This is a book of curiosity and wonder. It's about some of the weirdest, wildest and most wonderful ideas in space science from astrophysicist and Wiradjuri woman, Dr Kirsten Banks.

Discover planets that are darker than charcoal, mysteries that make us go "Wow!", objects that wander into our solar system from the depths of interstellar space, the dark emu constellation, moon missions across the generations - from Apollo to Artemis, five places to keep off your intergalactic holiday wish list, the time the sun burped and took out the telegraphs, First Nation names for the moon, Mercury's salty secret ...and so much more.

A compelling journey through our spectacular universe with a renowned science communicator and a fresh dynamic voice who makes the cosmos exciting, accessible and fun for everyone.

'I hope this book reminds you that curiosity is powerful. You don't need to be a scientist to ask big questions about the Universe. You just need the courage to wonder.'
Dr Kirsten Banks
