Synopsis

The cosmos comes to life in this truly spectacular look at our ever-expanding universe through the lens of the Hubble telescope.

“Gasp-worthy photographs. . . . This title should be essential reading.” —The Bulletin

Have you ever wished you could travel back in time? Visit a galaxy light-years away? See a star being born? The Hubble telescope has allowed scientists to do just that. Its dazzling images have transformed astronomy, shedding light on the deepest mysteries of the cosmos and helping scientists find new galaxies and look back in time nearly to the big bang. Through the eye of the Hubble, Elaine Scott skillfully guides readers along the evolution of our universe, investigating a question that was once unanswerable: “Where did we come from?”
