Sinopse

Space Travel Mechanics offers a comprehensive exploration of the physics underpinning space travel, focusing on spacecraft propulsion and orbital mechanics. It bridges theoretical physics with aerospace engineering, explaining how rocket propulsion, including specific impulse and propellant selection, enables us to overcome Earth's gravity. The book further elucidates orbital mechanics, detailing Kepler’s laws and orbital maneuvers like Hohmann transfers, crucial for planning complex space missions. 

 
The book progressively builds knowledge, starting with Newtonian mechanics and basic propulsion concepts before advancing to trajectory optimization and interplanetary travel. A key argument highlights the necessity of understanding fundamental physics to advance space travel capabilities. For example, understanding gravity assists allows spacecraft to alter their paths using a planet's gravity, saving significant fuel.

 
What distinguishes "Space Travel Mechanics" is its clear, concise explanations, making complex topics accessible to students, engineers, and space enthusiasts alike. By blending theoretical analysis with practical examples derived from NASA and ESA missions, it provides valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities of space exploration.

    How well do you know the ground beneath your feet? A primer for every Earth resident, by Harvard’s acclaimed geologist. 
    “A sublime chronicle of our planet."" –Booklist, STARRED review 
    Odds are, where you’re standing was once cooking under a roiling sea of lava, crushed by a towering sheet of ice, rocked by a nearby meteor strike, or perhaps choked by poison gases, drowned beneath ocean, perched atop a mountain range, or roamed by fearsome monsters. Probably most or even all of the above.  
    The story of our home planet and the organisms spread across its surface is far more spectacular than any Hollywood blockbuster, filled with enough plot twists to rival a bestselling thriller. But only recently have we begun to piece together the whole mystery into a coherent narrative. Drawing on his decades of field research and up-to-the-minute understanding of the latest science, renowned geologist Andrew H. Knoll delivers a rigorous yet accessible biography of Earth, charting our home planet's epic 4.6 billion-year story. Placing twenty first-century climate change in deep context, A Brief History of Earth is an indispensable look at where we’ve been and where we’re going. 
    Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

    Sometimes, looking at your past can give you the strength to move forward. As the classic symptoms of Parkinsons disease began to take control of Simon's life, he became a shadow of his former self. After months of fighting to keep the disease in check, Simon finally found the strength to tell his family and even managed to book an appointment with a neurologist. Sadly, at a time when he needed an experienced health care professional to help him fight his corner, what he got was a cold, uncaring man who clearly had no time for his situation. However, his initial assessment proved to be 100% accurate; at just 36 years of age, Simon was told he had Parkinsons disease. The desire to produce a written account of his life for his immediate family and friends led to A Life Worth Living. Ingram looks back at his life, often with humour and pathos, and decides that the way to keep going is to appreciate the life he has led. The only way to fight is to appreciate what battles he has already fought and won. After all, what else makes a life worth living? Ingram's first-hand account of his life from his early childhood to teen years to his first signs of the debilitating disease give an insider's look at not just a 'disease' but a man.

    In 6,000 food products, aspartame is found everywhere in so-called diet nutrition. However, several scientific studies show that this sweetener is harmful for children, pregnant women and epileptics. Used to replace sugar and reduce the caloric intake of food, aspartame actually works in the opposite direction, it develops obesity and diabetes. In this first in-depth investigation of the diet industry, Henriette Chardak exposes a health scandal. She shows why the use of aspartame continues despite the risks it generates. How people were pushed into consuming these chemical substances—whose harmlessness had been questioned for many years. Between Chicago and Tokyo, top-secret files and complacency of the authorities, the author offers us a breathless thriller, behind-the-scenes of the world chemical industry. The story begins in Chicago and ends up in our plates and our medicines. A real cold case, where readers will find the keys to a thriller that was played out in the 1970s. They will make up their minds about the usefulness—or danger—of this fake sugar.
    Two scoops:
    • super sweeteners from aspartame are given to cattle to make them grow fatter faster;
    • Japan, which manufactures aspartame, does not consume it.
    This book also lays bare what is was not meant to be told—the conflicts of interest, colossal stakes, secret files forbidden to the public.
