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.

Is time travel possible? What does it mean to say the universe is fine-tuned? Could our universe be fake? Or, if it is real, is it part of a multiverse? In an attempt to solve such mysteries, leading experts attempt to break the world down to its smallest particles and build it back up - to understand the universe by understanding the atom. In this compelling audio course, Dr. Robert Lawrence Kuhn, creator and host of the PBS series Closer to Truth, examines the riddles of the universe with 13 luminaries in physics, cosmology, astronomy, philosophy, mathematics, and chemistry.

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.

Trained as a musician, amateur scientist William Herschel found international fame after discovering the planet Uranus in 1781. Though he is still best known for this finding, his partnership with his sister Caroline yielded groundbreaking work, including techniques that remain in use today. The duo pioneered comprehensive surveys of the night sky, carefully categorizing every visible object in the void. Caroline wrote an influential catalogue of nebulae, and William discovered infrared radiation.

Mind Openers 2.0 is the second installment in a two-part set. It takes a fresh look at relativity, cosmology, and quantum theory by imagining a "sandbox universe," in which space and time are treated as tangible and visualizable phenomena. In addition to providing an intuitive feel for the physics, the model makes a number of acutely unexpected predictions. The author is a geophysicist (M.Sc., Fellow of Geoscientists, Canada) and educator, who specializes in translating scientific material for the non-expert.

L'universo racchiude numerosi segreti e potrebbe perfino nascondere dimensioni inimmaginabili: universi paralleli, geometrie curve e inghiottitoi tridimensionali sono alcuni degli straordinari concetti che di recente sono divenuti protagonisti della ricerca scientifica. Oggi, delle leggi del cosmo capiamo molto più di qualche anno fa, eppure abbiamo molte meno certezze sulla sua vera natura. Nel suo percorso di ricerca nel campo della cosmologia e della fisica, Lisa Randall ha dovuto abbattere alcuni paletti della scienza ufficiale.

“Cosmos” comes from a Greek word for an orderly and systematic universe. In this book, we present the most riveting discoveries and mind-bending ideas about our cosmic home, from what we know of the origins of the universe and the cartography of space to the most bizarre phenomena and the search for life. Discussions include the possibility that the big bang was the consequence of a black hole in a fourth spatial dimension, that cosmic ripples created infinite universes, that entangled black holes could act as wormhole-like passageways through space, and much more.

Vorwärts in die Vergangenheit. Weiße Löcher sind das Gegenteil von Schwarzen Löchern – sie sind vermutlich ihre Abkömmlinge. Die einen ziehen alle Materie unwiderstehlich in sich hinein, die anderen geben ihre Information wieder frei. Sie sind ein weiteres großes Rätsel der Kosmologie, und noch gibt es keinen Beweis ihrer Existenz. Einsteins Gleichungen lassen sie aber vermuten, und mit Carlo Rovellis Quantentheorie sind Weiße Löcher theoretisch darstellbar.

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”?

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.
