Summary
For science geeks, space and physics nerds, and all who want to understand their place in the universe, this enlightening new book from Neil deGrasse Tyson offers a unique take on the mysteries and curiosities of the cosmos, building on rich material from his beloved StarTalk podcast.

In this illuminating audiobook, Tyson and coauthor James Trefil, a renowned physicist and science popularizer, take on the big questions that humanity has been posing for millennia—How did life begin? What is our place in the universe? Are we alone?—and provide answers based on the most current data, observations, and theories.

Populated with paradigm-shifting discoveries that help explain the building blocks of astrophysics, this relatable and entertaining book will engage and inspire listeners of all ages, bring sophisticated concepts within reach, and offer a window into the complexities of the cosmos.

I found the book fascinating. Tyson always finds a way to get your attention as well as using humor to get his point across.

I only wish NDT would have narrated it all. The narrator was excellent, but who doesn't love that deep rich voice of NDT. I hope there is some kind of space travel breakthrough in my lifetime so I can know more! To infinity and beyond!

This is an excellent description of the universe, with theories on how it functions, its past, and its future. I very much enjoyed the reading of the main text by Lauren Fortgang , whose strong, clear voice was easy for me to understand in the warehouse environment where I listened without being able to use any sort of headphone or ear device. However, Ms Fortgang’s splendid narration is frequently interrupted with side notes delivered by a low, gravelly voice, which I finally gave up trying to understand in my environment.
