Science Cosmology

重力は、宇宙を支配する力。「弱い」「消せる」など不思議な性質があり、まだその働きが解明されていない重力。最新の重力研究から宇宙の根本原理に迫る。

Astronomers have determined that our universe is 13.7 billion years old. How exactly did they come to this precise conclusion? How Old Is the Universe? tells the incredible story of how astronomers solved one of the most compelling mysteries in science and, along the way, introduces listeners to fundamental concepts and cutting-edge advances in modern astronomy.

Quando e dove è iniziata la vita? E a cosa somigliavano le prime forme di vita? Interrogativi che l'uomo si pone da sempre, per i quali, pur in mancanza di risposte definitive, si possono avanzare alcune ipotesi. Come quella che colloca l'origine della vita intorno a 3,8 miliardi di anni fa, in un contesto riconducibile a uno di questi ambienti: brodo primordiale, campi geotermali, siti di impatto meteoritico. Certo è che le tessere del più grande e affascinante dei puzzle restano RNA, amminoacidi, protogeni, protocellule.

Set in a revolutionary era of physics and science when a series of rapid-fire discoveries was upending our understanding of the universe, Splinters of Infinity by Mark Wolverton tells a little-known story: the tale of two of America's foremost physicists, Robert Millikan (1868-1953) and Arthur Compton (1892-1962), who found themselves locked in an intense, often deeply personal, conflict about cosmic rays.

How did we get here? What was here before us? In this informative book, Cosmic Evolution, written by Ramesh Nathan, founder of the Church of Illuminism, explore the concept of evolution. Evolution is very different from what we have been taught. In the modern world, we relate evolution to a physical process and growth. This is incorrect. The concept of evolution in reality has only to deal with the soul, with the consciousness. The evolution of mankind is the evolution of mankind's consciousness.

In October of 2016, our estimate of how many galaxies there are in the universe jumped from 200 billion to 2 trillion, which begs the question: is there life outside of our planet? And if so, what does that do to our theology? In Alien Theology, Pastor Bradley enters into a conversation that started before Christ and considers the possibility of alien life in light of Scripture, science, and logic.

Blending cutting-edge ideas with incisive spiritual insights, Evolutionaries is the first popular presentation of an emerging school of thought called "evolutionary spirituality". Carter Phipps, the former executive editor of EnlightenNext magazine, asserts that evolution is not only a scientific but also a spiritual idea in an audiobook whose message has the power to bring new meaning and purpose to life as we know it.

For Irwin Shapiro, science starts with questions. This book provides a broad and entertaining survey of major scientific discoveries that have changed our views of nature and, in turn, spawned further questions. Shapiro, an award-winning scientist and beloved teacher, separates his inquiry into three parts: looking up at the universe; looking down at the earth and its fossils; and looking in at the story of life. His framework encourages listeners to view science as a detective story—to observe and question nature and natural phenomena, and to base all conclusions on scientific evidence.

How did the universe come to be? What happened during the very first instant of its existence? Scientific discovery and the Big Bang theory go into exquisite detail about the development of the universe after that first instant, but we remain in the dark about how it all began. Or do we? Join the authors in a riveting exploration of science’s latest advancements in cosmology, and the Bible’s esoteric dimension, which teaches the deepest cosmological insights into the fundamental workings of the universe.

Forty-four science articles using the Rational Scientific Method of Inquiry. These subjects are covered in the book Curious Chain of Events, and this is the first in a series of Rational Science books.

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.

Were ancient Greek philosophers right about reality being only an illusion? What was really the biggest blunder of Einstein's life? Is everything we've been taught about the universe incorrect? In The Unobservable Universe, visionary scientist and engineer Scott M. Tyson successfully unravels cosmology from the level of rocket science and brings it down to Earth, demystifying the universe in terms that laymen can comprehend and enjoy, splitting atoms but not hairs on this magical mystery tour of the outback of time and space.

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.

Space is filled with wondrous and mind-boggling objects. New discoveries are made every year. This book has 199 trivia questions to test your memory. But you don’t have to worry if you get stumped. The answer is revealed and includes 557 out-of-this-world facts. This book covers a broad spectrum of thought-provoking questions, such as:

This book gets into the history of the JWST, the instruments it carries, new observations, and ideas of what these anomalies mean. We review some of the most important observations made to date, and finally, some theories of how to explain these incredible views of the early reality of the Universe.

Vorwärts in die Vergangenheit. Weiße Löcher sind das Gegenteil von Schwarzen Löchern – sie sind vermutlich ihre Abkömmlinge. Die einen ziehen alle Materie unwiderstehlich in sich hinein, die anderen geben ihre Information wieder frei. Sie sind ein weiteres großes Rätsel der Kosmologie, und noch gibt es keinen Beweis ihrer Existenz. Einsteins Gleichungen lassen sie aber vermuten, und mit Carlo Rovellis Quantentheorie sind Weiße Löcher theoretisch darstellbar.

In Signposts to God, particle physicist Peter Bussey introduces listeners to the mysteries of modern physics and astronomy. Authored in clear, accessible prose, Bussey provides a primer on topics such as the laws of nature, quantum physics, fine-tuning, and current cosmological models. Bussey argues that, far from ruling out a divine creator, modern physics and astronomy present us with compelling signposts to God. The more we know about the cosmos and our presence in it, the more plausible belief in God becomes.

Após o enorme sucesso de Uma breve história do tempo, a Intrínseca traz a luxuosa reedição de O universo numa casca de noz, na qual Stephen Hawking se vale de ilustrações, fotos e esquemas detalhados para mostrar grandes descobertas no campo da física teórica. Tudo isso, é claro, com sua conhecida clareza, elucidando temas complexos por meio de conceitos e ideias do dia a dia, como a inflação, as cartas de baralho e as linhas ferroviárias, e permeado com seu peculiar senso de humor.

14 Milliarden Jahre in 2 Stunden und 24 Minuten - Kurz und knackig: Das Wichtigste über das Universum - für Leute, die wenig Zeit haben. Die junge Oxforder Astrophysikerin Becky Smethurst führt in zehn kurzen Kapiteln zügig durchs Weltall. Was existierte vor dem Big Bang, gibt es da draußen noch andere Lebewesen, was ist das Geheimnis Dunkler Materie und Schwarzer Löcher? Für alle, die große Fragen ans Universum haben, und diese gerne sowohl wissenschaftlich als auch humorvoll beantwortet hätten. Becky Smethursts Begeisterung für Astrophysik ist mitreißend.

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.
