Earth: A Speck of Dust
How many planets have intelligent life?
How can we communicate with other civilizations in the universe?
Do UFOs exist, and why would they visit us?
Which planet will we colonize first?
Are we merely specks of dust living on a speck of dust? These are just some of the fascinating topics covered by Keith Wilson in Earth, a Speck of Dust. In a refreshingly light-hearted fashion the author asks, and attempts to answer, the things we have all wondered about when looking up at the night sky. An absorbing and entertaining presentation of facts and theories, illustrated by more than 120 of the author’s own drawings – an astronomy book with a difference! Non-fiction/Astronomy (B/W illust.)
