The hardest part is sticking the landing. Hoping to cool the atmosphere by opening everyone's freezer door at the same time? Maybe it's time for a brief introduction to thermodynamics. Want to know what would happen if you rode a helicopter blade, built a billion-story building, made a lava lamp out of lava, or jumped on a geyser as it erupted? Okay, if you insist.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBefore you go on a cosmic road trip, feed the residents of New York City to a T. rex, or fill every church with bananas, be sure to consult this practical guide for impractical ideas. Unfazed by absurdity, Munroe consults the latest research on everything from swing-set physics to airliner catapult-design to answer his readers' questions, clearly and concisely, with illuminating and occasionally terrifying illustrations. As he consistently demonstrates, you can learn a lot from examining how the world might work in very specific extreme circumstances.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePRODUCT DETAILS : \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003eISBN : 9780593542903\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003eBY (AUTHOR) Munroe, Randall\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePUBLISHER : Penguin Putnam Inc\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePUBLICATION DATE : September 13, 2022\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCOUNTRY OF PUBLICATION : United States\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIMPRINT : Riverhead Books,U.S.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLANGUAGE : English\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAGE : General\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003ePRODUCT FORM : Paperback \/ softback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\nDIMENSION : 228 mm x 178 mm \u003cbr\u003eWEIGHT : 675 g \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePRODUCT CATEGORY :\u003cbr\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/bookazine-hong-kong.myshopify.com\/collections\/Lifestyle-Hobbies-Leisure\"\u003eLifestyle, Hobbies \u0026amp; Leisure\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/bookazine-hong-kong.myshopify.com\/collections\/Mathematics-Science\"\u003eMathematics \u0026amp; Science\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Munroe, Randall","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40053631189078,"sku":"9780593542903","price":180.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0272\/7087\/3174\/products\/What_If_2_Additional_Serious_Scientific_Answers_to_Absurd_Hypothetical_Questions_9780593542903.jpg?v=1662982637"},{"product_id":"starry-messenger","title":"Starry Messenger","description":"\u003cp\u003eDESCRIPTION :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBringing his cosmic perspective to civilization on Earth, Neil deGrasse Tyson, bestselling author of Astrophysics for People in a Hurry, shines new light on the crucial fault lines of our time-war, politics, religion, truth, beauty, gender, race, and tribalism-in a way that stimulates a deeper sense of unity for us all.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIn a time when our political and cultural perspectives feel more divisive than ever, Tyson provides a much-needed antidote to so much of what divides us, while making a passionate case for the twin engines of enlightenment-a cosmic perspective and the rationality of science.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAfter thinking deeply about how a scientist views the world and about what Earth looks like from space, Tyson has found that terrestrial thoughts change as our brain resets and recalibrates life's priorities, along with the actions we might take in response.
