My 10yo daughter adores this book and the ease of learning about the building blocks of our universe.

My 9 y.o. loves this book. We’ve previously discussed a lot of the concepts, but this seems to answer questions I hadn’t thought of, but my son wanted to know. Easy to understand and great for adults as well – if you just want a simple explanation. If you’re after a more in-depth understanding (not the aim of this book, but if it sparks an interest in you and you want to follow up ), then I suggest Simon Singh’s The Big Bang.

The best book so far 👌 🔥
It’s too good for who want to become an astronaut, or learn more of cosmology…

Its like science fiction
Awesome book. If someone doesn’t have prior qualifications in physics, then also he/she will be interested.Space Physics is the best branch of Physics.
