The Infinity Option

This fact-based book informs us that danger awaits Earth. On December 31, 2009, NASA’s Voyager interstellar space probe reported a hydrogen cloud into which we will be plunged for what may be tens of thousands of years. This cloud threatens all life on Earth because hydrogen neutral and positive particles may pass through the solar system’s protective magnetic barrier and cause solar flares and, when reaching Earth’s atmosphere, will explosively combine with oxygen to create worldwide floods.

Irene Moreau, PhD, formerly of the Voyager program, and a small group of other scientists propose a defense that requires worldwide cooperation.

Neuroscience’s recent discoveries show that Buddhist meditative practice produces human brain gamma waves, which in turn produce compassionate impulses, creativity, and alpha waves that produce thinking. A Buddhist neuroscientist, Shinjiro Miroku,
teams up with Moreau, and these recent scientific discoveries create a thrilling, educational, and inspiring story.
