Publisher's Synopsis

Why do stars twinkle? What's the best way to start spotting constellations and comets? Is there life beyond Earth? What's the chance of a catastrophic collision with a killer asteroid?

He's covered the big space questions for adults, now Australia's very own Astronomer-at-Large, Fred Watson, embarks on a grand tour of the Universe especially for children. From stargazing to telescopes, space travel to black holes, killer comets to aliens, Fred covers every question kids might ask about space - and then some.

With incredible illustrations by Fred himself, and a mix of mind-boggling facts, Spacewarp is a fascinating book that kids will love - and parents and friends will undoubtedly learn a thing or two as well!
