Just Visiting This Planet, Revised and Updated for the Twenty-First Century: Further Scientific Adventures of Merlin from Omniscia - Hardcover

Neil deGrasse Tyson's latest collection of cosmic questions answered with wit and rigor. What's up there, and why should you care.

Tyson writes in this book as if he's at a bar with you, explaining the universe over a drink. Black holes, time dilation, whether aliens could reach Earth, whether the universe is infinite. Each question sounds simple until you try to answer it. Each answer opens three more questions.

This is ideal for faculty who want to stay current on what cosmology looks like in 2025 and beyond. Tyson has a gift for making the frontier of physics feel accessible. Assign sections to intrigue students. Read it yourself when you need a reset on scale and perspective.
