Synopsis

Human beings always have many questions: about the universe, about the earth, about time and space, and about ourselves. I guarantee that you have thought about at least one of the following questions: Can you turn back time (when you make a mistake)? (When you watch a science fiction movie) Where are the aliens? (When you don't want to go to work/school) Can someone else take my place? (When you have to travel far away) Why not teleport? (When you doubt life) Are we living in a simulation? (When you're worried about the end of the world) Will an asteroid hit the Earth, and will we be able to immigrate to Mars? … There are always endless questions, but thanks to the efforts of scientists, we humans actually already know a lot! Including but not limited to the above popular cosmic questions, you can find the answers in this book. The kind of answers that list various possibilities, are full of imagination, are full of funny cartoons, and are answered by physics professors. You can also find some seemingly impossible possibilities and seemingly irrational rationalities in these questions and answers, and they are just the basic laws of the universe. If our universe were a product, then this book would be the "list of popular questions and answers" in the product manual, suitable for every human being who is experiencing the product.

Reader comments

2026.1.25.17.00 Science textbooks popularize some scientific astronomy knowledge, which is difficult for us ordinary people to understand. I only know that the passage of time, the universe is too far away, and science is too far away. Even if we know what we need to do to turn back time, how to live on other planets, the Big Bang and other knowledge, we are powerless. It is better to live happily without knowing. Good book, but I can't understand it.

The writing style of this book is very interesting. It uses comics and humor to answer many questions about the universe, making science easy to understand and fun. The character's personality is very distinct, just like the friends around me, asking all kinds of strange questions. Moreover, the answers in the book are full of imagination, allowing me to see the infinite possibilities of the universe. All in all, this is an eye-opening book for me and I recommend it to all my friends who are curious about the universe!
