About this book

Black holes sit at the center of Becky Smethurst's explanation of stars, gravity and galaxies. Beginning with Earth's movement through the Milky Way, this popular science account introduces the physical questions raised by objects from which light cannot escape. Its scope includes stellar collapse, supermassive black holes and the limits of what observations can establish.
