Worlds Without End: The Mission by Shaun Messick Pdf

Twenty-three years after the disappearance of the Mars I space shuttle, NASA receives a mysterious transmission from Adrian Palmer, the commander of the mission. Adrian's brother, Kevin, wastes no time funding the Mars II rescue mission commanded by Jake Palmer, Adrian's son. Jake and Dr. Steven "Skip" Hendricks, a NASA physicist, travel through a wormhole that Skip believes was the reason the Mars I crew disappeared. They eventually crash-land on the planet Terrest and are thrust into a war beyond their human limitations. The native Terrestrians are at war against a super-race of humans called the Gnols, led by Koroan Chast. However, the Terrestrian's struggle is futile because of the godlike abilities of the Gnols. Now, the only hope mankind has may rest on a 2000-year-old prophecy discovered in an ancient temple on Terrest. But before the prophecy can come to pass. Adrian and Jake must first stop the Gnols from attacking Earth and enslaving the human race.

The destinies of three worlds and the Chosen One rest upon three ancient gold tablets written in the pure language of God. Now, good and evil collide in an epic battle for control of the galaxy and the souls of mankind. The ageless war for the souls of mankind rages on in the third installment of the Worlds Without End series. After the presumed death of the Gnols' supreme leader - Koroan Chast, Dorange Gar seizes command over the other military overlords with the assistance of an ancient, supernatural being. Their goal is to find the golden tablet of Earth. This relic, combined with the relics of Terrest and Gnolom, will give untold power to whoever possesses them; enough power to dethrone even God, Himself. But before Dorange and his new ally can look for the ancient relic on Earth, they must first destroy the remaining human resistance on Terrest. Meanwhile, a child is born on Terrest to the transfigured parents of Jake Palmer and Celeste Chast. Is this child the chosen one?

But before he can escape, he and Kevin must face an old enemy, which could be futile. On Terrest, Jake and Scott are left to lead what's left of the Terrestrian military. Defeated and desperate, Jake and Celeste embark on an insurmountable journey to Gnolom to discover the true origins of Koroan Chast's power.

Worlds Without End by Chris Impey Pdf

The science of finding habitable planets beyond our solar system and the prospects for establishing human civilization away from our ever-less-habitable planetary home. Planet Earth, it turns out, may not be the best of all possible worlds—and lately humanity has been carelessly depleting resources, decimating species, and degrading everything needed for life. Meanwhile, human ingenuity has opened up a vista of habitable worlds well beyond our wildest dreams of outposts on Mars. Worlds without End is an expertly guided tour of this thrilling frontier in astronomy: the search for planets with the potential to host life. With the approachable style that has made him a leading interpreter of astronomy and space science, Chris Impey conducts readers across the vast, fast-developing field of astrobiology, surveying the dizzying advances carrying us ever closer to the discovery of life beyond Earth—and the prospect of humans living on another planet. Since the first exoplanet, or planet beyond our solar system, was discovered in 1995, over 4,000 more have been pinpointed, including hundreds of Earth-like planets, many of them habitable, detected by the Kepler satellite. With a view spanning astronomy, planetary science, geology, chemistry, and biology, Impey provides a state-of-the-art account of what’s behind this accelerating progress, what’s next, and what it might mean for humanity’s future. The existential threats that we face here on Earth lend urgency to this search, raising the question: Could space be our salvation? From the definition of habitability to the changing shape of space exploration—as it expands beyond the interests of government to the pursuits of private industry—Worlds without End shows us the science, on horizons near and far, that may hold the answers.

Meanwhile, a child is born on Terrest to the transfigured beings of Jake Palmer and Celeste Chast. This child, as the prophecy foretells, is the only one capable of deciphering the three golden plates. Consequently, the evil forces of the galaxy are searching for this child, hoping to use him for their own motives. Will Celeste and Jake be able to keep their son safe, or will he be used as an instrument for the purposes of the evil one? Unbeknownst to both sides, however, a new and more powerful evil is rising within Mount Resumpsi on the planet of Gnolom, with intentions to use its newfound power. You'll be taken on a wild ride as physical and spiritual forces, both good and evil, clash in a story that will take you to the far reaches of the Milky Way Galaxy, and through a saga that encompasses every aspect of human potential in the epic war for control of the souls of God's children and ultimate lordship over the galaxy.

Worlds Without End by Mary-Jane Rubenstein Pdf

“Multiverse” cosmologies imagine our universe as just one of a vast number of others. While this idea has captivated philosophy, religion, and literature for millennia, it is now being considered as a scientific hypothesis—with different models emerging from cosmology, quantum mechanics, and string theory. Beginning with ancient Atomist and Stoic philosophies, Mary-Jane Rubenstein links contemporary models of the multiverse to their forerunners and explores their current emergence. One reason is the so-called fine-tuning of the universe: nature’s constants are so delicately calibrated, it seems they have been set just right to allow life to emerge. For some theologians, these “fine-tunings” are proof of God; for others, “God” is an insufficient explanation. One compelling solution: if all possible worlds exist somewhere, then it is no surprise one of them happens to be suitable for life. Yet this hypothesis replaces God with an equally baffling article of faith: the existence of universes beyond, before, or after our own, eternally generated yet forever inaccessible. In sidestepping metaphysics, multiverse scenarios collide with it, producing their own counter-theological narratives. Rubenstein argues, however, that this interdisciplinary collision provides the condition of its scientific viability, reconfiguring the boundaries among physics, philosophy, and religion.

Evolutionary Worlds Without End by Henry C. Plotkin Pdf

In Evolutionary Worlds without end, Henry Plotkin considers whether there is any general theory in biology, including the social sciences, that is in any way equivalent to the general theories of physics. He starts by examining Ernest Rutherford's dictum as to what science is. In the later chapters he considers the possibility, within an historical framework, of a general theory being based upon selection processes. --

Worlds by Alec Gillis Pdf

Worlds is more than just an absorbing and, ultimately,heart-wrenching work of fiction, it is a visual masterpiece. Not since WayneBarlowe's Expedition has an artist conceived an alien biosphere in suchbaroque detail, while remaining true to nature's fundamental principles ofadaptation, selection, and ecological interdependence. These worlds areintricately conceived, their biomes scientifically plausible, while possessing asufficient sense of the quirky and outrageous to mirror nature's own outlandishinventiveness. Worlds is a visual depiction of humankind's first exploration oflife-supporting planets, shown in a dynamic v�rit� photographicstyle and told in a firstperson narrative. Created by Academy Award-nominatedvisual effects artist Alec Gillis, Worlds leads the reader on a journeyto undiscovered landscapes, populated by unknown life forms.
