Oggi tutti sembrano interessarsi a Marte. La NASA progetta l’invio di esseri umani su Marte per il 2030, mentre la SpaceX vuole farlo prima, nel 2024. Marte è un argomento ricorrente a Hollywood. Ci sono film, come The Martian e Life, che ipotizzano su come potrebbe essere la vita sul pianeta rosso. Tuttavia, nessuno di questi film sembra affrontare il problema fondamentale: come faranno gli esseri umani a vivere su Marte nel lungo periodo? L’atmosfera di Marte è composta, principalmente, di monossido di carbonio e la sua superficie è troppo fredda per la vita umana. La gravità è pari al 38% di quella terrestre. Di conseguenza, resta la questione di come un essere umano possa sopravvivere in un ambiente simile. Andare su Marte è facile, poiché il viaggio richiede soltanto 260 giorni quando i due pianeti sono più vicini l’uno all’altro. Dopo essere arrivati, la difficoltà è atterrare sulla superficie. Quale sistema di atterraggio è più sicuro per astronauti e coloni? Nel 2007, gli scienziati hanno proposto quattro sistemi di atterraggio: il Legged Standing System, lo Sky-Crane Landing System, l’Airbag Landing System e infine il Touchdown Sensing. Al 2017, gli scienziati hanno trovato altri metodi di atterraggio, tra cui tuffarsi nell’atmosfera marziana e costeggiare più da vicino la superficie. La NASA sta già pensando al tipo di abitazioni che aiuteranno i coloni a sopravvivere su Marte. Nel 2016, sei aziende hanno iniziato a progettare prototipi di possibili habitat. Tutti questi prototipi sono probabilmente simili sotto molti aspetti – dovrebbero essere autosufficienti, in grado di sostenere la vita per lunghi periodi senza aiuto dalla Terra ed essere a tenuta stagna per protezione dalla sottile atmosfera di Marte.

There is a general consensus that for the next few decades at least, the Earth will continue its warming. This will inevitably bring about serious environmental problems. For human society, the most severe will be those related to alterations of the hydrological cycle, which is already heavily influenced by human activities. Climate change will directly affect groundwater recharge, groundwater quality and the freshwater-seawater interface. The variations of groundwater storage inevitably entail a variety of geomorphological and engineering effects. In the areas where water resources are likely to diminish, groundwater will be one of the main solutions to prevent drought. In spite of its paramount importance, the issue of 'Climate Change and Groundwater' has been neglected. This volume presents some of the current understanding of the topic.

A term with myriad associations, revolution is commonly understood in its intellectual, historical, and sociopolitical contexts. Until now, almost no attention has been paid to revolution and questions of geography. Geography and Revolution examines the ways that place and space matter in a variety of revolutionary situations. David N. Livingstone and Charles W. J. Withers assemble a set of essays that are themselves revolutionary in uncovering not only the geography of revolutions but the role of geography in revolutions. Here, scientific revolutions—Copernican, Newtonian, and Darwinian—ordinarily thought of as placeless, are revealed to be rooted in specific sites and spaces. Technical revolutions—the advent of print, time-keeping, and photography—emerge as inventions that transformed the world's order without homogenizing it. Political revolutions—in France, England, Germany, and the United States—are notable for their debates on the nature of political institutions and national identity. Gathering insight from geographers, historians, and historians of science, Geography and Revolution is an invitation to take the where as seriously as the who and the when in examining the nature, shape, and location of revolutions.

The regal courts of the English Stuart Kings, from James I (1603-1625) to the ill-fated James II (1685-1689), were magnificent affairs. In a country otherwise given to increasingly austere Puritan ways of living, the royal court shone with a brilliance usually associated with the courts of the Catholic kings of mainland Europe. They were centres of great culture, patronage, ceremony and politics. The real importance of the courts, though down-played for many years, is now beginning to be fully recognised and this first major study of the Stuart courts in England, Scotland and Ireland examines them in their full cultural and historical context. Scholars of international reputation and up and coming, younger scholars have been brought together to give us an insight into many aspects of the Stuart courts. This book includes essays on culture and patronage of the arts and social history. What was it really like at the court? What rules applied? How did the courtiers behave? Finally, the crucial interplay between court life and political life, and politics, is examined in detail. This book is a major contribution to a flourishing area of scholarship and will be required reading for anyone interested in seventeenth-century history, court studies or the arts in the early modern period.

“In Mr. Wilson ants have found not only their Darwin but also their Homer.” —Economist In Tales from the Ant World, two-time Pulitzer Prize winner Edward O. Wilson takes us on a thrilling myrmecological tour across continents and through time, inviting us into his decades-long scientific obsession with ants. Animating his observations with personal stories, Wilson hones in on twenty-five ant species to explain how these creatures talk, smell, taste, and crucially, how they fight to determine dominance. Richly illustrated throughout with depictions of ant species and photos from Wilson’s own expeditions, Tales from the Ant World is a fascinating personal account from one of our greatest scientists—and a necessary volume for any lover of the natural world.

Jerry Brotton is the presenter of the acclaimed BBC4 series 'Maps: Power, Plunder and Possession'. Here he tells the story of our world through maps. Throughout history, maps have been fundamental in shaping our view of the world, and our place in it. But far from being purely scientific objects, world maps are unavoidably ideological and subjective, intimately bound up with the systems of power and authority of particular times and places. Mapmakers do not simply represent the world, they construct it out of the ideas of their age. In this scintillating book, Jerry Brotton examines the significance of 12 maps - from the mystical representations of ancient history to the satellite-derived imagery of today. He vividly recreates the environments and circumstances in which each of the maps was made, showing how each conveys a highly individual view of the world - whether the Jerusalem-centred Christian perspective of the 14th century Hereford Mappa Mundi or the Peters projection of the 1970s which aimed to give due weight to 'the third world'. Although the way we map our surroundings is once more changing dramatically, Brotton argues that maps today are no more definitive or objective than they have ever been - but that they continue to make arguments and propositions about the world, and to recreate, shape and mediate our view of it. Readers of this book will never look at a map in quite the same way again.
