Showing titles in Cosmology

Edwin Powell Hubble (November 20, 1889 - September 28, 1953), born in Marshfield, MO, was an American astronomer who played a crucial role in establishing the fields of extragalactic astronomy and observational cosmology. Hubble proved that many objects previously thought to be clouds of dust and gas and classified as "nebulae" were actually galaxies beyond the Milky Way. Hubble's name is most widely recognized for the Hubble Space Telescope, which was named in his honor. The following is a 1945 recording of Hubble's lecture at the New York Philharmonic.

Oggi sappiamo che l’universo ha avuto origine con un big bang e si è espanso sotto il controllo delle componenti oscure di materia ed energia; abbiamo imparato come si formano, evolvono e interagiscono le galassie, e come nascono, vivono e muoiono le stelle; abbiamo cercato i pianeti extrasolari e i segnali della vita, ascoltato l’urlo della fusione di due buchi neri e molto altro ancora. Un sapere frutto del balzo in avanti dell’astrofisica e della cosmologia nel Novecento, stimolato e secondato dai grandiosi progressi della fisica e dalla tecnologia.

The Well-Planned Universe provides evidence-based insights into the nature of our world, ourselves, and the universe beyond. The book explains how recent developments in computer science along with evidence from physics, astronomy, chemistry, and biology reveal that there is more to the universe and ourselves than most people realize.

منذ بزوغ فجرها، ضُربت على البشرية قيود العُزلة والوحدة في كونٍ شاسع ومُظلم وعصي على التخيُّل.. ولأن الإنسان يحمل رغبة متأصِّلة تدفعه دائمًا إلى السعي وراء...

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.

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.

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.

Die großen Mysterien des Weltalls und unserer Erde: faszinierende Rätsel der Wissenschaft vom Autor des Sachhörbuch-Bestsellers (Fast) Alles einfach erklärt, Niklas Kolorz. Was war vor dem Urknall? Woraus besteht Dunkle Materie? Wie sieht mögliches Leben auf Exoplaneten aus? Science-Star Niklas Kolorz erforscht in seinem neuen Hörbuch die größten ungeklärten Fragen unseres Universums. Dafür begibt er sich an Orte, an denen die traditionellen Modelle der Physik versagen und die menschliche Vorstellungskraft bis ans Äußerste gefordert ist.

The year 2024 is marked by an astronomical phenomenon of monumental significance: the 2024 Supernova. This event is anticipated to be one of the most visually spectacular and scientifically significant astronomical events of the century.

Designed for both the tarot beginner and the more advanced student or listener in mind. We are excited to release this book to all interested in Tarot. It's uncertain if anyone knows everything that is included in this book - but you will!

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.

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.

Here is a book JAM-PACKED WITH FACTS and secrets from the Tarot.
