In 1990 and 1992 a NASAled team of scientists from the COBE project changed the way we view the universe They showed that the microwave radiation that fills the universe must have come from the Big Bang itselfeffectively proving this theory beyond any doubt It was one of the greatest scientific findings of our generation perhaps of all timeIn this noholdsbarred account COBEs originator and Project Scientist John Mather and science writer John Boslough provide the intimate and startling details of how big science is done today They tell of the discovery of the cosmic background radiation and of the fifteenyear struggle to design build and launch the COBE satellite including the unwelcome controversy when one team member breached the projects publication policy and stepped into the limelight alone The Very First Light presents a rarely seen inside account of the world of big science where cooperation and competition battle for supremacy At the height of the project more than 1500 scientists engineers designers and support staff worked on the spacecraft The project was especially difficult because two of the three instruments were cooled to within a few degrees of absolute zeroWhen the Challenger exploded in 1986 the shuttle program was grounded indefinately leaving the COBE with no route to space The last available Delta rocket was approved for the mission but now the team had to slash the spacecrafts fiveton weight in half The story of this feat provides a remarkable behindthescenes look into the highstakes frenetic world of a big science project and NASA itself The Very First Light is a portrait of science no serious reader will want to miss. 5 billion years to the beginning of our Solar System How is this time travel possible Many thousands of small bodies orbit the Sun in the asteroid belta large region between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter They formed at the same time and in similar e 9 Oct. 2012 .

The fight for the future of the city street between pedestrians, street railways, and promoters of the automobile between 1915 and 1930.Before the advent of the automobile, users of city streets were diverse and included children at play and pedestrians at large. By 1930, most streets were primarily a motor thoroughfares where children did not belong and where pedestrians were condemned as jaywalkers. In Fighting Traffic, Peter Norton argues that to accommodate automobiles, the American city required not only a physical change but also a social one: before the city could be reconstructed for the sake of motorists, its streets had to be socially reconstructed as places where motorists belonged. It was not an evolution, he writes, but a bloody and sometimes violent revolution. Norton describes how street users struggled to define and redefine what streets were for. He examines developments in the crucial transitional years from the 1910s to the 1930s, uncovering a broad anti-automobile campaign that reviled motorists as road hogs or speed demons and cars as juggernauts or death cars. He considers the perspectives of all users--pedestrians, police (who had to become traffic cops), street railways, downtown businesses, traffic engineers (who often saw cars as the problem, not the solution), and automobile promoters. He finds that pedestrians and parents campaigned in moral terms, fighting for justice. Cities and downtown businesses tried to regulate traffic in the name of efficiency. Automotive interest groups, meanwhile, legitimized their claim to the streets by invoking freedom--a rhetorical stance of particular power in the United States. Fighting Traffic offers a new look at both the origins of the automotive city in America and how social groups shape technological change. 210,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 miles. (22 zeros).
