  Ancient trees stand as sentinels against all odds while Earth and its people have changed around them. Award-winning author Anthony D. Fredericks examines their awe-inspiring longevity and evolutionary intelligence, drawing on expert interviews, scientific research, and a remarkable reverence for the environment. 
   
  Fredericks focuses on ten of the oldest trees in the United States, ranging from the 1,200-year-old Seven Sisters Oak, a Southern icon draped in Spanish moss that has survived several hurricanes, to the Palmer’s Oak in Southern California that has cloned itself for 13,000 years to stay alive. Other trees include bristlecone pines, regarded as some of the oldest trees in the world, the quaking aspen known as Pando with more than 45,000 identical branches, the Bennett Juniper that grows on land heavily glaciated by the last ice age, and sequoias, the world’s largest trees. Each tree profile opens with time travel stories that provide global historical context and explore the geography at the time when the tree took root.  
   
  In present day, Fredericks walks among many of the trees so that readers may too. His immersive perspective captures the trees’ grandeur and sage presence while exploring the science behind their resilience. 
   
  A tree that’s lived more than 1,000 years is living archaeology—a tangible connection between the planet’s past and present that helps us better understand its future. Fredericks investigates these extended lifespans and their implications on ecology and humanity. In Search of the Old Ones marvels at thecomplexity of roots, the determination of growth, and the wisdom of forests.  
   
  Beneath spreading canopies, readers will experience the strength and magnificence of the country’s most wondrous trees. 
   
  A supplemental PDF is included with this audiobook.

  Stars in the Dark - The...

  For centuries, humans have gazed into the night sky, believing that what they saw—stars, planets, glowing nebulae—was all there was. But as our tools for exploring the universe improved, scientists began to notice something strange. The visible matter in galaxies simply wasn’t enough to explain how those galaxies moved and behaved. Something unseen, something invisible, seemed to be exerting a powerful influence on everything. 
  In the 1930s, astronomer Fritz Zwicky was studying a group of galaxies known as the Coma Cluster. When he measured how fast the galaxies within the cluster were moving, he realized they were traveling far too quickly to be held together by the visible matter alone. According to the laws of gravity, the cluster should have torn itself apart. Zwicky proposed that some kind of “missing mass” must be present, something that added gravitational force without emitting light. He called it “dark matter.” At the time, his idea was mostly ignored. 
  Decades later, in the 1970s, American astronomer Vera Rubin provided even more compelling evidence. She was studying the rotation of spiral galaxies, expecting that stars farther from the center would orbit more slowly, just as planets farther from the sun move more slowly in our solar system. But that wasn’t what she found. The outer stars were moving just as fast as those closer in, a finding that didn’t make sense if only visible matter was involved. Her work suggested that some unseen material—something with mass—was surrounding the galaxies in large halos, exerting gravitational pull and affecting their motion. This was dark matter at work.
