Our endeavour to understand the universe using observation and experiment - what we now call science - has yielded incredible results and has even revolutionised our lives. It has allowed us to study the basic building blocks of the colourful world around us: the chemical elements. We have even been able to travel back in time and tell the story of the elements from its very beginning. It is a story which stretches over billions of years - a timescale that defeats our imagination. This book takes us on a brief journey through space and time to tell the story of the creation of the chemical elements. We will journey from the beginning of the universe to the evolution of stars and their final death. We will also take a look at one of the most important and beautiful achievements in the history of science: the periodic table of the elements. The periodic table embodies the amazing order that exists among the elements, and its story is the story of discovering this order.
The field of planetary biology and chemical evolution draws together experts in astronomy, paleobiology, biochemistry, and space science who work together to understand the evolution of living systems. This field has made exciting discoveries that shed light on how organic compounds came together to form self-replicating molecules-the origin of life. This volume updates that progress and offers recommendations on research programs-including an ambitious effort centered on Mars-to advance the field over the next 10 to 15 years. The book presents a wide range of data and research results on these and other issues: The biogenic elements and their interaction in the interstellar clouds and in solar nebulae. Early planetary environments and the conditions that lead to the origin of life. The evolution of cellular and multicellular life. The search for life outside the solar system. This volume will become required reading for anyone involved in the search for life's beginnings-including exobiologists, geoscientists, planetary scientists, and U.S. space and science policymakers.
aUI The Language of Space is a symbolic, universal language designed to "heal the human mind from the slavery of slogans of hate into a peace through understanding, a cosmic consciousness of harmony with the universal Spirit." Whether you consider this an artificial or constructed language or cosmically inspired you will no doubt quickly see the genius of the 31 graphic symbols that make up aUI (space -mind - sound). Each symbol representing a concept and combined together to interpret and express feelings and concepts both simple and complex. Consider the nearly hundred words that describe "snow" in the Icelandic language and you can easily understand the concept of many more variations of concepts of "time", "space", "life" than we may have available in the English language. Consider among our popular culture from the series Game of Thrones and it constructed language, there is no word for "thank you " or "forgiveness" in Dothraki. The Cosmic Communication Foundation headed by Andrea Weigart Patten (daughter of the late Dr. John W. Weilgart) offer this Edition of Cosmic Elements of Meaning for the first time available via modern print-on-demand technology. This edition was prepared from an original printed copy of the 1975 edition by Robert Zumberge.
This book is based on lectures given by the author at a number of university with the aim of introducing Cosmology to students and teachers at the graduate level. Here, cosmology is explained within the framework of Newtoroian gravity and mechanics thereby making it readily understood to students of Physics and Mathematics at the undergraduate level.
While there have been many books on cosmology and galactic and stellar evolution in which abundance analysis of astrophysical objects has played some part, this book is the first one for several years where specialists in the various relevant fields discuss the basis and implications of the subject as a whole. The major aim of the book is to bring together the results from high redshift studies and galactic studies in a coherent way and to cover relevant aspects of nuclear and atomic physics.
A leading astronomer takes readers behind the scenes of the thrilling science of stellar archaeology and explains how sections of the night sky are "excavated" in the hunt for extremely rare, 13-billion-year-old relic stars and how this quest reveals tantalizing new details about the origins and evolution of the cosmos.
