The Gobsmacking Galaxy

the long version

**First** there was the Big Bang. **Then** our galaxy was born. **Now** we're all hurtling through space at the speed of light, along with billions and billions of other planets, stars, satellites, meteors, comets, asteroids, meteorites and goodness only knows what else. This ***gobsmacking*** guide gives you ***mind-boggling*** information about our galaxy . . . and beyond. ***Jump up and down with excitement*** as you're whisked away on a grand tour of the solar system, where you'll go skiing on Mars and meet the sad creature from Pluto. ***Gasp*** at some incredible facts about red giants, white dwarves and supernovas. Plus . . . find out what happens when a bloke called Sid gets too close to a black hole. **If you want to be in the know, get The Knowledge!**
