From Earth, to the solar neighborhood, and into the galaxy, Neil deGrasse Tyson, the ever irrepressible astrophysicist and author of Welcome to the Universe, launches readers on a rolicking interstellar voyage charting the arc of humanity's long reach into the cosmos... and beyond. Filled with fascinating illustrations, photographs, and side bar details. Hold on tight and enjoy the journey!
No one can make the mysteries of the universe more comprehensible and fun than Neil deGrasse Tyson. Drawing on mythology, history, and literature—alongside his trademark wit and charm—Tyson and StarTalk senior producer Lindsey Nyx Walker bring planetary science down to Earth and principles of astrophysics within reach. In this entertaining book, illustrated with vivid photographs and art, readers travel through space and time, starting with the Big Bang and voyaging to the far reaches of the universe and beyond. Along the way, science greets pop culture as Tyson explains the triumphs—and bloopers—in Hollywood’s blockbusters: all part of an entertaining ride through the cosmos.
