PDF-(BOOS)-Einstein\'s Shadow: The Inside Story of Astronomers\' Decades-Long Quest to Take

Einsteins Shadow follows a team of elite scientists on their historic mission to take the first picture of a black hole putting Einsteins theory of relativity to its ultimate test and helping to answer our deepest questions about space time the origins of the universe and the nature of realityPhotographing a black hole sounds impossible a contradiction in terms But Shep Doeleman and a global coalition of scientists are on the cusp of doing just thatWith exclusive access to the team journalist Seth Fletcher spent five years following Shep and an extraordinary cast of characters as they assembled the Event Horizon Telescope a virtual radio observatory the size of the Earth He witnessed their struggles setbacks and breakthroughs and along the way he explored the latest thinking on the most profound questions about black holes Do they represent a limit to our ability to understand reality Or will they reveal the clues that lead to the longsought Theory of EverythingFletcher transforms astrophysics into something exciting accessible and immediate taking us on an incredible adventure to better understand the complexity of our galaxy the boundaries of human perception and knowledge and how the messy human endeavor of science really worksWeaving a compelling narrative account of human ingenuity with excursions into cuttingedge science Einsteins Shadow is a tale of great minds on a mission to change the way we understand our universeand our place in it.
