Space Universe

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.

There is no more profound, enduring, or fascinating question in all of science than that of how time, space, and matter began. Now John Barrow, who has been at the cutting edge of research in this area and has written extensively about it, guides us on a journey to the beginning of time, into a world of temperatures and densities so high that we cannot recreate them in a laboratory.

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.

They took away his sight, his hearing, his feeling, and his body. But he got to keep his brain—a fully operational CPU with a nerfed IO. Daler Tait is the youngest of three sons of a mining mogul on a desert planet in the far reaches of the galaxy. He has big ambitions and little patience, but to please his parents, he plans to apply to the Academy of Virtuous Knowledge.

Sierra Nevada, Northrup Grumman, Boeing, and Bigelow Aerospace built prototypes of deep-space habitats that NASA began testing in March 2019. Therefore, physical evidence exists that human beings are committed to living in space for purposes of research and industrial pursuits such as mining. Now that companies are set to take both professional astronauts and well-trained passengers into space as early as summer of 2021, this book will prepare you to take your place - whether as an investor, owner, employee, or enthusiast - in the exciting world of space exploration.

The fate of Earth's first colony rests on the shoulders of a pair of misfits: Theo Puck, a rogue hacker with a gift for speaking to machines, and Selena Samuelson, a brash but talented pilot with a dark secret in her past. Earth went silent over a decade ago. No contact, no resupply. If something doesn't change, the colony will go extinct. Theo and Selena's futures become intertwined as they carve out places for themselves in the crew that will navigate the Chimera back to Earth.

The bell has been rung, and the return of the Reignor has come.

Project Furya begins. Sound interesting? The author thinks so too! Listen to Star Force and experience the compelling world of genetic engineering and space exploration science fiction.

General Maada leads his fleet to the White Republic universe, where the Xenoakakies rule with an iron fist. There, he’s surprised to meet a few old friends as well as some new foes, including the Death Angel, the legendary enemy pilot who’s killed the general’s doppelganger. While Maada has been through his fair share of hopeless battles, this particular conflict is on another level altogether, even for him. The insects’ hold on this universe seems unshakable, and their fleet dwarfs the general’s in both numbers and power by no small margin.

L'Universo ha 13,8 miliardi di anni. Da quando si è formata, la Terra ha compiuto intorno al Sole quattro miliardi e mezzo di orbite. È un tempo impensabile, un tempo infinito. Un tempo che gli esseri umani non hanno occupato che per la più piccola delle frazioni. Eppure, da quando siamo comparsi sulla faccia del pianeta, da quando abbiamo iniziato ad accendere fuochi per tenere a bada la notte, non abbiamo mai smesso di alzare gli occhi alla volta senza confini. A meravigliarci per tutto quell'infinito sopra di noi, per tutto quello che non possiamo vedere.

Os grandes mistérios e maravilhas do céu noturno sempre nos fascinaram, intrigaram e divertiram, desde os primeiros passos na Terra. Hoje, continuamos nos esforçando para entender o nosso lugar no cosmos. O século 20 foi palco de importantes e assombrosas descobertas sobre o nosso próprio planeta, o sistema solar, as estrelas e as galáxias. Contudo, ainda buscamos respostas para inúmeras questões, e essa busca nos proporciona uma valiosa compreensão da vastidão e das infinitas possibilidades do espaço universal que ainda estamos por descobrir.

Star Force has existed for 156,000 years, risen beyond a galactic empire of dinosaurs intent on wiping out humanity only to face an intergalactic scourge known as the Hadarak. They've rescued thousands of alien races and incorporated them into their human-led empire, building a civilization that draws onlookers from numerous galaxies to try and figure out the secret of their success.

When the Hadarak took over a world, they killed everything they came across in the way of animal life. Sometimes smaller rodents would escape the purge if the Hadarak did not have their tinier forms in production that could actually catch and kill them, but in general, once a planet was fully "consumed", there would be no lifeforms on it except Hadarak.

With the long-anticipated arrival of the founders in the Temples, Star Force's future will change drastically, one way or another. The time of anonymity is ended. Extra-galactic contact has finally arrived.

The Hadarak's call for help does not go unanswered, and the Triad begins to realize just how futile a war against the galaxy's true rulers is.
