Fulcrum and Torsion of the...

Jorge C. Trainini, Mario...

In this new book, Trainini and his team attempt a step forward and make a series of proposals that come to complete cardiac anatomy, physiology and mechanics. Reading this new investigation is a pleasure that demands continuous attention, so that our "neuronal boxes" do not rebel against the effort it means to sometimes destroy what we have firmly installed in them. The text should be read slowly, as it was never easy to tread in swamp-limited grounds and, as in the ascent to the summit of a difficult mountain, stop now and then to take a breath and enjoy the view as we get near the peak, where we will see the final landscape of the new vision. Then we will be conscious that the effort was worthwhile.

Space Telescopes - Astronomy and...

Steff Jaywan

Space telescopes are powerful instruments designed to observe astronomical objects and phenomena from outside the Earth's atmosphere. Unlike ground-based telescopes, which suffer from atmospheric distortion, space telescopes provide a clearer and more detailed view of the universe. They have revolutionized our understanding of the cosmos by capturing images and data across various wavelengths of light, from visible to infrared to ultraviolet and beyond. 
  
The primary advantage of space telescopes is their ability to operate above the Earth's atmosphere. The atmosphere absorbs and scatters light, which limits the capabilities of ground-based observations. By placing telescopes in space, astronomers can avoid these issues and achieve several key benefits. Space telescopes have an unobstructed view, not being affected by weather, daylight, or atmospheric turbulence, allowing for continuous and consistent observations. They also have broader wavelength coverage, as Earth's atmosphere blocks many wavelengths of light, such as ultraviolet and X-rays. This enables space telescopes to detect and study these wavelengths, offering a more comprehensive view of the universe. Moreover, without atmospheric distortion, space telescopes can capture sharper and more detailed images.
