View our offer Physics

Physics is the science that explores the foundations of the natural world. It investigates the fundamental forces, the interactions between matter and energy, and the laws that govern our universe. Physicists study phenomena at the microscopic level, such as particle physics, and at the macroscopic level, such as the motion of planets. Through experiments, mathematical models, and theoretical insights, physicists strive to understand and explain the complexity of the universe. Physics forms the basis for technological advancements and provides us with insights into the workings of the world around us.

    De 10 grootste vraagstukken van onze tijd vanuit het heelal bekeken

    Neil deGrasse Tyson plaatst de hedendaagse wereld in een nieuw, buitenaards perspectief In zijn nieuwe boek geeft de wereldberoemde astrofysicus Neil deGrasse Tyson een kosmische kijk op de problemen op onze planeet. Oorlog, discriminatie, verdeeldheid – DeGrasse Tyson bekijkt deze en andere symptomen van onze tijd vanuit wetenschappelijk oogpunt en helpt ons daarmee op een nieuwe, rationele manier naar de wereld te kijken. In zijn kenmerkende en toegankelijke stijl laat DeGrasse Tyson zien hoe kennis over onze rol en plaats in het universum leidt tot verrassende, briljante en waardevolle inzichten over onze maatschappij. Van oplossingen voor wereldwijde conflicten tot de kostbaarheid van ons bestaan: DeGrasse Tyson is onze gids op deze excursie vanuit de ruimte en toont hoe een kosmisch perspectief leidt tot een fundamenteler wereldbeeld dan ooit tevoren. Neil deGrasse Tyson is een Amerikaanse astrofysicus. Hij studeerde aan Harvard en Princeton, en werd in 1996 directeur van het Hayden Planetarium. Hij is een graag geziene gast bij verschillende Amerikaanse talkshows, geeft lezingen op universiteiten, heeft een eigen podcast en presenteerde de tv-serie Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey. Hij heeft meer dan 14,5 miljoen Twitter-volgers. Over Sterrenkunde voor mensen met haast:‘Dit boek blijft fascineren met beknopte en levendige verklaringen voor een breed scala aan astronomische onderwerpen. Een mustread voor astronomieliefhebbers.’ David J. Eicher, Astronomy
