DOWNLOAD EBOOKTwenty-four years have passed since Toller Maraquine led the population of Land to the sister planet of Overland. Somehow, those left behind have become immune to the deadly pterthacosis which caused the exodus, and their voracious ruler now lays claim to Overland. Grudgingly put in charge of his planet's defence, Toller designs a front-line force of spaceships and satellites made of wood, which will engage the enemy fleet in the cold vastness of space, before the invaders can set food upon Overland. As the war proceeds, a far more deadly, alien menace makes itself known, which will threaten the entire existence of Overland.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKScientists, especially those interested in natural sciences, have discovered many elements. Today's science and technology has also improved itself with the use of these elements. However, there are definitely very different elements on other planets, star systems and even universes. If these can be achieved, then we will encounter phenomena such as a living creature being able to walk to the moon. The atoms of the elements themselves are "smart" to some extent. If there was no such controllable structure, then science and technology would not be able to go beyond social sciences. However, as mentioned above, very different "smart elements" in very different environments will open the door to many different and currently unknown applications for creatures that can think intelligently. It is inevitable that it should be like this or that it should be like this. Just as nature and everything in nature is aging, the aging of science and technology means that it is moving forward. Science and technology can also control themselves. (This does not mean the task or job of a robot.) With time travel, science and technology will gain a different value and become the most superior living creature created by God. What will achieve this is the work to be done using intelligent and thinking creatures (human beings).

DOWNLOAD EBOOKSpaceplanes From Airport to Spaceport presents a coherent, lucid, and optimistic picture of the future of the near future. Space vehicles may soon take off from international airports and refuel in space. New technologies could allow flights to take off regularly between the Earth and the Moon. The technical details presented explain precisely how all this can be accomplished within the next few decades. This book also explains why the Space Tourist market could easily become the single most important factor in the mid-term future development of space transportation. In a few years it will be possible to board a spaceplane and fly into Earth orbit, and perhaps visit a space station. Later development could include refuelling in orbit to take a tour of cislunar space. The book's solid engineering foundation will be of interest to both space exploration enthusiasts and future space travelers.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe case of Eduard "Billy" Meier has gained worldwide attention for his claims of being in "on-going contact" with aliens from the star cluster known as the Pleiades. Purported to be the most documented UFO account of all time, Meier's files consist of 1,000 photographs and 12 motion picture films of the visiting spacecraft. Through thousands of pages of "contact notes," Meier claims to have "passed on" the wisdom and advanced technical knowledge from his conversations with these aliens, designed to help guide our evolution. In addition, he alleges that 40 independent eyewitnesses have also seen the alien ships and observed Meier's contacts with them. The aliens also "left" numerous "landing tracks" in the ground, and gave Meier various rock, metal, mineral, and crystal samples as "proof" of their visitations. Author Kal Korff conducted the most thorough examination ever into the case of Billy Meier and all its alleged evidence, and reveals here how a Swiss farmer hatched and continues to maintain the most elaborate UFO hoax in history.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book explains how the tax rules of the various countries in the world interact with one another to form an international tax regime: a set of principles embodied in both domestic legislation and treaties that significantly limits the ability of countries to choose any tax rules they please. The growth of this international tax regime is an important part of the phenomenon of globalization, and the book delves into how tax revenues are divided among different countries. It also explains how U.S. tax rules in particular apply to cross-border transactions and how they embody the norms of the international tax regime.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIf Gregg might have wondered about the fate of his soul after his death, he found out now. His soul pushed by mysterious forces took off into the galactic space. Changed into a cosmic bio-energy entity, he reached Soulsland, the planet for souls' cosmic recycling. There, as a high bio-energy soul, he was assigned to protect other souls in his sector against the unexpected invasion of critters of a predatory planet, PP5x, who armed with powerful robots and gamma rays missileships tried to abduct many souls. Gregg dramatically defeated them using a clever strategy. He became an instant hero. This lead to his cosmic odyssey full of suspenseful and frantic struggles for survival culminated by flying with his friend Mike a pricely spaceship. After daring exploits, pursued by PP5x, who he defeated, he landed on RX7, a planet inhabited by beings of a unique civilization. They reincarnated there. Here, Grego discovered a vast Machiavellian conspiracy masterminded by a powerful MC planet ready to take over RX7. This plot conceived and carried out in Earthian fashion led to a cloak-and dagger affair. While the daring aerial and ground confrontations continued, Miko piloting a spaceship got caught in cosmic storm and ended on a distant small planet inhabited by a kind of hominids. With the navigational system restored he flew back to tell his fascinating story. Then the day of Armageddon came when Grego and his space fleet defeated in spectacular battles the MC space fleet armed with anti-proton bombs. The galactic supremacy of MC ended and with it the Machiavellian spirit of reincarnated Earthian souls. During the unfolding of these suspenseful encounters and thrilling events, Grego's love life was conflicted by two beautiful females, one of them sent to kill him. Did he meet his cosmic destiny or something else would happen to him?
