The Very First Light: The True Inside Story of the Scientific Journey Back to the Dawn of the Universe.
New York :Basic Books, 1998. Hardcover. Dustjacket. 387 pp. Mailorder only - Alleen verzending mogelijk. Book condition : as new. In the early 1990s, a NASA-led team of scientists changed the way we view the universe. With the COBE (Cosmic Background Explorer) project, they showed that the microwave radiation that fills the universe must have come from the Big Bang, effectively proving the Big Bang theory beyond any doubt. It was one of the greatest scientific findings of our generation, perhaps of all time. In The Very First Light, John Mather, one of COBE's leaders, and science writer John Boslough tell the story of how it was achieved. A gripping tale of big money, bigger egos, tense politics, and cutting-edge engineering, The Very First Light offers a rare insider's account of the world of big science. ISBN 9780465015757.
