Isaac Asimov is a master storyteller, one of the world’s greatest writers of science fiction. He is also a noted expert on the history of scientific development, with a gift for explaining the wonders of science to non-experts, both young and old. These stories are science-facts, but just as readable as science fiction. Black Holes in space – what are they? How did they come to be found? There is something almost frightening about the possibility of Black Holes. Do they really exist? Isaac Asimov explains step by step how astronomers have unraveled the mysteries of the stars using powerful telescopes. Find out about white dwarfs, pulsars, red giants and black holes.
