Book Synopsis SUPERNOVA SEARCH ATLAS and GUIDE by : Clay Sherrod
Download or read book SUPERNOVA SEARCH ATLAS and GUIDE written by Clay Sherrod and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-04-25 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finally, here is YOUR blueprint to discovery in astronomy. Today's non-professional astronomers with well-equipped observatories - advanced amateurs, colleges, institutions - are now contributing more than ever to fascinating discoveries throughout space. These private facilities now contribute thousands of observations and discoveries yearly into the scientific database. One such endeavor is that of supernovae searches, exploring distant galaxies in wait for these rare stellar explosions seen from millions of light years away. But where do we look? Current sources were lacking to detail the process of discovering and reporting these events, as was a study plan with suggested objects for monitoring. SUPERNOVA Search Atlas and Guide fills this void with over 300 carefully selected galaxies, photographed from the Arkansas Sky Observatories over a three year period. This study guide takes the guesswork out of discovery and provides the ultimate blueprint for your next discovery.

Book Synopsis The World's Last Peanut by : Clay Sherrod
Download or read book The World's Last Peanut written by Clay Sherrod and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-11-11 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many changes in one's lifetime are for the better; some are glaringly not. Progress of our modern world has led to the shadow of ""Political Correctness"" - every word written and spoken must be weighed lest someone will be insulted. No longer can we have a candid conversation for fear of banishment if we so much as use the wrong word, wrong idea, or thought that will offend someone. In this little book, is a very curious selection of tales and thoughts - philosophies perhaps - that are true stories that should offend no one. Yet in the course of these writings, when presented as opinion in newspapers around the United States, each of these has found someone who has been overwhelmed with my careless use of my imagination or choice of words. Hopefully you will find value, fun and humor in this ""Curious Collection of Politically Incorrect Opinions and Thoughts. If you do not find value, fun and humor in your readings, then you might want to change political parties. Or stay in bed.

Book Synopsis Fireflies From Orion - The Poetry of P. Clay Sherrod by : Clay Sherrod
Download or read book Fireflies From Orion - The Poetry of P. Clay Sherrod written by Clay Sherrod and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-01-05 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I firmly believe that all people are poets; also I think that most poets never write for anyone but themselves. Writing poetry will save a bright mind a fortune, for you will never need a therapist when you write from your heart. The work is highly personal, emotional, and sinks deep into the very essence of the soul of the writer. That being said, I hope that you read and enjoy Fireflies From Orion, this being a selection composed of over fifty years of my writing prose. There are sad poems, happy poems, spiritual writings, emotion-evoking words...as all poetry should be. Fireflies is poetry truly from the heart, not written to appease the strictest school of composition, not please those with whom iambic pentameter is a requirement along with every line to rhyme....you will not find that in Fireflies. You will find raw poetry, prose of both regular and irregular rhythm, words that hopefully will paint pictures and evoke memories in your mind from times long ago, now gone
Book Synopsis Fission Population by : Clay Sherrod
Download or read book Fission Population written by Clay Sherrod and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-04-20 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As early as 2030 the Arctic Ocean could lose essentially all of its ice during the warmest months of the year?a radical transformation that would destroy virtually all of the Arctic ecosystems and disrupt or destroy many northern communities, if not many communities along the coastal areas of Earth. Even now concentrations of Greenhouse gases are rising dramatically ? because of mankind's industry as well as human overpopulation leading to the destruction of the cycle of photosynthesis. The human of Earth seems to be leading its own extinction. Has the cycle reached its ?critical mass? and now unable to be reversed? Will popular social efforts such as ?Going Green? help in any way whatsoever at this point in a global evolutionary crisis? In only a few ? perhaps two ? generations of the human race might we know the answers to whether the human race will have a planet capable of sustaining life without ever leaving this world.

Book Synopsis Cookin' In The Woods by : Clay Sherrod
Download or read book Cookin' In The Woods written by Clay Sherrod and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-09-27 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bound Edition! An intriguing side-effect of having a great sense of smell is the ability to figure out "what's in" various meals that others have cooked. Likewise, it makes it easier to figure out how to make those dishes BETTER than the ones found in most cookbooks by changing ingredients or cooking methods. "Cookin' In The Woods" is a simple compilation of many very easy-to-make, last-minute, recipes that will have your friends and family begging for the recipe. In fact, that is exactly how this little cookbook came about: Never using any written guide, I have always had the knack to repeat excellent meals that all enjoy. Once finished, I usually get asked for the recipe and have never had such a thing - until now. You will notice that there are NO desserts here...only filling, satisfying and wholesome meals for all appetites. "Nothing Sweet....." These are my favorites and I hope that you enjoy them as much as thousands of my taste-testers have over the past 50 years!
Book Synopsis Human Population and the Case for Global Warming by : Clay Sherrod
Download or read book Human Population and the Case for Global Warming written by Clay Sherrod and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-07-23 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Massive country-sized glaciers fall magnificently into the polar waters around them, one by one, eroding the great masses of ice that we have come to know as ?polar caps? of Earth. Great shelves of prehistory in frozen state are finally giving way to the warming blanket of air surrounding our planet, the results of which are going to be catastrophic for future generations of all living things. The cause of the glacial erosion is very simple: human population explosion and the results of human demand and consumption. Today it is likely to be unstopped. The nonsensical ?going green? movement should have begun in the early 1960's when scientists first sounded the alarm about this potential global disaster; suggesting even more ludicrous plans such as ?The Green New Deal? is nothing but political rhetoric?it is not a solution, only diversion from a solution. In fact, the problem is so large that possibly no effort short of the elimination of the human specie will stop the cycle.

Book Synopsis Cambridge Astronomy Guide by : William Liller
Download or read book Cambridge Astronomy Guide written by William Liller and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 1990-08-23 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cambridge Astronomy Guide is intended for lovers of astronomy who wish to do more than just look at the night sky or marvel at glossy pictures of it. It tells you how to get outside and actually practise astronomy, even if you own nothing more than a simple camera. Astronomy, more than any other science, offers amateurs the opportunity to make meaningful and lasting contributions to the field. This Guide explains in simple non-mathematical terms how you can take stunning star photographs and then put them to use making valuable contributions to the science of astronomy. Ben Mayer's odd-numbered chapters provide a fascinating account told with much humour of how one raw amateur got started and quickly progressed to become one of the world's best known and in many ways most successful amateur astronomers. Bill Liller's even-numbered chapters provide a more extensive commentary on much of what Ben writes, plus some additional material which gives the professional point of view.

Book Synopsis A Guide to Hubble Space Telescope Objects by : James L. Chen
Download or read book A Guide to Hubble Space Telescope Objects written by James L. Chen and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-07-16 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the authors of "How to Find the Apollo Landing Sites," this is a guide to connecting the view above with the history of recent scientific discoveries from the Hubble Space Telescope. Each selected HST photo is shown with a sky map and a photograph or drawing to illustrate where to find it and how it should appear from a backyard telescope. Here is the casual observer's chance to locate the deep space objects visually, and appreciate the historic Hubble photos in comparison to what is visible from a backyard telescope. HST objects of all types are addressed, from Messier objects, Caldwell objects, and NGC objects, and are arranged in terms of what can be seen during the seasons. Additionally, the reader is given an historical perspective on the work of Edwin Hubble, while locating and viewing the deep space objects that changed astronomy forever. Countless people have seen the amazing photographs taken by the Hubble Space Telescope. But how many people can actually point out where in the sky those objects are? Why were these objects chosen to be studied? What discoveries were made from the Hubble Space Telescope photographs? This book is for anyone who wants answers to these questions.
