You Are Here: A User's Guide to the Universe

4.9/5 (28182 ratings)
Description:The star Rigel is nearly a thousand light years away. If California was a thousand light years long, the bacteria between a movie star's teeth would be like clusters of planets.Have you boggled your mind today? You Are Here is only 120 pages in the paperback edition, but it contains everything, from quantum foam to the Unobservable Universe.What science tells about our alien world belongs to all of us, and it can be imagined and grasped and understood. People say that this or that thing is "just too big (or small, or complicated, or weird) to imagine”—but let’s not give up so easily! Let’s see if we can find ways to imagine them. Because science tells us things about where we live that are, in the most literal sense of that overused word, wonderful. And a universe is a terrible thing to waste.If the Milky Way is Boston, and Andromeda is New York City, the giant elliptical galaxy IC 1101 is the whole of North America. On the same scale, our entire solar system out to Neptune is a grain of sugar in Harvard Square.EXTRA! Ten pages of notes on everything from cellular slime molds to rogue waves and Dark Energy.EXTRA EXTRA!! (So exciting, you may have a Lorentz Contraction) "Einstein Sheds Light on Time: The Tale of Zippy the Tourist."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
