Dark matter and the dinosaurs : the astounding interconnectedness of the universe / Lisa Randall. by Randall, Lisa, author. New York, NY : Ecco, an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers, c2015. Subjects Dark matter (Astronomy)   Cosmology. ISBN:  9780062328472 (hbk.) : 0062328476 (hbk.) Description:  xv, 412 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm Edition:  First edition. Requests:  0 Summary:  "Sixty-six million years ago, an object the size of a city descended from space to crash into Earth, creating a devastating cataclysm that killed off the dinosaurs, along with three-quarters of the other species on the planet. What was its origin? In Dark Matter and the Dinosaurs, Lisa Randall proposes it was a comet that was dislodged from its orbit as the Solar System passed through a disk of dark matter embedded in the Milky Way. In a sense, it might have been dark matter that killed the dinosaurs. Working through the background and consequences of this proposal, Randall shares with us the latest findings--established and speculative--regarding the nature and role of dark matter and the origin of the Universe, our galaxy, our Solar System, and life, along with the process by which scientists explore new concepts. In Dark Matter and the Dinosaurs, Randall tells a breathtaking story that weaves together the cosmos' history and our own, illuminating the deep relationships that are critical to our world and the astonishing beauty inherent in the most familiar things"--Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Aina Haina Public Library Adult Nonfiction 523.1126 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hana P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 523.1126 Randall Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Nonfiction 523.1126 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 523.1126 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 523.1126 Randall Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 523.1126 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 523.1126 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 523.1126 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pahoa P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 523.1126 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList
