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.

This classic in the field of ufology is filled with hard-hitting eyewitness testimony of one of the most important events of all time: the actual recovery of a UFO outside of Roswell, New Mexico, in 1947. For more than seventy years, government authorities have led us to believe the wreckage was merely a very conventional weather balloon - but the witnesses who were there continue to tell a different story. Witness to Roswell once again provides a "can't put down" written account of what really transpired in Roswell decades ago. 

The possibility of life elsewhere in the cosmos is one of the most profound subjects that human beings can ponder. Astrophysicist Andrew May gives an expert overview of our current state of knowledge, looking at how life started on Earth, the tell-tale ‘signatures’ it produces and how such signatures might be detected elsewhere in the solar system or on the many ‘exoplanets’ now being discovered by the Kepler and TESS missions.

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.

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。

For readers of Sean Carroll, Brian Greene, Katie Mack, and anyone who wants to know what theoretical physicists actually do. This Way to the Universe is a celebration of the astounding, ongoing scientific investigations that have revealed the nature of reality at its smallest, at its largest...

Brought to you by Penguin. This Way to the Universe is a celebration of the astounding, ongoing scientific investigations that have revealed the nature of reality at its smallest, at its largest, and at the scale of our daily lives. The enigmas Professor Michael Dine discusses are like landmarks...

Brad Steiger, the world-renowned authority on unexplained phenomena, presents a collection of UFO encounters and abductions. His provocative theories provide answers to the most puzzling questions: Why are they here? What do they want? And how will they change the fate of the human race?

A Short History of Nearly Everything meets Astrophysics for People in a Hurry in this humorous, accessible exploration of how meteorites have helped not only build our planet but steered the evolution of life and human culture. The Solar System. Dinosaurs. Donkey Kong. What is the missing link?...

My beginner's book is your ticket to one of the coolest and most mysterious subjects out there. This isn't your average physics book. It's a portal to understanding the stuff that makes up... well, everything! Subatomic particles. Do not let their size fool you; they have a massive impact on the world around you—the fundamental part of how everything works and not as complex as you might fear.

Sometimes our understanding of our universe is given a huge boost by one insightful thinker. Such a boost came in the first half of the 20th century, when an obscure Belgian priest put his mind to deciphering the nature of the cosmos. The Day Without Yesterday covers the modern history of an evolving universe, and how Georges Lemaître convinced a generation of thinkers to embrace the notion of cosmic expansion and the theory that this expansion could be traced backward to the cosmic origins, a starting point for space and time that Lemaître called "the day without yesterday".

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.

"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.

Mind Openers 1.0 is the first of a two-part set. It chronicles how the astounding discoveries of modern physics have fundamentally changed our understanding of reality. Using a mix of historical narrative, intuitive analogies, and graphics, the book explores, explains, and ponders at meaning of our deepest theories. The author is a geophysicist and educator who specializes in translating scientific material for the non-expert.

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、

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.

¿A qué estrella debemos el conocimiento de que la Tierra gira sobre su propio eje? ¿Por qué la luminosidad de algunos astros varía y cuál es su relación con el descubrimiento del tamaño del cosmos? ¿Qué pueden enseñarnos los cuerpos celestes que todavía no han nacido? De la...

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.

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”?
