Y si existiera una cuarta dimensión espacial que no pudiéramos percibir? ¿Y si el tiempo, que nos parece una realidad implacable, no fuera más que una ilusión de nuestra mente? ¿Y si nuestro universo fuera sólo uno de los muchos que integran un complejo multiverso inflacionario? Estas preguntas, que parecieran derivadas de un guion de ciencia ficción o propias de un temperamento esotérico, constituyen algunos de los planteamientos más rigurosos de la física moderna. Y son la fascinante materia de este libro.

Ein Blick auf die Erforschung außerirdischen Lebens, die unser Verständnis des Kosmos verändert. Seit Tausenden von Jahren fragen sich die Menschen, ob sie allein im Weltall sind. Zum ersten Mal können wir nun auch die entsprechende Technologie nutzen, um das zu untersuchen. Die Frage nach anderem Leben im Universum sollte eine klare Antwort haben: ja oder nein. Aber wenn man versucht, anderswo Leben zu finden, stellt man fest, dass es nicht so einfach ist. Wie kann man es über kosmische Entfernungen hinweg finden? Was ist eigentlich Leben?

Reunimos en esta edición dos trabajos descatalogados. El primero es la introducción completa de Escohotado a su traducción de Principios matemáticos de la filosofía natural (1687) de Isaac Newton, que fue reducido a la mitad para la versión editada por Tecnos y aquí recuperamos íntegro, como obra que se sostiene por sí sola por su vasto análisis sobre la evolución de las ideas cosmológicas. El segundo lleva por título La antinaturaleza, originalmente publicado como epílogo de De physis a polis, y que constituye una de las primeras críticas de la posmodernidad y su negación ...

Earth: The Living Paradox invites readers to explore the extraordinary uniqueness of our planet. Earth’s ability to support life is a delicate balance, shaped by factors like the Moon’s influence on its tilt, tectonic plate movements, and the Great Oxygenation Event. This book examines Earth’s history and the coincidences that make life possible—while asking difficult questions about humanity’s stewardship of this fragile world. With insightful reflections on Earth’s past and future, this book raises the pressing question: Is Earth’s uniqueness the result of destiny, or just ...

A travelogue suffused with the wisdom of an ancient religious tradition, Humble Before the Void is a modern-day encounter between Western science and Buddhist philosophy. In this narrative, you'll discover the relationship between ancient Indian philosophical and spiritual tradition and modern science through the experiences of a select group of Tibetan monks.

An extraterrestrial colony, in some form, may already exist, just awaiting discovery. But the greatest impediment to such an important scientific discovery may not be technological, but political. No scientific endeavor can be launched without a budget, and matters of money are within the arena of politicians. Dr. Ben Bova explores some of the key players and the arguments waged in a debate of both scientific and cultural priorities.

The Structure and Composition of the Cosmos consists of two theories: The Quantum Aether Theory and the Euclidean Cosmos Theory, where the Quantum Aether Theory forms the basis for the Euclidean Cosmos Theory, which derives the composition of the cosmos. Taken together, the two theories provide a description of the cosmos and the universes that fits with the observations of our universe and makes it possible to understand how it all works. Starting from the zero-point field, which consists of an infinite electromagnetic field, the theory deduces the existence of the infinite cosmos, with ...

The Entangled Mind is the third volume of Wes Jamroz’s series on cosmic consciousness. In this book, the author discusses the state of modern physics. Today’s physics faces challenges on several fronts. These challenges are related to the nature of the big bang, elementary particles, dark matter, black holes, and some seemingly mysterious aspects of quantum mechanics. The author shows that physicists have to accept that “consciousness” is the fundamental parameter without which it is impossible to construct a consistent theory of matter. Furthermore, he demonstrates that the ...

Albert Einstein said, “Reality is an illusion, albeit a persistent one.” Bestselling author Stephen Hawley Martin agrees, and adds, “It’s actually an illusion in more ways than Einstein thought or imagined.” Many think a great awakening to what Einstein knew and Martin has uncovered will occur in 2024, but will it? Political and media forces are at work in an effort to keep humanity in the dark and themselves in power. Martin’s goal is for them to fail and for the public to awaken to an astonishing truth that will set them free. That’s why he’s written what he refers to as a...

Uranus: The Tilted Rebel invites readers to uncover the strange and unique qualities of the ice giant that spins on its side. Uranus’s extreme axial tilt and chaotic magnetic field make it an enigma in our solar system, while its methane-rich atmosphere gives the planet its distinct blue-green color. This book examines the planet’s unusual moons, its violent history, and the implications of Uranus’s eccentricities for our understanding of planetary dynamics. Uranus symbolizes nonconformity and individuality—an object of scientific intrigue and philosophical reflection.

Read by the author, Harry Cliff. 'As fascinating as its title suggests . . . Cliff recounts with vivid clarity the stories of some of the most striking oddnesses that have lit up the landscape of modern physics.' – Philip Pullman Newly discovered strangenesses could transform our understanding...

David Christian, historian and best-selling author of Origin Story, is renowned for pioneering the emerging discipline of Big History, which surveys the whole of the past. But with Future Stories, he casts his sharp analytical eye forward, offering an introduction to the strange world of the future, and a guide to what we think we know about it at all scales, from the predictive mechanisms of single-celled organisms and tomato plants to the merging of colossal galaxies billions of years from now.

The possibility of life elsewhere in the cosmos is one of the most profound subjects that human beings can ponder. Astrophysicist Andrew May gives an expert overview of our current state of knowledge, looking at how life started on Earth, the tell-tale ‘signatures’ it produces and how such signatures might be detected elsewhere in the solar system or on the many ‘exoplanets’ now being discovered by the Kepler and TESS missions.

L'universo racchiude numerosi segreti e potrebbe perfino nascondere dimensioni inimmaginabili: universi paralleli, geometrie curve e inghiottitoi tridimensionali sono alcuni degli straordinari concetti che di recente sono divenuti protagonisti della ricerca scientifica. Oggi, delle leggi del cosmo capiamo molto più di qualche anno fa, eppure abbiamo molte meno certezze sulla sua vera natura. Nel suo percorso di ricerca nel campo della cosmologia e della fisica, Lisa Randall ha dovuto abbattere alcuni paletti della scienza ufficiale.
