Astrophysikerin Suzanna Randall ist so fasziniert von unserem Kosmos, dass sie ständig in den Himmel schaut – und zwar mit den größten Teleskopen der Welt. Dabei fängt sie nicht nur sichtbare Lichtwellen ein, sondern enthüllt auch die Geheimnisse des unsichtbaren Universums. Randall stellt die interessantesten kosmischen Phänomene anhand der Farbpalette des Regenbogens vor: von roten Radiowellen bis violetter Gammastrahlung.

You're invited to discover the wonder and drama of the history of the cosmos. Follow the journey of one proton who comes into existence at the beginning of creation and makes it all the way through history to today. By becoming a part of atoms and molecules that turn up at some of the universe's most important moments, our friend Proton witnesses emerging galaxies, the origin of life, evolution, the first human beings, the birth and life of Jesus, the beginnings of the Christian church, all the way up to the present day. Through it all, the plans of the Creator continue to unfold.

A new myth for a new age! Enjoy the origins of the universe from a new perspective, combining aspects of Christian, Norse, Egyptian, and Greek cosmology. Primordium is Latin for the first beginning and used in biology to mean the earliest developmental stage for an organic substructure. These same Latin roots are combined to describe the theoretical swamp where life first began, the primordial soup.

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.

Mind Openers 2.0 is the second installment in a two-part set. It takes a fresh look at relativity, cosmology, and quantum theory by imagining a “sandbox universe”, in which space and time are treated as tangible and visualizable phenomena. In addition to providing an intuitive feel for the physics, the model makes a number of acutely unexpected predictions. The author is a geophysicist (MSc, fellow of geoscientists, Canada) and educator, who specializes in translating scientific material for the non-expert.

Mit diesem Hörbuch begeben Sie sich auf eine Reise vom Beginn des Universums in die ferne Zukunft: Was ist Zeit? Kann man den Urknall sehen? Wie funktioniert Inflation? Wie entstehen Sterne? Wie untersucht man Exoplaneten? Wie sieht die Zukunft des Universums aus? Kann die Zeit enden? Fünfzehn allgemeinverständliche Beiträge aus Spektrum der Wissenschaft und Sterne und Weltraum bieten dem Leser einen vielfältigen Blick auf unser Universum: der erste Teil der Beiträge beschäftigt sich mit dem frühen Universum, mit Zeit, Urknall, Inflation und Dunkler Materie.

During the formative years of Egyptian civilization, each Cosmogony was present. Students from many regions and segments of society attended the Houses of Life, and royals regularly donated endowments for the temple's maintenance and activities. These circumstances suggest a theological harmony, suggesting that a group of religious centers must have been cohesive despite their distinctive teachings and practices. Regardless of time or place in popularity, each creation myth was integral to the Egyptians' worldview.

Trained as a musician, amateur scientist William Herschel found international fame after discovering the planet Uranus in 1781. Though he is still best known for this finding, his partnership with his sister Caroline yielded groundbreaking work, including techniques that remain in use today. The duo pioneered comprehensive surveys of the night sky, carefully categorizing every visible object in the void. Caroline wrote an influential catalogue of nebulae, and William discovered infrared radiation.

No direct explanation is given for the origin and nature of the luminous bodies, the sun, the planets, and the stars. Because the Sumerians regarded the moon-god, who went by the names Sin and Nanna, as the son of the air-god Enlil, it does not seem unreasonable to suggest that they saw the moon as a bright, air-like body fashioned from the atmosphere. As the sun-god Utu and the Venus goddess Inanna are always referred to as children of the moon-god, these luminous bodies were probably imagined as having come from the moon after the latter had been formed from the atmosphere.

How big is the universe? In the early twentieth century, scientists took sides. One held that the entire universe was contained in the Milky Way galaxy. Their champion was the strong-willed astronomer Harlow Shapley. Another camp believed that the universe was so vast that the Milky Way was just one galaxy among billions—the view that would prevail, proven by the equally headstrong Edwin Hubble.

Nearly 60 years ago, Nobel Prize-winners Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson stumbled across a mysterious hiss of faint radio static that was interfering with their observations. They had found the key to unravelling the story of the Big Bang and the origin of our universe. That signal was the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), the earliest light in the universe, released 379,000 years after the Big Bang.

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.

"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.

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。

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、

In Fit for a Purpose, biochemist Fazale Rana fearlessly pushes the boundaries of the anthropic principle beyond cosmology. In the process, Rana invites the listener to discover the world of chemical and biochemical fine-tuning, as well as to contemplate this question: If the universe is fit for life, and biochemical systems are fit for their role in life, is it possible that everything is “fit for a purpose”?

Wenn die Galaxien-Forscherin Ruth Grützbauch nicht mit ihrem Pop-up-Planetarium, das in ein Lastenrad passt, durch die Lande fährt, bringt sie den Menschen in ihrem erfolgreichen Podcast die unendlichen Weiten des Weltraums näher. Kenntnisreich, mitreißend und charmant erzählt sie in "Per Lastenrad durch die Galaxis" die Geschichte des Kosmos als eine Geschichte der Galaxien. Ihr Hörbuch ist originell illustrierter Roadtrip zum Anfang des Universums und Lob der Astronomie - und ihrer gigantischen Teleskope, mit deren Hilfe wir das Unsichtbare zu sehen vermögen - in einem.

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:

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.
