  As you all might know solar system is a gravitationally bound system. It consists of the sun and all the objects that orbit it. These objects might orbit the sun either directly or indirectly. The eight planets are the largest objects that orbit the sun directly. Rests of them are significantly smaller objects such as dwarf planets, small solar system bodies etc. It is said that solar system was formed about 4.6 billion years ago. The reason behind such gigantic formation was gravitational collapse of an interstellar molecular cloud that has the size even bigger than our current solar system. 
  Most amount of the system’s mass is packed within the sun itself. A significant amount of remaining mass is contained in Jupiter. Main eight planets are often studied in two groups, inner planets and outer planets. Inner planets are mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. These planets are often referred as terrestrial planets since their primary elements are rock and metals. Remaining outer planets are also referred as giant planets since they are noticeably massive compared to inner planets. Two largest among them that are Jupiter and Venus are known as gas giants since they are mainly formed with hydrogen and helium. Remaining two outermost planets are known as ice giants (Uranus & Neptune). These ice giants are formed with elements with high melting points compared to hydrogen and helium. These elements are called ices such as water, ammonia and methane. All planets possess their unique orbit that is almost circular. These orbits lie within a flat surface that is known as ecliptic. 
  Along with these super large planets, there are smaller objects too. Between the orbits of mars and Jupiter, there lies a group of objects such as terrestrial planets or rocks and metals, etc. This area or group is known as asteroid belt. It is noticeable that our solar system does not end with the orbit of Neptune. Kuiper belt and scattered discs are located beyond Neptune’s orbit. They are also considered a part of our solar system. Kuiper belt and scattered discs are group of trans-Neptunian objects. Most of them are formed with ices. Beyond kuiper belt, population of sednoids have been discover in near past. Together all these populations tend to hold more than ten thousand objects. These objects are large enough to hold their own gravity field around them. Such objects are referred as dwarf planets. Asteroid Ceres and trans-Neptunian objects Pluto and Eris are known dwarf planets. It is noticeable that Pluto was considered a planet in the past, however, not any more. In these regions, other minor objects such as comets, centaurs and interplanetary dust freely travel from on region to another. Six planets from main eight planets, four dwarf planets and many minor objects are orbited by natural satellites that we refer as moon or moons. Almost every outer planer is encircled with planetary rings made of dust and other objects. Venus and Jupiter have a clearly visible planetary ring where Uranus and Neptune have thinner one. In this book we will cover all the basic concepts that will help you to understand vast theories later on in dipper studies.

  Science history is chock full of world-changing innovations that initially faced skepticism and ridicule for being too unconventional: light bulbs, cars, and home computers are just a few examples. In this audiobook, we take a look at the latest out-of-the-box ideas to tackle today’s biggest challenges, including so-called sponge cities designed to combat flooding, technology that mimics photosynthesis to produce fuel, modifying bacteria’s genetic circuits to treat genetic diseases, and much more.

  Ecofarmer's Discovery An - How...

  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.
