Astronomy - The Science of the Heavenly Bodies by David Todd audiobook.
Genre: science
The progress of astronomy from age to age has been far from uniform—rather by leaps and bounds: from the earliest epoch when man's planet earth was the center about which the stupendous cosmos wheeled, for whom it was created, and for whose edification it was maintained—down to the modern age whose discoveries have ascertained that even our stellar universe, the vast region of the solar domain, is but one of the thousands of island universes that tenant the inconceivable immensities of space. So rapid, indeed, has been the progress of astronomy in very recent years that the present is especially favorable for setting forth its salient features; and this book is an attempt to present the wide range of astronomy in readable fashion, as if a story with a definite plot, from its origin with the shepherds of ancient Chaldea down to present-day ascertainment of the actual scale of the universe, and definite measures of the huge volume of supersolar giants among the stars.

The Airship Boys in the Great War by De Lysle Ferree Cass audiobook.
Genre: adventure
When a newspaper headline announces that young reporter Bob Russell has been captured in Europe and accused of spying, his closest friends refuse to stand by and wait for diplomacy to work. Alan Hope and Ned Napier, celebrated teen aviators whose exploits have already carried them across oceans and into danger, race to the offices of The Herald with a desperate proposal: recommission the Ocean Flyer, their powerful airship, and fly straight into the opening chaos of World War I. Joined by quick-witted colleague Buck Stewart and backed by the wary but sympathetic managing editor, Mr. Latimer, the boys launch a high-stakes rescue that takes them from the safety of America to the skies above a continent at war. As borders harden, patrols multiply, and suspicion falls on anyone who does not belong, every decision becomes a gamble - and every mile closer to Bob brings new threats from enemy forces, treacherous terrain, and the unforgiving limits of early aviation. Fast-paced and patriotic in tone, this classic tale blends daring flight, newsroom urgency, and loyal friendship under the shadow of 1914's Great War.
