  • The Twin Sister Planets Venus and Earth

    Why are they so different?

    de Robert J. Malcuit ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book explains how it came to be that Venus and Earth, while very similar in chemical composition, zonation, size and heliocentric distance from the Sun, are very different in surface environmental conditions. It is argued here that these differences can be accounted for by planetoid capture processes and the subsequent evolution of the planet-satellite system. Venus captured a one-half moon ... Leer más

  • The Life of Super-Earths

    How the Hunt for Alien Worlds and Artificial Cells Will Revolutionize Life on Our Planet

    de Dimitar Sasselov ...
    In 1543, Nicolaus Copernicus fomented a revolution when he debunked the geocentric view of the universe, proving instead that our planet wasn't central to the universe. Almost five hundred years later, the revolution he set in motion is nearly complete. Just as earth is not the center of things, the life on it, it appears, is not unique to the planet. Or is it?The Life of Super-Earths is a ... Leer más
