EXPLORE THE UNIVERSE IN DR. SEUSS-STYLE RHYME Ladies and gents, listen up if you please! Let's hop in a rocket and zoom past the trees. We'll check out the Moon and black holes; we adore 'em! Of course, we'll find planets and stars and explore 'em Determine just how old our Universe is. And please, don't you worry. There won't be a quiz! Astronomer Sean Raymond wraps space facts in poetry, explaining complex topics in playful prose. Drawings by Owen Raymond illustrate how our Universe works, from the phases of the Moon to "spaghettification." Eleven astronomical poems cover topics ranging from telescopes to black holes, from galaxies to the search for extra-terrestrial life, from the Big Bang to the planets. PRAISE FOR BLACK HOLES, STARS, EARTH AND MARS This book (with its wacky poems and Dr. Seuss-like rhymes) appeals both to adults' inner child, and to the curious natural scientist in all our children. The illustrations by a 12-year old artist convey a reassuring sense of "I got this!" -- Jill Tarter, Astronomer and pioneer of SETI (the Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence) This delightful book is a gentle reminder of the better things in life, and science. With echoes of Dr Seuss and the skilled crafting of Edward Lear, Raymond and Raymond create a world well worth losing yourself in, all the while telling a story about the frontiers of our understanding of the universe. An absolute pleasure. -- Caleb Scharf, Director of Astrobiology at Columbia University and author of The Copernicus Complex Cutting edge concepts dished out in poetry you'll want to be reading in striped pyjamas, Raymond presents clear explanations of the biggest concepts in astronomy today in a form guaranteed to intrigue and delight both scientists and artists of all ages. -- Elizabeth Tasker, Astrophysicist, science communicator, and author of The Planet Factory Black Holes, Stars, Earth and Mars is like an Astronomy 101 textbook wrapped up in delightful Dr. Seuss style poetry. It's remarkably comprehensive and covers serious physics, but the easy rhymes make it simple to understand. I'd recommend it for kids learning about space, but also for any astronomy enthusiast! -- Gillian Rhodes, Astronomy/Art Fusion Show Host and Dancer/Choreographer

Forget about rockets to Mars – the future of space science lies with the search for exoplanets Twenty years ago, the search for planets outside the Solar System was the preserve of science-fiction writers. Now it's one of the fastest-growing fields in astronomy, with thousands of exoplanets discovered to date, and the number rising fast. These new-found worlds are more alien than anything in fiction. Planets larger than Jupiter with years lasting a week; others with two suns lighting their skies, or with no sun at all. Planets with diamond mantles supporting oceans of tar; possible Earth-sized worlds with split hemispheres of perpetual day and night; waterworlds drowning under global oceans and volcanic lava planets awash with seas of magma. The discovery of this diversity is just the beginning. There is a whole galaxy of possibilities. The Planet Factory tells the story of these exoplanets. What can we learn about these faraway surface environments and planetary atmospheres? And do the results hint at the tantalising possibility of alien life?

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Astrophysics for People in a Hurry comes a fascinating guide to the most popular questions about the universe. In Neil de Grasse Tyson's delightful tour of the galaxies, his fictional character Merlin responds to popular astronomy questions asked by adults and children alike. Merlin, a visitor from Planet Omniscia in the Andromeda Galaxy, has been friends with many of the most important scientific figures of the past, including da Vinci, Magellan, Doppler, Einstein, and Hubble—and he often recounts his conversations with these historical figures in his explanations. Merlin's illuminating answers feature a unique combination of wit and poetry along with serious science explained in refreshingly clear, reader-friendly language. Dear Merlin: Can a person cross our galaxy in a spaceship during one human lifespan? Merlin: In 1905, Merlin's good friend Albert Einstein introduced the "Special Theory of Relativity," which predicts that time will tick slower and slower the faster you travel. Were you to embark on such an adventure you could conceivably age as little as you wish, depending of course, on your exact speed. The problem arises when you return to Earth, which will have moved several hundred thousand years into the future and everyone will have forgotten about you. A timeless book for lovers of the universe by one of its greatest lights.
