How Space Physics Really Works

Lessons from Well-Constructed Science Fiction

de Andrew May ...

Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
There is a huge gulf between the real physics of space travel and the way it is commonly portrayed in movies and TV shows. That’s not because space physics is difficult or obscure – most of the details were understood by the end of the 18th century – but because it can often be bafflingly counter-intuitive for a general audience. The purpose of this book isn’t to criticize or debunk popular sci-fi ... Leer más

The 13th/18th Royal Hussars through Dunkirk, D-Day and the Liberation of Europe

de Andrew May ...

When the amphibious Duplex Drive (DD) Sherman tanks of the 13th/18th Royal Hussars (QMO) touched down on the sand of Sword Beach as the vanguard of the D-Day invasion, ahead of the infantry and Commandos, it was the culmination of an evolution spanning several years. Switching roles from a mounted regiment in India, into a mechanized, armored cavalry regiment, they fought in France in 1940, then ... Leer más

Space Telescopes from Hubble to Webb

Over 50 years ago, astronomers launched the world's first orbiting telescope to gaze further into outer space to examine anything that appears in the sky above our heads, from comets and planets to galaxy clusters and stars. Since then, almost 100 space telescopes have been launched from Earth and are orbiting our planet, with 26 still active and relaying information back to us.As a result of ... Leer más

Is Buddhism Scientific?

de Andrew May ...

It sounds like an archetypal "question to which the answer is no". Buddhism is a spiritual tradition aimed at improving the human condition, while science seeks to analyse and explain the physical world. How can the two have anything in common? A number of claims have been made - that Buddhism anticipates quantum theory, for example - that just don't stand up to close scrutiny. Yet there are ... Leer más

The Science Behind Jules Verne's Moon Novels

de Andrew May ...

The idea of using a large gun to send humans into space is as impossible today as it was a century and a half ago, when Jules Verne wrote From the Earth to the Moon and Around the Moon. Yet he went to great lengths to persuade readers it wasn't impossible - not through arm-waving and made-up technobabble, but using real physics and astronomy. No one had done anything like that in fiction before - ... Leer más

Fake Physics: Spoofs, Hoaxes and Fictitious Science

de Andrew May ...

Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
People are used to seeing “fake physics” in science fiction – concepts like faster-than-light travel, antigravity and time travel to name a few. The fiction label ought to be a giveaway, but some SF writers – especially those with a background in professional science – are so adept at “technobabble” that it can be difficult to work out what is fake and what is real. To confuse matters further, ... Leer más
