outrageous, playful exploration of quantum physics in everyday life, from a secret interplay of TV plots with us, in electricity, to other speculations, founded in the authors decades of initiations as well as being an original thinker and a scholar.

Sixty-six million years ago an asteroid as large as Mt. Everest hit what is now the Yucatan Peninsula at a speed ten times faster than the fastest rifle bullet. Debris from the impact blew into space, re-entered the atmosphere as a swarm of shooting stars that burned the global forests and grasslands, leaving behind a thin global layer containing rock from the asteroid and from Mexico, and smoke from the fires. This layer marks one of the greatest extinctions in Earth history including not just dinosaurs, but also fish, plankton, ammonites, and plants making up about 75% of the known species.

What happens when particles lose their individuality and merge into a single quantum being? This is the mystery of the Bose–Einstein condensate — a state of matter predicted by Einstein and Bose a century ago, first realized with ultracold atoms in the 1990s, and later extended to photons, exciton–polaritons, and other exotic systems. In this book, Boris Kriger guides the listener through the history of this extraordinary discovery — from a letter written in Calcutta to Einstein, to the Nobel-winning experiments that cooled atoms to the edge of absolute zero.

The Magellanic Clouds drift across the southern sky like luminous islands—near enough to be seen with the naked eye, yet vast enough to hold billions of stars. For millennia they have been woven into the stories of Indigenous peoples, guiding navigators across oceans and inspiring myths of creation. For modern science, they are living laboratories, revealing how galaxies are born, shaped, and ultimately transformed.

Die Zeit. Wir teilen sie ein und achten auf sie, wir nehmen sie uns und schenken sie anderen. Doch sie rinnt uns auch durch die Finger oder zieht sich wie Kaugummi. Jeden Tag versuchen wir aufs Neue die Zeit zu beherrschen – und bekommen sie trotzdem nie richtig zu fassen. Was ist da also los in der vierten Dimension? Dieses Hörbuch – das erste des Teams vom Audible-Podcast „Sag mal, du als Physiker" – geht dem Wesen der Zeit auf den Grund. Was ist das genau, was da verrinnt? Und können wir die Zeit beschleunigen oder verlangsamen? Vielleicht sogar umdrehen oder uns mehr davon verschaffen?

The Man Who Mastered Gravity is an intimate profile of Thomas Townsend Brown, a little-known scientist whose unorthodox ideas about electricity and gravity have made him the subject of decades of speculation and intrigue. Brown developed his novel concepts while serving in the U.S. Navy through the 1930s. In the first months of World War II he was abruptly discharged–despite his expertise in radio, radar, and mine sweeping.
