Özet

The galaxy, the multiverse, and the history of astronomy are explored in this engaging compilation of cosmological "tales" by multiple award-winning science writer Marcia Bartusiak. In 32 concise and engrossing essays, the author provides a deeper understanding of the nature of the universe and those who strive to uncover its mysteries.

Bartusiak shares the back stories for many momentous astronomical discoveries, including the contributions of such pioneers as Beatrice Tinsley and her groundbreaking research in galactic evolution, and Jocelyn Bell Burnell, the scientist who first discovered radio pulsars. An endlessly fascinating collection that you can dip into in any order, these pieces will transport you to ancient Mars, when water flowed freely across its surface; to the collision of two black holes, a cosmological event that released fifty times more energy than was radiating from every star in the universe; and to the beginning of time itself.

Loved the content but the narrator had an annoying habit of lowering and increasing the volume of her otherwise lovely soothing voice at the beginning of a lot of sentences which became jarring and odd. Kept anticipating it, had to stop listening.

Great content but narration let it down

I enjoyed every chapter!!!!!
So easy to listen to. The narrator was not boring, even after so many chapters.

Excellent

Enjoyable short stories of discovery with a lovely narrator. I've heard the stories before, but this book manages to bring them to life.

Great narration

This is an interesting ramble through modern theories of cosmology consisting of loosely connected essays on individual themes. Sometimes they overlap - some clearly date pre 2000 - but give an interesting insight into the subject matter though some topics eg time in the context of quantum mechanics were beyond my comprehension as a non scientist. I will listen to this again.
The reading I found somewhat bizarre. The narrator’s default voice was pleasant and expressive. However, and for no reason based on content although often at the beginning of a sentence, she resorts to a grating mechanical delivery like a demented dalek before returning to her normal tone. Distracting!

Interestingly informative

Covered a lot of ground. Highlighted the achievements of lesser renowned scientists. Particularly women.

Enjoyable listen
