Product Description
Everyone has questions about our universe. These questions range from the creation of the universe to the effect of the moon on human behavior. But few people want long answers. Short, simple explanations with some humor are so much better. There aren’t many books available to the reader with a simple interest in the universe of everyday life. This book will fill this gap. It’s a light, informal, introductory but scientifically accurate approach to aspects of astronomy that are not always found in books on the subject. Look at the title! Can you resist not wanting to know the answer? Though an unusual approach, all the traditional subjects are still included: beginner’s star charts of the night sky, telescopes, eclipses, archaeoastronomy, astrology, moon myths, Stonehenge, extraterrestrial life, the Big Bang, and the end of the universe. Readers of any age can start anywhere in the book and move in any direction.
