Science Cosmology

Book 1: is an inquiry and review of humanity's continual effort to gain hold of its legacy which was willed by God and passed on by many great souls. It asks many questions and gives suggestive answers to promote thought. It is like having a conversation with the author. What good is a mind if we don't use it?

Icy, rocky, sometimes dusty, always mysterious – comets and asteroids are among the Solar System's very oldest inhabitants, formed within a swirling cloud of gas and dust in the area of space that eventually hosted the Sun and its planets. Locked within each of these extra-terrestrial objects is the 4.6-billion-year wisdom of Solar System events, and by studying them at close quarters using spacecraft we can coerce them into revealing their closely-guarded secrets. This offers us the chance to answer some fundamental questions about our planet and its inhabitants.

Rope Hypothesis and Thread Theory is based on Bill Gaede's Rope Hypothesis. We apply the rope model to questions such as, what is gravity, light, electricity, and magnetism? What is thermodynamics? What is the difference between light and sound? What is plasma? How do batteries, antennas, and cathode ray tubes work? What is the difference between fundamental and composite objects? Does size scale make a difference when it comes to motion, friction, bending, stretching, and tension?

In Astronomy’s Limitless Journey, astrophysicist Günther Hasinger takes the reader on a journey to the far reaches of the universe?an exciting time travel that begins with the incredibly hot fireball of the Big Bang roughly 13.8 billion years ago and ends in distant eons with its cold, dark demise. In between lie the times in which extensive structures, galaxies, stars, and planets form. As the field of astrophysics and cosmology experiences a “golden age” due to larger telescopes, faster computers, and more sophisticated algorithms, fundamental changes are taking place in our understanding of space and time and of the origin and future of our universe. Hasinger thoroughly explains these fascinating revelations and describes the methods utilized in modern astrophysics.

Mapping the Heavens provides a tour of the "greatest hits" of cosmological discoveries - the ideas that reshaped our universe over the past century. The cosmos, once understood as a stagnant place filled with the ordinary, is now a universe that is expanding at an accelerating pace, propelled by dark energy and structured by dark matter. Priyamvada Natarajan, our guide to these ideas, is at the forefront of the research - an astrophysicist who literally creates maps of invisible matter in the universe.

This is an indispensable guide to physics that offers readers an overview of the most popular physics topics written in an accessible, irreverent, and engaging manner while still maintaining a tone of wry skepticism. Even the novice will be able to follow along, as the topics are addressed using plain English and (almost) no equations. Veterans of popular physics will also find their nagging questions addressed, like whether the universe can expand faster than light.

Un cibo non troppo caldo e non troppo freddo, un letto non troppo morbido e non troppo duro: ecco cosa vuole la giovane protagonista della fiaba "Riccioli d'oro e i tre orsi", qualcosa di "proprio giusto". Sembra bizzarro, eppure l'astrobiologia usa lo stesso criterio nella ricerca di possibili forme di vita nello spazio. Tanto che si chiama "Fascia Riccioli d'oro" la zona abitabile di un sistema stellare, lo spazio in cui si trovano i pianeti che possiedono le caratteristiche necessarie allo sviluppo della vita: presenza di acqua, temperature non eccessivamente calde o fredde.

Keine Kultur kann existieren ohne eine Erzählung von den Ursprüngen. Der italienische Teilchenphysiker und Bestsellerautor Guido Tonelli erzählt in "Genesis" die große Geschichte von der Entstehung unseres Universums, angefangen vom Big Bang und den allerersten Augenblicken danach bis zu unserem Sonnensystem. Sein Buch ist der meisterhafte Versuch, aus dem Wissen der heutigen Astrophysik heraus eine Erzählung von den Ursprüngen zu entwickeln, die nie die Grenzen der Wissenschaft verlässt, sich aber an den großen Mythen messen lassen kann.

Einstein's theory of gravity, as beautiful as it is, seems to be in direct contradiction with another theory he helped create: quantum mechanics. From the explosions of neutron stars and the collisions of black holes to the modern scientific process as a means to seek truth and understanding in the cosmos, this audiobook takes the listener on a journey of learning and discovery that has been 100 years in the making.

