They Control The World

Robert Teller

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  
A gripping true story of an unwitting man's first-hand account into Power, Secrecy, and the Shadows Behind the Throne. 
Who really holds the reins of power in our world? In They Control The World, the curtain is pulled back on the hidden networks, intelligence agencies, and global elite who shape our future from behind the scenes. Based on events about how the new physics of quantum entanglement was discovered, this powerful audiobook is a history book in the form of a novel. It exposes the silent forces that influence war, economics, democracy, and our forthcoming world of Artificial Intelligence as quantum entanglement begins to merge with it. 
Spanning from post-WWII covert operations to the dawn of the 21st century, this deeply compelling work follows the journey of a spiritual seeker who inadvertently ends up entangled in the web of global manipulation. Through encounters with intelligence operatives, he uncovers the truths that challenge our understanding of freedom, morality, and who really calls the shots. 
Whether you’re a seeker of truth, a lover of political intrigue, or someone simply questioning the official story, They Control The World is an essential listen that dares to ask: What if everything we thought we knew... was only part of the plan?

The Universal Timekeepers -...

David J. Helfand

Atoms are unfathomably tiny. It takes fifteen million trillion of them to make up a single poppy seed—give or take a few billion. And there's hardly anything to them: atoms are more than 99.9999999999 percent empty space. Yet scientists have learned to count these slivers of near nothingness with precision and to peer into their internal states. In looking so closely, we have learned that atoms, because of their inimitable signatures and imperturbable internal clocks, are little archives holding the secrets of the past. 
 
 
 
David J. Helfand reconstructs the history of the universe—back to its first microsecond 13.8 billion years ago—with the help of atoms. He shows how, by using detectors and reactors, microscopes and telescopes, we can decode the tales these infinitesimal particles tell, answering questions such as: Is a medieval illustrated prayer book real or forged? How did maize cultivation spread from the highlands of central Mexico to New England? What was Earth's climate like before humans emerged? Where can we find clues to identify the culprit in the demise of the dinosaurs? When did our planet and solar system form? Can we trace the births of atoms in the cores of massive stars or even glimpse the origins of the universe itself?

International Space Station The:...

Editors Charles River

Much has been written about the Space Race, which is still taught across America today, but the story of human space exploration is mostly one of cooperation. Even in the summer of 1969, the Soviets had given the United States the flight plan for its Luna 15 mission, allowing Apollo 11 to avoid it.  
	That was the first of many examples of cooperation in space between the United States and the Soviet Union during the Cold War, and ultimately, their research and cooperation helped lead to the construction of the International Space Station (ISS), a large space station assembled in Earth’s orbit that represents the most ambitious international space project in history.  
	Thanks to the various components that have been put together, the International Space Station is bigger and brighter than all other artificial satellites. With relatively low power magnification, people can see the solar panels radiating outward from the numerous international modules which make up the ISS. The reality of that platform, at the edge of the ocean of space, is pretty astounding when looked at from the perspective of history. Only 120 years ago, mankind did not know if it was possible to fly in a heavier-than-air vehicle. Constructed with over 30 different modules and pieces that were carried into orbit by dozens of different launches, the ISS is already over 150 feet long, 300 feet wide and 60 feet tall. Astronauts from 10 nations have spent time on the space station as long-term crew. 
	In addition, the International Space Station can truly be held as a sign that the Space Age is maturing quite nicely, at least on a social and personal level. A total of 34 women have visited the space station, eight tourists have paid for the privilege of taking the trip to the station, and there have been many who have made multiple trips to the ISS.
