    The Moon : The Gabriel Ramirez Series, Book 69 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 66min
    There's just too much coincidence in one object, which just happens to have a pattern of craters that we recognize as a face. Scientist says that a collision made the moon with another planet, and that it spun around making a perfect circle I'm sorry, but it makes no sense that two worlds collided exploded and so close to our planet. The moon was formed over 60 billion years ago, according to some wacky scientist. I mean, what gravitational pull pulled the debris to one point to form the moon?If two planets collided to spin around to make our moon why is it that the moon is stationary it does not spin? Why is the moon large compared to Earth, and melted? Why is its orbit nearly co-planar with Earth's, and almost circular? Why does the Earth have a larger iron core than other rocky planets in the Solar System? Why are the rocks from the moon so similar to Earth's chemically? Why are those rocks so old, but not quite as old as Earth's age? Why is there a high mass anomaly on the moon? Why does Earth have a relatively fast spin rate it does? Let's find out shall we. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kristine Hegglin. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/182188/bk_acx0_182188_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Dead Kid Detective Agency , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 562min
    Thirteen-year-old October Schwartz is new in town, short on friends, and the child of a clinically depressed science teacher. Naturally, she spends most of her time in the Sticksville Cemetery, which just happens to border her backyard. And that backyard just happens to be the home of five dead teenagers, each from a different era of the past: There's the dead United Empire Loyalist! The dead escaped slave who made her way north via the Underground Railroad! The dead quintuplet! Soon October befriends the five dead kids. Together - using October's smarts and the dead kids' abilities to walk through walls and get around undetected and stuff - they form The Dead Kid Detective Agency, committed to solving Sticksville's most mysterious mysteries. October's like Nancy Drew, if she'd hung out with corpses. When Sticksville Central High School's beloved French teacher dies in a suspicious car accident, it provides the agency with its first bona fide case. Soon October and her five dead friends find themselves in the midst of a nefarious murder plot, thick with car chases, cafeteria fights, sociopathic math teachers, real estate appointments, and a wacky adventure that might uncover the truth about a bomb that exploded almost 40 years ago. ungekürzt.

    Robert Griffin III: Athlete, Leader, Believer , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 352min
    Robert Griffin III exploded onto the NFL scene with a style and flair anything but typical. With a Heisman Trophy on his mantel, RG3 entered professional football in 2012 under a spotlight that glowed beyond his own team, the Washington Redskins. Could the Baylor graduate electrify the NFL as he had the college game? Could he return a fabled franchise to the realm of elite Super Bowl contenders? Author Ted Kluck deepens the listener’s connection to a man who became the face of a revered NFL franchise before his 23rd birthday. One player fueled by infectious enthusiasm for his craft. One man whose authenticity somehow seems to match his otherworldly skills on the gridiron. RG3’s focus on victory stood second only to the wisdom of his father: “Remember faith first.” Kluck follows RG3’s career from the very beginning. In addition, he dives into RG3’s relationships with and comparisons to players such as Tim Tebow, Michael Vick, Marcus Lattimore, Kyle Shanahan, Randall Cunningham, Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, and more. Robert Griffin III’s story surpasses standings and statistics. Succeeding as a professional athlete is a challenge of the first order. Thriving as a cross-cultural phenomenon is the foundation of legends. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Maurice England.

    The Man From Clear Lake: Earth Day Founder Senator Gaylord Nelson , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 742min
    On Earth Day 1970 20 million Americans displayed their commitment to a clean environment. It was called the largest demonstration in human history, and it permanently changed the nation's political agenda. By Earth Day 2000 participation had exploded to 500 million people in 167 countries. The seemingly simple idea—a day set aside to focus on protecting our natural environment—was the brainchild of U.S. Senator Gaylord Nelson of Wisconsin. It accomplished, far beyond his expectations, his lifelong goal of putting the environment onto the nation's and the world's political agendas. A remarkable man, Nelson ranks as one of history's leading environmentalists. He also played a major role as an early, outspoken opponent of the Vietnam War, and as a senate insider was a key player in civil rights, poverty, civil liberties and consumer protection issues. The life of Nelson, a small town boy who learned his values and progressive political principles at an early age, is woven through the political history of the twentieth century. Nelson's story intersects at times with Fighting Bob La Follette, Joe McCarthy, and Bill Proxmire in Wisconsin, and with George McGovern, Lyndon Johnson, Hubert Humphrey, Russell Long, Walter Mondale, John F. Kennedy, and others on the national scene. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: David Henry. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/crvn/000017/bk_crvn_000017_sample.mp3.