Is there such a thing as a fundamental reality, something which was around before our universe came into existence and which will still remain when all matter, time, and space itself ultimately disappear? Something fundamental which, in turn, can make space and time and matter arise from seemingly nothing? Under most cosmological and physical models, the last known remnants of reality are the disembodied laws of mathematics - beyond which it is extremely difficult to probe further.

Het laatste boek van professor Stephen Hawking. Hoe is alles begonnen? Is er intelligent leven elders in het heelal? Kunnen we de toekomst voorspellen? Bestaat er een God? Wat zit er in een zwart gat? Zijn tijdreizen mogelijk? Zullen we overleven op aarde? Moeten we de ruimte koloniseren? Zal kunstmatige intelligentie slimmer worden dan wij? Hoe geven wij de toekomst vorm? De wereldberoemde wetenschapper en bestsellerauteur Stephen Hawking laat ons zijn laatste ideeën over de grootste vragen van het universum na in dit briljante postuum uitgegeven werk.

Evolution and creation are in a spiritual battle. Evolution scientists ignore, dismiss, and unequivocally reject creation out of hand - "It is not science or fact as evolution is," they say. However, Nullifying God shows that random Darwinian evolution does not have the direct evidence required to support the claim. Not only that, but it provides contrary evidence that evolution is biologically impossible.

Big History, the field that studies the entire known past of our universe to give context to human existence, has so far been the domain of historians. Geologist Walter Alvarez - best known for his Impact Theory explaining dinosaur extinction - makes a compelling case for a new, science-first approach to Big History.

The universe should be fun, and you’re about to discover an audiobook that understands that, weaving humor and wit into every minute so that you not only understand what you’re listening to, but enjoy the whole process.

Quanti anni ha la vita? Qual è il destino delle stelle? Se l'atomo è fatto di vuoto, che cosa sostiene il mondo? Perché solo i nostri neuroni, tra quelli di tutte le specie, sono in grado di descrivere i neutrini? Edoardo Boncinelli e Antonio Ereditato ci raccontano l'avventura dell'Universo: dall'esplosione iniziale al costituirsi dell'architettura delle galassie, dal principio dello spaziotempo all'evoluzione dei sapiens e al sorgere della coscienza umana. Tornano a istanti che vanno da 10-30 a 10-20 secondi dopo il Big Bang.

The marvelous complexity of the universe emerges from several deep laws and a handful of fundamental constants that fix its shape, scale, and destiny. Where did these laws and these constants come from? And why are the laws so fruitful when written in the language of mathematics? Author Peter Atkins considers the minimum effort needed to equip the universe with its laws and its constants. He explores the origin of the conservation of energy, of electromagnetism, of classical and quantum mechanics, and of thermodynamics, showing how all these laws spring from deep symmetries.

Ragnarok. Armageddon. Doomsday. Since the dawn of time, man has wondered how the world would end. In The Last Three Minutes, Paul Davies reveals the latest theories. Voiced in clear language that makes the cutting-edge science of quarks, neutrinos, wormholes, and metaverses accessible to the layman, The Last Three Minutes treats listeners to a wide range of conjectures about the ultimate fate of the universe.

The galaxy, the multiverse, and the history of astronomy are explored in this engaging compilation of cosmological "tales" by multiple award-winning science writer Marcia Bartusiak. In 32 concise and engrossing essays, the author provides a deeper understanding of the nature of the universe and those who strive to uncover its mysteries. Bartusiak shares the back stories for many momentous astronomical discoveries, including the contributions of such pioneers as Beatrice Tinsley and her groundbreaking research in galactic evolution.

"La sorpresa viene da lontano. Molto, molto lontano. Dalle sorgenti delle galassie, dalle fucine delle stelle, fonti di un'energia inesausta. Là dove abbiamo cominciato a guardare e ormai non possiamo più smettere." La materia e l'energia oscura sono il grande rompicapo della fisica del XXI secolo. E finché rimarranno un enigma, dell'universo conosceremo solo una piccolissima porzione e nulla sapremo della sua origine e del suo inevitabile destino.

夜空を彩る満天の星や、皆既日食・彗星などの天体ショー。古来より人類は宇宙の美しさに魅せられてきた。しかし宇宙の美しさは、目に見えるところだけにあるのではない。これまで宇宙にまつわる現象は、
