Sinopsis

Photography in Space explores the captivating intersection of science and art through the lens of space imaging. It unveils how capturing images beyond Earth has revolutionized our comprehension of the cosmos. The book traces the evolution of space photography, from rudimentary astronomical photography to advanced digital sensors used in modern telescopes, highlighting the technological leaps that allow us to witness celestial wonders. Early images revealed that the universe extends far beyond our own galaxy, sparking a revolution in astronomy. The book investigates how space photography serves as a powerful tool for scientific discovery and influences human culture. It highlights the unique challenges of space imaging, such as radiation and extreme temperatures. Beginning with a historical overview, it progresses through the technological advancements, scientific breakthroughs, and cultural impacts of space photography. The narrative emphasizes that space photography is not merely documentation but a catalyst for expanding our knowledge and appreciation of the universe. The book is structured into three main parts: the evolution of imaging technology, the scientific discoveries enabled by these images, and their cultural impact. It draws upon archival images from NASA and ESA, along with insights from scientists and engineers, to provide a comprehensive understanding. The book also addresses ongoing debates about the role of image processing in space photography, acknowledging diverse perspectives on image interpretation.

    As more farmers move to a regenerative approach to their farming practices, many turn to Ewan who has been farming this way for decades, providing practical answers for practical farmers through growing the greatest soil on earth. 
    Ewan, faced with a failing farm and 'empty pockets', realised that doing things the way they had always been done was what had gotten him to the point of 'farming off the cliff slowly'. Asking the question 'What is soil?' he embarked on a journey of research and trials resulting in a deep understanding of the delicate interaction of the soil, biology, nutrient, plant and ultimately health of the animal and ourselves. 
    Through observation of phenomena, study of concepts and testing Ewan finds solutions to problems that are facing farmers today - always a beneficial outcome. 'Study books and observe nature; if they do not agree, throw away the books' (Albrecht). 
    This book chronicles the pursuit of knowledge and excellence in farming - everything is connected to the soil. If the soil is failing then so is the produce and profitability. In this world of clean and green, Ewan is able to bring back the natural nitrogen cycle in the plant (nitrogen doesn't need to be from a bag) whilst growing and measuring deep carbon levels, beneficial to the water cycle as well. Nature will repair itself and this book will explain how. 
    With the patent for 'Probitas' - a product that amplifies the natural electrical potential of the earth and with his extensive knowledge of soil silicas and free aluminium, Ewan is a force that Big Ag tried to eliminate. 
    Farmers are increasingly looking to heal their land, maintain healthy and productive animals and revitalise and regenerate their farming life and enthusiasm. 
    Ewan puts complex concepts through the 'simplifier' to allow anyone to understand, linking soil-plant-animal-human health. He is often told that nobody else has their feet in the farm like he does.

    Particle physics is the branch of physics that explores the fundamental particles that constitute matter and the forces that govern their interactions. At its core, particle physics aims to understand the building blocks of the universe, which are invisible to the naked eye but form the essence of everything around us. This field of study delves into the smallest scale of nature, where particles like quarks, leptons, and bosons interact in ways that determine the structure and behavior of all matter. 
    The development of particle physics began with the early studies of atoms, but as scientific knowledge advanced, it became clear that atoms themselves were not indivisible. The discovery of the electron in the late 19th century marked the beginning of this journey. Subsequent advancements led to the identification of other subatomic particles, such as protons and neutrons, which make up the atomic nucleus. These findings, however, were only the beginning, and as technology advanced, especially with the creation of particle accelerators, scientists began probing even deeper into the atomic structure. 
    A pivotal moment in particle physics came with the formulation of the Standard Model, a comprehensive theory that describes the electromagnetic, weak, and strong forces and classifies all known elementary particles. According to the Standard Model, all matter is made up of fundamental particles, and their interactions are mediated by force-carrier particles called bosons. This model successfully explains the behavior of particles in a wide range of experiments, and it has been verified by numerous experiments, such as those conducted at large particle accelerators like the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The discovery of the Higgs boson at CERN in 2012 provided strong experimental confirmation of the Standard Model and earned the physicists involved the Nobel Prize.
