Book excerpt: Le Big Bang prouve-t-il l'existence de Dieu ? Dans quoi l'Univers se développe-t-il ? La Terre est-elle la seule planète abritant la vie ? Pourquoi le plus grand astronome de l'histoire a-t-il tué son élan de compagnie ? Saviez-vous qu'il neige du métal sur Vénus, qu'il y a des lacs souterrains sur Mars et des rivières de pétrole sur Titan ? L'espace est l’objet le plus grand, le plus ancien, le plus chaud, le plus froid et le plus étrange qu'un humain puisse étudier. Dans Magique Cosmos, Tim James nous emmène faire un tour de l'univers connu (et inconnu), tout en déballant les dernières théories sur ce qui s’y passe réellement. Il nous fait découvrir la science de l'espace dans ce qu'elle a de plus étrange. En nous guidant à travers la relativité d'Einstein, la mécanique quantique et la théorie des cordes, Magique Cosmos explore les recoins les plus déroutants de l’univers et s'attaque aux plus grands mystères auxquels nous sommes confrontés : de la vie extraterrestre au zodiaque ; des trous blancs aux trous de ver ; des quasars aux quarks. Tim James nous emmène aussi au-delà de notre système solaire, vers des exoplanètes qui pourraient abriter la vie et des planètes voyous. Il nous raconte la recherche d'intelligence extraterrestre, notamment la découverte de fossiles martiens dans la météorite Alan Hills, et le tentant "signal Wow" reçu par la Terre en 1973 - encore inexpliqué.

Download or read book Fictions of the Cosmos written by Frédérique Aït-Touati and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2011-10-14 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In today’s academe, the fields of science and literature are considered unconnected, one relying on raw data and fact, the other focusing on fiction. During the period between the Renaissance and the Enlightenment, however, the two fields were not so distinct. Just as the natural philosophers of the era were discovering in and adopting from literature new strategies and techniques for their discourse, so too were poets and storytellers finding inspiration in natural philosophy, particularly in astronomy. A work that speaks to the history of science and literary studies, Fictions of the Cosmos explores the evolving relationship that ensued between fiction and astronomical authority. By examining writings of Kepler, Godwin, Hooke, Cyrano, Cavendish, Fontenelle, and others, Frédérique Aït-Touati shows that it was through the telling of stories—such as through accounts of celestial journeys—that the Copernican hypothesis, for example, found an ontological weight that its geometric models did not provide. Aït-Touati draws from both cosmological treatises and fictions of travel and knowledge, as well as personal correspondences, drawings, and instruments, to emphasize the multiple borrowings between scientific and literary discourses. This volume sheds new light on the practices of scientific invention, experimentation, and hypothesis formation by situating them according to their fictional or factual tendencies.
Download or read book Les secrets du cosmos written by Jean Audouze and published by . This book was released on 2016-01-27 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pensait-on vraiment dans l’Antiquité que la Terre était plate et immobile ? Connaît-on l’âge de l’Univers ? Qu’ont encore à nous apprendre les comètes et les trous noirs ? Sans parler des lointaines exoplanètes qui révéleront peut-être un jour des mondes semblables au nôtre... A la croisée de la science et de l’histoire, Jean Audouze et Johan Kieken mettent les mystères du cosmos à la portée de tous. Ils composent un récit passionnant, marqué par d’incroyables découvertes et des esprits visionnaires comme Copernic, Newton, Einstein ou Gamow. Jusqu’à leurs successeurs qui, grâce aux sondes spatiales de dernière génération, aux très grands instruments au sol et aux progrès de la physique des particules, écrivent depuis cinquante ans un nouveau chapitre de l’exploration de l’Univers. La plus exaltante des aventures humaines, racontée par deux témoins, et acteurs, de ces bouleversements.

Download or read book Science and the Secrets of Nature written by William Eamon and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-06-30 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By explaining how to sire multicolored horses, produce nuts without shells, and create an egg the size of a human head, Giambattista Della Porta's Natural Magic (1559) conveys a fascination with tricks and illusions that makes it a work difficult for historians of science to take seriously. Yet, according to William Eamon, it is in the "how-to" books written by medieval alchemists, magicians, and artisans that modern science has its roots. These compilations of recipes on everything from parlor tricks through medical remedies to wool-dyeing fascinated medieval intellectuals because they promised access to esoteric "secrets of nature." In closely examining this rich but little-known source of literature, Eamon reveals that printing technology and popular culture had as great, if not stronger, an impact on early modern science as did the traditional academic disciplines.

Download or read book Secret Body written by Jeffrey J. Kripal and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2017-11-14 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This latest work by the renowned historian of religions Jeffrey Kripal crystallizes his twenty-five years of work on two aspects of the contemporary study of religion: the erotic expression of mystical experience and the rise of the paranormal in American culture. Combining elements of memoir, manifesto, and anthology (a Kripal Reader, as it were), Secret Body reveals Kripal's oeuvre not as a series of disconnected books but as a dynamic corpus with the potential to renew and reshape the study of religion. Kripal explains how this oeuvre came about with his trademark humor and honesty, answers his censors and critics, and lays the foundation for a future theory of religion grounded in the cosmic nature of consciousness as such. No one interested in the history of religion and the erotic dimension of mysticism can afford to overlook Kripal's latest, his definitive intellectual self-portrait.

Download or read book Soviet and Russian Lunar Exploration written by Brian Harvey and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-08-17 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells the story of the Soviet and Russian lunar programme, from its origins to the present-day federal Russian space programme. Brian Harvey describes the techniques devised by the USSR for lunar landing, from the LK lunar module to the LOK lunar orbiter and versions tested in Earth’s orbit. He asks whether these systems would have worked and examines how well they were tested. He concludes that political mismanagement rather than technology prevented the Soviet Union from landing cosmonauts on the moon. The book is well timed for the return to the moon by the United States and the first missions there by China and India.
