  A Brief History of Timekeeping -...

  Predating written language and marching on through human history, the desire for ever-better timekeeping has spurred technological innovation and sparked theories that radically reshaped our understanding of the universe and our place in it. 
   
   
   
  Chad Orzel, a physicist and bestselling author, continues his tradition of demystifying thorny scientific concepts by using the clocks and calendars central to our everyday activities as a jumping-off point to explore the science underlying the ways we keep track of our time. Ancient solstice markers depend on the basic astrophysics of our solar system; mechanical clocks owe their development to Newtonian physics; and the ultra-precise atomic timekeeping that enables GPS hinges on the predictable oddities of quantum mechanics. 
   
    
   
  Along the way, Orzel visits the delicate negotiations involved in Gregorian calendar reform, the intricate and entirely unique system employed by the Maya, and how the problem of synchronizing clocks at different locations ultimately required us to abandon the idea of time as an absolute and universal quantity. Sharp and engaging, A Brief History of Timekeeping is a story not just about the science of sundials, sandglasses, and mechanical clocks, but also the politics of calendars and time zones, the philosophy of measurement, and the nature of space and time itself.

  The New World on Mars - What We...

  When Robert Zubrin published his classic book The Case for Mars a quarter century ago, setting foot on the Red Planet seemed a fantasy. Today, manned exploration is certain, and as Zubrin affirms in The New World on Mars, so too is colonization. 
   
   
   
  We will settle on Mars, and with our knowledge of the planet, analyzed in depth by Dr. Zubrin, we will utilize the resources and tackle the challenges that await us. What we will we build? Populous Martian city-states producing air, water, food, power, and more. Zubrin's Martian economy will pay for necessary imports and generate income from varied enterprises, such as real estate sales—homes that are airtight and protect against cosmic space radiation, with fish-farm aquariums positioned overhead, letting in sunlight and blocking cosmic rays while providing fascinating views. Zubrin even predicts the Red Planet customs, social relations, and government that will overcome traditional forms of oppression to draw Earth immigrants. 
   
    
   
  With all of this in place, Zubrin's Red Planet will become a pressure cooker for invention, benefiting humans on Earth, Mars, and beyond. We can create this magnificent future, making life better, less fatalistic. The New World on Mars proves that there is no point killing each other over provinces and limited resources when, together, we can create planets.

  Sleep (432Hz): Resonating with the body's natural circadian rhythms, this 432Hz collection promotes relaxation and sleep readiness while enhancing the production of melatonin, the sleep hormone, and decreasing sleep latency (the time it takes to fall asleep). It's also associated with delta brain wave activity, which predominates during deep, restorative sleep stages. 
   
  Sound therapy works best when you’re an active participant in your own self-care. Allow yourself the space and time to truly feel these frequencies, process your emotions, and release any tension or negativity. It's a journey of self-discovery and healing, where you can explore the depths of your inner world in a safe, nurturing audio environment. Dedicate these moments to connect with your inner healer, acknowledging the power you hold within to influence your own physical and emotional state. Remember, this is more than just passive listening; it's an active process of transformation and healing. Whether you're seeking relief, balance, or simply a moment of peace, let these healing soundscapes guide you toward a more harmonious state of being.
