Showing titles in Cosmology

Подобные заголовки часто встречаются в прессе. В них не было бы большой беды, если бы из-за порождаемых мифов не формировалось конспирологическое мировоззрение, отрицающее историю космонавтики и достижения науки. Космическую мифологию легко опровергнуть фактами, но чтобы добраться до них, нужны знания и опыт. Книга Антона Первушина, писателя и научного журналиста, поможет сориентироваться в потоках информации и научиться отделять правду от вымысла.

Von einer Klimakatastrophe zur nächsten schlingernd entwickelte sich unsere Erde. Am Ende war da der Mensch, entstanden aus Sternenstaub – alles nur Zufall? Oder war hier ein Schöpfergott beteiligt? Heino Falcke und Jörg Römer gehen Herkunft und Zukunft unserer Welt auf den Grund: Sie sprechen mit Persönlichkeiten aus Quantenphysik, Evolutionsbiologie, Klimaforschung, Philosophie und Theologie und entwerfen eine anschauliche und lebendige Geschichte unseres blauen Planeten und der Entwicklung des Menschen.

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.

Alles über das All – wissenschaftlich fundiert und allgemein verständlich. Wie warm ist es im Weltraum? Sind Schwarze Löcher wirklich schwarz? Und warum altern Raumfahrer langsamer? Ulrich Walter ist einer von elf Deutschen, die im All waren. Auf seiner Mission mit der Raumfähre Columbia hat er Erfahrungen gemacht, von denen der Großteil der Menschheit nur träumen kann. Verständlich und unterhaltsam erklärt der Astronaut alles Wissenswerte über die Welt und den Weltraum – von der Relativitätstheorie bis zur Dunklen Materie.

The universe is watching you. And it's been running tests. Why does observing a particle change how it behaves? Why are physical constants tuned to impossible precision? Why do we see no aliens despite billions of planets where life could exist? Why does the future affect the past in quantum experiments? These aren't mysteries. They're experimental protocols.

What was before the universe? If space is expanding, what is it expanding into? Where did all the matter come from to form planets, stars, and oceans? What is nothing? And if none of these questions can be answered, why do we keep asking them? The Pointless Book asks the biggest questions human beings have ever conceived. The kind of questions that keep you awake at three in the morning. The kind that feel like they should have answers but never do. This book tries to answer them. It reaches for quantum physics, simulation theory, cosmology, philosophy, and religion.

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

From the moment of creation to the emergence of a planet tailor-made for life, science tells a sacred story: a superintelligent Creator used His mathematical genius to convert lifeless equations into galaxies, planets, and people. His love has been visible throughout the process. Could our journey reflect thousands of random accidents with no divine guidance? Creation delivered impulses that filled the universe with galaxies and stars. Eliminate any one of those blueprints and the universe would have been stillborn.

Seit Jahrzehnten beschäftigt die Frage nach dem intelligenten Leben jenseits unseres Planeten die Menschheit. Nun sind wir der Antwort so nah wie noch nie. Der Journalist Robert Fleischer präsentiert in diesem Buch die Ergebnisse seiner 16-jährigen Recherchen: UFOs sind nicht nur real, sondern stellen weltweit eine Herausforderung für Militärs und Geheimdienste dar. Vieles deutet darauf hin, dass eine nicht-menschliche Intelligenz dahintersteckt, die sich offenbar gezielt für ganz bestimmte Standorte auf der Erde interessiert und ein spezielles Motiv verfolgt.

What is time? Does it exist? Can it be stopped? Can time's arrow be reversed? Can we ever free ourselves from the seemingly inexorable flow of time? Chronos is a mystery, and not only for us: it was a mystery for our distant ancestors too. In this book, Guido Tonelli guides us along the path to...

The Earth, that trusty old spinning marble we call home, isn't a sphere at all. No, according to some, it is flat as a pancake (or a pizza, if we're being generous). Yet for thousands of people, this is reality – or at least their version of it. The Flat Earth phenomenon isn't new. It has ancient roots, woven into the cosmologies of civilizations long past. But what's fascinating is how, in a time when we can send rovers to Mars, carry pocket supercomputers, and live-stream cat videos from space stations, this belief has not only persisted but thrived.

An intriguing new scientific theory that explains what life is and how it emerges. What is life? This is among the most difficult open problems in science, right up there with the nature of consciousness and the existence of matter. All the definitions we have fall short. None help us understand...
