Bang!! Ucelená historie vesmíru – Lintott Chris (2024)

Today we know that the stars in the sky are distant suns, many of which are larger and brighter than ours, making Earth an insignificant planet. But what lies beyond all this? How did the universe come into being? How does it evolve and how will it eventually end - if it really does end? Rock musician and astrophysicist Brian May, legendary Sir Patrick Moore, and astrophysicists Chris Lintott and Hannah Wakeford tell the story of the universe from the birth of space and time at the Big Bang to the distant future, both predictable and unimaginably far away. The updated and expanded edition of the book Bang! - a bestseller about the origin and evolution of the universe - is supplemented with the latest findings about stars and galaxies, discoveries of planets, and new theories about dark matter and dark energy. The text is accompanied by stunning photographs from the largest telescopes, both terrestrial and space. With the development of telescopes and technology, it seems that astronomy is on the brink of another revolution. So it's a good time to take stock of what we know (and what we don't know) about the universe.
