Dark matter. These strange and invisible substances don't just sound mysterious: their unexpected appearance in the cosmic census is upending long-held notions about the nature of the Universe. Astronomers have long known that the Universe is expanding, but everything they could see indicated that gravity should be slowing this spread. Instead, it appears that the Universe is accelerating its expansion and that something stronger than gravity--dark energy--is at work. In <em>Einstein's Telescope</em> Evalyn Gates, a University of Chicago astrophysicist, transports us to the edge of contemporary science to explore the revolutionary tool that unlocks the secrets of these little-understood cosmic constituents. Based on Einstein's theory of general relativity, gravitational lensing, or "Einstein's Telescope," is enabling new discoveries that are taking us toward the next revolution in scientific thinking--one that may change forever our notions of where the Universe came from and where it is going.</p> 6329884 23 2 2009 Einstein's Telescope: The Hunt for Dark Matter and Dark Energy in the Universe total:17|5:7|4:5|3:5|2:0|1:0| 17 70 56 6 5 0 false false Sat Oct 24 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Oct 14 17:57:45 -0700 2009 Sat Oct 24 16:35:34 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Fri Jul 24 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Fri Jul 24 12:45:45 -0700 2009 Fri Jul 24 12:53:09 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Sun Mar 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Sat Mar 28 04:38:38 -0700 2009 Sat Mar 28 04:44:34 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Mon Jun 08 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue May 19 09:57:31 -0700 2009 Tue Jun 09 05:45:46 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Fri Jun 19 14:43:23 -0700 2009 Fri Jun 19 14:44:35 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Fri May 29 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Apr 14 07:24:07 -0700 2009 Fri May 29 08:20:36 -0700 2009 more...]]> 0 0 false false Tue Nov 24 08:55:42 -0800 2009 Tue Nov 24 08:55:42 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Sun Nov 15 15:00:33 -0800 2009 Sun Nov 15 15:00:41 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Fri Nov 13 19:49:34 -0800 2009 Fri Nov 13 19:49:34 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Wed Nov 11 20:29:04 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 11 20:29:07 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Thu Nov 05 18:14:10 -0800 2009 Thu Nov 05 18:14:12 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Mon Oct 26 07:33:12 -0700 2009 Mon Oct 26 07:33:12 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Sep 27 15:26:01 -0700 2009 Sun Sep 27 15:26:01 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Sep 26 00:34:20 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 26 00:34:20 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Sep 23 07:48:40 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 23 07:48:40 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Sep 20 17:47:55 -0700 2009 Sun Sep 20 17:47:55 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Mon Sep 28 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 12 20:28:28 -0700 2009 Thu Nov 26 21:04:29 -0800 2009 1 0 0 false false Sat Sep 12 16:42:27 -0700 2009 Wed Oct 28 14:05:29 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Mon Sep 07 14:13:09 -0700 2009 Mon Sep 07 14:13:09 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Fri Aug 21 20:21:52 -0700 2009 Fri Aug 21 20:22:02 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=6150726
