This book is the boundary between science and philosophy dissolves into a haunting exploration of existence itself. Beginning with the mysterious precision of the universe’s physical constants and ending at the silent edge of knowledge, this book traces the anthropic principle not as an answer, but as a profound and unsettling question. From the delicate balance that permits life to the strange recursion of a cosmos observed by minds it created, each chapter draws closer to a truth that cannot be fully named.

The Emergence of Awe: Reimagining Human Progress for the 21st Century explores how humanity stands at a crossroads, where exponential technological advancement meets stagnant political and social systems. Drawing from science, philosophy and history, Hayk Sarkissian offers a bold new way of thinking – challenging us to align human values with objective reality. He questions the deep-rooted assumptions and foundations of modern society to propose a philosophical shift to empower human flourishing in the 21st century.

Entropy is one of the most profound and misunderstood concepts in modern science — at once a physical quantity, a measure of uncertainty, and a metaphor for the passage of time itself. Entropy: The Order of Disorder explores this concept in its full philosophical and scientific depth, tracing its evolution from the thermodynamics of Clausius and Boltzmann to the cosmology of the expanding universe, the information theory of Shannon, and the paradoxes of quantum mechanics.

This book takes the listener on an extraordinary journey through the invisible architecture of reality — from the quiet pull that keeps our feet on the ground to the roaring gravity wells of black holes and the earliest tremors of spacetime itself. It explores how gravity, more than any other force, reveals the unity of all things — connecting atoms, stars, and even consciousness in one continuous fabric of being.

Quando andiamo al cinema solitamente lo facciamo per svagarci e trascorrere qualche ora a rilassarci, meravigliarci, divertirci, sognare, emozionarci e talvolta riflettere. O, almeno, è così che dovrebbe andare. Se però il film tocca argomenti a noi noti, magari con pretese di realismo, può capitare che la nostra mente non sospenda l’incredulità e analizzi l’opera, finendo con apprezzarla od odiarla a prescindere dalla sua bellezza. C’è una categoria particolarmente fastidiosa, sotto questo aspetto, che si aggira nel buio delle sale cinematografiche: gli astrocosi.

A new myth for a new age! Enjoy the origins of the universe from a new perspective, combining aspects of Christian, Norse, Egyptian, and Greek cosmology. Primordium is Latin for the first beginning and used in biology to mean the earliest developmental stage for an organic substructure. These same Latin roots are combined to describe the theoretical swamp where life first began, the primordial soup.

Un'attrazione, ostinata e irresistibile, lega la terra e la luna, più che due corpi celesti quasi un pianeta doppio. I movimenti e le configurazioni lunari hanno fatto impazzire gli astronomi e affascinato la gente comune di tutti i tempi, suscitando un culto che ha accompagnato il cammino della nostra civiltà. Ancora oggi la rossa luna delle eclissi inchioda migliaia di persone con lo sguardo al cielo. Mezzo secolo dopo che l'uomo è atterrato sul suo suolo, la luna rientra finalmente nei plani strategici delle agenzie spaziali.

Nothing captivates the human imagination like the vast unknowns of space. Ancient petroglyphs present renderings of the heavens, proof that we have been gazing up at the stars with wonder for thousands of years. Since then, mankind has systematically expanded our cosmic possibilities. What were once flights of fancy and dreams of science fiction writers have become nearly routine. Space travel is a sometimes heroic, sometimes humorous, and always dangerous journey fraught with perils. Space Oddities brings unknown, offbeat, and obscure stories of space to life.

Han Song dipinge un futuro di esplorazioni spaziali in cui l'umanità, dopo aver colonizzato parte dell’universo, costruisce tombe magnificenti per commemorare coloro che sono eroicamente caduti nell'impresa.

In questo racconto due fratelli riescono finalmente a riconciliarsi dopo che uno di loro ha trascorso alcuni decenni nello spazio.

Tommaso Ghidini, da vent'anni coinvolto nei più prestigiosi programmi aerospaziali al mondo e alto funzionario dell'Agenzia Spaziale Europea, quella passione l'ha scoperta molto presto: il volo. L'irresistibile attrazione per quello spazio senza confini che è il cielo, sottile congiunzione tra la Terra e le stelle, ha plasmato la sua esistenza. Ghidini oggi ha occhi che vedono il futuro più da vicino di molti altri.

Our true origins are not only human, or even terrestrial, but in fact cosmic. Drawing on recent scientific breakthroughs and cross-pollination among geology, biology, astrophysics, and cosmology, Origins illuminates the soul-stirring leaps in our understanding of the cosmos. This newly revised and updated edition features such startling discoveries as the more than 5,000 newly detected exoplanets that shed light on the origins of and possibilities for life in the cosmos.

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.

The Apollo 12 moon mission was the second manned mission to the lunar surface, but what made it unique was that all three astronauts on this particular mission were already good friends and Navy buddies well before they became astronauts. This audiobook provides the previously untold story of this mission by those who were actually there in that era, and contains the uncensored, unedited, unfiltered, and previously unreleased interviews with all three of these Apollo 12 astronauts.

How big is the universe? In the early twentieth century, scientists took sides. One held that the entire universe was contained in the Milky Way galaxy. Their champion was the strong-willed astronomer Harlow Shapley. Another camp believed that the universe was so vast that the Milky Way was just one galaxy among billions—the view that would prevail, proven by the equally headstrong Edwin Hubble.

The inside look at how the battle of the space billionaires began and why it matters, Escaping Gravity is former NASA Deputy Administrator Lori Garver’s firsthand account of how a handful of revolutionaries outmaneuvered the system of political patronage and bureaucracy that threatened the space agency. The success of Elon Musk’s SpaceX, Jeff Bezos’s Blue Origin, Richard Branson’s Virgin Galactic, and countless other commercial space efforts were preceded by decades of work by a group of people Garver calls “space pirates.”

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?

生命は活動し、物体は形を持ち、時間は流れる。物質や光の最小単位・量子は、これらのあらゆる現象と関わりを持つ。だが量子には謎が多く、運動方程式など、私たちが住むマクロ(巨視的)な世界の物理法則
