  The Indianapolis - The Worst...

  The USS Indianapolis was a Portland-class heavy cruiser of the United States Navy, commissioned in 1932, and it played a vital role in the Pacific theater during World War II. Its most significant and tragic moment came in 1945, during its final mission. The ship was tasked with delivering critical components for the atomic bomb that would later be dropped on Hiroshima, Japan. This mission, which involved transporting the bomb's uranium core to the island of Tinian, was classified, and few knew about the importance of the cargo aboard the ship. 
  After successfully completing its mission and delivering the components to Tinian on July 26, 1945, the Indianapolis set sail for the Philippines, where it would rendezvous with other ships in the Pacific fleet. The ship’s captain, Charles B. McVay III, had orders to take the cruiser directly to its next destination, avoiding the traditional convoy routes to reduce the risk of submarine attack. With the war nearing its end and Japan’s defeat imminent, the ship's journey seemed routine, and there was little concern about the potential dangers ahead. The USS Indianapolis was an experienced and battle-tested ship, having served in key naval engagements throughout the war, including the Battle of Leyte Gulf and the Battle of the Philippine Sea. 
  However, the absence of a convoy left the Indianapolis vulnerable. On the night of July 29, 1945, while traveling through the Philippine Sea, the ship was struck by two torpedoes fired by the Japanese submarine I-58. The attack tore through the hull, causing devastating damage. Within minutes, the ship began to sink, and the crew was thrown into chaos. Many of the crew members perished instantly, while others scrambled into the water, trying to escape the fiery wreckage of the ship. The survivors faced an unimaginable nightmare as they found themselves stranded in the open ocean, with little hope of immediate rescue.

  Time - A Very Short Introduction

  What is time? What does it mean for time to pass? Is it possible to travel in time? What is the difference between the past and future? Until the work of Newton, these questions were purely topics of philosophical speculation. Since then we've learned a great deal about time, and its study has moved from a subject of philosophical reflection to instead became part of the subject matter of physics. 
   
   
   
  This Very Short Introduction introduces listeners to the current physical understanding of the direction of time, from the Second Law of Thermodynamics to the emergence of complexity and life. Jenann Ismael charts the line of development in physical theory from Newton, via Einstein's Theory of Relativity, to the current day. In this new vision, time is one of the dimensions in which the universe is extended alongside the spatial dimensions. The universe appears as a static block of events, in which there is no more a difference between past and future than there is between east and west. Discussing the controversy and philosophical confusion which surrounded the reception of this new vision, Ismael also covers the contemporary mixture of statistical mechanics, cognitive science, and phenomenology that point the way to reconciling the familiar time of everyday sense with the vision of time presented in Einstein's theories.
