Description

Have you ever wondered how we got here? How it all began - and all of the steps that got us from that point to now? You’ve probably read some science books or seen shows like Cosmos, and so you know the basic story. But have you ever wondered about what came before the beginning? About what lies outside of the Universe? Whether there is life elsewhere, or even advanced extraterrestrial civilizations? And have you ever longed for an intuitive understanding of the immensity of the time and space that is our Cosmos?
        While there have been many books written and shows produced about the history of the Universe, there has never been a book like this. We tell this epic 13.8-billion-year tale 100 million years at a time, each time-step featured on a two-page spread, making about 300 pages in total. Presenting the story of the Cosmos in a linear, concrete form like this will help give you an intuitive understanding of the vastness of space and time, making cosmological scales comprehensible to everyone. The experience of the Encyclopaedia Cosmologica will be like holding the Cosmos in your hands, and to flip through its pages like travelling billions of years through space and time in mere seconds.
