America’s favourite astrophysicist has written the most entertaining and universally appealing book of his stellar career: a practical guide for dealing with alien visitors, an exploration of how it might happen, and a cultural history of our fascination with extra-terrestrials. ‘Ever since childhood,’ writes Neil deGrasse Tyson, ‘I’ve wanted to be abducted by aliens.’ This work is the culmination of a lifetime of fascination, speculation, and the amassing of scientific data about the possibility of aliens visiting Earth. Drawing on a wealth of depictions from history, literature, pop culture, and film, Tyson applies the universal laws of physics to make the case for what aliens might look like, act like, how they might travel through the universe to reach us, and what they might think of us upon arrival.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
