Ever wonder why onions make you cry? Or why lizards do pushups? Or why leaves change color in the fall? Don't worry, you're not alone. Acclaimed science writer and broadcaster Jay Ingram wonders the same things. After a long career of asking important questions (does time speed up as we age? How much Neanderthal is in me? Why do some animals throw their feces?), he's here to put our scientific quandaries to rest.

Nobel per la chimica nel 1993, Kary Mullis è divenuto una leggenda per la scoperta della PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction), una tecnica che ha rivoluzionato il mondo della chimica e della genetica. Esperto surfista e contestatore nella Berkeley negli anni Sessanta, Mullis è l'unico Nobel ad aver descritto un possibile incontro con gli alieni.

Un tempo si studiava il cielo dall'alto dei templi. Oggi con telescopi spaziali. Un tempo si credeva che l'universo fosse una cupola sopra la Terra piatta. Oggi sappiamo di essere una briciola nello spazio-tempo che si espande dopo il Big Bang. Un tempo ogni civiltà aveva la sua cosmologia. Oggi tutto il mondo ha una sola scienza. In ogni caso, dai miti più ingenui alle teorie scientifiche più ardite, quello dell'Universo resta il "racconto" più affascinante che ha accompagnato l'evoluzione culturale dell'uomo.

Explore one of the greatest scientific mysteries of our time, the Pioneer Anomaly: In the 1980s, NASA scientists detected an unknown force acting on the spacecraft Pioneer 10, the first man-made object to journey through the asteroid belt and study Jupiter, eventually leaving the solar system. No one seemed able to agree on a cause. (Dark matter? Tensor–vector–scalar gravity? Collisions with gravitons?) What did seem clear to those who became obsessed with it was that the Pioneer Anomaly had the potential to upend Einstein and Newton.

Did you know that San Diego’s Frozen Zoo is home to preserved DNA samples from over 8,000 endangered or threatened species, or that the tell-tale smell of freshly mowed grass is actually the plant’s version of a distress call? And what about Henrietta Lacks, the “immortal woman” whose cancer cells have been divided and multiplied for research purposes for over 60 years? Even if you think you have a handle on all things trivia, you're guaranteed a big surprise with Now I Know: Science.

Story1
Augustin Fresnel (1788–1827) shocked the scientific elite with his unique understanding of the physics of light. The lens he invented was a brilliant feat of engineering that made lighthouses blaze many times brighter, farther, and more efficiently. Battling the establishment, his own poor health, and the limited technology of the time, Fresnel was able to achieve his goal of illuminating the entire French coast. At first, the British sought to outdo the new Fresnel-equipped lighthouses as a matter of national pride.

An accessible look at the hottest topic in physics and the experiments that will transform our understanding of the universe. The biggest news in science today is the Large Hadron Collider, the world's largest and most powerful particle-smasher, and the anticipation of finally discovering the Higgs boson particle. But what is the Higgs boson and why is it often referred to as the God Particle? Why are the Higgs and the LHC so important?

As Andrew Brown shows in Keeper of the Nuclear Conscience, Joseph Rotblat's life--from an impoverished childhood in war-torn Warsaw to an active old age that brought honors and public recognition, including the Nobel Peace Prize--is a compelling human story in itself. What gives it added significance is Rotblat's single-minded dedication to peaceful causes, particularly his pursuit of nuclear disarmament.

It's the ultimate technology: nanotechnology - the attempt to build ordinary objects from the atoms up, molecule by molecule. So named because its building blocks are the smallest pieces of matter, nanotechnology will give us complete control over the structure of matter, allowing us to build any substance or structure permitted by the Laws of Nature. Placing atoms as if they were bricks, nano-machines could turn grass clippings into prime sirloins - directly, without cows.

An extraterrestrial colony, in some form, may already exist, just awaiting discovery. But the greatest impediment to such an important scientific discovery may not be technological, but political. No scientific endeavor can be launched without a budget, and matters of money are within the arena of politicians. Dr. Ben Bova explores some of the key players and the arguments waged in a debate of both scientific and cultural priorities.

Quanti anni ha la vita? Qual è il destino delle stelle? Se l'atomo è fatto di vuoto, che cosa sostiene il mondo? Perché solo i nostri neuroni, tra quelli di tutte le specie, sono in grado di descrivere i neutrini? Edoardo Boncinelli e Antonio Ereditato ci raccontano l'avventura dell'Universo: dall'esplosione iniziale al costituirsi dell'architettura delle galassie, dal principio dello spaziotempo all'evoluzione dei sapiens e al sorgere della coscienza umana. Tornano a istanti che vanno da 10-30 a 10-20 secondi dopo il Big Bang.

Nel nostro immaginario sono sinonimi di mistero e distruzione; la fantascienza li ha spesso rappresentati come passaggi verso irraggiungibili universi paralleli. Ma sappiamo veramente cosa sono i buchi neri e quali caratteristiche hanno? Come si può dedurne la presenza nello spazio? Come influenzano la vita delle galassie? A partire dalle prime intuizioni tardo-settecentesche, attraverso la meccanica classica e la teoria della relatività, fino alle scoperte degli ultimi anni, l'autore ci racconta tutto quello che si sa su uno dei temi più affascinanti della fisica contemporanea.

Nata sotto la cattiva stella dell'arma che può distruggere il mondo, l'energia nucleare ha sempre attirato grandi consensi e grandi rifiuti. Da qualche anno si parla di "rinascimento nucleare" poiché questa fonte sembra rispondere non solo alla crescente domanda di energia mondiale, ma anche all'esigenza di produrre elettricità senza emettere gas serra. Ma è vero che il nucleare conviene e può contribuire allo sviluppo sostenibile? Oppure il rischio di emissioni radioattive e il problema delle scorie da smaltire ce ne devono tenere lontani?
