Kosmologi og universet

Seven years before Richard Preston wrote about horrifying viruses in The Hot Zone, he turned his attention to the cosmos. In First Light, he demonstrates his gift for creating an exciting and absorbing narrative around a complex scientific subject--in this case the efforts by astronomers at the Palomar Observatory in the San Gabriel Mountains of California to peer to the farthest edges of space through the Hale Telescope, attempting to solve the riddle of the creation of the universe.Richard Preston's name became a household word with The Hot Zone, which sold nearly 800,000 copies in hardcover, was on The New York Times's bestseller list for 42 weeks, and was the subject of countless magazine and newspaper articles. Preston has become a sought-after commentator on popular science subjects.

Tiden er en gåde. For at løse den tager fysiker Troels Harmark os med på en rejse tilbage til antikkens græske filosoffer, videre op gennem naturvidenskabens historie til bl.a. Newton og Einstein og helt ud til forskningsfronten i moderne fysik og de største spørgsmål som, hvordan universet blev til. Tiden oprandt ved universets fødsel, og vi lever stadig i tiden her 13,8 milliarder år senere. Vi har en krop, der ældes, og kan ikke forestille os vores liv uden tid – vi indordner os under den, og tænker, at den bevæger sig regelmæssigt, som visernes præcise vandring over døgnets timer på uret. Men fysikken beretter en anden historie – om tidens relativitet: at den går langsommere tæt ved Jordens overflade end på toppen af et bjerg, at tiden står stille på kanten af sorte huller, og at universet udvider sig uendeligt. Tidens gang skal findes imellem de to modpoler: at alt er tilfældigt og at alt er uafvendeligt. På sporet af tidens gåde handler om, hvordan det hele hænger sammen, og hvordan det kan være, at man regner med, at tiden en dag vil stoppe med at gå. Hvordan skal vi forstå tiden?

Denne bog er en kortfattet beskrivelse af det verdensbillede, som den danske forfatter Martinus (1890-1981) beskrev i en omfattende litteratur. Ifølge Martinus er livet på Jorden kun er et lille udsnit af verdensaltets uendelige mange livsformer. Alt liv er en udfoldelse af den evige Guddom, som er alkærlig, alvis og almægtig. De levende væsener i tilværelsen er alle udødelige, eftersom de har rod i Guddommens eget væsen. Menneskenes tilværelse på Jorden er en videreførelse af mineralriget, planteriget og dyreriget på vej mod gudsriget. De nuværende mennesker er under forvandling fra dyr til menneske dvs. til et ”rigtigt” menneske, som er alkærligt ligesom dets guddommelige ophav. Denne forvandling strækker sig overmange tusinde år og omfatter alle de mennesker, som har levet på Jorden. Det er muligt, fordi hvert menneske er udødeligt og har talrige liv til sin forvandling (reinkarnation). Om ca. 3000år vil alle mennesker være genfødt som rigtige mennesker og gudsriget dermed opstået. De mørke tilstande, som hersker i menneskeheden på Jorden i disse år er en gammel kulturs undergang og en ny kulturs allerførstedaggry. Mørket i menneskers skæbne er en nødvendigerfaringsdannelse for at kunne skabe lyset.

In recent decades, twistor theory has grown into an irreplaceable tool for the study of scattering amplitudes in gauge theory and gravity. This book introduces the reader to cutting-edge advances in twistor theory and its applications to general relativity. The problem of graviton scattering in four dimensions is shown to be dual to dramatically simpler computations in a two-dimensional CFT known as a twistor sigma model. Twistor sigma models are the first step toward a holographic description of gravity in asymptotically flat space-times. They underpin the infinitely many asymptotic symmetries of flat space physics discovered in celestial holography, and extend them to exciting new arenas like curved space-times. They also yield intrinsically mathematical results in the field of hyperkähler manifolds. This volume will be of broad interest to students and researchers looking for an accessible entry point into twistor geometry, scattering amplitudes, and celestial holography. It will also provide an invaluable reference for specialists by bringing together results from a host of different disciplines.

