An engrossing tale of two decades of adventure in exotic and dangerous climes, where Smoot and his colleagues used radiotelescopes in search of the biggest and oldest objects anywhere--the seeds that spawned our universe following the Big Bang.
Photos and illustrations.
Astrophysicist George Smoot spent decades pursuing the origin of the cosmos, the holy grail of science, a relentless hunt that led him from the rain forests of Brazil to the frozen wastes of Antarctica.
In his search he struggled against time, the elements, and the forces of ignorance and bureaucratic insanity.
Finally, after years of research, Smoot and his dedicated team of Berkeley researchers succeeded in proving the unprovable--uncovering, inarguably and for all time, the secrets of the creation of the universe.
Wrinkles in Time describes this startling discovery that would usher in a new scientific age--and win Smoot the Nobel Prize in Physics.
