Sinopsis

Cosmic Deities explores how ancient cultures used mythology and religious beliefs to understand the cosmos, examining the fascinating intersection of celestial deities, creation myths, and early cosmological models. It reveals how civilizations worldwide, from ancient Mesopotamia to the Americas, personified stars, planets, and cosmic forces, attributing divine roles to them. 

 
These myths weren't just stories; they were early attempts to explain the universe, reflecting observations and cultural values. For example, a culture's understanding of planetary movements might be encoded in the actions of its planetary deities. 

 
The book delves into the attributes of stellar and planetary deities, analyzing creation myths and how societies mapped the heavens. Each chapter builds upon the last, first introducing fundamental concepts and then exploring thematic elements like the significance of constellations and cosmic geography. 

 
By integrating mythological analysis with historical and scientific contexts, Cosmic Deities offers a unique perspective on the origins of human curiosity about the universe and how early civilizations used available knowledge to make sense of it all.

    Cities are complex economic organisms, pulsing with intricate networks of human activity, capital flow, and systemic interactions that define our modern social landscapes. In the dynamic realm of urban economics, every street corner, housing development, and land transaction tells a story of economic forces, policy decisions, and human aspirations that collectively shape the growth, opportunity, and challenges of urban environments.

    Once upon a time, humans lived in intimate relationship with nature. 
     
     
     
    Whether disillusioned by the dominant church or unfulfilled by traditional expressions of faith, many of us long for a deeper spirituality. Victoria Loorz certainly did. Coping with an unraveling vocation, identity, and planet, Loorz turned to the wanderings of spiritual leaders and the sanctuary of the natural world, eventually cofounding the Wild Church Network and Seminary of the Wild. 
     
     
     
    With an ecospiritual lens on biblical narratives and a fresh look at a community larger than our own species, Church of the Wild uncovers the wild roots of faith and helps us deepen our commitment to a suffering earth by falling in love with it—and calling it church. Through mystical encounters with wild deer, whispers from a scrubby oak tree, wordless conversation with a cougar, and more, Loorz helps us connect to a love that literally holds the world together—a love that calls us into communion with all creatures.

    On April 24, 1990, the Space Shuttle Discovery lifted off from Kennedy Space Center on the Space Shuttle Program’s 35th mission, but this was no ordinary mission. In its payload bay, Discovery was carrying the Hubble Space Telescope, with the objective of putting the telescope into orbit. 	The Hubble telescope, working in space less than 400 miles above the Earth’s surface, produced photos of galaxies previously unseen as they existed only 500 million years before the “Big Bang.” It was fortuitous that Hubble outlived its anticipated lifespan by many years, because the launch of its successor, the James Webb Space Telescope, was delayed by 15 years.   
    	Several new obstacles delayed the launch, but NASA believed that it was finally prepared to proceed in 2020 after completion of construction four years prior. Then came the COVID pandemic, and 2020 became the year of “delayed events,” with the launch of the most sophisticated space telescope in history proving to be no exception.  
    	The increase in excitement was palpable. Scientists had viewed much of the universe through Hubble, almost as it was when it was formed, but they learned that none of these galaxies were the first ones formed. Then ultimately realized that “Hubble wasn’t the right instrument to detect those first galaxies.” “The farther we can see in space, the farther we can see in time…and that’s not a metaphor. That’s actually literally true,” explained scientist Amber Straughn. The Webb Space Telescope represents “looking in a part of space that we’ve never seen before.” The telescope will be able to detect the earliest galaxies because of its unparalleled sensitivity. Another factor is the kind of light it will collect, “light that our eyes aren’t designed to see.”
