Astronomers determined in 1998 that the universe is flying apart at an ever faster rate. This acceleration has smashed the popular idea of a perfectly balanced beautiful universe and started what Scientific American has proclaimed as a new revolution in cosmology. The author of this work introduces new findings and explores their astonishing implications. Was Einstein's greatest blunder - his idea of a cosmological constant - a brilliant insight after all? Is there a mysterious kind of energy that fills empty space? Must we abandon the long-cherished view of a beautiful universe?

Seller's Description:
Very Good in Very Good jacket. Size: 6x0x9; In one of the most surprising and important findings in cosmology in the century, astronomers recently discovered that the universe may be expanding at an ever-increasing rate. This discovery of an "accelerating universe" stunned many cosmologists because it directly contradicts their most deeply held beliefs about the evolution and fate of the universe. The discovery has therefore ignited a new revolution in cosmology in which scientists are wrestling anew with the most fundamental questions and revisiting ideas that were dismissed long ago. As leading astrophysicist Mario Livio explains in this elegantly written and timely book, most cosmologists have long believed that the universe will expand at a gradually decreasing rate until the expansion effectively stops.
