  The UFO Experience - Evidence...

  J. Allen Hynek

  Cited by the New York Review of Books as “the best brief for visitation,” this classic study presents an analysis of UFO reports and concludes that many sightings cannot be easily dismissed. The case against UFOs and unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) has not been put to rest. Although UFOs “officially” did not exist for decades according to the government, reports of sightings continue to be made, and the latest releases from the government and related hearings have surprised the world. While the scientific community has put UFOs out to pasture, the evidence used to dismiss them is rare and unscientific. Dr. Hynek, a scientist himself, and the only government-paid ufologist in history, looks at the decisions made by officialdom in the early days of ufology and how these decisions have held us back—to the point that we are still naively talking about UFOs as we were in the 1950s. Has seventy years of research made no difference at all in our understanding? Dr. Hynek proves that there is a conspiracy afoot to hide the facts and that there are many cases that still need to be explained by mainstream science—not dismissed with facile jokes and stupid logic. Citing specific cases, Hynek challenges those in the ivory tower by raising questions that have still not been answered and refuting mainstream arguments that have yet to be proven.

  Spaced Out is designed to give a brief overview on all of the subjects that pertain to astronomy and space sciences in a down-to-Earth way.  
  It is inspired by current space news and the most asked questions from popular science communicator Kalpana Pot’s online audience.  
  The subjects covered include our solar system, stars, galaxies, exoplanets, telescopes, spacetime, interstellar objects, relativity, quantum mechanics, debunking conspiracies, and the unknown.  
  Each page covers one specific concept that fits into the above categories. This gives the readers a general take on rather complex topics.  
  Readers are further encouraged to do their own deep-dive on the topics that interest them the most. 
  The more we learn about the Universe, the more we realize how much we don’t know. Discoveries that challenge what we once thought we knew happen all the time. This book is accurate for the time of the writing, but things can always change, and that’s what’s most exciting about science in general!  
  Space is for everyone. You’re never too old, too young, too uneducated, or even too busy to slow down and ponder the final frontier.

  Supernovae - The History of...

  Supernovae are incredibly powerful explosions that occur at the end of a star's life cycle, during which the star undergoes a dramatic increase in brightness, often outshining an entire galaxy for a brief period. They can occur through various mechanisms, such as the collapse of massive stars or the thermonuclear explosions of white dwarfs in binary systems. Supernovae play a crucial role in the evolution of galaxies, as they distribute heavy elements and trigger the formation of new stars and planetary systems. 
  Supernovae are pivotal events in astrophysics, influencing our understanding of the universe in multifaceted ways. Firstly, they are factories for heavy elements such as iron and gold, synthesizing and dispersing these crucial building blocks of planets and life itself into the interstellar medium. This process, known as nucleosynthesis, is integral to cosmic chemical enrichment, shaping the composition of subsequent generations of stars and galaxies. 
    
  Beyond their role in elemental production, supernovae release immense amounts of energy, profoundly impacting their surroundings. This energy input drives processes like star formation and galactic winds, influencing the overall dynamics and evolution of galaxies. Moreover, supernovae, particularly Type Ia, serve as standard candles for measuring cosmic distances, pivotal in our understanding of the universe's expansion and the discovery of dark energy.
