What If Everything in the Universe Was Made of Just One Thread? What If Einstein Got It Wrong? This Theory Challenges the Big Bang — and Everything That Follows. The Threads and Luxidoni Light Theory explained in plain English without math, jargon, or paradoxes, offers a radical new way to understand the universe.What if: Light isn't a wave or a particle, but spinning Luxidoni on a straight thread? Gravity isn't curved space, but rising thread tension? Black holes are not holes, but regions where energy stops spinning—so light vanishes? And what if no two protons or neutrons are ...

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.

A Journey Through the Universe is a grand tour of the most amazing celestial objects and how they fit together to build the cosmos. There's a whole universe out there.... Imagine you had a spacecraft capable of travelling through interstellar space. You climb in, blast into orbit, fly out of the solar system and keep going. Where do you end up, and what do you see along the way? The answer is: mostly nothing. Space is astonishingly, mind-blowingly empty.

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 ...

Jupiter: The King of the Heavens is a journey into the heart of the largest planet in our solar system. Jupiter is both protector and potential destroyer—its immense gravity shields the inner planets from cosmic threats, while its chaotic moons and powerful storms pose constant challenges. This book delves into the mysteries of the Great Red Spot, Jupiter’s storm that has raged for centuries, and the icy moon Europa, which hides a vast ocean beneath its frozen surface. What does Jupiter’s immense power tell us about responsibility, greatness, and the isolation that comes with such ...

Hör-Zeit in der Weite des Universums - Zeit für eine kurze Geschichte der Physik. Ist das Weltall grenzenlos oder hat es einen Anfang? Was bedeuten Raum und Zeit im unfassbaren Universum? Fragen, die schon Kinder beschäftigen, haben in der Geschichte der Physik zu aufregenden Theorien geführt. Von Aristoteles bis zur Quantenphysik sorgt Stephen Hawking in "Eine kurze Geschichte der Zeit" für Überblick.

This book is the result of my investigations into terraforming. This is the idea that in the future we could make other planets, for example Mars and Venus, habitable. I have tried to stick with the science around this subject, but sometimes where no scientific work has been created I've had to look to science fiction instead. However, at least 90% of this book has firm scientific grounding and I have included a bibliography with references to over 1,800 scientific research papers, books and other resources.

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.

This is a translation of Ibn al-Arabi's book of ad-Durratu-l-Bayda. We quoted from this book many times in the Single Monad of the Cosmos book series, and here we present a full translation with extensive annotation. In this short book, Ibn al-Arabi comments on the various names and descriptions of the Single Monad, relating all that to the concept of time and pre-existence of the World in the divine fore-knowledge, before it is brought into actual existence in the outward corporeal and incorporeal dimensions, via the White Pearl, one of the important symbolic names of the Single Monad. We ...

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.

Desde Einstein, o mundo não via um cientista tão reverenciado quanto Stephen Hawking. Com seu trabalho revolucionário em física e cosmologia, ele encantou milhões de leitores com a origem do universo e a natureza dos buracos negros, além de inspirar todos pela coragem e determinação que mostrou em sua luta contra a doença do neurônio motor. Agora, nesta reunião póstuma de seus trabalhos, podemos conhecer seus pensamentos a respeito das grandes questões que povoam nossas mentes desde os primórdios e daquelas mais prementes na atualidade.

Break free from paradoxes and discover a revolutionary vision of light, gravity, and the cosmos. Threads and Luxidoni Light Theory unveil a bold new model of the universe—logical, testable, and rooted in structure rather than abstraction. This is not another tweak to quantum mechanics or general relativity—it is a fundamental redefinition. In this first foundational volume, explore a unified theory where: Light is structured motion, not particles or waves. Gravity emerges from mechanical thread tension, not warped spacetime. Quantum behavior arises from the interaction of physical ...

The Dawn Of New Science summarizes the state of today’s physics. It covers major topics from the Big Bang, dark energy, dark matter, and antimatter to quarks, gravitons, and the Higgs boson. Moreover, this book describes not only what is known but also what is still beyond the grasp of today’s physicists. The author has identified a striking parallel between the formation of elementary particles and the structure of the human mind. Such a comparison allowed him to recognize several inconsistencies within the currently accepted models of the physical matter and to discover how these ...

Trained as a musician, amateur scientist William Herschel found international fame after discovering the planet Uranus in 1781. Though he is still best known for this finding, his partnership with his sister Caroline yielded groundbreaking work, including techniques that remain in use today. The duo pioneered comprehensive surveys of the night sky, carefully categorizing every visible object in the void. Caroline wrote an influential catalogue of nebulae, and William discovered infrared radiation.
