Synopsis

Darkest Colors explores the fascinating science behind ultra-black materials, substances capable of absorbing nearly all light. Delving into the physics of light absorption, the book uncovers how materials like Vantablack and Singularity Black are created using nanotechnology and how they manipulate electromagnetic radiation at a quantum level.

 
One intriguing fact is that these materials can render three-dimensional objects as mere silhouettes, highlighting their unique light-trapping abilities. Another insight reveals their use in minimizing stray light in telescopes, enhancing the detection of faint celestial objects.

 
The book progresses logically, first laying the theoretical groundwork in optics and materials science before examining specific examples of ultra-black materials. It details the composition, fabrication methods, and performance of these materials, showcasing their potential in aerospace applications, imaging technologies, and even artistic endeavors. This makes the book valuable for anyone interested in the cutting edge of light manipulation and materials science, from students to researchers.

 
The approach emphasizes verifiable data and established scientific principles, avoiding hyperbole while presenting information in a clear and concise manner. By focusing on the material science and physics, Darkest Colors provides a comprehensive understanding of these innovative materials and their transformative potential across various fields.

In Days Gone By

Mike Blake

"This Poem 'In Days Gone By - Newbury'. Part 3 of the series Nature: Natural Healing.A time when most of the UK Countryside was criss-crossed by small roads and slow moving cars.And the pace was slower and more durable for nature.A delicate balance had been formed between the new motor car and the hedgerows and byways that struck a chord of harmony between each other. Broken now, with too many Motorways and not enough cycle lanes - leaving nature, floundering.I the Author have been writing Poetry for around 20 years. Most of it has been published on Amazon. I write on varied topics which resonate with what I'm thinking or studying at that time.Credit for the artwork on this piece, goes to Mike Miko for his interpretation of this poem into pictorial Art form." His skill in depicting the scenes of the Newbury bypass running through the heart of a forest, with a ghostly image of Swampies son, was truly remarkable.
