Science Cosmology

Wir wissen, dass das Universum vor vielen Milliarden Jahren in einem gewaltigen Feuerball entstand - dem Urknall. Aber wie wird die Geschichte unseres Universums enden? Wird es in unvorstellbarer Hitze verglühen - oder in eisiger Starre vergehen? Wird es zu einem Klumpen unendlicher Dichte kollabieren, und wird das Ende wirklich das Ende sein - oder entsteht das Universum danach von Neuem? Die renommierte Astrophysikerin Katie Mack nimmt uns mit auf eine faszinierende Reise zu den Grenzen von Raum und Zeit und zeigt auf unterhaltsame Weise, was die Wissenschaft über das Ende des Kosmos weiß.

What is the Origin of the Universe? And the fight is on. In the red corner, Science. In the blue corner, Religion. For hundreds of years, the scuffling continues, and there's no clear winner. Now, there is, and it's neither! Think. The Origin of the Universe can only have ONE explanation. To reach that, we have to show coherent completeness between Science and God. Your faith in Science and God hangs in the balance. You can't have confidence in the Big Bang and Creation if you think there are conflicting stories. Meet the mediator and winner, Theology. Origin of the Universe makes sense out...

Fra tutte le teorie scientifiche, la relatività è quella che più ci affascina e ci sconcerta. Andando contro la nostra rassicurante percezione del mondo, ci costringe a prendere atto che spazio e tempo non sono due dimensioni fisse e separate, ma si contraggono e si dilatano, sfumando l'una nell'altra, fino a perdere la loro individualità. La realtà è, dunque, molto più strana di quello che appare. Tutto ciò può sembrare misterioso o comprensibile solo agli addetti ai lavori. Ma non è così.

Don't look up. It won't help. You can't get out of the way; you can't dig a hole deep enough to hide. The end is coming, and there's nothing you can do about it. So why listen to this audiobook? Because you can't cover your ears when it's not just the religious fanatics who are saying we're all going to be destroyed, but the scientists are in on the act, too.

Sarah Cruddas has been looking to the skies her entire life. Her childhood was spent staring at the moon and hearing stories of the space race, and she worked in a fruit factory to fund her love of the subject. Her subsequent career studying astrophysics and becoming a television host and space journalist has seen her report on space exploration and chase launches across the world. In Look Up Sarah explains why she has always been a passionate advocate for why space should matter - to everyone.

It's about time you learned the truth about this planet—it's broken beyond repair. This little book could potentially create a big ripple in the world of geology and geophysics. It started with a little vision from God, given to the author while he was in his garage. You won't find another book that discusses the world like this.

En El universo en una caja, el profesor de cosmología Andrew Pontzen, explica de una manera clara y rigurosa qué son las simulaciones, esos códigos informáticos con los que los científicos han podido recrear el universo y profundizar en su historia, poniendo a prueba por primera vez ideas centenarias. Esta suerte de manual fundamental para amantes de la astronomía, que aún está desplegando sus capacidades, replantea lo que creemos saber sobre los agujeros negros o la materia cósmica para arrojar nuevas luces sobre nuestra realidad.

Could there be a civilisation on a mote of dust? How much of your fate have you made? Who cleans the universe? Through more than 50 Koans - pleasingly paradoxical vignettes following the ancient Zen tradition - leading physicist Anthony Aguirre takes the listener across the world from Japan to Italy, and through ideas spanning the age, breadth and depth of the Universe. Using these beguiling Koans and a flair for explaining complex science, Aguirre covers cosmic questions that scientific giants from Aristotle to Galileo to Heisenberg have grappled with.

At the heart of the Milky Way, there is a distortion in the fabric of the Universe. Caused by something 4 million times bigger than our Sun, it is where space and time are so warped that everything within 12 million kilometres is trapped, even light. This region of no return is called the event horizon, and inside it lies the end of time as we know it. We have named it Sagittarius A* and it is a supermassive black hole.

