The 4% Universe: Dark Matter, Dark Energy, and the Race to Discover the Rest of Reality


Richard Panek - 2010
      In the past few years, a handful of scientists have been in a race to explain a disturbing aspect of our universe: only 4 percent of it consists of the matter that makes up you, me, our books, and every planet, star, and galaxy. The rest—96 percent of the universe—is completely unknown.   Richard Panek tells the dramatic story of how scientists reached this conclusion, and what they’re doing to find this "dark" matter and an even more bizarre substance called dark energy. Based on in-depth, on-site reporting and hundreds of interviews—with everyone from Berkeley’s feisty Saul Perlmutter and Johns Hopkins’s meticulous Adam Riess to the quietly revolutionary Vera Rubin—the book offers an intimate portrait of the bitter rivalries and fruitful collaborations, the eureka moments and blind alleys, that have fueled their search, redefined science, and reinvented the universe.

Taptpadi


V.P. Kale - 1991
    These seven steps are indicative of the life that a husband and wife are going to lead together in each other's company, holding hands on the way, completing the journey of life with a firm belief in each other, supporting each other, sometimes following, sometimes leading. In Sanskrit it is said that, "Sakha Saptapadi Bhav'; it indicates that the seven steps that we walk together during the "saptapadi' should always be our friends, should bring our minds close to each other, should make us comfortable towards each other, should help us to understand each other properly as a friend would. Those men who understand the meaning of "Sakha' will lead such a life; for them life will be no less than heaven itself, but those who do not understand the real meaning of the word "Sakha' will suffer.
