Using Space to Save Earth
Veteran science journalist William E Burrows offers a bold new mission for the U.S. space program: to protect the Earth from the ever-growing number of perils that threaten our way of life – and even our very survival.
We are living through one of the most dangerous times in human history. Nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons technology are proliferating, and missile technology is falling into more and more hands....

English
Description
Hurlburt Effect depicts the effect of total mass of unobservable space on quantum levels and radiation of the astrophysics big bang hole on the unobservable universe and the localized, observable big bang and observable universe. There were major shifts in mass and density of the structures of the earlier, larger unobservable universe with the unobservable universe's later, smaller big bang. The most surrounding space is the big bang hole which caused...

English
Description
The aim of this book is to provide a more efficient way to calculate and predict orbits and trajectories, not only for celestial bodies, but also for artificial satellites we send outside our atmosphere, and for ballistic. The equations presented here might also help improve weather forecasts and perhaps predict atmospheric behavior more precisely. Nowadays, we know that gravity is an electromagnetic (EM) wave of atomic origin caused by a kind of...

I am not the only one that noticed it. Thousands if not hundreds of thousands do believe in what I embrace today. Certainly not millions because I can see the darkness of the truth everywhere as I listen and watch the news. This lie is so ingrained in the minds of human beings that when you tell them the truth, they laugh. These people think you are crazy when you tell them the truth.
For many centuries we have been told that the earth is a Globe...

Fundamentals of Living and Non-Living Universes addresses the most fundamental law that governs the known non-living universe and its extension into the living universes. The author discusses major misconceptions regarding both realms. He introduces three major concepts for the first time:
Infinity wall, which argues with an ever-expanding universe theory that is currently widely accepted in scientific society
Law of spontaneity, which describes...

The first section the book, "Deconstructing Physics" surveys modern concepts in physics and astronomy. This section helps make quarks, baryons, and bosons understandable, and in doing so makes modern science accessible to non-physicists. The second section of the book, "The Nature of Space" introduces a group of cosmological concepts. The author uses a series of analogies to help explain interesting, but often opaque, subjects, such as dark matter,...

This is a partial summary of the ongoing quest by mankind to understand who he is, where he came from, how he relates to what his senses tell him about his physical and social environment. Does the continuum of change he experiences have a purpose other than what he gives it? His methods of inquiry and observations using created instruments and experimentation have allowed him to discover some of the history of the universe since the beginning of...

To advance a model describing attributes of nature, we are free to claim properties of the model that we believe support those attributes. Absent real experiments we can perform thought experiments to evaluate whether the assumed properties of the model support the attributes we're attempting to model. At the same time, we must consider alternative models that may also support those attributes. Our model is not validated unless we can invalidate the...
