BLACK SWAN
A THRILLING INVESTIGATION INTO THE SCIENCE OF THE SUN
Without the Warmth of the Sun, there would be no life on Earth. But what keeps the Sun hot? For thousands of years, because of its blinding light, the Sun kept its secrets. Having no way to probe its interior, astronomers could study only its fiery surface. It would take Charles Darwin's theory of evolution, which hugely extended the timescale of life, to convince them that the Sun had been around for more than just a few thousand years.
We now know from geological evidence that the Earth's principal life force is billions, not thousands of years old, and scientists are just beginning to find answers to the many other questions that have always surrounded the Sun since it was an object of worship for primitive man.

BLACK SWAN
A THRILLING INVESTIGATION INTO THE SCIENCE OF THE SUN
Without the Warmth of the Sun, there would be no life on Earth. But what keeps the Sun hot? For thousands of years, because of its blinding light, the Sun kept its secrets. Having no way to probe its interior, astronomers could study only its fiery surface. It would take Charles Darwin's theory of evolution, which hugely extended the timescale of life, to convince them that the Sun had been around for more than just a few thousand years.
We now know from geological evidence that the Earth's principal life force is billions, not thousands of years old, and scientists are just beginning to find answers to the many other questions that have always surrounded the Sun since it was an object of worship for primitive man. Does it 'breathe'? Can it make sound? How hot is its centre? Why has the Sun continued to burn for so long? And for how much longer can we expect to benefit from its life-giving rays?
In this exciting and enthralling study, John Gribbin, the award-winning author of IN SEARCH OF SCHRODINGER'S CAT and HOTHOUSE EARTH, unfolds the 'answers' to all these questions, unravelling the mystery at the heart of the latest astronomical research and revealing the truth behind the secret life of the Sun.
