  • Time and the Multi-Universe
    E. Hughes
    Time, time travel, black holes, the origins of the universe, and the thirteen month calendar are explored in this philosophical look at the Universe. This book is not about humanity’s philosophical relationship with time, but rather a fundamental understanding of how time functions in our society and universe. We must first define what it is, before we can explore why it is.  ...

  • Exoplanets, The Frontier of Modern Astronomy
    DENZEL CARTER JACKSON
    Exoplanets have been found in a relatively small region of our galaxy, the Milky Way. According to NASA’s Kepler Space Telescope, there are more planets in the universe than stars.Our solar system’s exoplanets comprise similar elements to our planets, but their mixtures may differ. By measuring the sizes (diameters) and masses (weights) of exoplanets, we can determine their com...
