Gutes Ex. - Kosmische Kollisionen genießen keinen sonderlich guten Ruf. Ob nun Planeten aufeinanderprallen, Galaxien zusammenstoßen oder gar ganze Universen kollidieren: Die Folgen sind immer dramatisch und meistens fatal. Kollisionen bringen aber nicht nur Zerstörung. Sie stehen auch am Anfang aller Dinge, ohne sie würde es kein Leben auf der Erde geben. Kommen Sie mit auf eine Tour durch das Universum! Sehen Sie aus sicherer Entfernung dabei zu, wie alles ineinanderkracht, Was im Weltall ineinanderkrachen kann! Von Asteroideneinscnlägen bis hin zu ganzen Universen, die zusammenstoßen, werden Sie die verschiedensten Kollisionen erleben und dabei feststellen, dass wir den kosmischen Katastrophen viel zu verdanken haben. Denn so schnell geht die Welt schließlich nicht unter. (Verlagstext) / INHALT : Vorwort. ---- Im Licht der Kollisionen. ---- Kollidierende Welten. ---- Fallende Steine. ---- Der Weltuntergang ist halb so schlimm. ---- Zwerge und Riesen. ---- Kollisionen ohne Rums. ---- Das Ende und ein neuer Anfang. ---- Nach dem großen Knall - noch mehr Bücher und abschließende Bemerkungen. ---- Glossar. ---- Register.
