Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The longtime chronicler of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula . . . gives eloquent expression to death and the grieving process.” —Booklist Hailed by The New York Times Book Review as “a master . . . who makes the ordinary extraordinary, the unnamable unforgettable,” beloved author Jim Harrison returns with a masterpiece—a tender, profound, and magnificent novel about life, death, and finding redemption in unlikely places. Donald is a middle-aged Chippewa-Finnish man slowly dying of Lou Gehrig’s Disease. His condition deteriorating, he realizes no one will be able to pass on to his children their family history once he is gone. He begins dictating to his wife, Cynthia, stories he has never shared with anyone as around him, his family struggles to lay him to rest with the same dignity with which he has lived. Over the course of the year following Donald’s death, his daughter begins studying Chippewa ideas of death for clues about her father’s religion, while Cynthia, bereft of the family she created to escape the malevolent influence of her own father, finds that redeeming the past is not a lost cause. Returning to Earth is a deeply moving book about origins and endings, making sense of loss, and living with honor for the dead. It is among the finest novels of Harrison’s long, storied career, and confirms his standing as one of the most important American writers. “A deeply felt meditation on life and death, nature and God, this is one of Harrison’s finest works.” —Library Journal

Book excerpt: NOTE; NO FURTHER DISCOUNT ON THIS PRINT PRODUCT-- OVERSTOCK SALE -- Signficantly reduced list price The technologies for the reentry and recovery from space might change over time, but the challenge remains one of the most important and vexing in the rigorous efforts to bring spacecraft and their crews and cargo home successfully. Returning to Earth after a flight into space is a fundamental challenge, and contributions from the NASA Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate in aerodynamics, thermal protection, guidance and control, stability, propulsion, and landing systems have proven critical to the success of the human space flight and other space programs. Without this base of fundamental and applied research, the capability to fly into space would not exist.

Book excerpt: Inspired by insights gained in spaceflight, a NASA astronaut offers key lessons to empower Earthbound readers to fight climate change When Nicole Stott first saw Earth from space, she realized how interconnected we are and knew she had to help protect our planetary home. In Back to Earth, Stott imparts essential lessons in problem-solving, survival, and crisis response that each of us can practice to make change. She knows we can overcome differences to address global issues, because she saw this every day on the International Space Station. Stott shares stories from her spaceflight and insights from scientists, activists, and changemakers working to solve our greatest environmental challenges. She learns about the complexities of Earth's biodiversity from NASA engineers working to enable life in space and from scientists protecting life on Earth for future generations. Ultimately, Stott reveals how we each have the power to respect our planetary home and one another by living our lives like crewmates, not passengers, on an inspiring shared mission

Download or read book Beyond Earth written by Charles Wohlforth and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are at the cusp of a golden age in space science, as increasingly more entrepreneurs—Elon Musk, Richard Branson, Jeff Bezos—are seduced by the commercial potential of human access to space. But Beyond Earth does not offer another wide-eyed technology fantasy: instead, it is grounded not only in the human capacity for invention and the appeal of adventure, but also in the bureaucratic, political, and scientific realities that present obstacles to space travel—realities that have hampered NASA's efforts ever since the Challenger disaster. In Beyond Earth, the authors offer groundbreaking research and argue persuasively that not Mars, but Titan—a moon of Saturn with a nitrogen atmosphere, a weather cycle, and an inexhaustible supply of cheap energy—offers the most realistic, and thrilling, prospect of life without support from Earth.

This book was released on 2023-11-01 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Constance Victoria Briggs, who brought us The Moon’s Galactic History: A Look at the Moon’s Extraterrestrial Past and Its Connection to Earth, continues her exploration into our cosmic connections with her companion book, Earth’s Galactic History, and Its Extraterrestrial Connection. In this exciting new work, Briggs examines current research, theories and evidence linking Earth and extraterrestrials, past and present. Some of the topics that Briggs covers include whether the Earth was terraformed by advanced extraterrestrials; the theory that the Earth was seeded with life by otherworldly beings; possible extraterrestrial involvement in the creation of humans and more. She looks at evidence of humans being visited by beings from other worlds, and explores the idea that there was once a battle for Earth. She brings us signs, signals, messages, and clues showing evidence that extraterrestrials are trying to communicate with humans and takes us on a journey beneath the oceans where there is believed to be an extraterrestrial presence. Briggs also investigates the possibility that other worldly beings may be residing inside inner Earth. She delves into how extraterrestrials may be visiting Earth via stargates and portals using what she refers to as the “cosmic freeway.” Briggs also examines the possibility that there are extraterrestrials living among us, who they are and what their goals may be when it comes to Earth. Extraordinary events believed to be related to extraterrestrials are also revealed. Briggs takes a look at current research into the UFO/UAP/USO phenomena, detailing descriptions of these enigmatic objects and witness reports. She talks about the possibility of there being an authoritative hierarchy within our galaxy that may include other-worldly federations and groups that are responsible for a galactic community. In the end, Briggs ponders humankind’s spacefaring future, looking at the latest information and trends on space travel and what we have to look forward to by way of our expansive universe.
