Description
This richly illustrated Czech-language introduction to the greatest mysteries of physics explores how much humanity still does not understand about the universe. Why does the universe have a maximum speed? What is attacking Earth with tiny, superfast particles? What is dark matter, and why does it ignore us? Jorge Cham, creator of PhD Comics, joins particle physicist Daniel Whiteson to map the gaps in our knowledge, offering the best available answers through distinctive infographics, illustrations, humour and clear explanations. The book also clarifies subjects we understand rather better, from quarks and gravitational waves to exploding black holes, showing that the universe remains a vast unexplored territory waiting to be discovered.
