Everywhere light goes, It has found that darkness is already there. Darkness is the natural state of the universe. For a star to be born, it takes an astounding number of possibilities to become a reality. From this unlikely alignment, we now have trillions of stars! Thankfully stars would progress to give us light, life, and an observable universe. No one knows how many stars exist, but we will tour a handful of the most famous in our known universe. Sit back and enjoy the world of outer space that spreads before you. Each constellation and luminary has a story that you won’t want to miss!

When Stephen Hawking died, he was widely recognized as the world's best physicist, and even its smartest person. He was neither. In Hawking Hawking, science journalist Charles Seife explores how Stephen Hawking came to be thought of as humanity's greatest genius. Hawking spent his career grappling with deep questions in physics, but his renown didn't rest on his science. He was a master of self-promotion, hosting parties for time travelers, declaring victory over problems he had not solved, and wooing billionaires.

In Fit for a Purpose, biochemist Fazale Rana fearlessly pushes the boundaries of the anthropic principle beyond cosmology. In the process, Rana invites the listener to discover the world of chemical and biochemical fine-tuning, as well as to contemplate this question: If the universe is fit for life, and biochemical systems are fit for their role in life, is it possible that everything is “fit for a purpose”?

Story1
Eclipses have stunned, frightened, emboldened, and mesmerized people for thousands of years. They were recorded on ancient turtle shells discovered in the Wastes of Yin in China, on clay tablets from Mesopotamia and on the Mayan "Dresden Codex". They are mentioned in Homer's Iliad and Odyssey and at least eight times in the Bible. Columbus used them to trick people, while Renaissance painter Taddeo Gaddi was blinded by one. Sorcery was banished within the Catholic Church after astrologers used an eclipse to predict a pope's death.

The science behind the debate raging in modern physics over the disconcerting and uncomfortable realization that just maybe there is, as astronomer Fred Hoyle put it, some sort of "superintellect that has monkeyed with the physics". Written with the non-scientist in mind, this exploration of the big bang, Schroedinger's cat, the chaos of 9/11, the complexity of the mimic octopus and the blister beetle, and the strong anthropic principle is accessible to anyone bright enough to be interested.

In The Unobservable Universe, visionary scientist and engineer Scott M. Tyson successfully unravels cosmology from the level of rocket science and brings it down to Earth, demystifying the universe in terms that laymen can comprehend and enjoy, splitting atoms but not hairs on this magical mystery tour of the outback of time and space.

Indeed, while the physical laws and origins of the universe can be endlessly complex, even Einstein once mused that they could be explained simply enough to be grasped by nonspecialists.

The Earth, that trusty old spinning marble we call home, isn't a sphere at all. No, according to some, it is flat as a pancake (or a pizza, if we're being generous). Yet for thousands of people, this is reality – or at least their version of it. The Flat Earth phenomenon isn't new. It has ancient roots, woven into the cosmologies of civilizations long past. But what's fascinating is how, in a time when we can send rovers to Mars, carry pocket supercomputers, and live-stream cat videos from space stations, this belief has not only persisted but thrived.

Com ilustrações criativas e texto lúcido e bem-humorado, Hawking desvenda desde os mistérios da física de partículas até a dinâmica que movimenta centenas de milhões de galáxias por todo o universo.

How big is the universe? In the early twentieth century, scientists took sides. One held that the entire universe was contained in the Milky Way galaxy. Their champion was the strong-willed astronomer Harlow Shapley. Another camp believed that the universe was so vast that the Milky Way was just one galaxy among billions—the view that would prevail, proven by the equally headstrong Edwin Hubble.
