Does the Big Bang prove the existence of God?
What's the Universe expanding into?
Is Earth the only planet with life?
Why did the greatest astronomer in history murder his pet moose?
Space is the biggest, oldest, hottest, coldest, strangest thing a human can study. It's no surprise then, that the weirdest facts in science (not to mention the weirdest scientists themselves) are found in astrophysics and cosmology.
If you're looking for instructions on how to set up your grandad's telescope . . . this book probably isn't for you. In Astronomical, Tim James takes us on a tour of the known (and unknown) Universe, focusing on the most-mind boggling stuff we've come across, as well as unpacking the latest theories about what's really going on out there.
Guiding us through Einstein's relativity, quantum mechanics and string theory, Astronomical delves into the baffling corners of the cosmos and tackles the biggest mysteries we face. From alien life to the zodiac. From white holes to wormholes. From quasars to quark stars. This is the science of space at its absolute strangest!
Praise for the author
'Humorous, yet deep . . . Fundamental will speak to all readers'
Professor Charles Antoine, Sorbonne University
'Who said science was dry? Certainly not Tim James'
