Sinopsis

Space Transportation explores the captivating world of how we leave Earth, detailing the engineering and physics behind rockets and spacecraft. It's more than just rocket science; it examines humanity's relentless pursuit of pushing boundaries. The book uniquely combines historical context with technical insights, showcasing the human element driving space exploration.

 
Did you know that rocket propulsion relies on converting chemical energy into thrust to overcome Earth's gravity? Or that the Space Shuttle program, despite its challenges, provided invaluable lessons in reusable spacecraft design?

 
The book journeys from the early days of rocketry and the intense Space Race to the complexities of the Space Shuttle and current trends in commercial space ventures. It highlights the importance of ongoing innovation in space transportation for scientific advancement and potentially, long-term survival. By examining NASA mission reports and engineering specifications, the book supports its arguments with solid data. Ethical and societal implications of space exploration are also discussed.

 
As the book progresses, it transitions from the fundamentals of rocket propulsion to detailed analyses of space programs, and finally, to future technologies.

  • Nineteen Reservoirs - On Their Creation and the Promise of Water for New York City - cover

    Nineteen Reservoirs - On Their...

    Without the nineteen upstate reservoirs that supply its water, New York City as we know it would not exist today. 
     
     
     
    From 1907 to 1967, a network of reservoirs and aqueducts was built across more than one million acres in upstate New York, including Greene, Delaware, Sullivan, and Ulster Counties. This feat of engineering served to meet New York City's ever-increasing need for water, sustaining its inhabitants and cementing it as a center of industry. West of the Hudson, it meant that twenty-six villages, with their farms, forest lands, orchards, and quarries, were bought for a fraction of their value, demolished, and submerged, profoundly altering ecosystems in ways we will never fully appreciate. 
     
     
     
    This paradox of victory and loss is at the heart of Nineteen Reservoirs, Lucy Sante's meticulous account of how New York City secured its seemingly limitless fresh water supply, and why it cannot be taken for granted. In inimitable form, Sante plumbs the historical record to surface forgotten archives and images, bringing lost places back to life on the page. Her immaculately calibrated sensitivity honors both perspectives on New York City's reservoir system and helps us understand the full import of its creation.

    American Monsters: The History...

    People have always been fascinated with the hidden, the mysterious, and the unexplained. Every society has its tall tales and ghost stories, its odd legends, and heroes. Also, every society has its stories of strange beasts, dangerous or benign, that live in the twilight world between the everyday and the legendary. Through most of history, people have been closely tied to nature, hunting in forests and having an intimate knowledge of the animals in their regions. So-called “primitive” peoples were walking encyclopedias of the natural world, and yet most believed there were more creatures lurking in those woods than the ones they usually encountered. Even as the world becomes more connected, the belief in strange creatures continues as strong as ever. 
    	As a result, in one sense it shouldn’t be surprising that people across the United States have reported seeing weird cryptids, including giant birds, sea serpents, wolfmen, and a creature so bizarre it defies any rational classification. The only thing these monsters have in common is that all have been seen regularly and reported by seemingly sober, rational witnesses in the United States, even as conventional science suggests these monsters cannot exist and that all the sightings are mistakes, misidentifications, or hoaxes.  
    	In some cases, this may be true, but in others, it’s harder to accept. For example, one story about a 10-year-old boy being carried off by a giant bird was witnessed by several other people. Likewise, the Gloucester sea serpent seen by hundreds of people and carefully and scientifically investigated, and during one week in 1909, hundreds if not thousands of people reported seeing the Jersey Devil. Sightings of wolf-like creatures walking on two legs have been reported for more than 100 years.

    The universe is filled with countless forces that shape our world, yet many of these forces remain invisible to the human eye. These unseen forces have a profound impact on our lives, even though we often don't fully comprehend their influence. Some are well-known, like gravity, while others, such as dark matter, remain shrouded in mystery. 
    Gravity is perhaps the most familiar invisible force, as it affects everything in the universe. It pulls objects toward each other, dictating the movement of planets, stars, and galaxies. The force of gravity keeps our feet firmly planted on Earth and governs the orbits of celestial bodies. While its effects are clear, gravity itself is not something we can see, touch, or directly measure. Instead, scientists observe how it influences the motion of objects in space, helping them calculate the mass and structure of planets and stars. 
    Another crucial invisible force is the electromagnetic field. Electromagnetic forces govern the interactions between charged particles, such as electrons and protons. These forces are responsible for phenomena like light, magnetism, and electricity. Electromagnetic waves, like radio waves, microwaves, and visible light, travel through space and allow us to communicate, see, and power our devices. Though we can't physically see these forces, we experience their effects constantly. The devices we rely on daily, from smartphones to microwave ovens, operate because of electromagnetic interactions.

    The answers to life's biggest questions can be found by looking at the little things . . . 
     
     
     
    Though you may not be able to see them with the naked eye, parasites—miniscule life forms that live inside other organisms—inhabit our everyday lives. From headlice to bird droppings, litterboxes to unfiltered water, you have brushed up against the most common way of life on our planet. 
     
     
     
    In this unique book, John Janovy Jr., one of the world's preeminent experts on parasites, reveals what can humans learn from the most reviled yet misunderstood animals on Earth: lice, tapeworms, flukes, and maggots that can eat a lizard from the inside, and how these lessons help us negotiate our own complicated world. Whether we're learning to adapt to adverse conditions, accept our own limitations, or process new information in an ever-changing landscape—we can be sure a parasite did it first. 
     
      
     
    At once peculiar and profound, Life Lessons from a Parasite makes a case for using knowledge of the natural world, with all its wonderful mysteries and quirks, to tackle our worst problems.
