    About this ebook

    Synopsis

    The physics of the universe are known within this community of mature species. The origin and the pre-origin of the universe are known. The workings of space-time and the various numerical dimensions are known to such an exact extent that almost all theories of the physical universe, from the very macro through the infinitesimally micro, have become laws. Such laws have been known for many hundreds of years, although some species have known them for more than two millennia.
    Interstellar travel among the mature species of this community of species has long been in existence. The speed of this travel is well beyond the speed measured against the speed of light. Gravity is the essence of this travel; but that is not part of this discussion other than to note that the very ancient theory of quantum physics hinted at such travel via its (then) theory of entanglement in association with so-called, `black matter’ that is found in abundance throughout all space.
    So, as the ladder of knowledge and technological advancement slowly played out over the many hundreds of years, very little of the physical universe remains an unknown. In fact, it would be a challenge for any individual in this community of species to immediately state what does indeed remain unknown within their physical universe.
    The challenge, therefore, has shifted to the understanding, acquisition and implementation of wisdom. But as some within this community have stated, such a goal may well be unattainable in reality; others strongly disagree. Whatever the outcome, a major source of research for this ambitious and rather audacious undertaking are the many millions of intelligent species found throughout the galaxy that have not attained maturity – almost all of whom will never survive to attain this level of development.
    It is through discrete observation and benign interaction among these immature species, by this community of mature species, that vital knowledge is gained toward the true understanding of wisdom on a universal scale.
    Such research is planned deliberately and methodically by the best academic minds within this community; with all these individuals having had considerable experience observing and researching intelligent species.
    Every `guide’ or overview of a particular, intelligent species will have been produced and published by various acclaimed professors within the community. Such a guide must be read by any individual who is considering the researching or observing of a specific, intelligent species.
