Randall Munro (Written by) / Michiyo Yoshida (Translation) Hayakawa Shobo (Publishing House) 2015June 24 - (Release date) Kindle version (Format) The author worked as a roboticist at NASA after、He is said to be a person who became a web cartoonist.。 "Love and irony、数学と言語のウェブコミック」というサイトを運営しているらしい。 This book is、Submitted to a submission site derived from it、A compilation of answers to various questions about science from readers.。 It seems to have become a bestseller in the United States.。 question. If you try to hit a baseball thrown at 90 percent of the speed of light、どんなことが起こりますか? ――エレン・マクマニス (「相対論的野球」、電子書籍のためページ数不明) 上のようなおかしな質問を、While the author uses science to have a sense of humor、We will answer with all our might.。 1One answer is quite voluminous.、I thought the author had researched and thought a lot.。 What I personally found interesting were the following themes:。 「相対論的野球」 「使用済み核燃料プール」 「レーザー・ポインター」 「元素周期表を現物で作る」 「最後の人工の光」 「半分空のコップ」 「惑星間セスナ」 「ヨーダ」 「軌道速度」 「フェデックスのデータ伝送速度」 「いちばん寂しい人」 たとえば、In "FedEx Data Transmission Rate"、It says that the transmission speed of the Internet is slower than the speed of the data that FedEx delivers.。 "The data transmission speed of the station wagon, which is piled up with a pile of tape and runs at breakneck speed on the highway,、ゆめゆめあなどってはならない」 ――アンドリュー・タネンバウム (「フェデックスのデータ伝送速度」、電子書籍のためページ数不明) 僕はインターネットが速いものだと思っていたので、This made me feel like scales from my eyes。 Also、In "The Loneliest Person"、It was written about who was the most alone in humanity apart from others.。 Here appeared、The story of an astronaut named Mike Collins of Apollo 11 made me cringe.。 He was the one who remained alone in lunar orbit as a command ship pilot.、In his book, "Carrying Fire: An Astronaut's Journey," he wrote:。 Now I'm alone、I'm Really Alone、And、Completely separated from all known creatures。I am just "it" that has nothing to do with others。If you count the number of people、On the other side of the moon is 3 billion plus 2 people、On this side、Who besides one person、Or God Only Knows What's Going On、be。 ("The loneliest person")、電子書籍のためページ数不明) 宇宙空間に一人でいるなんて、I get anxious just imagining it.。 Another thing that impressed me was the story of otaku.。 In the "Interplanetary Cessna"、About the people who made the X-plane flight simulator、In "Yoda"、I couldn't help but laugh when I read that Star Wars fans publish detailed information about Star Wars on a site called Wookieepedia.。 There are enthusiastic enthusiasts in some field in the world.。 I thought it would be nice to find something I liked so much。
