内容简介

The essential universe, from our most celebrated and beloved astrophysicist.
What is the nature of space and time? How do we fit within the universe? How does the universe fit within us? There’s no better guide through these mind-expanding questions than acclaimed astrophysicist and best-selling author Neil deGrasse Tyson.
But today, few of us have time to contemplate the cosmos. So Tyson brings the universe down to Earth succinctly and clearly, with sparkling wit, in tasty chapters consumable anytime and anywhere in your busy day.
While you wait for your morning coffee to brew, for the bus, the train, or a plane to arrive, Astrophysics for People in a Hurry will reveal just what you need to be fluent and ready for the next cosmic headlines: from the Big Bang to black holes, from quarks to quantum mechanics, and from the search for planets to the search for life in the universe.

虽然我本科专业是物理，但是看这个天体物理的科普书才深深的感受到“天体物理真难呀”。
月初听的，后面用来做了一点听写。我也不知道为嘛读了这么多其实很简单的科普，大概是每次都会发现一点新鲜玩意儿。比如说贵州的FAST是世界上最棒最大的radio telescope啦，如果有外星人打电话一定是中国人先收到(?)。(1)我一直知道quark来自于芬尼根守灵夜，但不知道一开始科学家以为quark只有3种，所以才用了那句“Three quarks for Muster Mark!” (2)…
