Book Synopsis Earth from Space by : Michael Bright
Download or read book Earth from Space written by Michael Bright and published by Random House. This book was released on 2019-04-11 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disclaimer: book optimally viewed on a colour device. You don't know home until you leave it. With over 200 spectacular images, including astonishing satellite images and stills from the BBC Natural History Unit’s footage, Earth from Space reveals our planet as you’ve never seen it before. For decades we competed to be the first to reach space, but it was when we looked back at Earth that we were truly awestruck. Now, for the first time, using advanced satellite images we can show the earth’s surface, its mega structures, weather patterns and natural wonders in breathtaking detail. From the colours and patterns that make up our planet to the mass migrations and seismic changes that shape it, Earth from Space sheds new light on the planet we call home. It reveals the intimate stories behind the breathtaking images, following herds of elephants crossing the plains of Africa and turtles travelling on ocean currents that are invisible unless seen from space. The true colours of our blue planet are revealed, from the striped tulip fields of Holland to the green swirl of a plankton super bloom that attracts a marine feeding frenzy. Whether it's the world’s largest beaver dam – so remote it was only discovered through satellite imagery – or newly formed islands born from volcanic eruptions, discover a new perspective on our ever-changing planet.

Book Synopsis Space on Earth by : Charles S. Cockell
Download or read book Space on Earth written by Charles S. Cockell and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 2006-11-28 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many environmentalists think going into space detracts from solving problems here on Earth. Many astrophysicists feel environmentalism hampers their exploration and settlement of space. Actually environmentalism and space exploration have one and the same objective, argues leading astro-biologist Professor Charles Cockell: to ensure humanity has a home. Cockell calls for a fusion of the two movements as the only way forward. The technologies we develop to live sustainably on Earth, such as wind and solar power, will also establish humanity in space. The exploration of space will provide new resources and skills for the protection of the Earth's environment. For example, studying extreme environments on Earth is helping us to look for life on Mars and satellites orbiting Earth are helping track hurricanes and protect people from natural disasters. There are many books on environmentalism and many on space faring. Space On Earth is the first to provide a new vision of humanity's future bringing these two goals together.

Book Synopsis A Framework for K-12 Science Education by : National Research Council
Download or read book A Framework for K-12 Science Education written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2012-02-28 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Science, engineering, and technology permeate nearly every facet of modern life and hold the key to solving many of humanity's most pressing current and future challenges. The United States' position in the global economy is declining, in part because U.S. workers lack fundamental knowledge in these fields. To address the critical issues of U.S. competitiveness and to better prepare the workforce, A Framework for K-12 Science Education proposes a new approach to K-12 science education that will capture students' interest and provide them with the necessary foundational knowledge in the field. A Framework for K-12 Science Education outlines a broad set of expectations for students in science and engineering in grades K-12. These expectations will inform the development of new standards for K-12 science education and, subsequently, revisions to curriculum, instruction, assessment, and professional development for educators. This book identifies three dimensions that convey the core ideas and practices around which science and engineering education in these grades should be built. These three dimensions are: crosscutting concepts that unify the study of science through their common application across science and engineering; scientific and engineering practices; and disciplinary core ideas in the physical sciences, life sciences, and earth and space sciences and for engineering, technology, and the applications of science. The overarching goal is for all high school graduates to have sufficient knowledge of science and engineering to engage in public discussions on science-related issues, be careful consumers of scientific and technical information, and enter the careers of their choice. A Framework for K-12 Science Education is the first step in a process that can inform state-level decisions and achieve a research-grounded basis for improving science instruction and learning across the country. The book will guide standards developers, teachers, curriculum designers, assessment developers, state and district science administrators, and educators who teach science in informal environments.

Book Synopsis Space. Earth. Human. by : Alexander Parkhomov
Download or read book Space. Earth. Human. written by Alexander Parkhomov and published by . This book was released on 2019-12-15 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DR. ALEXANDER GEORGIEVICH PARKHOMOV graduated from the Moscow Engineering Physics Institute, then he worked at the Department of Radiation Physics of this institute, studying radiation from nuclear reactors. He led a research group at the Moscow Aviation Institute, which studied the properties of ultra-low energy neutrinos, which have completely different properties to those of commonly understood neutrinos. He is the head of the laboratory - department of "Rhythms and fluctuations" at the Institute for the Study of the Nature of Time. He is the author or co-author of more than 200 scientific publications. He is a member of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences and a member of International Society for Condensed Mater Nuclear Science.The book is a tale of discovery and reason in which Dr. Alexander G. Parkhomov walks through fascinating aspects his unique life journey that lead him do discover a new type of penetrating radiation. This radiation permeates all space and is focused by cosmic influences into streams, that ultimately affects many processes occurring on the Earth.Discussing experience of mental control of matter, the book provides evidence of the presence of phenomena far beyond the current understanding of the scientific mainstream.This is not just a discussion of concepts, the book details the making of instruments and explains their scientific basis. These devices were used to prove the reality of this new radiation and address potential criticisms of its existence. Furthermore, he discusses specifically how to potentially synthesise this radiation and how it may be used to deliver, amongst other things, effectively unlimited energy, citing a specific common isotopic preference for this purpose. Dark matter research, from the time of its discovery, was really only of interest to astronomers, cosmologists and exotic scientists. In recent years however, after the accumulation of a "critical mass" of knowledge, it has become clear that this is not just an elusive substance dissolved in an infinite universe, but that it is an important source of connections between space and the biosphere.We are accustomed to the fact that influencing the course of processes implies changing their speed or intensity. This is the basis for all modern technology. Apparently however, there is another type of process variability, which manifests itself in a change in the chaos and order of a systems behaviour; this can occur regardless of energy changes. Perhaps, searching in this direction will allow us to overcome the crisis in modern natural science and open the possibility of a new level of knowledge about the world in which we live.
