"A fiery supernova explodes. A gigantic nebula spreads its beauty across the night sky. Stars and planets vibrate with frequencies beyond human sight. Spectral music glides from the depths of space.
Dr. Fiorella Terenzi brings it all to you in this entertaining and richly informative study of the universe beyond human sight. Dodging Centaurus A, reclining on the Andromeda Galaxy, exploding into the Veil Nebula, Dr. Terenzi looks beyond the range of human vision to show you the evolution of stars, black holes, and even glimpses of the origin of the universe itself. This inspired blend of science and art will transform the night sky for viewers of all ages.
