Unity and prosperity prevailed on Elockia for over a thousand cycles under the unifying teachings of The Word. As leader of the Church of Elock, Vicar Elop Sar held the ultimate responsibility for carrying these teachings to all the tribes of the city-states. As all things come with controversy, her conflicts with the Council of the Enlightened and its sacerdotal leader were just part of her daily routine. However, it would be her dealings with Commissioner Marvis Delp and his staff at the Academy of Interplanetary Sciences that would challenge her very authority as teacher of the Word of Elock. It was a young Lieutenant Gillfrec and her technician Thylan Kiffgex that set in motion a conflict that would threaten the long-tested but fragile relationships between the Academy and the church. Were these transmissions from a pair of interplanetary probes a ploy and hoax by the Academy to garner support for its programs? Or were they, as Lieutenant Gillfrec claimed, a revelation and challenge to seek the truth of their place in the cosmos? Finding the truth would come with a price as science fact collided with the teachings of the church and embolden some to instigate unspeakable acts of deception, sabotage, and intimidation. Could Vicar Sar and Commissioner Delp heal the wounds and reach out together to seek Elock's truth on a bold voyage to the stars?

Chandrasekhar is a distinguished astrophysicist and every one of the lectures bears the hallmark of all his work: precision, thoroughness, lucidity."—Sir Hermann Bondi, Nature The late S. Chandrasekhar was best known for his discovery of the upper limit to the mass of a white dwarf star, for which he received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1983. He was the author of many books, including The Mathematical Theory of Black Holes and, most recently, Newton's Principia for the Common Reader.

Does moss only grow on the north side of a tree? Is the North Star really the brightest star? Will a mother bird abandon its baby if you put it back in its nest? Will toads really give you warts? The Truth About Nature answers all of these questions and more. This useful compendium for parents and children to read together sets the record straight on nature myths once and for all. It breaks down 144 everyday nature myths, identifying how true the myth really is, with the book’s unique “myth scale” (level 1 being somewhat true to level 3 being a complete myth). Organized by season and covering facts that are so strange they must simply be false (but they’re true!), this interactive guidebook also offers readers the chance to do their own science experiments to bust a few myths on their own.

Creation – Big Bang – Science Fiction or Science Madness The debate between creationism and scientific theories of the origin of the universe has been an ongoing and contentious one. On one side, we have the belief in a divine Creator who is responsible for the creation of the world in six days, as described in the Bible. On the other side, we have scientific theories such as the Big Bang, which posits that the universe began with a massive explosion around 13.8 billion years ago. For those who adhere to the belief in a Creator, the concept of a six-day creation holds immense significance. This belief is rooted in faith and is a fundamental tenet of many religious traditions. The idea that a higher power carefully constructed the universe, day by day, is a source of comfort and meaning for many people. Some may argue that the Big Bang theory is nothing more than science fiction or science madness, dismissing it as a fanciful and unsubstantiated idea.
