Description:
A superstar author chronicles our new age of exploration, discovering new worlds and describing how her team searches them for evidence of life
For thousands of years, humans have wondered whether we're alone in the cosmos. Now, for the first time, we have the technology to investigate. The question should have an obvious answer- yes or no. But once you try to find life elsewhere, you realize it is not so simple. How do you find it over cosmic distances? What actually is life?
As founding director of Cornell University's Carl Sagan Institute, astrophysicist Lisa Kaltenegger built a team of tenacious scientists from many disciplines to create a uniquely specialized toolkit to find life on faraway worlds. In Alien Earths, she demonstrates how we can use our homeworld as a Rosetta Stone, creatively analyzing Earth's history and its astonishing biosphere to inform this search. With infectious enthusiasm, she takes us on an eye-opening journey to the most unusual exoplanets that have shaken our worldview - planets covered in oceans of lava, lonely wanderers lost in space, and others with more than one sun in their sky! And the best contenders for Alien Earths. We also see the imagined worlds of science fiction and how close they come to reality.
We live in an incredible new epoch of exploration. As our witty and knowledgeable tour guide, Professor Kaltenegger shows how we discover not merely new continents, like the explorers of old, but whole new worlds circling other stars and how we could spot life there. Worlds from where aliens may even be gazing back at us. What if we're not alone?

Second time
So I’ll be honest I bought this a few years back no clue it’s purpose. Now just bought one to do
Go with firebox. I hooked up my mom’s box at Christmas and it’s in a closet. Yes I know not supposed to be in the closet but long story . That is where it is. So this extender device works. I still don’t really understand the purpose but we got the kitchen tv working yay!

Avoid this device – A costly mistake that restricts your access
I purchased the Amazon Fire TV Cube hoping to streamline my home entertainment, but it has been a total disappointment and a waste of hours trying to set it up. It is not compatible with my TDS TV+, one of the largest providers. The Amazon Fire TV Cube is garbage that just wants to sell a bunch of apps.
I am returning this immediately, and I strongly urge others to stay away. This device is a total rip-off. It effectively tries to force you into an ecosystem where you are pushed toward paid subscription services just to access basic local channels you should already be able to watch. It feels like a transparent attempt by Amazon to control and monetize your viewing habits, creating massive, unnecessary fees for content that is already included in standard service packages.
If you value your time and your money, look for a more open, compatible alternative. Do not buy this product unless you are looking for an expensive subscription trap.

Works perfectly with FireTv!
Configuration: Fire TV Soundbar
Plug and play with a smallish FireTv in a bedroom. Sounds great and works seamlessly with a FireTv remote using the included HDMI/arc cable. Exactly what I needed at a great price.
