With wit,        charm, and everyday analogies, he brings planetary science down        to earth and principles of astrophysics within reach. In this        entertaining book, illustrated with vivid photographs and art,        readers travel with him through space and time, starting with        the big bang and voyaging to the far reaches of the universe        and beyond. Along the way, we glean facts of science, triumphs,        and bloopers from history and pop culture-all part of a joyful        ride through the cosmos with a wise and effervescent guide.              "The book begins as we leave Earth and encounter new truths       about our planet's atmosphere, the nature of sunlight, and the       many missions that have demystified our galactic neighbors. But       the farther out we travel, the weirder things get. What's a       void and what's a vacuum? Is light a wave or a particle?       Classic physics experiments intersect with iconic Hollywood       movie scenes to explain the universe and our place in it. When       we finally arrive in the blackness of outer space, Tyson takes       on the spookiest phenomena of the cosmos: parallel worlds,       black holes, time travel, and more.              "For space enthusiasts, astrophysics brainiacs, and the       millions who follow Tyson's podcast and social media posts,       Cosmic Conundrums is a provocative window into the intricacies       of the cosmos.              SUPPORT a local bookshop of your choice:       https://bookshop.org/a/93260/9781426223303                     --- OpenXP 5.0.57        * Origin: Mobile?
