Includes such experiments as to see how close an object can get to a black hole without being sucked inside, to demonstrate what happens to an object that does get sucked in and to explore the possibility of traveling through a black hole. Contains a stunning 8-page color insert of images of black holes created by the author who is an award-winning graphic artist.

Their first intimation of our existence might well be a Super Bowl broadcast or a stray transmission from the Playboy channel. But, of course, they might seem equally strange to us. How strange? Their senses could be entirely different from ours—they might see in the infrared or “hear” radio waves. What would aliens look like? An intelligent octopus-like creature is certainly plausible. What about odd numbers of limbs—a three-legged alien with three arms and three eyes? What about an entire planet of immobile, silicon-based “trees” that communicate with each other via electrical signals? The Science of Aliens gets weirder still. Could a giant interstellar cloud be “alive” and intelligent? Could creatures live at extremely high pressures and temperatures? And which of these many possibilities would be similar enough to us that they could communicate with them, or they with us? Would they have any interest in abducting us? Would they want to have sex with us? In classic Pickover style, here is speculation at the far edge of knowledge—and beyond.

Clarke thinks big, but Cliff Pickover outdoes them both." In his newest book, Cliff Pickover outdoes even himself, probing a mystery that has baffled mystics, philosophers, and scientists throughout history--What is the nature of time? In Time: A Traveler's Guide, Pickover takes readers to the forefront of science as he illuminates the most mysterious phenomenon in the universe--time itself. Is time travel possible? Is time real? Does it flow in one direction only? Does it have a beginning and an end? What is eternity? Pickover's book offers a stimulating blend of Chopin, philosophy, Einstein, and modern physics, spiced with diverting side-trips to such topics as the history of clocks, the nature of free will, and the reason gold glitters. Numerous diagrams ensure readers will have no trouble following along. By the time we finish this book, we understand a wide variety of scientific concepts pertaining to time. And most important, we will understand that time travel is, indeed, possible.

Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Oxford University Press Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1995 Description An account of the resource How has the most celebrated scientific theory of our century held up under today's exacting scrutiny of planetary probes, radio astronomy, atomic clocks, and electronic super-computers? After eighty years, was Einstein right? Einstein's theory has proven crucial to our understanding of such recently discovered features of the cosmos as pulsars, quasars, black holes, and gravitational lenses. Clifford Will has written a lively and lucid chronicle of the triumph of one of the towering intellectual achievements of our century. This book is intended for general; students on courses in modern physics or relativity.

Title A name given to the resource Relativiteitstheorie voor de leek Description An account of the resource De algemene en speciale relativiteitstheorie (resp. uit 1905 en 1914-1916) van Albert Einstein betekende een ware revolutie in het wetenschappelijk denken. Het verhaal wil dat Einstein eens gezegd zou hebben: 'Er is buiten mij maar één man op de wereld die mijn relativiteitstheorie begrijpt en hij begrijpt haar nog verkeerd ook.' Dat is niet meer dan een legende, zoals wel blijkt uit het buitengewoon geslaagde boek van James A. Coleman. Men kan de leek misschien niet de finesses van de relativiteit uitleggen, maar hem wel een helder inzicht verschaffen in de essentie ervan. In de jaren vijftig en zestig verschenen tal van boeken over de relativiteitstheorie. Iemands opvoeding was niet volledig, zo vond men, als men niet enige kennis had van de belangrijkste natuurwetten. Uit de inhoud: De snelheid van het licht - Het verschil tussen de speciale en de algemene relativiteitstheorie - Massa neemt toe met snelheid - Massa en energie (E = mc2!) - De tijd - Het uitdijend heelal. Over de auteur: James A. Coleman was leraar wiskunde, fysicus aan de John Hopkins University en vanaf 1957 hoogleraar in de natuurkunde aan het American International College te Springfield, Massachusetts.

Title A name given to the resource Great calculations Description An account of the resource Science is based not only on observation and experiment, but on theory as well. As Einstein said, "Theory tells us what to measure." And theories are often crystallized into succinct calculations, like those made using Einstein's famous E = mc2. This book looks at fifty such great calculations, exploring how and why they were developed and assessing their impact on the history of science.As the author shows, many significant scientific calculations are quite simple and fairly easy to understand, even for readers will little math background. But their implications can be surprising and profound.For example, what links a famous comet and the cost of an annuity? Why do scientists claim there is "dark matter" in the universe if it can't be observed? How does carbon-based life on Earth depend on a quirk of nuclear physics? The answer to each question is an illuminating calculation.This accessible, engaging book will help you understand these breakthroughs and how they changed our view of life and the world.
