Beyond the Orion Nebula by Edgar J. Guedez Pdf

The Alidonian System of Worlds is in turmoil. Princess Arianne Alidan runs away from her cousin, Prince Narbonne-the leader of a rebellion trying to dethrone her father-setting course for a hidden base located beyond a nebula in an unexplored region of the galaxy. But her fleet gets thrown out of course by a cosmic event. When the fleet comes out of hyperspace, badly battered, they take refuge in an unknown solar system, with a habitable planet, The Waterworld. There, the illness of her sister, Princess Amelie Alidan forces them to set up a base. When Amelie meets Gus Schneider, a former air force pilot, and falls in love with him, Princess Arianne devices a scheme to fortify the remnants of her fleet, hoping for a rendezvous with her people, and confront Prince Narbonne in a final and decisive battle.

The Orion Nebula by C. Robert O'Dell,Professor of Physics and Astronomy C Robert O'Dell Pdf

The Orion Nebula is the closest center of massive star formation—a stellar nursery that reproduces the conditions in which our own Sun formed some 4.5 billion years ago. In this book, O’Dell explains what the Nebula is, how it shines, its role in giving birth to stars, and the insights it affords into how common (or rare) planet formation might be.

The Orion Nebula Adventure by William J. Hughes Pdf

Years ago, Katie, Jennifer, and Ben Graham lost their mother in a presumed terrorist attack at one of Earth's universities in the space colonies. After this attack, which led to the conflict known as the Mars Wars, Katie, her siblings, and their father each found their own way through life and coping with their loss-apart from each other. However, when they learn of the true source of the terrorist attack, their paths align again, and a rebellion against the Interstellar Alliance-an organization originally set up by the United Nations to govern Earth's colonies in outer space-brews. Using the vast resources of Falcon intergalactic, the company co-owned by their friend and father, and with the aide of the elite combat unit known as Panthers, the Graham family and their friends learn that they're stronger together than they ever could have been apart. Join author William Hughes in The Orion Nebula Adventure-a four-part tale of Katie, Jennifer, and Ben's adventures from Mars to Pluto and beyond in their attempt to thwart the corrupt control of the Interstellar Alliance. Will they succeed, or will they too become casualties in the wake of the Interstellar Alliance?

Beyond the Stars by Paolo Saraceno Pdf

"The first part discusses the origins of everything, from the Big Bang to humankind. It follows the long course of evolution - from original matter to the formation of more complex structures, from the furthest galaxies to the nearest stars, from planets to organic molecules, from the first and most elementary forms of life through to the reptiles, the dinosaurs and the advent of man. The second part traces the history of the Earth and evaluates the risks of extinction in the future as predicted by scientists. Is the Earth the only habitable planet in the Universe? This question initiates the discussion on the importance of the Earth's position in the solar system and the significance of our geologically alive planet. The final part is dedicated to the search for extraterrestrial beings with identifiable life forms. It also describes attempts for searching, from the past to the near future." --Publisher's website.

Beyond the Planet of the Wind by Paolo Aresi Pdf

Fantascienza - novel (186 pagine) - An incredible journey through the interstellar space mysteries. Winner of Urania Award 2004 From Mars to the stars: this is the mission of the starship Leonardo da Vinci. Planet after planet, wonders and mysteries came along to reveal a superior design: from a bare world, where powerful winds modeled the rocks into spooky spears and pinnacles, to a planet where hidden artefacts point to other worlds; and to Ambra, the planet with a huge, gigantic marble stairway half a mile wide, ten miles long, six miles high. An invitation to climb it, but with a rule: you can do it only on foot. “I enjoyed Beyond the planet of the wind a lot – it’s a very interesting and intelligent book, with great speculation about deep time and the future of the cosmos” – Alastair Reynolds From one on the best Italian science fiction authors, the Urania Award winning novel that anticipated Interstellar. Paolo Aresi was born in Bergamo, Italy, in 1958. He graduated in Arts and works as a journalist with L’Eco di Bergamo newspaper. He published his first science fiction novel Oberon, l’avamposto fra i ghiacci (“Oberon the Outpost in the Ice”) in 1987. In 1992 he won the Courmayeur Award with the short story Stige. In 1995 he published Toshi si sveglia nel cuore della notte (“Toshi Wakes Up in the Middle of the Night”), a crime novel. In 2004 he won the Urania Award with Oltre il pianeta del vento (Beyond The Planet of the Wind) In the novel Ho pedalato fino alle stelle (2008) he told about his passion for bycicles. A new science fiction novel, the post-apocalyptic L’amore al tempo dei treni perduti (“Love in the Times of Lost Trains”) was published in 2010, and in 2011 Mondadori published Korolev, a tribute to the Chief Designer of the Russian space program.

Star People by Hinda jonathan Pdf

The Star People contains a short science fiction story in response to the 2010 BP oil spill. I awoke early in the morning to write the first draft after my distress at seeing the pictures of animals covered in the filth of that oil disaster. As my concern for ecological matters grew, I knew I had to publish this story. Poetry from the 1960s to December 2017 is included after the story as inspirational messages of hope. These years of poetry reflect my spiritual belief system that includes G-d's creation of higher life forms on other planets.

Seven Wonders beyond the Solar System by Ron Miller Pdf

From earliest times, humans have wondered about the sky above them. People looked at distant stars and wondered what they were made of. They wondered whether any other places in the universe were like Earth. At first people used simple telescopes to study the solar system—the Sun and all the planets that circle around it. Later, more powerful telescopes and high-tech machines allowed people to investigate worlds outside the solar system. In this book, we'll explore seven wonders beyond the solar system. We'll look at giant clouds of gas and dust called nebulae. Some nebulae are places where stars are born. Other nebulae are all that remains of stars that have died. Other wonders beyond the solar system include pulsing stars, giant stars, and giant clusters of stars called galaxies. We'll visit them all. And we'll explore the age-old question: Does the universe have any other planets like Earth? We'll learn about scientists who hunt for Earthlike planets and the tools they use. Finally, we'll look at the big picture—the universe itself. This vast network of stars, planets, and other objects is the biggest wonder of them all.
