About a dozen years ago, astronomers detected a strong radio source in outer space that was linked to some strange celestial object. Further study unearthed a new, exotic astronomical menagerie--dwarf stars, quasars, black holes and white holes, pulsars, neutron stars, new supernovae--whose very description is enough to boggle the mind, and whose discovery has presented our scientists with some very baffling questions. Imagine, for instance, a situation in which the entire population of the earth could be fitted into a pill the size of an aspirin. Tthe incredibly high density of the "black holes" dictates that this is all the volume 3.6 billion people would occupy. How is this possible? Some pulsars apparently blink on and off some 30 times a second. How do they do that? The neutron stars have solid crusts, in spite of surface temperatures that may be on the order of 7 million degrees; on earth all matter becomes gas at a few thousand degrees. How can there be solids at temperatures 1,000 times higher? In Beyond the Known Universe, the internationally known astronomer Dr. Levitt tells the story of these new celestial oddballs, and relates how ingenious scientists around the world are attempting to solve the riddles they pose. It is a mind-stretching adventure that promises to give the layman enthusiast a much clearer understanding of what these unique objects are all about.
