At the edge of known space the most famous adventurers converge on a strange little planet that is uniquely capable of attracting precious stardust with its befuddling gravity These adventurers are there to collect as much of this rare resource as they can while their rivals constantly try to steal it You are one of these superstars on a quest for wealth & you must overcome the gravitational challenges set before you! What is really original about Gravity Superstar is the manner in which the players& pawns move Each turn they move one or two spaces then they are affected by gravity which makes them fall until they are stopped by a platform This effect is made possible by the fact that the pawns are used lying down on the board Thus they move up (above their head) down (below their feet) left or right During its movement a pawn can collect stars (to score points at the end of the game) or replay tokens (to take a second consecutive turn) & eject opponents& pawns from the board ...

A fascinating account written in real time of the unfolding of a scientific discovery the first detection of gravitational waves Scientists have been trying to confirm the existence of gravitational waves for fifty years Then in September 2015 came a very interesting event (as the cautious subject line in a physicist's email read) that proved to be the first detection of gravitational waves In Gravity's Kiss Harry Collins -- who has been watching the science of gravitational wave detection for forty-three of those fifty years & has written three previous books about it -- offers a final fascinating account written in real time of the unfolding of one of the most remarkable scientific discoveries ever made Predicted by Einstein in his theory of general relativity gravitational waves carry energy from the collision or explosion of stars Dying binary stars for example rotate faster & faster around each other until they merge emitting a burst of gravitational waves It is only with the development of extraordinarily sensitive highly sophisticated detectors that physicists can now confirm Einstein's prediction This is the story that Collins tells Collins a sociologist of science who has been embedded in the gravitational wave community since 1972 traces the detection the analysis the confirmation & the public presentation & the reception of the discovery -- from the first email to the final published paper & the response of professionals & the public Collins shows that science today is collaborative far-flung (with the physical location of the participants hardly mattering) & sometimes secretive but still one of the few institutions that has integrity built into it ...

Gravity is one of the four fundamental interactions that exist in nature It also has the distinction of being the oldest weakest & most difficult force to quantize Understanding gravity is not only essential for understanding the motion of objects on Earth but also the motion of all celestial objects & even the expansion of the Universe itself It was the study of gravity that led Einstein to his profound realisations about the nature of space & time Gravity is not only universal it is also essential for understanding the behaviour of the Universe & all astrophysical bodies within it In this Very Short Introduction Timothy Clifton looks at the development of our understanding of gravity since the early observations of Kepler & Newtonian theory He discusses Einstein's theory of gravity which now supplants Newton's showing how it allows us to understand why the frequency of light changes as it passes through a gravitational field why GPS satellites need their clocks corrected as they orbit the Earth & why the orbits of distant neutron stars speed up Today almost 100 years after Einstein published his theory of gravity we have even detected the waves of gravitational radiation that he predicted Clifton concludes by considering the testing & application of general relativity in astrophysics & cosmology & looks at dark energy & efforts such as string theory to combine gravity with quantum mechanics ABOUT THE SERIES The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly Our expert authors combine facts analysis perspective new ideas & enthusiasm to make interesting & challenging topics highly readable ...

In Gravwell Escape from the 9th Dimension players command spaceships that have been pulled through a black hole transporting them into a different dimension With each ship lacking fuel to get home each player must collect basic elements from surrounding asteroids using the gravity of the dimension & what little resources they have in order to reach the warp gate that will take them home But in this dimension moving ships will travel towards the nearest object which is usually another ship & when those objects are moving either forward or backward reaching the warp gate isn&t always easy Time is running out to save your crew & your ship! As a grim reminder of the cost of failing to escape the frozen hulks of dead spacecraft litter the escape route – but with careful cardplay you can slingshot past these derelict craft & be the first to escape from the Gravwell! This easy-to-learn game uses 26 alphabetized cards to determine movement order & thrust; most cards move your ship towards the nearest object but a few move you away from it Players will draft fuel cards in each round – picking up three pairs of two cards with only the top card of each pile being visible – giving you some information as to which moves you can expect from the other spaceships During a round each player will play all of his fuel cards in the order of his choosing During each phase of a round each player will choose one card then all cards are revealed & resolved in alphabetical order When your opponents move in ways you didn&t expect you won&t always be heading in the direction you thought you would! Each player holds an " Emergency Stop" card that he may tactically play only once per round to avoid such a situation Whoever first reaches the warp gate wins but if no one has escaped after six rounds then the player who is closest to the gate wins ...
