From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Astrophysics for People in a Hurry comes a follow-up guide to more of the most popular questions about the universe. In this companion volume to Merlin's Tour of the Universe, Neil de Grasse Tyson presents a completely new collection of questions and answers about the cosmos for stargazers of all ages. Whether waxing about Earth and its environs, the Sun and its stellar siblings, the world of light, physical laws, or galaxies near and far, Merlin--a fictional visitor from Planet Omniscia and our guide to the universe--is easy to understand, often humorous, and always entertaining. Merlin fields a wide range of questions from many curious mortals, and in so doing draws on his own vast knowledge as well as the expertise of many close friends, including Archimedes, Galileo, Einstein, and Santa. Merlin hasn't been stumped yet, responding to questions including: If aliens exploded our moon, what effect would it have on us? What are your thoughts on the theory that a star named Nemesis is circling our solar system and was responsible for killing off the dinosaurs? Is it true that if I leave a container on my roof for a period of time, I can actually collect space particles from outer space? Delightfully illustrated throughout, Just Visiting This Planet is a timeless book for lovers of the universe by one of its brightest lights.

For Pluto, summer has always started with a trip to the planetarium. It’s the launch to her favorite season, which also includes visits to the boardwalk arcade, working in her mom’s pizzeria, and her best friend Meredith’s birthday party. But this summer, none of that feels possible. A month before the end of the school year, Pluto’s frightened mom broke down Pluto’s bedroom door. What came next were doctor’s appointments, a diagnosis of depression, and a big black hole that still sits on Pluto’s chest, making it too hard to do anything. Pluto can’t explain to her mom why she can’t do the things she used to love. And it isn’t until Pluto’s dad threatens to make her move with him to the city—where he believes his money, in particular, could help—that Pluto becomes desperate enough to do whatever it takes to be the old Pluto again. She develops a plan and a checklist: If she takes her medication, if she goes to the planetarium with her mom for her birthday, if she successfully finishes her summer school work with her tutor, if she goes to Meredith’s birthday party . . . if she does all the things that “normal” Pluto would do, she can stay with her mom in Jersey. But it takes a new therapist, a new tutor, and a new (and cute) friend with a checklist and plan of her own for Pluto to learn that there is no old and new Pluto. There’s just her.

Move into the Present Room and Enjoy Your Life “The Three Rooms is a heartfelt seminal text which addresses self-understanding in spatial and temporal terms, simple enough for a child to understand, yet deep enough to awaken a true spiritual seeker.” —Dr. Michael R. Cunningham, Chancellor, National University System Most of us are sleepwalking, focusing on the physical world when we should be paying attention to our inner selves, and to being in the present. The Three Rooms will help readers awaken and align with their Higher Self. The book uses the metaphor of rooms to represent places our thoughts go: backwards to the Past Room, forward to the Future Room, or now in the Present Room. In the Present Room, there are no regrets of the past or fears of the future; it is the ideal state “where we can find joy, peace, acceptance, and compassion,” among other positive emotions. That is where we are meant to be.

A Standalone Short Story with No Cliffhanger! Roderick was eager to take over the throne and become king of planet Avant, but his father had other plans for him. The often stoic and disagreeable prince must first find a wife before he can ‘inherit’ the throne. The young, handsome prince drew plenty of attention from the females on his own planet easily enough, but he suspected they were just being nice to him because he was a prince. It wasn’t easy to meet someone who treated him like a regular alien. Then his mother urges Roderick to travel to Earth, to search for woman who doesn’t know him and could be a perfect wife. Roderick meets Isabella. He’s drawn to her at first sight and knows that the beautiful woman from Earth is the one for him. Being a prince, Roderick just takes Isabella back to his home planet of Avant where he marries her and finally takes the throne as king. Isabella is stunned. She has no idea what she’s been thrown into on Avant. All of a sudden she is married and queen of an entire planet. Will Isabella and Roderick get along? Will their marriage ever be a true one? --- TAGS: alpha male alien romance, alpha male romance, scifi alien romance, alien abduction romance, alpha male aliens, alien fantasy books, alien romance, aliens, scifi romance, Space opera romance, science fiction romance, steamy science fiction romance, hot aliens, fantasy alien romance, paranormal romance, military science fiction books, paranormal with sex, fantasy fiction, psychic romance, steamy paranormal romance, sci fi romance, sci-fi romance, Fated mates, alien mate, new adult, genetic engineering, alien contact, alpha male, alpha female, supernatural, alien invasion romance

The New York Times bestseller: "You gotta read this. It is the most exciting book about Pluto you will ever read in your life." —Jon Stewart When the Rose Center for Earth and Space at the American Museum of Natural History reclassified Pluto as an icy comet, the New York Times proclaimed on page one, "Pluto Not a Planet? Only in New York." Immediately, the public, professionals, and press were choosing sides over Pluto's planethood. Pluto is entrenched in our cultural and emotional view of the cosmos, and Neil deGrasse Tyson, award-winning author and director of the Rose Center, is on a quest to discover why. He stood at the heart of the controversy over Pluto's demotion, and consequently Plutophiles have freely shared their opinions with him, including endless hate mail from third-graders. With his inimitable wit, Tyson delivers a minihistory of planets, describes the oversized characters of the people who study them, and recounts how America's favorite planet was ousted from the cosmic hub.

Humanity's primary defining feature is our ability to design systems, but at the same time, such hallmark is our downfall because our systems have the potential for enslaving and destroying the human race. A system is a good servant but an evil master. Not realizing the dangers that lurk within systems, we foolishly enslaved humanity under ghoulish concepts. In this book, we tell the story of a cruel and oppressive system called tribalism. A master-slave social order, which endorsed two classes in society; one endured by abusing and enslaving the other for thousands of years, until the inevitable rise of distribia. Travel with us on a journey in time to a world free of tribalism. To a society free of representation, delegation, intermediation, centralization, and zoning to discover the beautiful way of life of distribia’s fascinating peer-to-peer society.
