THE UNIVERSE IN YOUR HAND A Journey through Space, Time, and Beyond

Buckle your seatbelt! Narrator Ray Chase's excited voice propels listeners through the cosmos--from the very small to the very large and everything in between. Chase's voice sounds young and energetic, as if he's bursting with momentous information he's eager to reveal. The author, a student and collaborator of Stephen Hawking, knows his stuff and communicates it in a you-are-there style. A strength of this book is that it covers scientific knowledge right up to 2016, and a lot has been discovered in recent years. The last few chapters bring us to the brink of the yet undiscovered, the edges where dark matter and dark energy and the invisible space/time fabric of reality reside. This is a riveting listen.
