'So staggering you go "whoa!" every few seconds' Guardian 'Really
impressive' Eamonn Holmes, ITV This Morning A companion book to the
critically acclaimed BBC series. The bestselling authors of Wonders
of the Universe are back with another blockbuster, a groundbreaking
exploration of our Solar System as it has never been seen before.
Mercury, a lifeless victim of the Sun's expanding power. Venus,
once thought to be lush and fertile, now known to be trapped within
a toxic and boiling atmosphere. Mars, the red planet, doomed by the
loss of its atmosphere. Jupiter, twice the size of all the other
planets combined, but insubstantial. Saturn, a stunning celestial
beauty, the jewel of our Solar System. Uranus, the sideways planet
and the first ice giant. Neptune, dark, cold and whipped by
supersonic winds. Pluto, the dwarf planet, a frozen rock. Andrew
Cohen and Professor Brian Cox take readers on a voyage of
discovery, from the fiery heart of our Solar System, to its
mysterious outer reaches. They touch on the latest discoveries that
have expanded our knowledge of the planets, their moons and how
they come to be.
