The Cosmos
Author: Craig G. Fraser
language: en
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
Release Date: 2006-07-30
Everyone knows that the universe is extremely old and extremely large. But how did scientists determine just how old and how large? How do astronomers know that there are upwards of 100 billion galaxies in the universe if the nearest one is over 40,000 light-years away? How do we know what the stars are made of? The answer is that our current knowledge of the universe has arisen from the work and ideas of scientists and philosophers over hundreds of years. While it's only been during the last several decades that scientists have had the technology and theories to really understand how the universe works, humans have thought about such issues for millennia. And the scientists who today are attempting to understand the most complex issues of the universe build upon the work and thought of the thinkers of the last hundreds of years. The Cosmos: A Historical Perspective provides an accessible introduction to the many ways humans have conceived of the universe throughout history and what ideas have led to our current understanding of the cosmos. The book examines: the Scientific Revolution and the new ideas of the Earth's place in the cosmos; the importance of nineteenth-century physics and chemistry in determining the compositions of stars; Einstein's Theory of Relativity and how it altered how scientists thought about gravity; and new, cutting-edge science that may alter, yet again, our conceptions of the cosmos, such as the inflationary universe and the possibility of dark energy. Jargon and mathematics is kept to a minimum, and the volume includes an annotated bibliography and a timeline. The Cosmos is an ideal introduction for students studying space science and the history and nature of the scientific understanding of the universe.
Hacking the Cosmos: How Reverse Engineering Uncovers Organization, Ingenuity and the Care of a Maker
A reverse engineering approach to nature with a focus on layers of enabling relationships draws from all pertinent areas of knowledge to illuminate the big questions about origins, meaning and purpose. Interwoven personal stories highlight the author's colourful journey to this perspective and demonstrate the applicability of such an approach.
REAL UNREAL COSMOS
REAL UNREAL COSMOS is a non-fiction, physics & cosmology-based book that talks about the Simulation Hypothesis i.e in simple words: The universe - our world being the artificial reality that is no different than a video game. We all have played a lot of video games, but what if we were in one? Ever wondered, Who & Where is God? the almighty creator that we pray and seek. Ever felt: Everything that happens with us - our victories, losses & luck isn't it already preplanned? The universe in which we live, eat, feel, love, lose, and achieve itself only doesn't seem to be real or authentic reality. Whatever we think or see is just an image that our brain manifests for us to see hence the overall universe we call reality is nothing other than a mere simulation or a fake world to be precise. We as humans have developed so far in technology that we created so much in this world. But......what if we're not creators but CREATIONS? Just like simply another character in a video game. So, Who is the Creator? REAL UNREAL COSMOS doesn't only just place facts behind myths like mere fantasies or probabilities but also provides substantial evidence for why our universe, our cosmos, our reality, and our existence are not real. Each chapter in the book provides a piece of evidence or a reason to believe why REALITY IS UNREAL and that's what is REAL UNREAL COSMOS for you. ABOUT THE AUTHOR : SAURABH GUPTA is a Mumbai-based, Indian 21 years old cosmology & physics enthusiast with a bachelor's in Information Technology. He has a love for gaming and it was a gaming session that brought upon the whole idea of this book. It took almost 3-5 years of research to complete his book. He is also an aspiring application developer. Since childhood, he always had a craving curiosity to learn, understand and manifest the universe. Due to his everlasting love for space and curiosity for the mysteries of the universe, he began researching cosmology and theoretical physics as early as when he was in 5th grade in order to find answers. He began studying the universe deeply; and when he was in 5th grade, his love and interest in space rose exponentially. What happened was, that he usually kept records of the several satellites and spacecraft and kept on tracking them. And on a particular night, he witnessed and observed the ISS (International Space Station) revolving around the earth through the sky and that was the moment that gave him chills about his existence and the existence of the universe around him.
