"We chose the place for its neutrality. The Brits opted for its inaccessibility and the Israelis agreed because of its impregnability," Agent Joseph Falk's voice crackled in the earphones of fellow Agent Susan Koski as she swept her binoculars across the vastness of the dark green sea below to focus on the jagged black rock that comprised the home of Flangenan Lighthouse. A lighthouse clinging tenaciously to the rocky outcroppings three miles west of Tiree Island for over one hundred years, once crisp and white, its conical structure embedded into the northernmost tip of land, was now weather-worn to a splotchy grey. Then she spied a concrete bunker recently added to the west curve of the lighthouse, then yet another built into the east face of the rock cliff... In their sixth adventure, Koski and Falk face what may be one of their most deadly assignments yet: Operation Solar Triangle.

A real-world guide for adapting to the new energy era The Energy Disruption Triangle is a treatise on the energy revolution's real-world impacts, and a handbook for anyone looking to weather the storm. Three major technologies are already changing the energy paradigm: solar energy, electric vehicles, and energy storage. As technology continues to evolve and become more accessible to the masses, the nation's energy habits will experience a dramatic upheaval; this book provides actionable guidance to help you adapt. We are already in the beginning stages of this black swan event, and most people don't know what's coming—but it will come much sooner and much faster than anyone thinks. This book reveals the revolution happening right before our eyes, and shows you how to thrive in this new era. Learn how our energy supplies—and usage—are changing Understand why energy storage matters, and how the technology is evolving Explore the history and future of groundbreaking energy technologies Delve into the disruption of the U.S. energy supply, and the possibility of energy independence Rapidly advancing battery technology is boosting energy storage for homeowners, utilities, and electric vehicle manufacturers, stranding fossil fuels in the ground due to the high price of extraction relative to cost-effective sources such as solar and wind. Traditional energy sources are being phased out, and our nation has come to a fork in the road: uphold the status quo and allow our energy supply to be disrupted, or adapt and advance to a state of total energy independence. The Energy Disruption Triangle explores the state of U.S. energy from source to consumer, and provides insight into the three sectors that are changing the world.

Mike Bara, author of Ancient Aliens on the Moon, takes a hard look at the Bermuda Triangle. For decades, no single place has intrigued the world more than the baffling mystery of the Bermuda Triangle. Hundreds of ships, planes and yachts have disappeared in the dark, mysterious waters between Bermuda and Florida, far more than in any other part of the world. Ships have vanished without a trace only to magically reappear years later in good order but minus their crews, almost as if the intervening years had not even passed–for them. Yachts and ocean liners have gone missing in good weather with no explanation. Pilots have reported bizarre problems with their instruments as compasses and guidance systems have spun inexplicably out of control over the shadowy waters of the Triangle. Entire squadrons of military aircraft have disappeared off of radarscopes in clear weather and with no forewarning. Others have experienced strange magnetic anomalies and otherworldly encounters with mysterious craft and unrecognizable energetic fields. Explanations range from alien encounters to rogue waves to twisting unnatural funnel spouts caused by submerged civilizations left over from the days of Atlantis. New York Times bestselling author Mike Bara investigates these and other mysteries of the Bermuda Triangle in his new book The Triangle. Find out what really happened to Flight 19, the Navy training flight that last reported “they look like they’re from outer space” over the Triangle. Examine the undersea ruins of a lost civilization just off the island of Bimini and the strange stone road that leads directly into the deep waters of the Triangle. Examine the case of the Cotopaxi, the ore ship lost at sea only to reappear decades later off the coast of Cuba, far beyond where it was last sighted in the Triangle’s maritime shipping lanes. These and other enigmatic cases will be stripped open and laid bare before the light of history as the reader is carried on a journey to the world’s most frightening and impenetrable mystery–The Bermuda Triangle.

This book is a superposition of two distinct narratives: the first is historical, discussing the evolution of astronomical knowledge since the dawn of civilizations; the second is scientific, conveying mathematical and physical content of each advancement. Great scientists of antiquity, Middle Ages and modern times until the 18th century, are presented along with their discoveries, through short biographies and anecdotes. Special care is taken to explain their achievements using mathematical and physical concepts of their time, with modern perspective added only when ancient methodology is too cumbersome or its language hardly understandable to contemporary readers.The book conveys a lot of astronomical facts and data in a pleasant and accessible manner. Almost all findings and discoveries made in ancient times are followed by simple mathematical exercises using basic knowledge, so that the reader can check the assertions himself. The book contains a lot of inedited illustrations. Geometrical schemes are given extra attention to make the examples clear and understandable. The language is simple and accessible to the young audience.
