Bang! Space time matter...the Universe was born 13.7 billion years ago. Infinitely small at first it expanded more rapidly than anyone can contemplate. Brian May Patrick Moore & Chris Lintott explain how all this came about from the moment when time & space came into existence to the formation of the first stars galaxies & planets & to the evolution of human beings able to contemplate our own origins & ultimate destiny. Then on towards that destiny in the infinite future long after the Earth has been consumed by the Red Giant Sun. The story is told in clear straight forward terms in the strict order in which the events happened & uses no mathematics. Bang!" is an amazing story & this newly revised text brings it " Bang!" up to date. Is it fiction? The authors hope not since it is based upon lifetimes work by great scientists such as Albert Einstein Stephen Hawking & hundreds of other brilliant minds. Enjoy & let your imagination run riot."
