		<description><![CDATA[<i>Something Incredibly Wonderful Happens</i>, K.C. Cole’s newly published biography of the "uncle of the atom bomb," as Frank Oppenheimer called himself, recounts the touching and sometimes tortuous relationship between Frank, Ernest Lawrence, and other physicists as they struggled to find a way to survive a nuclear age. Oppenheimer's solution was to found an extraordinary science museum, the Exploratorium. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Three-quarters of the Universe is dark energy, but nobody knows what it is. Is it an unknown form of energy that fills space, or an illusion caused by extra dimensions of space? Or is it just a flaw in Einstein’s theory of gravity? Proven techniques for investigating these questions are being refined, while new techniques are beginning to be applied to one of the most pressing problems in 21st-century physics. Part 1 discusses supernovae as standard candles. ]]></description>
