Then this summary and analysis companion book based on Astrophysics for Busy People by Neil deGrasse Tyson is for you! In Astrophysics for People in a Hurry by Neil deGrasse Tyson takes the reader on a voyage from the beginning of our universe and the big bang to our modern world and the need to place our existence within a wider cosmological perspective. Starting from the big bang, we learn how the expansion and cooling of our universe created the conditions for light to travel across the universe. This light, traveling over billions of years allows astrophysicists to see back in time and reconstruct the events since the creation of our universe. In this exploration of our cosmos, Tyson introduces us to Newton's law of gravity and Einstein's theory of general relativity. While these laws of physics are universal throughout the cosmos and help us understand the movement of the planets and stars, they also open us up to the deeper mysteries of our universe, such as dark matter and dark energy. Although we may perceive our universe as vast and empty, Tyson explores the space between galaxies and planets in our own solar system, suggesting that what we find in between, is just as interesting to study as the planets and the stars.
