Download or read book Venera written by Jay Rogoff and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2014-02-03 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Praise for Jay Rogoff "[Rogoff's] poetry takes a visible art of movement and translates the feelings it evokes and the history it records into delicate words.... But Rogoff also has an amazing knack for the humor in humanity, as a slew of death-defying poems demonstrates." -- Andrew Burstein, The Baton Rouge Advocate "Quite simply, I love the gravitational, poetic pull of Rogoff 's work." -- Renée E. D'Aoust, Notre Dame Review The poems in Jay Rogoff's Venera explore varieties of love, both sacred and profane, by drawing from the natural world, personal intimacy, and the human imagination as evoked in biblical narratives and art. Rogoff reveals how devotion's many guises collide to startle us: a husband consoles his wife after she is awakened by an imaginary child, a man daydreams of his kindergarten crush, Abraham's fear of God perplexes his love for Isaac, and the Virgin Mary, stunned by the angel Gabriel's inhuman beauty, contemplates the decades of purity that stretch ahead. In Venera's title sonnet sequence, inspired by visions of the feminine depicted in the works of Renaissance painter Jan van Eyck, such collisions evolve into collusions. As Rogoff weds elevated language to plainspokenness and sets the erotic alongside the miraculous, the beloved accumulates many identities -- everyone's mother and everyone's daughter, the laboring handmaid and the Queen of heaven, the fertile field and the elusive bride. Rogoff's poems allow us to ponder the contradictory human concoctions of love, detailing how they drive us to venerate the sacred while also submitting to the power of the sensuous.

Book excerpt: Welcome to Venera; the population is vibrant, established peace with their neighbors have made them excel even further. Queen Aya has held the throne because her people love her and admired by her allies. Everything is perfect until the resources begin to run low; not attainable by trade- the only option is INVASION. The Queen struggles with the idea of taking IT by force, the daunting reality that death and destruction lies between her and the survival of her people. Meanwhile, a runaway planet has entered the Earth's orbit but has stopped short of colliding with the Earth. The people have decided to occupy it using it as a military installation and to train a professional space team of soldiers; Governments of Earth have dubbed it simply, " Earth's Frontline." Follow Revelle and her friends as their military training prepares them for the space missions ahead while coping with a strange new world and their own dreams and aspirations that don't match that of the people in charge. A collective joint space program is the idea being sold but is that the real reason? The first book in this novella series will test your moral compass. Nothing is what it seems and what it is; will leave you wondering what's next.
Book Synopsis Space Mining and Its Regulation by : Ram S. Jakhu
Download or read book Space Mining and Its Regulation written by Ram S. Jakhu and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-08-12 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the complex technical challenges presented by remote space mining in terms of robotics, remote power systems, space transport, IT and communications systems, and more. It also addresses the difficult oversight and regulatory issues that face states and non-state enterprises that would take on the perilous task of obtaining natural resources from the Moon and asteroids. An increasing number of countries are becoming involved in space-related activities that were previously carried out primarily by the United States and the USSR (now the Russian Federation). How these regulatory endeavors might be handled in international treaties, standards, codes of conduct or other means have become a truly international political issue. And there is yet another issue. In the past, space activities traditionally fell under the exclusive domain of government. But the last few years have seen the emergence of the private sector of "space entrepreneurs." This poses many challenges for the pre-existing governance regimes and state-based conceptions of international law. This book examines the adequacies and ambiguities in treaty provisions and national laws and in currently accepted practices involving the growing exploration and exploitation of space-based natural resources.
Book Synopsis Spacecraft that Explored the Inner Planets Venus and Mercury by : Thomas Lund
Download or read book Spacecraft that Explored the Inner Planets Venus and Mercury written by Thomas Lund and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-07-03 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A series of increasingly capable spacecraft were sent to explore the inner planets Venus and Mercury. The history of that planetary exploration is traced in this book along with the evolution of sophisticated spacecraft that unveiled long-sought secrets of the planets. The spacecraft were ingenious and reflected the best efforts of talented people working with the available technology of the day. Additionally, this book showcases engineering involved in those capable machines. A consecutive series of 34 planetary spacecraft, which span the time period 1961 to 2021, are described. This includes the unsuccessful missions of several early spacecraft that paved the way for a better understanding of Venus’ hostile environments. This book will describe many successful spacecraft sent to Venus by the Soviet Union and many successful spacecraft sent to Venus and to Mercury by the United States. The recent exploration of Venus by the European Space Agency’s Venus Express and the Japanese spacecraft Akatsuki can also be found in this book. The author draws on over 50 years of experience on aircraft and spacecraft systems to tell the story of these planetary spacecraft. The spacecraft experience includes being the technical lead for the landing radars on the Surveyor and Apollo lunar landers as well as providing analyses for the rendezvous radar for the Space Shuttle. Practical engineering experience is augmented by Master’s degrees in electrical engineering, physics, and business administration.

Download or read book Literature 1976, Part 2 written by S. Böhme and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-18 with total page 869 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Astronomy and Astrophysics Abstracts, which has appeared in semi-annual volumes since 1969, is de voted to the recording, summarizing and indexing of astronomical publications throughout the world. It is prepared under the auspices of the International Astronomical Union (according to a resolution adopted at the 14th General Assembly in 1970). Astronomy and Astrophysics Abstracts aims to present a comprehensive documentation of literature in all fields of astronomy and astrophysics. Every effort will be made to ensure that the average time interval between the date of receipt of the original literature and publication of the abstracts will not exceed eight months. This time interval is near to that achieved by monthly abstracting journals, com pared to which our system of accumulating abstracts for about six months offers the advantage of greater convenience for the user. Volume 18 contains literature published in 1976 and received before March 1, 1977; some older liter ature which was received late and which is not recorded in earlier volumes is also included.
