  • Overview

    Our own Sun—a source of awe, myth, and mystery for untold generations of sky-gazers—is just one of roughly two hundred billion trillion stars. Together, they’re a window into the profoundest questions in physics—overturning, again and again, how we understand light, matter, time, and existence itself. Florian Freistetter explains all this and more, in brief, easy-to-read profiles of the hundred most history-making stars, inviting readers to gaze into the past and future of the universe alongside a stellar cast of scientists— from Annie Jump Cannon, who revolutionized how we classify the stars, to Dorrit Hoffleit, who first counted them. Enjoy your journey through the cosmos . . .

    • GRB 080319B, the farthest we’ve seen into space with the naked eye
    • V1364 CYGNI, pivotal in the discovery of dark matter
    • 72 Tauri, definitive evidence for Einstein’s theory of relativity
    • Algol, called the Demon Star for its mysterious blinking—and many more!