The Short Story of the Universe is a new introduction to the subject of the universe. Covering 130 key components that make it up - from dwarf galaxies and spiral arms to red giants and the planets of the solar system - and linking these to the universe's structure and the theories that help us understand it, this book simplifies this riveting yet mind-boggling subject, telling the story of how it came into being and how it will eventually be no more.

Paul Singh and John R. Shook draw on the latest findings from the physical and biological sciences, astronomy and cosmology, geology and genetics, and prehistory and archeology in search of answers. As they lucidly and engagingly demonstrate, the answers science gives about ourselves and the universe in which we live are incomparably more surprising and interesting than any mythical tale about some clash of titans or calculating creator.

In this thrilling history, David Baker captures the longest possible time span—from the Big Bang to the present day—in an astonishingly concise retelling. His impressive timeline includes the "rise of complexity" in the cosmos and the creation of the first atoms; the origin of all galaxies, stars, and our solar system; and the evolution of life on Earth, from tiny single-celled organisms to human beings.

The possibility of life elsewhere in the cosmos is one of the most profound subjects that human beings can ponder. Astrophysicist Andrew May gives an expert overview of our current state of knowledge, looking at how life started on Earth, the tell-tale ‘signatures’ it produces and how such signatures might be detected elsewhere in the solar system or on the many ‘exoplanets’ now being discovered by the Kepler and TESS missions.

The Haiku Quintet is an innovation based on the traditional Japanese poetic form, but consisting of five haiku under a single umbrella idea which, as an ensemble, comprise a narrative theme. A photo or image illustrates and completes the final product. I dub this novel art form "verbal impressionism by curious wordcraft." This volume contains 142 quintets arranged in 15 topical albums, including Love & Relationships, Life & Death, Art, Science, Life Events, Racism, Coronavirus 2020, Politics 2020, Puerto Vallarta, and Lighter Fare. Designed to be enjoyed over many discontinuous sittings, ...

An ancient document was found and its basic message is that mankind will be destroyed by an asteroid hitting Earth. To understand and assess the truth of this, Asteroid Impact: Revelation Foretells Our End reviews the purpose of Revelation, who wrote it, and why and how it was written. The book explores the scientific facts upon which the predictions of the Bible are based and analyzes the history of asteroid impacts on Earth in order to assess the accuracy of Biblical predictions.

Tommaso Ghidini, da vent'anni coinvolto nei più prestigiosi programmi aerospaziali al mondo e alto funzionario dell'Agenzia Spaziale Europea, quella passione l'ha scoperta molto presto: il volo. L'irresistibile attrazione per quello spazio senza confini che è il cielo, sottile congiunzione tra la Terra e le stelle, ha plasmato la sua esistenza. Ghidini oggi ha occhi che vedono il futuro più da vicino di molti altri.

Cubre la aplicabilidad de los conceptos cosmológicos egipcias para nuestra comprensión moderna de la naturaleza del universo, la creación, la ciencia y la filosofía.

Este audiolibro analiza las probabilidades existentes de vida sin consciencia alguna y el desarrollo de civilizaciones a partir de seres racionales. Para que existan vidas similares a la humana más allá de la Tierra es necesario que estos dos saltos cualitativos que se produjeron en la Tierra tengan lugar también en otro lugar del Universo. Según los conocimientos científicos actuales, lo primero es relativamente probable, no así lo segundo, lo cual no significa que sea imposible.

Spectroscopy, the study of the interaction between matter and electromagnetic radiation, may sound complex and esoteric, but at its heart lies a simple and profound idea: the colors of light can reveal the secrets of the universe. From the examination of distant stars to the analysis of molecules in a laboratory, spectroscopy is the key that unlocks the hidden stories encoded in light.

Until recently, scientists could only guess at what lay past the edge of spacetime. But as pioneering theoretical physicist Laura Mersini-Houghton explains, today new scientific tools are giving us the ability to peer beyond the limits of our universe and test our theories about what is there. Her groundbreaking research suggests that we sit in a quantum landscape whose peaks and valleys hide a multitude of other universes, and whose topography holds the secret to the origins of existence itself.
