Pillars of Creation: Is a poem based around the rekindling of interest in them from the the Hubble Space Telescope in 1995.

Trous noirs, exoplanètes, les nouvelles techniques d'observation en astronomie ont permis d'extraordinaires découvertes. Une résolution beaucoup plus fine des images. Durant les dernières décennies, de nouveaux instruments d'observation situés sur Terre et dans l'espace ont, grâce à des progrès dans la résolution des images, donné lieu à des découvertes extraordinaires. Trous noirs et exoplanètes : des découvertes extraordinaires. Pierre Léna décrit ici ces innovations instrumentales et s'attarde sur deux découvertes majeures récentes.

L'Univers a-t-il une forme ? En s'intéressant au contenu visible de l'univers, aux planètes, aux étoiles et aux galaxies, on oublie parfois le contenant invisible, l'espace lui même. Celui-ci est-il un simple réceptacle passif ? A-t-il une forme, une structure ? Est-il fini ou infini ? Est-il courbe, plat, lisse ou grumeleux ?Une présentation des différents modèles cosmologiques. Jean-Pierre Luminet présente les grandes lignes des démarches cosmologiques actuelles et des formes possibles de l'univers.

Jean Pierre Luminet nous invite à un voyage fascinant qui, de la Grèce antique à nos jours, explore les métamorphoses de l'infini. De manière toujours accessible, il aborde l'infini de l'espace avec la cosmologie, celui des nombres avec les mathématiques et les mystères de l'infiniment petit dans la matière avec la physique quantique.

Un Univers en expansion - La cosmologie est l'étude de l'Univers dans son ensemble. En expansion depuis 15 milliards d'années, son histoire est jalonnée d'événements cosmiques : fabrication de la matière, génération du rayonnement cosmologique, apparition des galaxies... La cosmologie est aujourd'hui devenue une science, relativiste depuis le début du XX° siècle.Une histoire de nos nos connaissances sur l'Univers. Marc Lachièze-Rey retrace ici les grandes lignes de l'évolution des idées et des principes qui fondent nos connaissances sur l'Univers.

We are living in a golden age in astronomy and in the search for life the universe. Over the last few decades, space exploration has shown that not only are there habitable environments within our solar system, but there are millions of exoplanets within our galaxy that could support life. We are on the cusp of breakthroughs that will revolutionize our understanding of our place in the cosmos in. In The Secret Life of the Universe, astrobiologist and the director of the Carl Sagan Center at the SETI Institute Nathalie A. Cabrol takes us to the frontiers of the search for life.

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.

The universe should be fun, and you’re about to discover an audiobook that understands that, weaving humor and wit into every minute so that you not only understand what you’re listening to, but enjoy the whole process.

On April 8, 2024, one of nature's rarest and most spectacular events will take place–a total solar eclipse. Immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty and celestial wonder of the April 8, 2024 total solar eclipse.

The Russell Cosmogony: A New Concept of Light, Matter, and Energy by Walter Russell offers a revolutionary perspective on the workings of the universe, challenging conventional scientific paradigms. This groundbreaking work explores the principles of light, matter, energy, electricity, and magnetism through a unique lens, emphasizing the unity and rhythmic balance of all creation.

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.

Ein Blick auf die Erforschung außerirdischen Lebens, die unser Verständnis des Kosmos verändert. Seit Tausenden von Jahren fragen sich die Menschen, ob sie allein im Weltall sind. Zum ersten Mal können wir nun auch die entsprechende Technologie nutzen, um das zu untersuchen. Die Frage nach anderem Leben im Universum sollte eine klare Antwort haben: ja oder nein. Aber wenn man versucht, anderswo Leben zu finden, stellt man fest, dass es nicht so einfach ist. Wie kann man es über kosmische Entfernungen hinweg finden? Was ist eigentlich Leben?

The 2024 solar eclipse promises to be a momentous event, uniting communities and sparking scientific curiosity across North America. As the moon's shadow sweeps across the continent, observers will gather to witness nature's grand spectacle, pondering the mysteries of the cosmos and their place within it. From scientific research to cultural celebrations, the 2024 solar eclipse serves as a reminder of the profound connections between Earth and the cosmos, inspiring wonder and awe in all who behold it.

Seja você um entusiasta da ciência, um pensador profundo ou simplesmente alguém em busca de aventura e sabedoria, este livro promete um refúgio do cotidiano, transportando-o em uma viagem de conhecimento e inspiração.

El ser humano debe integrarse con la inteligencia artificial para superar sus limitaciones biológicas y asegurar su supervivencia en un sistema solar que tiene los días contados. Acepta la invitación a ser parte de la vanguardia en la convergencia tecnológica.

In Into the Unknown, astrophysicist Kelsey Johnson takes us to the edge of scientific understanding about the universe: What caused the Big Bang? What happens inside black holes? Are there other dimensions? She doesn’t just celebrate what we know but rather what we don’t, and asks what it means if we never find that knowledge. Exploring the convergence of science, philosophy, and theology, Johnson argues we must reckon with possibilities—including those that may be beyond human comprehension.

The James Webb Space Telescope is transforming the universe right before our eyes—and here, for the first time, is the inside account of how the mission originated, how it performs its miracles of science, and what its revolutionary images are revealing. Pillars of Creation tells the story of one of the greatest scientific achievements in the history of civilization, a $10 billion instrument with a staggeringly ambitious goal: unlocking the secrets of the cosmos.

Set in a revolutionary era of physics and science when a series of rapid-fire discoveries was upending our understanding of the universe, Splinters of Infinity by Mark Wolverton tells a little-known story: the tale of two of America's foremost physicists, Robert Millikan (1868-1953) and Arthur Compton (1892-1962), who found themselves locked in an intense, often deeply personal, conflict about cosmic rays.

On September 11, 1999, humanity made a monumental discovery in the vastness of space. Scientists uncovered an asteroid of immense scientific importance—a colossal celestial entity. As massive as an aircraft carrier and towering as high as the iconic Empire State Building, this cosmic titan was later named Bennu. Remarkable for much more than its size, Bennu belonged to a rare breed of asteroids capable of revealing the essence of life itself. But just as Bennu became a beacon of promise, researchers identified a grave danger.
