Clarke - <em>Though The World May Die, Man Will Go On.</em></p><p>Sir Arthur C. Clarke was a British science fiction writer, futurist, and inventor, best known for his novel <em>2001: A Space Odyssey</em> and his contributions to both science and science fiction. His work blended rigorous scientific accuracy with imaginative speculation, earning him a place among the greatest sci-fi authors of the 20th century.</p><p>Born on December 16, 1917, in Minehead, England, Clarke developed an early fascination with space and technology. After serving as a radar specialist in World War II, he studied mathematics and physics at Kings College London. His wartime work on radar helped shape his later ideas on satellite communication, leading to his 1945 proposal for geostationary satellites, a concept that later became reality.</p><p>Clarkes writing career took off in the 1940s with stories published in <em>Astounding Science Fiction</em>. His breakthrough novel, <em>Childhoods End</em> (1953), explored the transformative effects of alien contact on humanity. He became known for his grand visions of the future, blending scientific plausibility with deep philosophical themes.</p><p>Beyond fiction, Clarke was an advocate for space exploration and technological progress. His prediction of communication satellites earned him recognition from NASA and other scientific institutions.</p><p>Arthur C. Clarke passed away on March 19, 2008, in Sri Lanka, where he had lived for decades.</p>...6928385Transience2020https://www.gandhi.com.mx/transience-9798347910151/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/6850139/image.jpg?v=638747161267800000InStockMXN99999DIAudiolibro2025Inglés
