  Dazzling photographs and images from space of our planet's nightlights have captivated public attention for decades. In such images, patterns are immediately seen based on the presence or absence of light: a distinct coastline, bodies of water recognizable by their dark silhouettes, and the faint tendrils of roads and highways emanating from the brilliant blobs of light that are our modern, well-lit cities. For nearly 25 years, satellite images of Earth at night have served as a fundamental research tool, while also stoking public curiosity. These images paint an expansive and revealing picture, showing how humans have illuminated and shaped the planet in profound ways since the invention of the light bulb 140 years ago.

  Cougars on the Cliff - One Man's...

  Maurice Hornocker is recognized worldwide as the first scientist to unravel the secrets of America's most enigmatic predator—the mountain lion. A story of redemption, this book is a memoir about the never-before-told adventures, challenges, and controversies surrounding Hornocker's groundbreaking study of cougars in the remote reaches of the Idaho Primitive Area. 
   
   
   
  North America's biggest cat was once killed for bounty dollars, slaughtered with impunity and driven toward extinction. But today's cat of intrigue, despite our lingering fears and misconceptions, has returned to much of its native range in the western United States and gained respect as a predator integral and necessary to wild ecosystems. This turnaround was triggered by one man: Maurice Hornocker. Cougars on the Cliff recounts the early years of his research when he tracked lions following a dog's nose and footprints in the snow—before telemetry was available. Hornocker was first to learn that mountain lions living in stable populations limit their own numbers through territoriality and a concept he called "mutual avoidance." This insight flew in the face of long-held beliefs that cougars were prolific and wanton killers that needed to be controlled as vermin. Thanks to Hornocker's work, today cougars can be found throughout the West and have even started to reclaim their place in New England.

  The Shadow Universe - Exploring...

  For most of human history, the night sky was a mystery filled with countless stars twinkling in the darkness. Ancient civilizations saw patterns in the stars and used them to guide their calendars, stories, and navigation. Yet, behind those points of light lay something even more vast and perplexing—the dark space between them. It wasn't until the development of modern astronomy that scientists began to seriously consider what might exist in the dark regions of the universe. At first, darkness was assumed to be simply empty space, a void where no stars or planets resided. But as our tools improved and our questions deepened, we started to understand that darkness in the cosmos holds far more meaning than we originally thought. 
  The idea that the universe might be filled with something unseen first gained traction in the early 20th century. Astronomers like Fritz Zwicky noticed strange behaviors in galaxy clusters. When calculating the mass of these clusters based on the visible matter, the numbers didn’t add up. Galaxies were moving too fast to be held together by gravity from the matter we could see. Zwicky proposed the existence of "dunkle Materie" or dark matter—something invisible but exerting gravitational pull. This was one of the first scientific suggestions that dark space might not be empty at all, but rather filled with mysterious forces and substances. 
  At the same time, other areas of study began to reveal more about what darkness might mean in a cosmological context. Observations of cosmic microwave background radiation showed that the universe had a very specific structure after the Big Bang, influenced by matter both visible and invisible. These early echoes from the origin of the universe suggested a cosmic framework shaped in part by things we couldn't directly detect. The darkness, once thought to be empty, was influencing the evolution of everything we could see.
