Universe. Capacious answers to incomprehensible questions. Hawking S., Leonov A.A., May B.

The Starmus science festival was first held in 2011, and since then the participation of leading scientists, celebrities in the field of astronautics and music, which are united by a passion for popularizing knowledge about Earth and Cosmos, became a tradition. Учредитель фестиваля и астрофизик Гарик Израэлян создал экспертный совет, в который вошли такие замечательные личности, как астрофизик и рок-музыкант Брайан Мэй, эволюционный биолог Ричард Докинз, первооткрыватель микроволнового излучения Роберт Вильсон, теоретический физик Стивен Хокинг, космонавт Алексей Леонов, химик и лауреат Нобелевской Harold Kroto and others. This book contains lectures of scientists who have been working for many years to recreate the past of the universe and present its structure. They will introduce the most daring theories, some of which have been checked and proven, and some are still waiting for an experimental verification, inaccessible at the current stage of technology development.

will speak out on these pages and those who managed to draw on the basis of modern data The future of the Universe, our planet and our own.
