Description
In the book "Dark Matter and the Extinction of Dinosaurs", Lisa Randall (Harvard University) one of the world's top theoretical physicists, invites readers on a intellectual adventure in the evolution of our Universe from the first seconds after the Big Bang to the creation of Earth and the emergence of life on our planet. In this journey, she will talk to us about how events that happened billions of years ago at the edges of the Universe created the conditions for life - but also extinction - on our planet.
Approximately 66 million years ago, an object the size of a city crashed into Earth, killing the dinosaurs, along with three-quarters of the planet's species. Challenging the theories to date about the role and composition of dark matter, which makes up 25% of the matter in the Universe, Randall argues that the existence of a disk of dark matter at the level of our Galaxy could be responsible for this catastrophic event.
Randall's book not only proposes a radical idea about one of the most significant events that marked our planet and the evolution of life on it, but also explains clearly the creation of the Universe, dark matter, galaxies, and comets, as well as the role of asteroids. Randall's captivating narrative combines references to pop culture, socio-political conditions, and the deeper relationships between what we observe and what we have not yet been able to observe, as well as the stunning beauty of our surroundings. After reading this book, it will be impossible for you to look at the sky or observe the Earth in the same way.