A portrait of trailblazing astronomer Henrietta Leavitt and an illustrated exploration of the power of attention in scientific observation, artistic creation, and the making of meaning.Our galaxy, the Milky Way, has a diameter of about 100,000 light years—a figure we can calculate because of the work of Henrietta Leavitt (1868–1921), who spent decades studying glass plate photographs of the night sky. Visual artist and researcher Anna Von Mertens’s Attention Is Discovery is a fascinating portrait of this remarkable woman who laid the foundation for modern cosmology, as well as an exploration of the power of looking and its revelatory role at the center of scientific discovery. Ushering us into the scientific community of women who worked alongside Leavitt, now known as the Harvard Computers, Von Mertens describes the inventive methodologies Leavitt devised to negotiate the era’s emerging photographic technology.Interspersed with Von Mertens’s meticulously researched and lyrically written essays are collaborations with art historian Jennifer L. Roberts, cosmologist Wendy Freedman, astrophysicist João Alves, and novelist Rebecca Dinerstein Knight. Alongside Leavitt’s process, evident in her astronomical logbooks and ink notations on the glass plates, Von Mertens includes details of the hand-stitched quilts and graphite drawings she made in response to Leavitt’s legacy. Photographs made by Jennifer L. Roberts using a macro lens amplify the material richness of these artworks and archives. This interweaving of text and image engages and rewards the reader’s own close attention. Highlighting ways subtle, repeated actions build meaning—whether skilled, technical observation, the crafting of an object, or the mundane tasks that construct our exquisite lives—Von Mertens’s pairing of close looking with close reading creates a layered portrait of Henrietta Leavitt that acknowledges the significance of her discovery and the richness of its inheritance.

Because of ancient sin, The Lord has cut Mankind off from The Tree of Life, which had given Mankind Eternal Life. Since that time, we were not intended to live forever in a fleshly body. Because The Lord's Temple, which is your body and soul, has been corrupted, it must be redeemed back to perfection by The Creator through the sacrifice of Christ for The Sins of The World. In 1st Corinthians 6:19-20, Paul asks, "Or do you not know that your body is a Temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So, glorify God in your body." Thus, YOU are The Temple of The Lord, not any human made temple in Jerusalem. Lucifer seeks to desecrate that temple and erect a false digital image in its place, so that Lucifer may dwell inside you instead of The Lord. Using genetic modification, machine enhancements, and digital upgrades, Lucifer will erect a New Satanic Temple, which shall be The New Man...Homo Deus: The Image of the Beast.Artificial Intelligence, animated by The Light of Lucifer, will be the final invention of Mankind. The Gnostic Luciferian Freemasons are Thieves in The Temple of The Lord, and they want to tamper with The Lord's Creation, which is The Temple of The Lord, known as Mankind, and thereby, become Gods through Transhumanistic technologies. They seek to desecrate The Temple of God, again, which is YOU.The Battle for Your Soul1) The battle is for The Temple of God: YOU.2) The battlefield is the soul of Mankind. 3) If you allow your mind to be plugged into The Internet of Things Cloud, you take on The Image of The Beast. It is The Forbidden Gate. Transhumanism is a perversion of God's Creation, merging "iron with clay", and tampering with Creation in the attempt to become God.4) You were born mortal, and only by dying a mortal, which requires rejecting any technologies that will alter you to become Transhuman, shall you live eternally. And Christ is The Way for this process. That is the Creator's plan. The Elite will offer you Immortality if you upload your mind into their Transhumanist Cyber Realm. If you choose it, you will forever lose your soul. It is your choice.5) The Image of the Beast IS Transhumanism through Techno Mystical Technologies, including Artificial Intelligence. 6) Artificial Intelligence heralds the end of Mankind and the beginning of The Beast System.

Cosmology's journey to the present day has been a long one. This book outlines the latest research on modern cosmology and related topics from world-class experts. Through it, readers will learn how multi-disciplinary approaches and technologies are used to search the unknown and how we arrived at the knowledge used and assumptions made by cosmologists today. The book is organized into four parts, each exploring a theme that has troubled humankind for centuries. Since the dawn of time, looking at the sky, humans have tried to understand their origin, the laws governing it, and what influence it all has on human life. In most ancient civilizations, astronomers embodied the power of knowledge. This knowledge was not compartmentalized, and scientists often found philosophical implications within their quests, many of which destroyed the borders between the natural sciences. Even now, as observers and scientists continue to use conjecture to generate theoretical assumptions and laws that then have to be confirmed experimentally, said theoretical and experimental searches are being linked to philosophical thinking and artistic representation, as they were up until the 18th century. This multi-disciplinary book will appeal to anyone with an interest in the fields of Astronomy, Cosmology or Physics.
