À propos de cet audio
Interstellar, from acclaimed filmmaker Christopher Nolan, takes us on a fantastic voyage far beyond our solar system. Yet in The Science of Interstellar, Kip Thorne, the physicist who assisted Nolan on the scientific aspects of Interstellar, shows us that the movie's jaw-dropping events and stunning, never-before-attempted visuals are grounded in real science. Thorne shares his experiences working as the science adviser on the film and then moves on to the science itself.
In chapters on wormholes, black holes, interstellar travel, and much more, Thorne's scientific insights-many of them triggered during the actual scripting and shooting of Interstellar - describe the physical laws that govern our universe and the truly astounding phenomena that those laws make possible.

Certains concept sont assez complexe et nécessiterons d'un bon lecteur passionnée d'aller chercher et en apprendre d'avantage.
Le film en soit est un bon film mais le livre le rendre encore plus intéressant et nous donne une bonne idée de sa construction d'un point de vue scientifique. #Audible1
Cela explique le comment
Un problème est survenu. Veuillez réessayer dans quelques minutes.
However, I was not aware that this audiobook had an accompanying .pdf companion that is referenced often, so trying to visualize concepts discussed in the book were difficult without the visual aids.
Insightful look into a great film

Also! And this is the fault of the audiobook, the companion pdf didn’t include all pictures or diagrams that the author refers to. He often refers to images from the movie but they are not in the accompanying pdf! When I found excerpts of the printed book they are in there! Since the printed book is quite visual I would have expected the accompanying pdf to also include the same images. I was quite disappointed with that.
The narrator was pretty good and did the best he possibly could, given this was a difficult book to follow easily.
On a side note: I found the author liked to toot his own horn quite a bit which is understandable since he did discover many of the scientific themes used in the movie. He also really likes to name-drop but I guess if Stephen Hawking was my best friend I’d do the same!
I finished the book and was left wanting more! Some of the more difficult things he could have repeated or reiterated to help highlight them better. But he also really got my mental juices flowing. Unfortunately I also had to resort to google often throughout listening as I didn’t fully understand his explanations of some concepts.
I would say to definitely give it a try!! Once you understand the science it’s fascinating :)
If you get passed the constant name-dropping and lack of images ....
