Out Of This World And Into The Next

A Physicist's Guide To Space Exploration

Adriana Marais 2025 Bvtn Lib 523.1 MAR

  • An OK book for innumerate mathophobes who want to know somewhat more. It isn't about space exploration technology, orbits, launch systems, energies, or the tools and systems that terrestrial observers use. No traceable citations. I stopped reading and taking notes around page 50 out of 339.

  • p21 Sumerian mythology planet Niburu

  • p22 Farfarout dwarf planet in Kuiper Belt 2E10 km from sun

  • p23 right angled tilt of Uranus

  • p25 Dragonfly mission to Titan "later this decade", seven year transit time

  • p30 1985 two instrumented balloons at 50 km altitude Venus

  • p31 Venus upper atmosphere phosphine announced 2020

  • p34 Mars less extreme than Luna, temperatures (of what? range from -150 to 20℃, less radiation but more than Earth

  • p38 lunar "surface radiation more than 100 times that of Earth" presumably radiation = ionizing radiation

  • p41 "deuterium reveals our water has been exposed to more light than the Sun has yet produced in it's entire lifetime" WTF?

  • p412 methane and phosphine in Mars no and Venus Venus atmospheres

  • p47 Stromatolites interlayered microbes and sediments

  • p50 Great Oxidation Event
