Book excerpt: In ""Neon Nebula,"" a dazzling space opera unfolds against the backdrop of a cosmic phenomenon that bathes entire star systems in ever-shifting colors. Dr. Aria Vega, an unconventional astrophysicist, discovers an ancient alien artifact that holds the key to unraveling the nebula's centuries-old mystery. This scientific curiosity proves to be far more than it seems, leading Aria and her diverse crew of misfits on a perilous journey through a technicolor expanse of space. As they navigate treacherous anomalies and outsmart rival factions, Aria and her companions—including a roguish pilot, a sentient AI, and a genetically enhanced empath—must confront their inner demons while racing towards the heart of the Neon Nebula. Their quest challenges not only their understanding of the universe but also their very perception of reality. This interstellar adventure blends cutting-edge astrophysics with the wonder of classic science fiction, exploring themes of discovery, identity, and human potential against a mesmerizing cosmic backdrop that pushes the boundaries of imagination.

Download or read book Literature 1980 Part 1 written by Siegfried Böhme and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 949 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Astronomy and Astrophysics Abstracts, which has appeared in semi-annual volumes since 1969, is de voted to the recording, summarizing and indexing of astronomical publications throughout the world. It is prepared under the auspices of the International Astronomical Union (according to a resolution adopted at the 14th General Assembly in 1970). Astronomy and Astrophysics Abstracts aims to present a comprehensive documentation of literature in all fields of astronomy and astrophysics. Every effort will be made to ensure that the average time interval between the date of receipt of the original literature and publication of the abstracts will not exceed eight months: This time interval is near to that achieved by monthly abstracting journals, com pared to which our system of accumulating abstracts for about six months offers the advantage of greater convenience for the user. I, 1980; some older Volume 27 contains literature published in 1980 and received before August literature which was received late and which is not recorded in earlier volumes is also included. We acknowledge with thanks contributions to this volume by Dr. J. Bouska, Prague, who surveyed journals and publications in Czech and supplied us with abstracts in English.

Download or read book Planetary Nebulae written by D.E. Osterbrock and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This written account of the Symposium on Planetary Nebulae was prepared from manuscripts submitted by the participants. Nearly every paper that was presented at the meeting is reproduced here, in either complete or abbreviated form. The dis cussions have been somewhat shortened and rearranged, but we have tried to preserve the essential points and the general tenor of the exchanges. Participants who spoke in the discussion were asked immediately for written remarks, which were then edited, reproduced, and circulated at the meeting by the highly effective local Secretariat organized by Dr Perek. In addition, notes of the discussion taken by Mrs Edith F. Swan and by the undersigned were used. We wish to thank all the authors for their unusually good cooperation. We are especially grateful to Dr Minkowski, who kindly provided many excellent repro ductions of Mount Wilson and Palomar photographs, mostly taken by himself, of various planetary nebulae. We are particularly indebted to Mrs Swan, who attended the Symposium, made notes on the papers and discussions as they occurred, and did much of the checking and editing of the manuscripts. In addition, we are very grateful to Mrs Evelyn Seaver, who also did much of the checking, editing, and retyping of manuscripts, and to Dr B.L. Webster, Miss Rebecca Todd, Mr Joseph Tapscott, and Mr Dennis Schatz, who provided excellent assistance in the preparation of this volume.

Download or read book Planetary Nebulae written by Stuart R. Pottasch and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to give a detailed description of the planetary nebulae including the relevant astronomical observations and their interpretation. Considerable attention is given to the evolution of these objects as well as to their physical characteristics. I t is hoped that the book be useful to both advanced research workers and to students with some background in astronomy. In this regard, the book should serve as a text as well as a reference work. The many tables included are expected to be useful for both purposes. The references are generally not included in the text except for historical purposes in an effort to improve readability. References are given at the end of each chapter together with sufficient text to describe their content. No attempt has been made to make the list of references complete; on the contrary it has generally been limited to the most recent literature on the subject which in turn refers to earlier research. Again, exceptions have been made for references of historical interest.

