Krátky popis
From the Big Bang to the Gaia Mission, this is a very personal
history of the universe through the author's favourite 100 stars.
Astronomer Florian Freistetter has chosen 100 stars that have
almost nothing in common. Some are bright and famous, some shine so
feebly you need a huge telescope.There are big stars, small stars,
nearby stars and faraway stars. Some died a while ago, others have
not even yet come into being. Collectively they tell the story of
the whole world, according to Freistetter.There is Algol, for
example, the Demon Star, whose strange behaviour has long caused
people sleepless nights. And Gamma Draconis, from which we know
that the earth rotates around its own axis. There is also the star
sequence 61 Cygni, which revealed the size of the cosmos to us.Then
there are certain stars used by astronomers to search for
extra-terrestrial life, to explore interstellar space travel, or to
explain why the dinosaurs became extinct. In 100 short, fascinating
and entertaining chapters, Freistetter not only reveals the past
and future of the cosmos, but also the story of the people who have
tried to understand the world in which we live.
