Book excerpt: "Much more is observed than Venus in The Evening Star, a smoothly written account of the Magellan spacecraft... Mr. Cooper is able to convey the sense of excitement felt by the engineers and scientists. But the star of the story is definitely Venus."--New York Times. "The anger and the arguments, the petty feuds, the politics of science, the grubbing for grants, make fascinating reading."--Nature. In size, density, and composition, Venus is almost identical to Earth, yet its nature and history turn out to be as different as close relatives sometimes can be. In The Evening Star Henry S. F. Cooper, Jr., veteran science and space reporter for the New Yorker, tracks the Magellan spacecraft that has been mapping Venus from orbit since August 1990. In eloquent, vivid prose, Cooper introduces us to the engineers who have nursed the spacecraft's fragile electronics and the scientists who have used the spacecraft's data to assemble a picture of this strange new world. An evocative narrative of the people who do science and the challenges that confront them, The Evening Star is an illuminating portrait not only of Venus's character but of Earth's as well, and of the place of the two siblings in the family of planets. "What makes this a particularly gripping story is that the author had extraordinary access to the project scientists. The result is a superb first-hand account of the Magellan scientists grapplingwith the bizarre geology of a world in the grip of a runaway greenhouse effect... Lucid, informative, and entertaining."--Air & Space. "A unique perspective on the Magellan program, seen through the eyes of the engineers and scientists working on it."--Christian Science Monitor.

Download or read book The Venus Cycle written by and published by Alpharabius. This book was released on 2020-02-24 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A different perspective… Starting in Sultanahmet—the historic peninsula of Istanbul—with an adventure, this novel takes you through a joyous journey in the depths of history. When you become aware that the content of the Sumerian tablet texts are not simply mythical but rather full of information shedding light unto truth, you will have a new perspective on life. This book makes us cognizant of the fact, in all its veracity, that the mistakes humanity has been continuing to make over the course of history, the wars, and the indifferent misuse and overuse of all the sources of nature are bringing the Earth to the edge of becoming an uninhabitable realm; and that the way to stop all this lies in the mercy of humanity’s mind and conscience. I finished reading my father’s book in a breath. Uçan Kuş If you have stumbled upon this book, beware! If you say, “I like stretching the boundaries of my imagination, and I am open to new information and perspectives.”, know that you have caught hold of a very special book, and start reading immediately. Do not read this book if you are not ready to extend the boundaries of your imagination, and if you are not ready for change. This book, which has been fictionalized by the author through his unlimited imagination and rich accumulation of information and knowledge, will be making you surf on the waves of the oceans of history, mythology, astrology, anthropology and sociology, eventually reaching at the current times. Well, it is at that moment that you will start to view the world in a different perspective. Haçe This is an original work of writing in which fantastic literature and myths mingle… This novel, which synthesizes the human history that is laden with mysteries and unknowns with fantastic elements, makes the reader question the validity of what she had been presuming as the truth, making her stupefied, and agitated. As you are strolling through the mysterious labyrinths of the history of humanity in this gripping adventure, which reminds us how little we know about the real story of the planet where we inhabit, your universe of thoughts will broaden, and you will start viewing the history and the myths with a completely different pair of spectacles. The doors to a different perspective on truth will be slit open in your minds… Gezegen

Book The Evening Star

Download or read book The Evening Star written by Faye Haskins and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-09-11 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Evening Star: The Rise and Fall of a Great Washington Newspaper is the story of the 129-year history of one of the preeminent newspapers in journalism history when city newspapers across the country were at the height of their power and influence. The Star was the most financially successful newspaper in the Capital and among the top ten in the country until its decline in the 1970s. The paper began in 1852 when the capital city was a backwater southern town. The Star’s success over the next century was due to its singular devotion to local news, its many respected journalists, and the historic times in which it was published. The book provides a unique perspective on more than a century of local, national and international history. The book also exposes the complex reasons for the Star’s rise and fall from dominance in Washington’s newspaper market. The Noyes and Kauffmann families who owned and operated the Star for a century play an important role in that story. Patriarch Crosby Noyes’ life and legacy is the most fascinating –a classic Horatio Alger story of the illegitimate son of a Maine farmer who by the time of his death was a respected newspaper publisher and member of Washington’s influential elite. In 1974 his descendants sold the once-great newspaper Noyes built to Joseph Allbritton. Allbritton and then Time, Inc. tried to save the Star but failed.

But before Nina and Averil can reach for the stars, they have to decide what they want. Will Averil stay? Will Nina leave? And what about the men who claim to love them? Does love heal, or will finding their happy ending mean giving up all they’ve ever wanted? Don't miss The Summer Getaway by Susan Mallery where one woman discovers the beauty in chaos in a poignant and heartwarming story about the threads that hold family together.

Download or read book Morningstar written by David Gemmell and published by Del Rey. This book was released on 2011-06-01 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There was nothing Jarek Mace wouldn't do for the right price—including becoming a hero. The Angostin hordes raged over the Southern Borders. Evil sorcery ruled, and the vampyre kings lived once more. The Highland people were in much need of a great hero. Jarek Mace needed nothing and no one—not even that bard Owen Odell, with whom he now traveled. But when Mace harassed the Angostins for his own purposes, he inadvertently aided the Highland people. And now he was being hailed as a hero, a legend, the great Morningstar returned. But Owen Odell knew the real man behind the people's tales. Mace was an outlaw, a bandit, a heartless thief. He was no savior of the people. He was no legend. Or was he? “It seems that every time I read a new David Gemmell novel it is better than the last—and Morningstar is no exception. . . . The main difference between the book and the myths it draws upon is that Gemmell includes some of the less savory characters who we suspect may have been at the basis of both Robin and Arthur.”—Starburst
