Keine Kultur kann existieren ohne eine Erzählung von den Ursprüngen. Der italienische Teilchenphysiker und Bestsellerautor Guido Tonelli erzählt in "Genesis" die große Geschichte von der Entstehung unseres Universums, angefangen vom Big Bang und den allerersten Augenblicken danach bis zu unserem Sonnensystem. Sein Buch ist der meisterhafte Versuch, aus dem Wissen der heutigen Astrophysik heraus eine Erzählung von den Ursprüngen zu entwickeln, die nie die Grenzen der Wissenschaft verlässt, sich aber an den großen Mythen messen lassen kann.

Eclipses: What Everyone Needs to Know helps explain the profound differences between a 99.99 percent partial eclipse and true totality, and inform listeners how to experience this most beautiful natural phenomenon successfully. It covers eclipses of sun, moon, and other astronomical objects, and their applications in science, as well as their role in history, literature, and myth. It describes the phenomena to expect at a solar eclipse and the best ways to record them - by camera, video, or by simple handmade experiments. 

Is time travel possible? What does it mean to say the universe is fine-tuned? Could our universe be fake? Or, if it is real, is it part of a multiverse? In an attempt to solve such mysteries, leading experts attempt to break the world down to its smallest particles and build it back up - to understand the universe by understanding the atom. In this compelling audio course, Dr. Robert Lawrence Kuhn, creator and host of the PBS series Closer to Truth, examines the riddles of the universe with 13 luminaries in physics, cosmology, astronomy, philosophy, mathematics, and chemistry.

How did our universe begin, and when and how will it end? Is the universe infinitely expanding, as the theory of cosmic inflation insists? If alien life exists, what are the chances of our encountering it, and what would such an encounter mean for humanity? Now, you can sit in on conversations with the world’s leading cosmology experts as they answer these and many other fascinating questions.

Scientists have been searching for aliens in our solar system and beyond, but have not yet found evidence that life exists beyond Earth. SETI, the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence, has been scanning the stars for alien radio beacons for 50 years. Radio and TV broadcasts have been leaking from Earth’s atmosphere for over a century, and these traveling time capsules could eventually reach a broader audience than ever imagined. Neil and Lynne review the methods used to locate aliens and discuss what to do if you’re ever abducted.

In the early 17th century, Galileo broke free from the hold of ancient Platonic and Aristotelian philosophy. He drastically changed the framework through which we view the natural world when he asserted that we should base our theory of reality on what we can observe rather than pure thought. In the process, he invented what we would come to call science. This set the stage for all the breakthroughs that followed - from Kepler to Newton to Einstein.

Sarah Cruddas has been looking to the skies her entire life. Her childhood was spent staring at the moon and hearing stories of the space race, and she worked in a fruit factory to fund her love of the subject. Her subsequent career studying astrophysics and becoming a television host and space journalist has seen her report on space exploration and chase launches across the world. In Look Up Sarah explains why she has always been a passionate advocate for why space should matter - to everyone.

How did we get here? What was here before us? In this informative book, Cosmic Evolution, written by Ramesh Nathan, founder of the Church of Illuminism, explore the concept of evolution. Evolution is very different from what we have been taught. In the modern world, we relate evolution to a physical process and growth. This is incorrect. The concept of evolution in reality has only to deal with the soul, with the consciousness. The evolution of mankind is the evolution of mankind's consciousness.

Book 1: is an inquiry and review of humanity's continual effort to gain hold of its legacy which was willed by God and passed on by many great souls.

Evolution and creation are in a spiritual battle. Evolution scientists ignore, dismiss, and unequivocally reject creation out of hand - "It is not science or fact as evolution is," they say. However, Nullifying God shows that random Darwinian evolution does not have the direct evidence required to support the claim. Not only that, but it provides contrary evidence that evolution is biologically impossible. 

Letters from the Universe presents a new, simplistic framework for this vast expanse we exist in. By understanding the cosmos and knowing how everything began, we can emulate the ways of the universe and orchestrate a beautiful symphony of life, love, and happiness.

"The Accelerating Universe is not only an informative book about modern cosmology. It is rich storytelling and, above all, a celebration of the human mind in its quest for beauty in all things." (Alan Lightman, author of Einstein's Dreams)

Rope Hypothesis and Thread Theory is based on Bill Gaede's Rope Hypothesis. We apply the rope model to questions such as, what is gravity, light, electricity, and magnetism? What is thermodynamics? What is the difference between light and sound? What is plasma? How do batteries, antennas, and cathode ray tubes work? What is the difference between fundamental and composite objects? Does size scale make a difference when it comes to motion, friction, bending, stretching, and tension?

In October of 2016, our estimate of how many galaxies there are in the universe jumped from 200 billion to 2 trillion, which begs the question: is there life outside of our planet? And if so, what does that do to our theology? In Alien Theology, Pastor Bradley enters into a conversation that started before Christ and considers the possibility of alien life in light of Scripture, science, and logic.

Although it is widely understood that energy and water are the world’s two most critical resources, their vital interconnections and vulnerabilities are less often recognized. This farsighted audiobook offers a new, holistic way of thinking about energy and water - a big picture approach that reveals the interdependence of the two resources, identifies the seriousness of the challenges, and lays out an optimistic approach with an array of solutions to ensure continuing sustainability.

Were Copernicus, Galileo, and Kepler wrong? Does Earth orbit the Sun, or does the Sun orbit Earth? For centuries, everyone thought the science was settled, but today the accepted cosmology is being challenged by writers, speakers, and movie producers who insist that science took a wrong turn in the 17th century. These new geocentrists claim not only that Earth is the center of our planetary system but that Earth is motionless at the very center of the universe.

Nibiru does exist, but will it be the sign of the Son of Man as mentioned in the Bible. A description of what will happen to the Earth and what we should do about it are discussed in this book.
