This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

As you read this summary, you will discover that the universe is full of fascinating, but not very hospitable objects.

You will also discover :

• that you are made of stardust;
• that gravitation governs the shapes, movements and structure of the universe;
• that there is an invisible light captured by gigantic telescopes;
• that studying this light is essential to understanding the universe;
• that a large part of what composes the universe is unknown: it is dark matter and dark energy.

The cosmos is a captivating place and astrophysics is probably one of the most intriguing fields of science, even for non-scientists. It is at the very heart of humankind's conception of itself and its place in the universe. For a long time confined to stargazing and subordinated to the dogma of the Church, astronomy today reveals a cosmos totally opposed to past ideas. From a single, central and immobile planet around which the cosmos was organized, the Earth has become an insignificant detail, moving, lost in the immensity of the universe. Are you ready for a disconcerting but bewitching walk through the cosmos?
