Британский журналист и писатель Оливер Мортон освещает в своих работах влияние научно-технического прогресса на нашу жизнь. Луна испокон веков занимала второстепенное место в мифологическом сознании, в культурном контексте, а потом и в астрономических исследованиях. Краткий апогей ее славы, когда по лунной поверхности прошлись люди, окончился более полувека назад. И тем не менее Луна всегда рядом, скромная, но незаменимая, неразрывно связанная с прошлым, настоящим и будущим человечества. Мортон...
Книга представляет собой популярный рассказ о научных открытиях, сделанных людьми, которые не были профессиональными астрономами. Астрономия – одна из самых увлекательных наук, и одновременно одна из немногих современных областей знания, в которой ощутимую научную ценность могут принести исследования непрофессионалов. Кроме того, любительская астрономия – очень зрелищное и захватывающее хобби. Чем притягательны для нас просторы Вселенной, как люди открывали для себя ее тайны, какие виды...

A multidisciplinary perspective on the dynamic processes occurring in Earth's mantle The convective motion of material in Earth's mantle, powered by heat from the deep interior of our planet, drives plate tectonics at the surface, generating earthquakes and volcanic activity. It shapes our familiar surface landscapes, and also stabilizes the oceans and atmosphere on geologic timescales. Mantle Convection and Surface Expressions brings together perspectives from observational...