Download or read book Necroscope Avengers written by Brian Lumley and published by Tor Books. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The packed cruise ship is a terrific nesting ground for a Lord and Lady of the Wamphyri on the run from E-Branch and the new Necroscope, Jake Cutter. By the time the ship is reported missing, the few beings still living on board will no longer be human . . . and the Wamphyri will be long fled to their next conquest. Korath, the vampire who lurks in Jake Cutter's mind, is determined to gain control of Jake's life, and Jake is equally determined not to let him have it. But to win this struggle Jake must confide in Ben Trask-and Trask, the head of E-Branch, is likely to want Jake dead the minute he learns of Jake's intrusive passenger! The spore garden planted under London by the third Wamphyri, Lord Swartz, is bearing bitter fruit indeed as a mysterious sleeping sickness-with a vampiric taint-slowly spreads among the population of Great Britain. E-Branch action teams have more on their plates than they can handle. They must locate terrorists who threaten the world with nuclear homicide; permanently close the Gate between the Wamphyri world and Earth; analyze the spore plague; and locate and destroy the three Wamphyri. In Brian Lumley's Necroscope: Avengers, even the powers of Harry Keogh, the original Necroscope, summoned from the Great Beyond via the combined powers of E-Branch's strongest agents, may not be enough to defeat the monsters who have brought Earth to the brink of total destruction. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Download or read book Planetary Astrobiology written by Victoria Meadows and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2020-06-16 with total page 593 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are we alone in the universe? How did life arise on our planet? How do we search for life beyond Earth? These profound questions excite and intrigue broad cross sections of science and society. Answering these questions is the province of the emerging, strongly interdisciplinary field of astrobiology. Life is inextricably tied to the formation, chemistry, and evolution of its host world, and multidisciplinary studies of solar system worlds can provide key insights into processes that govern planetary habitability, informing the search for life in our solar system and beyond. Planetary Astrobiology brings together current knowledge across astronomy, biology, geology, physics, chemistry, and related fields, and considers the synergies between studies of solar systems and exoplanets to identify the path needed to advance the exploration of these profound questions. Planetary Astrobiology represents the combined efforts of more than seventy-five international experts consolidated into twenty chapters and provides an accessible, interdisciplinary gateway for new students and seasoned researchers who wish to learn more about this expanding field. Readers are brought to the frontiers of knowledge in astrobiology via results from the exploration of our own solar system and exoplanetary systems. The overarching goal of Planetary Astrobiology is to enhance and broaden the development of an interdisciplinary approach across the astrobiology, planetary science, and exoplanet communities, enabling a new era of comparative planetology that encompasses conditions and processes for the emergence, evolution, and detection of life.

Download or read book Deadly Jobs written by A.R. Knight and published by Black Key Books. This book was released on 2023-01-09 with total page 1508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Get in. Get out. Get paid. That's the motto for this squad of hardened mercenaries, one they're about to test as they get sent on a secret mission to a backwater world teeming with unexpected enemies. From jungle swamps to deadly caves, secret bases to burning starships, Sever Squad takes the fight across the galaxy in this complete collection. Drop Zone - Book One When a strange rescue signal comes in, Sever Squad gets the call. They're tough, reckless, and one carries a giant hammer. Except this mission's different: the signal's calling for help, but the planet's deserted. Oh, and Sever's home ship can't wait for them. If they want to get off-world with their rescue, they'll have to find their own way to fly. For Aurora and the rest of Sever, though, the mission means serious cash. A chance to get out of the grind, find something that doesn't require getting lit up by lasers every other day. So the choice is obvious: load up, and move out. Helix Strike - Book Two Bashing their way into a fog-shrouded city, Aurora and her squad need to find the VIP and a way off-world before too many lasers burn through their armor. Getting the squad back together for the grand getaway proves tougher than expected, though, when Sever finds the secret behind it all. Hope's Debt - Book Three After leaving Dynas with secrets and suspicions, Sever Squad abandons their employer and makes for a secluded mining world to figure out what's next. An offer to help remove some stubborn locals serves as a paycheck, one that quickly turns sour when Sever realizes those same locals aren't exactly the deadly killers they're supposed to be. Trading conscience for cash is nothing new, but the stakes jump up when Sever's knowledge makes it to the wider galaxy and draws the wrong kind of attention. What should have been a chance to reset turns into a desperate fight for survival for both Sever and the miners as overwhelming force floods the world and threatens the mercenaries with total annihilation. Home Front - Book Four After breaking open a sinister secret and deserting DefenseCorp, Sever Squad's been invited back, providing they give up the little girl they've sworn to protect. Going home isn't easy, but Sever needs new gear, medical attention, and a hot meal after their fight on Wexer. At first, the Nautilus brings back memories, from familiar faces to friendly concourses. It's almost enough to let Sever relax. Almost. Grim Tide - Book Five With a team member taken hostage and a child in danger, Sever Squad pursues a deadly agent across the galaxy. Having left their command ship in ruins, the traitorous agents Vana and Renard look for the final missing piece to create a devastating new weapon. That piece lies inside a young girl's cells, a child hidden away on a watery, high-tech world with no interest in a war. Sever Squad doesn't have a choice. Vana and Renard took their rookie, and Sever's going to do anything they can to get him back, even if it means sneaking heavy weapons onto a planet with no taste for them. The only question is whether Sever can save both their friend and the child before the agents take them both. Fury Storm - Book Six After licking their wounds, Sever Squad gets a tip telling them to pick up their rifles, their swords, and their ship: the last chance to stop a super soldier project has arrived. Aurora and the other Severs head out to make good on her promise to catch and, if necessary, kill the agent behind it all. That agent, though, has friends. Sever's old employers see promise in the super soldiers, a chance to take firm control over the galaxy. To get to the agent, Sever's going to have to get through their former friends. Aurora always believed in fighting for cash, but nobody's paying Sever this time. This last mission? It's personal.
