Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the Trail of Stardust puts the heavens in your hands—in the form of cosmic dust, or micrometeorites. With this handy guide from the author of the international bestseller In Search of Stardust, Jon Larsen, you will learn how to find micrometeorites in your own neighborhood! Stardust—also known as micrometeorites—is the oldest matter anywhere. Nothing has traveled farther to reach Earth. For a century, scientists have searched everywhere for stardust, but only found it in remote areas like Antarctica and, more recently, outer space. Author and citizen scientist extraordinaire Jon Larsen was the first to find them in populated areas. With this book, you too can discover stardust as near as your own rooftop! Following his successful debut, In Search of Stardust, Larsen turns his attention from explaining the formation and various kinds of stardust to revealing his methods and techniques for finding micrometeorites in a compact, durable guide. Larsen covers everything from the origins and formation of micrometeorites to assembling the simple array of gear needed to get out there and find stardust in your own neighborhood, rooftop, or rain gutters. Larsen explains the best places to look and offers step-by-step photo sequences of the techniques he has developed to assemble his collection of 1,500-plus verified micrometeorites (and counting). And you don’t need a multi-million-dollar scanning electron microscope to document your collection; Jon shows how to assemble a serviceable photo setup from easily accessible equipment. The book is capped off with a field guide of sorts that offers a taxonomy of the various types of micrometeorites, along with sample images, as well as the kinds of man-made and terrestrial spherules that stardust hunters are likely to encounter and how to identify them as imposters. Once thought to exist only at the bottoms of oceans and atop polar ice, it turns out that stardust is everywhere…and On the Trail of Stardust is your indispensable tool to finding it for yourself.
Download or read book Texas Stardust written by Roy E Peterson and published by . This book was released on 2021-03-09 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About the Book: "Texas Stardust" is volume two of my Texas related poetry. Previously I published "Texas Trail Dust," containing 100 new tall tales and sweeping Texas stories featuring West Texas, campfire tales, cowboys, cowgirls, outlaws and modern Texas vistas and events. As in the first volume, "Texas Stardust" is a blend of fantasy and romance with facts, trivia, and historical accuracy. Whether you are a Texan by birth, a transplanted Texan needing a cultural guide, or ever fantasized about what goes on down here, both in the past and present, this book and the first one are for you. As with "Texas Trail Dust," "Texas Stardust," I assure you, is recommended by the Yellow Rose of Texas.About the Author: Roy E. Peterson was not born in Texas, but he got there as fast as he could. He made it by the eighth grade in 1956. The initial culture shock was palpable, but instantly was accepted because he made the JV football team and received a coveted monogrammed sweater as one of the few 8th graders to make the team. His high school history teacher was almost a fossil, but a strong disciplinarian. All Texas teachers had paddles made for them, ready for instant use as needed. The love of poetry comes from his mother, who was an English and Latin double major at Dakota Wesleyan University. Roy is an inveterate writer who fights for truth, historical appreciation, and moral values. In other words, the continuing true Texas culture invigorated by Christian principals, solid oilfield work ethic, and frontier justice. Roy Peterson is among the most educated men in America with three Master's Degrees and 200 post graduate (after the BA) hours.

Book excerpt: “The dazzling clutch of scientific minds caught in mid-thought here makes for a read that provokes thought in its turn. Delights abound.” —Nature “What distinguishes scientists, in your eyes?” —Stefan Klein “First and foremost, curiosity.” —Roald Hoffmann, Nobel Prize–winning chemist When Stefan Klein, an acclaimed journalist, sits down to talk with 18 of the world’s leading scientists, he finds they’re driven by, above all, curiosity. When they talk about their work, they turn to what’s next, to what they still hope to discover. And they see inspiration everywhere: From the sports car that physicist Steven Weinberg says helped him on his quest for “the theory of everything” to the jazz musicians who gave psychologist Alison Gopnik new insight into raising children, they reveal how their paradigm-changing work entwines with their lives outside the lab. We hear from extraordinary natural and social scientists, including: Evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins on ego and selflessness Primatologist Jane Goodall on chimpanzee behavior Neuroscientist V. S. Ramachandran on consciousness Geographer Jared Diamond on chance in history Anthropologist Sarah Hrdy on motherhood And cosmologist Martin Rees on how “ultimately we ourselves are stardust.” “[Klein’s] interview subjects explain their science clearly and display their passions vividly, making this an engaging introduction to a great breadth of scientific topics.” —American Scientist “A very welcome volume that will expose readers to all manner of topics that are likely new to them in a manner that focuses first on the lively personalities of the scientists while slowly diving into their work. Surprises abound . . . and the book’s diversionary aspect cannot be overrated. Truly enjoyable.” —Booklist
