On the cover: Theories and beliefs about the cosmos have been nearly as vast as the
universe itself, covering everything from the birth of a single star to the discovery of
objects such as the Galaxy Triplet ARP 274 (pictured).
From Introduction:
Early theories of the universe
depicted Earth as a pillar at the center of
everything, around which the Sun, Moon,
and planets circled. The Greeks were
experts at geography—they calculated
the radius of Earth by using the Sun—
and mathematics, but they used reason
to avoid coming to some obvious conclusions.
By the time of Aristotle
(384–322 BCE), hundreds of years later,
they believed Earth was in the shape of
a ball, but still thought that the Sun,
stars, and planets passed around Earth.
Aristotle believed that there could only
be a fi nite number of stars, because they
all passed around Earth every 24 hours.
...
Scientists now believe that about a quarter
of the total energy density of the
universe is composed of dark matter.
...
The totality of the universe is perhaps
unknowable. But the theories, beliefs, and
laws examined in this book—which represent
the life’s work of many incredible
individuals—offer the best understanding
humankind has been able to achieve thus
far. It is awe-inspiring to ponder what
advances the dreamers and visionaries of
the 21st century will bring.
