The Universe. A Brief History of the Cosmos: from the Solar System to Dark Matter
The sky has fascinated humanity since ancient times. From Sumerian lunar calendars to NASA photographs, people continue to ask questions about how the cosmos is arranged. Zak Scott invites the reader on an exciting journey through the Universe, explaining in...
accessible terms the Solar System, the birth of galaxies, dark matter, the Big Bang, and much more. Scott writes simply about complex subjects: what gravity is, how stars shine, when the Big Bang ended, and whether it has actually ended at all. Along with this unique and detailed guide to the most mysterious corners of the cosmos, you will learn about black holes, visit the M87 galaxy, see where it all began, and how it will end. The author convincingly and clearly constructs a chronology of the Universe's existence and offers hypotheses about the future when the stars will extinguish and everything around will perish. The book contains original author infographics, colorful illustrations, and detailed diagrams.
