The story of the astronomer Edwin Hubble Edwin Hubble was a child fascinated by the stars and overcame many difficulties to become the astronomer he dreamed of being. By harnessing the knowledge of great mathematicians and observing the sky for endless hours, he grew up to prove something that changed our lives forever: that there are other galaxies beyond our own and that the universe is constantly expanding.
A unique book, with stunning illustrations, which "maps" the life of the famous astronomer along with the unreachable edges of the universe! The foreword of this wonderful book is signed by "our own" Dionysios Simopoulos. It is one of the last texts that the great Greek scientist managed to deliver shortly before his death last summer.
"The images from the Hubble Telescope have given us the clearest views I have had of the vast beauty of the Universe, confirming the fact that the discoveries we have made so far are nothing but simple indications of all the amazing things we are going to learn in the future about us and the world around us," notes Dionysios Simopoulos, opening a space in our imagination for the marvelous things that will follow the wonderful life of Edwin Hubble, "the boy with stars in his mind!".
