Isaac Asimov First published 1979

About this book

Ever since the concept of other worlds was put forward in the fifth century BC, scientists have struggled to answer that eternal question: Are we alone? Asimov here covers many fascinating aspects in his analysis of the universe - interstellar flight, the origin of life, messages to outer space, space exploration, the solar system - and gradually reaches his conclusion that are as convincing as they are fantastic.
