Publisher's Synopsis
Which of these odd events, if any, could genuinely exist in our universe? Black holes, from which anything can fall but from which nothing can return; wormholes, short space warps connecting regions of the cosmos; singularities, where space and time are so violently warped that time ceases to exist and space becomes a kind of foam; gravitational waves, which carry symphonic accounts of collisions of black holes billions of years ago; and time machines, for traveling backward and forward in time.
In this masterfully written and brilliantly informed work of scientific history and research, Jimmy M. Boyce leads his readers through an elegant, always human, tapestry of interlocking themes, finally coming to a uniquely informed revelation about THE NASA WEB TELESCOPE, together with the interesting and mind-blowing facts about black holes you should know. It's a wonderful planet we inhabit, but how well do you know it? Join Jimmy M. Boyce with amazing insights about astronomy as we have never seen it! It's a one click away to exploring the mind-blowing facts about black holes in this book.
