Showing results for "Daniel" in Astronomy & Space Science

In the first book to critically assess the major consequences of space activities from their origins in the 1940s to the present and beyond, Daniel Deudney argues in Dark Skies that the major result of the "Space Age" has been to increase the likelihood of global nuclear war, a fact conveniently obscured by the failure of recognize that nuclear-armed ballistic missiles are inherently space weapons.

A fun-filled discussion of the big, mind-blowing, unanswered questions about the Universe. In each episode, Daniel Whiteson (a Physicist who works at CERN) and Jorge Cham (a popular online cartoonist) discuss some of the simple but profound questions that people have been wondering about for thousands of years, explaining the science in a fun, shorts-wearing and jargon-free way.

Scientists Daniel and Kelly cannot stop talking about our amazing, wonderful, weird Universe! Each episode is a fun, easy-to-understand, and in-depth explanation of topics in science, from particles to black holes to moon colonies to ecosystems to parasites and everything else in the Universe!

A hilarious guide to what's real (and what's not) in our vast, beautiful (and terrifying) universe.

Are we alone in the universe? It's a fundamental question for Earth-dwelling humankind. Are there other worlds like ours, out there somewhere? In Hidden in the Heavens, Jason Steffen, a former scientist on NASA's Kepler mission, describes how that mission searched for planets orbiting Sun-like stars—especially Earth-like planets circulating in Earth-like orbits.

Humanity has long looked to the sky and marveled at the world around us. We've wondered why the world is the way it is and whether it has to be that way. And we dream of a time when we have developed a theory of everything—a theory that answers all questions. Einstein's Unfinished Dream explores the cutting-edge research of modern particle physicists that pushes us slowly towards a theory of everything....

Dieser Wissenschafts-Podcast startete Ende 2021, passend zum Start von ESA-Astronaut Matthias Maurer. Wir begleiteten "unseren Mann auf der ISS" und die Beschäftigung mit den zahlreichen Themen hat uns – und euch – soviel Spaß gemacht, dass daraus eine Reihe geworden ist, die sich der Forschung von heute und der Technologie von morgen widmet. Es geht unter anderem um Leben und Arbeiten im Weltraum, Medizin, Popcorn, Roboter, Künstliche Intelligenz, Planeten, modernes Fliegen, Erdbeobachtung, Nachhaltigkeit und tanzende Hubschrauber.

Mit Hawking durch Raum und Zeit. Wie ist das Universum entstanden? Was war vor dem Urknall? Warum sind Schwarze Löcher schwarz? Gibt es außerirdisches Leben? Können wir in die Vergangenheit reisen? - Der Wissenschaftsjournalist und Hawking-Experte Rüdiger Vaas bringt sprichwörtlich Licht ins Dunkel. Kurzweilige Texte machen Hawkings faszinierende Gedanken unterhaltsam und leicht nachvollziehbar. Eine abenteuerliche Reise durch Hawkings Universum! Gelesen von Daniel Pokladek.
