PDF-(BOOK)-Cycles of Time: An Extraordinary New View of the Universe

From the bestselling author of The Emperors New Mind and The Road to Reality a groundbreaking book that provides new views on three of cosmologys most profound questions What if anything came before the Big Bang What is the source of order in our universe What is its ultimate futureCurrent understanding of our universe dictates that all matter will eventually thin out to zero density with huge black holes finally evaporating away into massless energy Roger Penroseone of the most innovative mathematicians of our timeturns around this predominant picture of the universes heat death arguing how the expected ultimate fate of our accelerating expanding universe can actually be reinterpreted as the Big Bang of a new oneAlong the way to this remarkable cosmological picture Penrose sheds new light on basic principles that underlie the behavior of our universe describing various standard and nonstandard cosmological models the fundamental role of the cosmic microwave background and the key status of black holes Ideal for both the amateur astronomer and the advanced physicistwith plenty of exciting insights for eachCycles of Time is certain to provoke and challengeIntellectually thrilling and accessible this is another essential guide to the universe from one of our preeminent thinkers.

A sweeping tour of the infrared universe as seen through the eyes of NASA\'s Spitzer Space TelescopeAstronomers have been studying the heavens for thousands of years, but until recently much of the cosmos has been invisible to the human eye. Launched in 2003, the Spitzer Space Telescope has brought the infrared universe into focus as never before. Michael Werner and Peter Eisenhardt are among the scientists who worked for decades to bring this historic mission to life. Here is their inside story of how Spitzer continues to carry out cutting-edge infrared astronomy to help answer fundamental questions that have intrigued humankind since time immemorial: Where did we come from? How did the universe evolve? Are we alone?In this panoramic book, Werner and Eisenhardt take readers on a breathtaking guided tour of the cosmos in the infrared, beginning in our solar system and venturing ever outward toward the distant origins of the expanding universe. They explain how astronomers use the infrared to observe celestial bodies that are too cold or too far away for their light to be seen by the eye, to conduct deep surveys of galaxies as they appeared at the dawn of time, and to peer through dense cosmic clouds that obscure major events in the life cycles of planets, stars, and galaxies.Featuring many of Spitzer\'s spectacular images, More Things in the Heavens provides a thrilling look at how infrared astronomy is aiding the search for exoplanets and extraterrestrial life, and transforming our understanding of the history and evolution of our universe.
