  Space's Hidden Forces - How Dark...

  For centuries, humans have gazed up at the night sky in awe, wondering what lies beyond the stars. With the invention of powerful telescopes, astronomers began mapping galaxies, studying their motion, and uncovering patterns in how they moved through space. But something strange started to appear in the data. Galaxies were spinning in ways that defied the known laws of gravity. Based on what could be seen—the stars, dust, and gas—the galaxies should have been flying apart. The visible mass simply wasn’t enough to account for the gravitational pull holding everything together. This marked the beginning of a great cosmic mystery. 
  In the 1930s, Swiss-American astronomer Fritz Zwicky made one of the first observations that hinted at this invisible force. He studied a cluster of galaxies and noticed that they were moving too fast to be held together by the visible matter alone. He proposed the existence of “dunkle Materie,” or dark matter—an unknown substance that made up the missing mass. At the time, his ideas were largely ignored or dismissed as speculative. But in the decades that followed, more evidence began to emerge, and dark matter slowly gained credibility within the scientific community. 
  Fast forward to the 1970s, astronomer Vera Rubin provided some of the most convincing evidence that dark matter was real. By analyzing the rotation curves of spiral galaxies, she showed that stars far from the center of galaxies were moving just as quickly as those near the core. According to Newtonian physics, the stars on the edges should move slower, as the gravitational pull should weaken with distance from the center. But that wasn’t happening. Something unseen was holding these stars in orbit, acting like a glue that bound the galaxies together. This unseen substance, which does not emit, absorb, or reflect light, became known as dark matter.

  Bluebird Seasons - Witnessing...

  In this A Sand County Almanac for the twenty-first century, nature writer and zoologist Mary Taylor Young tells the story of the growing effects of climate change on her land in the pine-covered foothills of southern Colorado. 
   
   
    
  Climate change wasn't yet on the public radar when Young and her husband bought their piece of the wild in 1995. They built a cabin and set up a trail of bluebird nest boxes, and Mary began a nature journal of her observations, delighting in the ceaseless dramas, joys, and tragedies that are the fabric of life in the wild. 
   
   
    
  But changes greater than the seasonal cycles of nature became evident over time: increasing drought, trees killed by plagues of beetles, wildfires, catastrophic weather, bears entering hibernation later and thinner, the decline of some familiar birds, and the appearance of new species. 
   
   
    
  Using the journal as a chronicle of change, Young tells a story echoed in everyone's lives and backyards. But it's not time to despair, she writes. It's time to act. 
   
   
    
  Young sees hope in the human ability to overcome great obstacles, in the energy and determination of young people, and in nature's resilience, which the bluebirds show season after season.

  Mary Jumbelic has been obsessed with death since the loss of her father when she was 13. The sudden departure of her dad, the mother left behind, and her position as an only child led her to grow up quickly. Yet the why and how of her father's death plagued her. She chose to view an autopsy at the age of 15 and discovered a science that explained the process. College, medical school and becoming a forensic pathologist wasn't a given. She struggled before ultimately deciding on a career as a medical examiner.For 25 years, she analyzed corpses and explained to families what had happened to their loved ones, something that hadn't been done for her. She faced blood, gore, violence, and grief in urban and country morgues. She worked for the federal government and internationally in mass disasters. This daily confrontation challenged her to re-live her own loss. She became an advocate in recognizing preventable injuries to help reduce fatalities. Dr. Jumbelic developed a way to honor the person's life by speaking for them in courts, classrooms, and interviews. How did she finally integrate death into her own life so filled with hope? This is her journey.Mary Jumbelic, M.D., is a board-certified forensic pathologist who has performed thousands of autopsies. She received awards from the National Transportation Safety Board and the New York State Senate, and has been recognized by the National Organization of Women as a trailblazer. This is her first book, an interweaving of personal and professional stories that demystify death. She lives with her husband in Central New York. Her motto is "I speak for the dead. They speak for me."
