UMO: A Chilling Tale of First Contact , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 137min

Buckle up for this chilling novella tale of first contact!When three probes sent to Mars suffer suspicious catastrophic failures, a clandestine manned mission is dispatched to investigate the probes’ wreckage for clues to explain their demise. The manned mission is led by Lieutenant Colonel Avery Lockett. He is joined by flight engineer, Captain Nick Reed, and mission specialist, Dr. Christine Baker. Together they embark on a dangerous journey aboard the spaceship Cetus Prime - dangerous because they know what awaits them around Mars. UMOs, or unidentified magnetic objects.UMOs are believed to be an electromagnetic life form feeding on ions caught between Earth’s magnetosphere and ionosphere. The elusive creatures appear as nothing more than small bright lights, but they are capable of supersonic speeds and non-ballistic motion. Space exploration authorities have, at various times, provided benign explanations for these bright lights; melting frost shed by spacecraft caught in sunlight, solar wind particles or flaming meteors bouncing off the Earth’s atmosphere, to name a few. Anything but an alien life form.Disavowed for decades, the UMOs had been viewed as harmless, amoeba-like blobs that existed only around Earth, as none had ever been observed by deep space probes to other planets in the solar system. But that perception changed with the final photographs snapped by one of the doomed Mars probes. The pictures showed a swarm of UMOs descending upon the probe in the moments before communication was lost. Instrument readings from the same probe showed huge spikes in electromagnetic radiation in its last transmission.No one knows for sure what happened to the Mars probes, but authorities speculate the UMOs destroyed them. Now, Avery, Nick and Christine must travel 65 million miles to Mars and gather evidence to confirm what destroyed the probes without attracting a swarm of the lethal creatures. ungekürzt.

First Life on Earth, Scientific Adam & Eve , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 62min

From the earliest days as thinking humans we have had many questions about life. We have had fewer acceptable answers. This is beginning to change as we are learning more and more about life and how it developed. I grew up in the Bible Belt of Mississippi. We were taught that God created all life and then He created Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. But then I read about ancient fossils of human-like creatures and started learning about evolution. So what is the truth? Am I to continue to believe the literal words of the Bible or the findings of archeology and the related scientific evidence? I had to find the truth so I started my search. Let's explore what I learned. As we walk about Earth and look around we learn that there are about 10 million species of animals and several hundred thousand species of plants, but all the lives that we see are latecomers on planet Earth. And even the fossils of old that we find, when added to the life forms of today, make up only a small fraction of species that have lived on planet Earth. To understand the first life on earth and the first man on earth, we need to explore what life really is, how it got started, and how we came to be. Earth's life forms vary in complexity from one-cell creatures such as amoeba to the most complex, which is man. All life on planet earth is designed and operated by its DNA, which is a very large molecule in the nucleus of each cell. The DNA caries codes that perform 3 functions: 1) Build the proteins that structure our bodies 2) Operate switches that turn the protein-making genes off and on 3) Operate the "command center" that activates the switches. I quickly learned that life is DNA. The Bible taught me that God created all life on earth. He then created Adam and Eve as the first humans. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Lynn Benson.
