This book offers an amazing collection of analyzed images from the Red Planet, suggestive of ancestral life on Mars. It evidences possible microbial life and complex structures reminiscent of terrestrial fossils, a presentation of importance for astrobiologists and space lovers.
Take a tour of our Solar System, from rocky planets and gas giants to asteroids and comets. Informed by the latest space missions, this accessible guide explores our home system, its origin, distant exoplanets, and its cosmic context as a wellspring of life.
This book contains recent and important results on the deep study of the universe, with great impact on space-time research and the creation of future technologies. It will appeal to mathematicians, scientists, cosmologists, researchers, and postgraduate students.
This book uses AI to explore the cosmos’ biggest mystery: dark matter and dark energy. It identifies a cosmic engine fueled by dark energy and presents a solution to the cosmological constant problem that has troubled physicists for decades.
Tectonochronology
This book highlights new findings and methods in tectonochronology for the accurate dating of geological processes. It explores topics like mineral formation, dating deformation, and the influence of stress and fluid, with case studies from Chinese geology applicable worldwide.
This book sets forth the theory of optimal manoeuvring near a circular orbit for transfer and rendezvous problems. It presents simple analytical methods for real spacecraft and details effective methods for manoeuvre assessment to more accurately propagate collision hazards.
This book develops the statistical mechanics of planet and star formation in our solar system and exoplanetary systems. It presents a new statistical theory, a universal stellar law, and a new law for the distribution of planets in the solar system.
This book offers a statistical study and a dynamical approach to stellar systems. It explains and solves the closure problem for any velocity distribution, and applies these methods to describe the mixture of stellar populations in the Milky Way.
When Matter Became Mind
This book examines two of the greatest mysteries in science and philosophy: the origin of the universe and the nature of human consciousness. The author invites you to ponder the deep question “Why is there something rather than nothing?” and discover a new cosmic perspective.
What is our place in the universe? This book offers a journey through our evolving understanding of the cosmos, from ancient myths to modern physics. It explains quantum physics and relativity without mathematical baggage, revealing that our world is ultimately unpredictable.
Quantum gravity seeks to reveal physical laws beyond the Planck scale, in a background-free world where time and distance are lost. This book introduces a renormalizable theory that helps us understand the history of the universe, from its birth to the present.
