About the Book

Have you ever wondered about atoms, wormholes, and antimatter? Our universe is governed by the laws of science, but nature can still act in unexpected ways. Quantum physics has helped us solve some BIG cosmic mysteries and there are still so many secrets waiting to be uncovered. Meet the invisible forces that guide everything from the smallest particles to the shape of the cosmos. Blow your mind with theories of space and time. Travel through the galaxies to discover black holes, gravitational waves, strange stars and so much more with Professor Lisa Harvey-Smith and her trusted guinea pig guide, Biscuit.
