De lo que realmente sucedió en el Big Bang a la invención casual del post-it, la ciencia está llena de descubrimientos sorprendentes. ¿Sabías, por ejemplo, por qué si te acercas demasiado a un agujero negro te succionará como a un fideo (por cierto, se llama «espaguetización»)? New Scientist lo sabe, y te lo explica de manera clara y amena, a través de fotos, infografías y símbolos para informar y entretener al mismo tiempo. Graham Lawton, editor jefe de New Scientist, y la ilustradora Jennifer Daniel emprenden un asombroso viaje lleno de información y revelaciones, desde los orígenes de nuestro Universo (la historia de las estrellas, las galaxias, los meteoritos, la Luna y la energía oscura), haciendo parada en nuestro planeta (los secretos de los océanos, el clima y el petróleo), donde conocerás las claves de la vida (los organismos, las emociones y el sexo), el surgimiento de la civilización (con sus ciudades, la cocina y la destilación), del conocimiento (desde los alfabetos a la alquimia) y de la tecnología (de las herramientas primitivas a la ciencia espacial). nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

~i~>Introduction by Professor Stephen Hawking. When Edwin Hubble looked into his telescope in the 1920s, he was shocked to find that nearly all of the galaxies he could see through it were flying away from one another. If these galaxies had always been travelling, he reasoned, then they must, at some point, have been on top of one another. This discovery transformed the debate about one of the most fundamental questions of human existence - how did the universe begin? Every society has stories about the origin of the cosmos and its inhabitants, but now, with the power to peer into the early universe and deploy the knowledge gleaned from archaeology, geology, evolutionary biology and cosmology, we are closer than ever to understanding where it all came from. In The Origin of (almost) Everything, New Scientist explores the modern origin stories of everything from the Big Bang, meteorites and dark energy, to dinosaurs, civilisation, timekeeping, belly-button fluff and beyond. From how complex life evolved on Earth, to the first written language, to how humans conquered space, The Origin of (almost) Everything offers a unique history of the past, present and future of our universe. span Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
