Book Eight Days on Planet Earth

Download or read book Eight Days on Planet Earth written by Cat Jordan and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A heart-wrenching romance full of twists that are sure to bring tears to readers’ eyes, from Cat Jordan, author of The Leaving Season. How long does it take to travel twenty light years to Earth? How long does it take to fall in love? To the universe, eight days is a mere blip, but to Matty Jones, it may be just enough time to change his life. On the hot summer day Matty’s dad leaves for good, a strange girl suddenly appears in the empty field next to the Jones farm—the very field in rural Pennsylvania where a spaceship supposedly landed fifty years ago. She is uniquely beautiful, sweet, and smart, and she tells Matty she’s waiting for her spaceship to pick her up and return her to her home planet. Of course she is. Matty has heard a million impossible UFO stories for each of his seventeen years: the conspiracy theories, the wild rumors, the crazy belief in life beyond the stars. When he was a kid, he and his dad searched the skies and studied the constellations. But all of that is behind him. Dad’s gone—but now there’s Priya. She must be crazy…right? As Matty unravels the mystery of the girl in the field, he realizes there is far more to her than he first imagined. And if he can learn to believe in what he can’t see: the universe, aliens…love…then maybe the impossible is possible, after all.

Book On the Prowl

    Book Details:
  • Author : Mark Hallett
  • Publisher : Columbia University Press
  • Release : 2020-06-02
  • ISBN : 0231545525
  • Pages : 434 pages

Download or read book On the Prowl written by Mark Hallett and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2020-06-02 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Big cats such as lions, tigers, leopards, and jaguars fascinate us like few other creatures. They are enduring symbols of natural majesty and power. Yet despite the magnetic appeal of the big cats, their origins and evolutionary history remain poorly understood—and human activity threatens to put an end to the big cats’ glory. On the Prowl is a fully illustrated and approachable guide to the evolution of the big cats and what it portends for their conservation today. Mark Hallett and John M. Harris trace the origins of these iconic carnivores, venturing down the evolutionary pathways that produced the diversity of big cat species that have walked the earth. They place the evolution and paleobiology of these species in the context of ancient ecosystems and climates, explaining what made big cats such efficient predators and analyzing their competition with other animals. Hallett and Harris pay close attention to human impact, from the evidence of cave paintings and analysis of ancient extinctions up to present-day crises. Their engaging and carefully documented account is brought to life through Hallett’s detailed, vivid illustrations, based on the most recent research by leading paleontologists. Offering a fresh look at the rise of these majestic animals, On the Prowl also makes a powerful case for renewed efforts to protect big cats and their habitats before it is too late.

Book Build Beyond Zero

    Book Details:
  • Author : Bruce King
  • Publisher : Island Press
  • Release : 2022-06-16
  • ISBN : 164283212X
  • Pages : 282 pages

Download or read book Build Beyond Zero written by Bruce King and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2022-06-16 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Net Zero” has been an effective rallying cry for the green building movement, signaling a goal of having every building generate at least as much energy as it uses. Enormous strides have been made in improving the performance of every type of new building, and even more importantly, renovating the vast and energy-inefficient collection of existing buildings in every country. If we can get every building to net-zero energy use in the next few decades, it will be a huge success, but it will not be enough. In Build Beyond Zero, carbon pioneers Bruce King and Chris Magwood re-envision buildings as one of our most practical and affordable climate solutions instead of leading drivers of climate change. They provide a snapshot of a beginning and map towards a carbon-smart built environment that acts as a CO2 filter. Professional engineers, designers, and developers are invited to imagine the very real potential for our built environment to be a site of net carbon storage, a massive drawdown pool that could help to heal our climate. The authors, with the help of other industry experts, show the importance of examining what components of an efficient building (from windows to solar photovoltaics) are made with, and how the supply chains deliver all those products and materials to a jobsite. Build Beyond Zero looks at the good and the bad of how we track carbon (Life Cycle Assessment), then takes a deep dive into materials (with a focus on steel and concrete) and biological architecture, and wraps up with education, policy and governance, circular economy, and where we go in the next three decades. In Build Beyond Zero, King and Magwood show how buildings are culprits but stand poised to act as climate healers. They offer an exciting vision of climate-friendly architecture, along with practical advice for professionals working to address the carbon footprint of our built environment.

Book The Stability and Performance Characteristics of an Earth oriented Gimbaled reaction wheel scanner Class of Spacecraft

Download or read book The Stability and Performance Characteristics of an Earth oriented Gimbaled reaction wheel scanner Class of Spacecraft written by H. Richard Freeman and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The performance characteristics of the general class of earth-oriented spacecraft controlled by a gimbaled-reaction-wheel-scanner attitude-control system are presented. Stability thresholds are analytically determined for this general class of vehicle in terms of its six system parameters. System stability in the presence of periodically varying pitch-momentum bias is considered, and a technique is established for the analysis of the general linearized equation set when it contains periodically time-varying coefficients. A comprehensive numerical study is performed, and the study concludes with an attempt at the analytic determination of stability thresholds for a system with a variational pitch-momentum bias. Also considered is system performance in the presence of a realistic disturbance torque model. A factor-of-merit function is established, and a method is presented that allows a potential user the means of choosing a "best" set of system parameters from a large six-dimensional array of possible parameters. Finally, this report concerns itself with the validation of the results obtained using a linearized time-invariant equation set. The validation procedure makes use of linear and non-linear digital computer simulations and the Floquet stability criterion technique.
