Science Fiction Physics

"Il viaggio di Lucio Eurisko" è un romanzo che scorre via leggero, trasmettendo all'ascoltatore una visione di vita più vera e consapevole. Continue domande inducono a ragionare con la propria testa su fatti scientifici e religiosi che sono stati alterati. L'ascoltatore comprenderà perché il DNA palesa l'esistenza di un progettista creatore, o perché l'apparato LAD del nostro cervello rivela che non esiste l'evoluzione che crea nuove specie o perché la meiosi cellulare è l'evidente prova che siamo stati creati, ma capirà anche com'è organizzata la lobby dei sacerdoti gay e pedofili.

Gabe Fuentes is in a race against time—and aliens—in this intergalactic sequel to Ambassador, which Booklist called “an exciting sci-fi adventure, perceptively exploring what it means to be alien,” from National Book Award winner William Alexander. When we last left Earth’s Ambassador...

Adrian faces threats he is aware of; weak but numerous enemies that no one else would even think about challenging. He is not at all concerned because of a simple fact of life: if you know what's coming, the risk can be mitigated or avoided in its entirety. With his companions, new and old, along with the energy windfall from the hoppers, Adrian has the purchasing power and the fighting strength to make like light work of monsters that would otherwise be problematic.

DESPRE AUDIOBOOK. RICHARD DAWKINS explică felul în care natura și oamenii au învăţat să învingă forţa gravitaţiei și să se înalţe în zbor: de la legendarul Icar la splendida specie Argentavis magnificens, din păcate dispărută, de la fraţii Wright și Boeing 747 la libelula Tinkerbella nana și șoimul-călător. Dar cartea e în același timp despre avântul minţii, despre evadarea din banal, prin știinţă și imaginaţie. Cu ilustraţiile ei superbe și fascinante, reprezintă o colaborare unică între unul dintre cei mai mari oameni de știinţă și o artistă talentată. DESPRE AUTOR.

The afterlife doesn't come with a manual. In fact, Hart and Bowler (two ordinary but dead men) have had to work out the rules of their new existence for themselves. It's that fact (along with being unable to leave the boundaries of their city center, unable to communicate with the other lost souls, unable to rest in case The Beast catches up with them) that makes getting out of their situation a priority. But Hart and Bowler don't know why they're there in the first place; if they ever want to leave, they will have to find all the answers to be able to understand the physics of the dead.

Das Multiversum, die Leere, die Existenz selbst. Noch nie stand mehr auf dem Spiel, und es liegt an den drei Freunden, den Tag zu retten. Ihre Reise in die Leere wird sich als ebenso schädlich wie lukrativ erweisen. Ihre Hoffnung? So viel Macht zu erhalten, dass sie das Ranking selbst brechen können. Aber was sie nicht bedacht haben, ist die Wirkung, welche die absolute und totale Verzweiflung der Leere auf sie haben wird.

Der führende Astrophysiker Liam Jackson nimmt an einem Wissenschaftler-Austauschprogramm in Deutschland teil, als ihm ein Curveball von universellem Ausmaß zugeworfen wird. Flugzeuge fallen vom Himmel, Autos explodieren und seltsame Partikel regnen vom Himmel herab, während Monster aus dem Nichts auftauchen.

When an overworked team of government physicists unwittingly invites something catastrophic into the world, rising young New York lawyer Cal Griffin is forced into a strange new role in a world of nightmare and wonder.

When the Alpha Event struck Earth, the rules of reality itself were rewritten. Millions died as the world was transformed into a lethal realm of magic and monsters. Yet somehow, an overweight, out-of-shape construction supervisor managed not just to survive the apocalypse, but inadvertently became an reluctant hero after saving thousands from one of the many monsters spawned by the mana storm.

Das dritte Buch der Physik der Apokalypse-Reihe beschäftigt sich endlich mit dem Zinnoberroten Drachen. Ein epischer Abschluss von Liams schlimmstem Feind und eine Öffnung zu einer Welt, die viel größer ist, als er sich je vorgestellt hat.

Die USAG wurde zerstört und Liam hat es gerade noch so geschafft, zu überleben. Er hat keine Zeit zu verlieren und plant seine Rache. Aber zuerst muss er eine Operationsbasis errichten. Im Schloss Neuschwanstein.

Zuerst der Zinnoberrote Drache.Dann das Multiversum! Nach der Apokalypse kämpft die Menschheit um ihr Überleben in einer Welt, in der mysteriöse Partikel entstanden sind. Um sich auf den Moment vorzubereiten, in dem die Erde nicht mehr geschützt ist und der Planet für die Invasion einer außerirdischen Spezies offen steht, haben Liam und seine Gefährten das Leuchtfeuer, ihre Zufluchtsstätte, in eine Festung verwandelt.

David A. Grandy's book moves from the scientific to the existential, from Einstein to Merleau-Ponty, from light as a phenomenon to light as that which is constitutive of reality. To measure the speed of light is to measure something about the way we are measured or blended into the cosmos, and that universal blending predetermines our measurement of light speed in favor of a universal or constant value.

In 1934, Irene Curie, working with her husband and fellow scientist, Frederic Joliot, made a discovery that would change the world: artificial radioactivity. This breakthrough allowed scientists to modify elements and create new ones by altering the structure of atoms. Curie shared a Nobel Prize with her husband for their work. But when she was nominated to the French Academy of Sciences, the academy denied her admission and voted to disqualify all women from membership.

Wer sich mit Einstein in einen Fahrstuhl begibt, lernt nicht nur den berühmtesten Physiker aller Zeiten kennen, sondern erlebt auch ungeahnte Abenteuer: Angenommen, das Seil des Fahrstuhls reißt. Dann zeigt eine Waage, auf der beide vielleicht stehen, nichts mehr an! Können sie dann überhaupt wissen, dass sie wirklich nach unten fallen und nicht etwa schwerelos im All schweben? Mit Experimenten und Versuchen zum Ausprobieren werden die Hörer anschaulich in die Grundlagen der Mechanik eingeführt.

A wise, very old, strongly clairvoyant lady leads us on a fictional journey through an imaginary land that symbolizes the levels of conscious of the mind of Homo sapiens. Perhaps there are many universes. Perhaps there is an unlimited number of virtual realities.

Under the Stars: Bedtime Astrophysics transports curious kids and inquisitive adults on an incredible journey through the night sky. Explore our solar system from the comfort of your cosy bedroom.

I am delighted to be presenting the 2014 Boyer Lectures and to have the opportunity to contribute to the national discussion about science through such an influential and historically significant platform. I hope to raise awareness of great scientific achievements, and of the vital importance of science to the future health and prosperity of Australia.
