Sinopse

Radio Telescope Networks unveils the fascinating world of global radio telescope networks, explaining how scientists create Earth-sized virtual observatories using Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI). This technology synchronizes data from telescopes worldwide, achieving unprecedented resolution to explore the universe's deepest secrets.

 
The book delves into the intricate technology behind these networks, including high-precision timing systems and sophisticated correlation algorithms, and showcases the scientific breakthroughs enabled by VLBI, such as probing galaxy formation. The book emphasizes how these collaborative scientific endeavors push the boundaries of knowledge and technological innovation.

 
Beginning with an introduction to radio astronomy and interferometry, it traces the evolution of VLBI through its technical challenges to the scientific discoveries it has made possible. It presents a holistic view, integrating technical details with scientific outcomes, and highlights the collaborative nature of the field, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in astronomy and technology.

    Infinite Darkness - How Dark...

    Dark matter is one of the most intriguing mysteries in modern science. Despite making up approximately 27% of the universe, it cannot be seen or detected directly using traditional instruments. The name "dark matter" itself stems from the fact that it does not emit, absorb, or reflect light, making it invisible to the electromagnetic spectrum. However, its existence is inferred from its gravitational effects on visible matter, such as galaxies, stars, and other celestial objects. Without dark matter, the motion of galaxies would not make sense, as they appear to be moving far too quickly for the amount of visible matter they contain. This unseen substance holds galaxies together and ensures the stability of the universe’s large-scale structure. 
    The story of dark matter begins in the 1930s with the work of Swiss astronomer Fritz Zwicky. While studying the Coma galaxy cluster, Zwicky found that the visible matter in the galaxies was not enough to account for the way the galaxies were moving. He proposed that there must be some form of unseen mass providing additional gravitational pull, which he called "dark matter." Although his hypothesis was met with skepticism, it laid the foundation for further research into this invisible force. 
    Over the following decades, scientists gathered more indirect evidence supporting the existence of dark matter. In the 1970s, astronomer Vera Rubin and her colleague Kent Ford observed the rotation of galaxies and found that stars on the outer edges were moving much faster than expected. Based on the laws of physics and the visible mass, these stars should have been moving more slowly and would have been flung out of their orbits. The only explanation for their high speed was the presence of a significant amount of unseen mass—dark matter.

    An exploration of the transformative ways in which nature has inspired the technological advancement of humankind.
    
    Biomimetics literally means emulating biology - and in a broader sense the term covers technological advances where the original inspiration came from nature. The Earth is a vast laboratory where the mechanisms of natural selection have enabled evolutionary solutions to be developed to a wide range of problems.
    
    In this new title in the Hot Science series, science writer Brian Clegg looks at how humans have piggybacked on natural experimentation, redeploying a solution to create things that make our lives easier. He looks at how the hooks on burdock seeds inspired the creation of Velcro, how the stickiness of the feet of geckos and frogs has been used to create gripping surfaces, such as tyre treads, and how even the most basic optical enhancement in the form of spectacles is itself a form of biomimetics.
