Download or read book The Third Explanation written by Brian J. Noble and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2013-09-23 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about the serious possibility of alien involvement in human origins, the origins of the Earth and even the cosmos. It refers to all the latest scientific thinking about a holographic universe and identifies the reasoning and the scientists who subscribe to that view. The book identifies some of the hundreds of extraordinary human artefacts that elongate our intelligence into the distant past, and gives modern scientific alternatives to the bland complacent teachings we all received in school. Consequently it is not a comfortable read. It is not meant to be. It further outlines the close encounters by astronauts and other such specialists, and explores the constructions visible on the Moon and on Mars in detail while exploring the geological history of the Earth and the other major solar system planets. It looks at alternative universes and human consciousness, and the possibilities inherent in life after death, with some startling examples. The last chapter ensures that we simply cannot be alone in the cosmos and that a code has been deliberately handed down to us, so that we might finally discover the codes purpose during our computer age. It is hoped that this book will make you rethink who you are, and what our purpose might really be on this planet.

Download or read book From The Sun To The Stars written by James B Kaler and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2016-08-22 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book begins at the Sun then travels through the solar system to see the stars, how they work, and ultimately what they mean to us. The idea is to provide an integrated view of the galaxy and its contents. Along the way we look at spectra, atmospheric phenomena, gravity and the laws of motion, telescopes and how they work, interstellar gas and dust, star birth and death, and planets orbiting other stars. Most popular books tend to focus on one particular topic. From the Sun to the Stars is one of the few that tells the story of the Sun against the background of other stars and other planets and, for that matter, of stars and other planets against the background of the Sun and solar system. This presents the subject with a breadth that few other books can match.This book grew out of the OLLI (Osher Lifelong Learning Institute) lectures given by the author at the University of Illinois. It doesn't require any prior knowledge and is suitable for anyone who is interested in astronomy.
