"The universe's origin, evolution, and fate have long fascinated humanity, but until recently these subjects resided in astronomy's never-never land. The last ten years, however, have witnessed a stunning turnabout: an avalanche of new cosmological discoveries that illuminate the greatest questions of all. The Universe at Midnight is a platform from which to observe these new deep-space landmarks."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Details
First Sentence
"IT IS just before midnight, and stars spangle the sky: newborn stars emerging from magenta gas clouds, middle-aged suns dutifully towing planets through space, elderly red giants about to puff their atmospheres into the void."
