Visions of the Universe : The Latest Discoveries in Space Revealed - Hardcover
This unique and stunning collection of digital images from NASA, ESO and ESA captures the visual drama, beauty and challenging activity of the universe, including star-forming clouds of gas, the most detailed image ever obtained of the Sun, the violent collisions between galaxies billions of light-years away and new discoveries confirming the presence of super-massive black holes. Dr Raman Prinja explains the incredible breakthroughs these images have made about our understanding of the universe, in particular the fresh perspectives that scientists have gained on the structure and origin, as well as the projected future - and fate - of the universe.
