Have you ever wondered that, if not for space exploration, our lives would be very different? It seems to us that we are far from space, but Neil Degrass Tyson, with his inherent wit, shows that even seemingly insignificant discoveries in the space industry caused a breakthrough in other areas of science, allowed us to make a technological leap and take our daily life to a new level. And what awaits us tomorrow? What research will shape our lives? Maybe what seems fantastic today is already real, but hidden from us in space laboratories. Life examples, topical issues, a light syllable, witty statements and an excellent sense of humor of the author make the book interesting and understandable even to those who know nothing about space.
