In Search of Dark Matter (Springer Praxis Books / Space Exploration)

In Search of Dark Matter (Springer Praxis Books / Space Exploration)
by Ken Freeman (Author), Geoff McNamara (Author)

The dark matter problem is one of the most fundamental and profoundly difficult problems in the history of science. Not knowing what makes up most of the mass in the Universe goes to the heart of our understanding of the Universe and our place in it. In Search of Dark Matter is the story of the emergence of the dark matter problem, from the initial 'discovery' of dark matter by Jan Oort to contemporary explanations for the nature of dark matter and its role in the origin and evolution of the...

Comet/Asteroid Impacts and Human Society: An Interdisciplinary Approach

Comet/Asteroid Impacts and Human Society: An Interdisciplinary Approach
by Peter T. Bobrowsky (Editor), Hans Rickman (Editor)

In 1908 an atmospheric explosion in northern Siberia released energy equivalent to 15 Mton of TNT. Can a comparable or larger NEO affect us again? When the next NEO strikes Earth will it be large enough to destroy a city? Will the climate change significantly? Can archaeology and anthropology provide insights into the expected cultural responses with NEO interactions? Does society have a true grasp of the actual risks involved? Is the Great Depression a good model for the economic collapse...
