Editor’s Note

1. Mandy Kirkby, Editor

Every night, a cosmic drama of epic proportions plays out above our heads, and no one can convey how thrilling and incredible this is better than Professor Brian Cox and Andrew Cohen. In this companion to The Planets, they take us beyond our solar system to a vast and ever-changing world, from the first stars, the engines of creation, to the dramatic story of the Milky Way and the billions of alien worlds that exist within our own galaxy. We've drawn on NASA photography from the latest and most important telescopes and exploration projects. Selected by Professor David Rothery, they depict starscapes of immense beauty and Professor Rothery's exclusive introduction explains how these mind-bending images of objects and landscapes millions of miles away are taken. A special two-colour design and spectacular binding, endpapers and foldout make this a very special edition.​
