Una Luna, Una Civilizacion. Por Que La Luna Nos Dice Que Estamos Solos En El Universo de Jorge Laborda

Una Luna, Una Civilizacion. Por Que La Luna Nos Dice Que Estamos Solos En El Universo

Autor Jorge Laborda
es Limba Spaniolă Paperback – 28 feb 2011
La cuestion de si nos encontramos o no solos en el universo sigue siendo uno de los enigmas mas fascinantes de la ciencia. Los conocimientos cientificos acumulados, a pesar de revelarnos que existen miles de millones de galaxias y, probablemente, billones de billones de planetas, sugieren que, a efectos practicos, es probable que estemos solos en el universo. De esto habla este libro. En particular, explicaremos por que no es probable que en el universo conocido pueda existir vida basada en una quimica diferente a la nuestra. Visitaremos tambien el extraordinario origen de la Luna, que convierte en muy improbable que otros planetas posean lunas similares a la nuestra, y analizaremos por que su presencia a nuestro lado ha podido ser determinante para que surjan y evolucionen seres vivos inteligentes, que ahora estan aqui, leyendo estas lineas.
