Since Galileo first pointed his telescope at the stars, astronomy has become a wellspring of creative development and an endless source of discoveries. Emily Levesque describes the world of a professional astronomer, extolling inventiveness and curiosity, and never ceases to marvel at the wonders of the Universe.
"I wrote this book to capture the stories of people working with telescopes. In recent decades in astronomy, perhaps not so much has been collected, but astronomers-observers have accumulated a wealth of experience during this time. The stories of astronomers are remarkable, but this is also a monument to a bygone era... The study of astronomy will continue, fueling curiosity and humanity's self-awareness." (Emily Levesque)
