    Summary of Stephen Hawking’s Brief Answers to the Big Questions , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 31min
    Brief Answers to the Big Questions (2018) presents the thoughts of theoretical physicist and cosmologist Stephen Hawking on 10 major scientific and philosophical debates, including whether a deity exists, whether intelligent life exists in space, and whether humans should seek out a new home outside of Earth. Hawking, who spent his life studying how black holes could help scientists better understand the universe’s beginnings, began compiling these answers in the year before his death from a personal archive of speeches, essays, and other musings he had delivered during his time as a scientist and public figure....

    Dark Matter and the Dinosaurs: The Astounding Interconnectedness of the Universe Summary , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 42min
    The interrelationships of every part of existence fascinates so many people, and Lisa Randall has used her skill as a cosmologist and physicist to bring some of those interconnections to life. She's concerned with the big ideas about the nature of the universe itself. Dark Matter and Dinosaurs takes two different concepts and ties them together by an exacting examination of the origin and structure of the universe, from a quantum level to galactic. Dinosaurs, solidly established in the history of the Earth, and dark matter, one of Einstein's remaining knots, turn out to have more than a few connecting threads. This is a summary and analysis of the book and not the original book. This book contains: Summary of the Entire Book Chapter by Chapter Breakdown Analysis of the Listening Experience ungekürzt.

    The Edge of the Sky: All You Need to Know about the All-There-Is , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 89min
    From the big bang to black holes, from dark matter to dark energy, from the origins of the universe to its ultimate destiny, The Edge of the Sky tells the story of the most important discoveries and mysteries in modern cosmology - with a twist. The book's lexicon is limited to the thousand most common words in the English language, even excluding physics, energy, galaxy, and universe. Through the eyes of a fictional scientist (Student-People) hunting for dark matter with one of the biggest telescopes (Big-Seers) on Earth (Home-World), cosmologist Roberto Trotta explores the most important ideas about our universe (All-There-Is) in language simple enough for anyone to understand. A unique blend of literary experimentation and science popularization, this delightful book is a perfect gift for any aspiring astronomer. The Edge of the Sky tells the story of the universe on a human scale, and the result is out of this world. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Bronson Pinchot.

    To the Best of Our Knowledge: Physics & The Big Questions (English), Hörbuch, Digital, 52min
    In this hour, it's the great existential mystery: Why is there something rather than nothing? Now, some physicists claim they may finally know how the Big Bang could pop out of nothing, though a new book by Lawrence Krauss has sparked an intellectual brawl about science, religion and philosophy. Steve Paulson talks about our modern creation story with Krauss and fellow physicist Marcelo Gleiser. Next, Copernicus changed the world with his revolutionary idea that the sun, not the Earth, is the center of our solar system. Dava Sobel tells us why this momentous discovery wasn't easy for Copernicus, and why he feared the public's reaction. Then, will we ever understand the true nature of dark matter and dark energy? Harvard cosmologist Lisa Randall examines the great mysteries in physics, and the parallels between science and art. And finally, do you need an advanced degree in math or physics to make discoveries about the cosmos? Thousands of amateur scientists say no, and they've proposed their own theories of the universe. Science writer Margaret Wertheim says we may not accept their theories, but these outsider physicists are often worth listening to. [Broadcast Date: June 8, 2012] Language: English. Narrator: Jim Fleming. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/rt/tbon/120608/rt_tbon_120608_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    To the Best of Our Knowledge: The Creative Mind, Hörbuch, Digital, 52min
    In this hour, Charles Limb is a surgeon and musician who researches the way creativity works in the brain. He puts jazz musicians inside an fMRI to find out what the brain does during musical improvisation. Bass player Mike Pope is one of his subjects. Anne Strainchamps talks with them about the music and the science. Next, creativity is hard-wired in the human brain, but we could all learn to be more creative. Harvard psychologist Shelley Carson's research has identified seven different modes of creative thinking. She tells Anne Strainchamps how we can all learn to amplify our own creative abilities.Then, imagine beginning your life's work at age 72. In the 1770's, Mary Delaney invented the medium we now call collage. Her collection of botanically-correct floral collages is today housed in the British Museum. Poet Molly Peacock fell in love with the work and the artist and has written a meditation on both and on late-life creativity.Finally, cosmologist Brian Swimme and Religion scholar Mary Evelyn Tucker tell the story of the origins of the universe, from the Big Bang to the present moment. They describe the universe as a story of unceasing creativity. They talk with Steve Paulson about their new book and film, Journey of the Universe. [Broadcast Date: July 4, 2012] Language: English.
