Alpha and Omega: The Search for the Beginning and End of the Universe Tapa blanda - 2004
de Charles Seife
From the award-winning author of "Zero" come "dispatches from science's front lines . . . spiced with fresh discoveries and disputes" ("Los Angeles Times").
Resumen
Alpha and Omega is a dispatch from the front lines of the cosmological revolution that is being waged at observatories and laboratories around the world-in Europe, in America, and even in Antarctica--where scientists are actually peering into both the cradle of the universe and its grave. Scientists--including galaxy hunters and microwave eavesdroppers, gravity theorists and atom smashers, all of whom are on the trail of dark matter, dark energy, and the growing inhabitants of the particle zoo-now know how the universe will end and are on the brink of understanding its beginning. Their findings will be among the greatest triumphs of science, even towering above the deciphering of the human genome.
This is the book you need to help understand the frequent front-page headlines heralding dramatic cosmological discoveries. It makes cutting-edge science both crystal clear and wonderfully exciting.

Perhaps it happened on a midwinter's night thirty thousand years ago.
