On December 26, 2015, the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) detected gravitational waves generated from merging black holes for the first time in human history. Through an engaging, easily accessible approach, the origins, dynamics, and ultimate fate of black holes are thoroughly unraveled so that students without a scientific background can grasp complex physics theories. This book supports the Next Generation Science Standards' emphasis on scientific collection and analysis of data and evidence-based theories by discussing the methods research universities and space agencies use to explore black holes.

The key proposal within the discussed GLEW theory is that the quantum particles of gravity (gravitons) move faster than the accepted speed of light photons. Gravity is asserted as the smallest of all particles (known, undiscovered and never to be discovered) within all quantum and cosmological theory. Gravity particles are constantly interacting with other fundamental particles in order to maintain balance and order within the Multiverse. When gravity travels at the speed of light, it is both carrying photons and taking them to a speed where they are neither visible nor detectable: gravitons and photons travel together as Gravity-Light Energized Waves (abbreviated to GLEW, pronounced glue). That is, non-detectable photons travel faster than the asserted mathematical speed of light, expressed as c. When GLEW streams decelerate to the point where photons are travelling at a velocity that light becomes detectable, this is the point at which the Gravity-Light Acceleration-Related Energy (GLARE) threshold velocity is achieved.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 If you want to be awed by the night sky, stand outside with your eyes closed and see how your night vision develops. You’ll be surprised at how much you can see. #2 The Sun is at the centre of our Solar System, and all other objects orbit it. This was proven by the efforts of Tycho Brahe, Johannes Kepler and Isaac Newton over the next century or so. #3 In the late 1600s, Isaac Newton demonstrated that white light was made up of all the colours of the rainbow, and that refraction occurred through a prism, changing the direction of red light less, and changing the direction of blue light more, to reveal the rainbow. #4 The Sun is at the centre of our Solar System, and all other objects orbit it.

This eBook explores current (and past) theories pertaining to the existence of black holes in our universe. It aims to provide its readers with a fundamental understanding of what black holes are, what they are composed of, and where they developed.

This book is based upon lectures presented in the summer of 2009 at the INFN-Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati School on Attractor Mechanism, directed by Stefano Bellucci. The symposium included such prestigious lecturers as S. Ferrara, G. Dall'Agata, J.F. Morales, J. Simón and M. Trigiante. All lectures were given at a pedagogical, introductory level, which is reflected in the specific "flavor" of this volume. The book also benefits from extensive discussions about, and the related reworking of, the various contributions. It is the fifth volume in a series of books on the general topics of supersymmetry, supergravity, black holes and the attractor mechanism.

This book consists of about 20 lectures on theoretical and observational aspects of astrophysical black holes, by experts in the field. The basic principles and astrophysical applications of the black hole magnetosphere and the BlandfordOCoZnajek process are reviewed in detail, as well as accretion by black holes, black hole X-Ray binaries, black holes with cosmic strings, and so on. Recent advances in X-Ray observations of galactic black holes and new understanding of supermassive black holes in AGNs and normal galaxies are also discussed."

A "Fictitious Textbook" in the form of an "Interview with an AI", "Beyond the Limits of Time™: Advanced Techniques & Applications" continues the journey readers started with "Beyond the Limits of Time™: A Practical Guide to Creating & Using a Time Machine". In this book readers will discover & learn about some advanced uses of the technologies related to Time Travel, extending & building upon the knowledge gained in the first book! This book additionally covers some of the possible uses for & implications of Time Travel, as well as providing more Code Samples & Formulas!

Many centuries ago, an alien race known as the Nar were able to recreate human beings from genetic code, broadcast from Earth into outer space by a beleaguered humanity. Although the Nar are kind and benevolent masters to the humans, discontent leads the humans to revolt, and the Nar realize that they do not yet fully understand their rebellious creations. They allow a group of humans to travel millions of light years through the galaxy, in order to discover what has happened to the original occupants of planet Earth. However, none of the human participants of the expedition are prepared for what awaits them at the completion of their journey...
