Space and Planetary Advances

Exoplanet Detection Methods

Uncovering the Evolution of Planetary Systems

When Neil Armstrong first set foot in the lunar dust, his action forever changed our view of what was possible. Once something new alters our perspective, a transformation starts. In The Story of Astrophysics in Five Revolutions, Ersilia Vaudo explores five such turning points in the history of cosmology: Newton's realisation that gravity governs the celestial world; Einstein's two theories of relativity, linking space with time and gravity with acceleration; Hubble's revelation of an expanding universe; and the emergence of antiparticles and their implications for our cosmic evolution.
But we still have much to learn. We are navigating through shifting reference points, abandoned convictions, observations that surprise us, technologies that evolve-always waiting impatiently for new measurements, new questions. Vaudo illuminates the key insights that have led us to where we are todays but above all she urges us to look beyond, in an on-going quest to understand the cosmos and our place in it.

The Story of Astrophysics in Five Revolutions

Astronomy Photographer of the Year: Collection 14

Python Experiments in Physics and Astronomy acts as a resource for science and engineering students or faculty who would like to see how a diverse selection of topics can be analyzed and simulated using Python programs.

Python Experiments in Physics and Astronomy

Taxi drivers love to talk, and when astrobiologist Charles Cockell is their passenger, they love to talk about aliens. This humorous, insightful collection gathers essays inspired by conversations with cabbies, ranging over the possible nature of alien societies, the inevitability of life, and links between environmentalism and space exploration.

Conversations with Drivers about Life in the Universe

Taxi from Another Planet

An exciting new title in the vein of Hidden Figures, which tells the inspiring stories of long-overlooked women physicists and astronomers who discovered the fundamental rules of the universe and reshaped the rules of society. Women physicists and astronomers from around the world have transformed science and society, but the critical roles they played in their fields are not always well-sung. Her Space, Her Time, authored by award-winning quantum physicist Shohini Ghose, brings together the stories of these remarkable women to celebrate their indelible scientific contributions. In each chapter of the book, Ghose explores a scientific topic and explains how the women featured in that chapter revolutionized that area of physics and astronomy. In doing so, she also addresses particular aspects of women’s experiences in physics and astronomy: in the chapter on time, for instance, we learn of Henrietta Leavitt and Margaret Burbidge, who helped discover the big bang and the cosmic calendar; in the chapter on space exploration, we learn of Anigaduwagi (Cherokee) aerospace scientist Mary Golda Ross, who helped make the Moon landings possible; and in the chapter on subatomic particles, we learn of Marietta Blau, Hertha Wambacher, and Bibha Chowdhuri, who contributed to the discovery of the building blocks of the universe, and, in doing so, played a crucial role in determining who gets to do physics today. Engaging, accessible, and timely, Her Space, Her Time is a collective story of scientific innovation, inspirational leadership, and overcoming invisibility that will leave a lasting impression on any reader curious about the rule-breakers and trendsetters who illuminated our understanding of the universe. Some of the featured women scientists in the book •&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Williamina Fleming •&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Annie Jump Cannon •&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin •&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Antonia Maury •&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Henrietta Leavitt •&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Margaret Burbidge •&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Mary Golda Ross •&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Dilhan Eryurt •&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Claudia Alexander •&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Joyce Neighbors •&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Navajo women of Shiprock •&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Harriet Brooks •&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Marie Curie •&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Lise Meitner •&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Marietta Blau •&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Hertha Wambacher •&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Bibha Chowdhuri •&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Wu Chien-Shiung •&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Women of the Manhattan Project •&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Vera Rubin

How Trailblazing Women Scientists Decoded the Hidden Universe

Her Space, Her Time

Kosmos

An inviting expedition across our galactic neighborhood, from Mercury to the Sun's furthest satellites, complete with the latest discoveries. The Space Age probes to the Moon, Venus, and Mars ushered in a golden age of planetary science, transforming our understanding of the solar system from a distant mystery into many, vividly realized worlds. This book provides an accessible survey of the solar system, covering each of the planets as well as the major asteroids and bodies just outside the solar system. Drawing on interviews with leading scientists, the book offers an engaging overview of the latest discoveries for amateur astronomers, making it an essential guide for anyone interested in our celestial neighborhood.

The Solar System

Father and daughter lead the scientifically curious reader through two remarkable branches of physics, quantum physics and astrophysics, that dramatically changed our perception of nature. From the subatomic to the astronomical realms, they weave a rich tapestry of scientific insight, history, personal anecdotes, philosophy, and wonder.

A Dialogue between Father and Daughter

Two Revolutions: Einstein's Relativity and Quantum Physics

"A thrilling exploration of competing cosmological origin stories, comparing new scientific ideas that upend our very notions of space, time, and reality. By most popular accounts, the universe started with a bang some 13.8 billion years ago. But what happened before the Big Bang? Here prominent cosmologist Niayesh Afshordi and science communicator Phil Halper offer a tour of the peculiar possibilities: bouncing and cyclic universes, time loops, creations from nothing, multiverses, black hole births, string theories, and holograms. Along the way, they offer both a call for new physics and a riveting story of scientific debate. Incorporating Afshordi's cutting-edge research and insights from Halper's original interviews with scientists like Stephen Hawking, Roger Penrose, and Alan Guth, Battle of the Big Bang compares these models for the origin of our origins, showing each theory's strengths and weaknesses and explaining new attempts to test these theories. Battle of the Big Bang is a tale of rivalries and intrigue, of clashes of ideas that have raged from Greek antiquity to the present day over whether the universe is eternal or had a beginning, whether it is unique or one of many. But most of all, Afshordi and Halper show that this search is filled with wonder, discovery, and community-all essential for remembering a forgotten cosmic past"--

Battle of the Big Bang

Seeing the Universe in a Different Light

The Radio Universe

A thrilling tour of Earth that shows the search for extraterrestrial life starts in our own backyard. Is there life off Earth? Bound by the limitations of spaceflight, a growing number of astrobiologists investigate the question by studying life on our planet. Astronomer and author Jon Willis shows us how it's done, allowing readers to envision extraterrestrial landscapes by exploring their closest Earth analogs. With Willis, we dive into the Pacific Ocean from the submersible-equipped E/V Nautilus to ponder the uncharted seas of Saturn's and Jupiter's moons; search the Australian desert for some of Earth's oldest fossils and consider the prospects for a Martian fossil hunt; visit mountaintop observatories in Chile to search for the telltale twinkle of extrasolar planets; and eavesdrop on dolphins in the Bahamas to imagine alien minds. With investigations ranging from meteorite hunting to exoplanet detection, Willis conjures up alien worlds and unthought-of biological possibilities, speculating what life might look like on other planets by extrapolating from what we can see on Earth, our single "pale blue dot"--as Carl Sagan famously called it--or, in Willis's reframing, scientists' "pale blue data point."
