  • Eclipses
    Frank Close
    'Have you ever seen a total solar eclipse?' If the question caused you to search your memory, the correct answer would have been 'no.' A common response is: 'Yes--I saw one, it was about 90% partial eclipse where I lived.' A 90% partial eclipse is indeed a remarkable phenomenon, but true totality leaves all else in the shade, in all senses of the phrase. Ask the question of any...

  • Antimatter
    Frank Close
    Antimatter explores a strange mirror world, where particles have identical yet opposite properties to those that make up the familiar matter we encounter everyday; where left becomes right, positive becomes negative; and where, should matter and antimatter meet, the two annihilate in a blinding flash of energy that makes even thermonuclear explosions look feeble by comparison. ...
