À propos de cet audio

Imagine a region in space where the force of gravity is so strong that nothing - not even light - can escape. A region with physical conditions so extreme that they have not yet been reproduced in any terrestrial laboratory. A region so dense that an object as tiny as a walnut would have the same mass as our entire planet. This phenomenon is a black hole: one of the most exotic, mind-boggling, and profound subjects in astrophysics. Nearly everyone has heard of black holes, but few people outside of complex scientific fields understand their true nature and their implications for our universe.

No movie, novel, or other fictional treatment of black holes matches Professor Filippenko’s absorbing presentation of the actual science behind these amazing objects. Black holes are at the heart of some of the most intriguing phenomena in the universe. Not only that, they are ideal gateways to fundamental and cutting-edge concepts in astronomy.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Black holes are a Fascinating topic and this book offers a great deal of information....However, it frequently refers to visual aids that are included in the physical text or even the E-reader version. But they are not present with this audiobook.
You will get lost or bored... or both, when the narrator discusses images we can’t see in this audiobook.
I’m giving the book 4 stars because there’s a lot of visual information and lessons that us as audio listeners miss out on.

Great lessons BUT....

If you don't know much or anything about black holes, this is an excellent introduction. He doesn't go into deeper, more complicated aspects, but there are other books for that. Also, partly because of that, he sticks to the facts. Whereas some of the deeper books describe some slightly differing theories.

Great introductory to black holes
