Book Description: Prestel Publishing, Munich, London, New York, 2005. Softcover. Book Condition: New. 128 pages. Softcover. New book. ALIENS. Are we alone? The idea of life existing elsewhere in the Universe has been put forward by philosophers since the time of Ancient Egypt. Today, through science fiction literature, films and television we have all had close encounters with aliens. Now The Science of Aliens examines the possibilities of alien life in outer space as well as presenting a close-up look at 'aliens' on earth. Based on an international interactive exhibition. The Science of Aliens is a combination of imagination and ground-breaking science in the quest for extraterrestrial life. This stunning volume features specially commissioned cutting-edge digital imagery, which shows how twenty-first-century scientists are beginning to visualise the possibilities of alien life. Exploring scientific principles as well as science fiction, "Aliens: Are We Alone?" takes readers on a fascinating journey through time and space. Published to coincide with the Science Museum's blockbuster Autumn 2005 show, the book is fully illustrated with stunning images featured in the exhibition, along with additional illustrations and photographs. Jack Challoner examines alien stereotypes throughout history, exposing their historical and mythical precedents. He explains how scientists are exploring what alien life might be like by searching for clues in the extreme environments of our own planet, the moons and the planets of our solar system, and the newly discovered planets orbiting distant stars. Scientists have begun to understand how life might thrive in far-flung galaxies; in the atmospheres of gas giants; on moons very different from our own; as well as on planets similar to Earth.Drawing on sound scientific principles, the book reveals how far scientists have come in their knowledge about the possibilities for alien life. A mind-bending experience for readers of all ages, Aliens is a thrilling combination of imagination and groundbreaking science in the quest for extraterrestrial life.
