What is our place in it? How did we get here? We have long searched for the answers to questions such as these, and scientists are beginning to find some of the answers. In this beautifully illustrated book, Daniel Altschuler provides the reader with the elements to understand the questions and their answers as far as we know them. He explores subjects from physics and astronomy, to geology and paleontology. Along the way he touches on topics such as the search for life on other worlds and the hazards of asteroid impacts. Written in an engaging and readable style, readers will be intrigued by the surprising connections among the stars, our planet, and life itself. Daniel Altschuler is Director of the Arecibo Observatory in Arecibo, Puerto Rico, the site of the world's largest single-dish radio telescope.<br /><br /> Language A language of the resource Engels https://bib.cozmix.cloud/files/original/d5f7f8a81e53240cf9303fce1eee0ef1.png 7183117c6f909f3e659bad5e3fb41f4e Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Die vraag houdt ons al duizenden jaren bezig. Het zoeken naar een antwoord werd lange tijd overgelaten aan de verbeeldingskracht van filosofen, dorpsgekken en sciencefictionauteurs. De afgelopen twintig jaar is daar verandering in gekomen met de ontdekking van planeten rond andere sterren dan de zon. De zoektocht naar buitenaards leven staat nu in het middelpunt van de belangstelling. Sterrenkundigen aan de beste universiteiten ter wereld beweren met droge ogen dat ze binnen een paar jaar een tweede Aarde zullen vinden. Eens werden de planetenjagers beschimpt als zoekers naar 'kleine groene mannetjes'. Nu leiden ze een van de meest bloeiende vakgebieden in de wetenschap. Allen komen aan het woord. Een sterrenkundige die een planeet ontdekte met een zelfgemaakte telescoop vanaf een parkeerplaats. Een koppige ingenieur die vijfentwintig jaar lang afgewezen werd. Een depressieve student die uitgroeide tot de meest succesvolle planetenjager ter wereld. Ze begonnen als obscure dromers. Nu staan ze in de schijnwerpers. Misschien zullen ze de kleine groene mannetjes nooit vinden, maar de jacht staat garant voor spectaculaire verhalen. Sterrenkundige Lucas Ellerbroek (1984) was als kind al gefascineerd door planeten. Tijdens zijn promotie volgde hij van dichtbij de jacht op aliens met stijgende verbazing. In Planetenjagers beschrijft hij de geboorte van een nieuw vakgebied en de menselijke worstelingen die daarmee gepaard gaan. Ellerbroek is reeds bekend van De Wereld Leert Door en TEDx. Hij schrijft voor de wetenschapspagina van nrc Handelsblad en was tevens organisator en presentator van Nerd Nite. 'Duizenden planeten die op de Aarde lijken liggen, op honderden lichtjaren afstand, op ontdekking te wachten.

Het onderzoek naar buitenaards leven is een serieuze wetenschappelijke discipline geworden. Wat kunnen wij vanaf de aarde te weten komen over leven buiten onze planeet? Hoe zou dat leven er überhaupt uit kunnen zien? Zou de mens op onbekende planeten kunnen overleven?<br /><br /> In Hallo daar! neemt de vooraanstaande astrofysicus Ben Moore ons mee op een adembenemende reis: van het ontstaan en de evolutie van het leven op aarde naar mogelijk leven elders in de kosmos. Het is een zoektocht die zich beweegt tussen wetenschap en menselijk voorstellingsvermogen.<br /> Language A language of the resource Nederlands https://bib.cozmix.cloud/files/original/9c4a9341358e9dc52b92b782423f6052.jpg 60730e6746338c922fc85a2351709735 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Focusing on these developments, this fascinating book explores some of the most important problems in this field. It examines how planetary systems formed, and how water and the biomolecules necessary for life were produced. It then focuses on how life may have originated and evolved on Earth. Building on these two themes, the final section takes the reader on a search for life elsewhere in the Solar System. It presents the latest results of missions to Mars and Titan, and explores the possibilities of life in the ice-covered ocean of Europa. This interdisciplinary book is an enjoyable overview of this exciting field for students and researchers in astrophysics, planetary science, geosciences, biochemistry, and evolutionary biology<br /><br /> Preface; Part I.

This book analyses the results from the meteorite ALH84001, critically interprets the information from the Vikings 1 and 2 space probes to Mars and looks at the evidence of organic material in the Cosmos. The overwhelmingly most likely explanation and by far the simplest interpretation of all the findings is that life is a cosmic phenomenon seeding the Earth and Mars.

The esteem in which this monumental, lavishly illustrated work is universally held derives not only from its scholarship and creativity, but also from the rich literary style that exemplifies Thompson's great erudition in the physical and natural sciences, ancient and modern languages and the humanities.<br /> The book begins with studies of organic magnitude, the rate of growth, cellular form and structure, adsorption, and the forms of tissues, then examines a vast spectrum of life forms, and concludes with a comparison of related forms that leads to the theory of transformations.

Dyson Title A name given to the resource Origins of Life Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Cambridge University Press Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1999 Description An account of the resource How did life on earth originate? Did replication or metabolism come first in the history of life? In this book, Freeman Dyson examines these questions and discusses the two main theories that try to explain how naturally occurring chemicals could organize themselves into living creatures. The majority view is that life began with replicating molecules, the precursors of modern genes. The minority belief is that random populations of molecules evolved metabolic activities before exact replication existed. Dyson analyses both of these theories with reference to recent important discoveries by geologists and chemists. His main aim is to stimulate experiments that could help to decide which theory is correct.

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.

The Biological Universe provides a rich and colourful history of the attempts during the twentieth century to answer questions such as whether "biological law" reigns throughout the universe and whether there are other histories, religions, and philosophies outside those on Earth. Covering a broad range of topics, including the search for life in the solar system, the origins of life, UFOs, and aliens in science fiction, Steven J. Dick shows how the concept of extra-terrestrial intelligence is a world view of its own, a "biophysical cosmology" that seeks confirmation no less than physical views of the universe. This book will fascinate astronomers, historians of science, biochemists, and science fiction readers. Language A language of the resource Engels
