Editorial Reviews

Per primera vegada, un catedràtic d'astronomia afirma que ha trobat l'evidència que demostra que hi ha vida extraterrestre. El llibre que canviarà per sempre la història de la ciència.

Per primera vegada, un catedràtic d'Astronomia afirma haver trobat l'evidència de vida extraterrestre.

L'octubre del 2017 científics ubicats a l'observatori de Haleakala, a Hawaii, van detectar un objecte interesteŀlar en moviment dins del sistema solar i prou a prop de la Terra. Primer el van catalogar com a cometa i finalment com a asteroide, tot i que es comportava de manera molt diferent de qualsevol altre asteroide o cometa del nostre sistema solar. De fet, com més l'observaven els científics, més estrany els semblava.

Quan Avi Loeb, catedràtic d'Astronomia de Harvard, va suggerir que aquell objecte, que havien batejat com a 'Oumuamua, era la primera evidència de vida i tecnologia extraterrestres a l'espai, es va desfermar el debat científic més rellevant de les últimes dècades.

En aquest llibre, Loeb presenta per primera vegada la seva teoria al gran públic i descriu les profundes implicacions que té per a la ciència, la religió i el futur de la nostra espècie i el nostre planeta. Un viatge fascinant per l'univers des dels orígens dels temps, de l'espai i de la vida, que ens convida a desafiar els límits de la nostra imaginació i a esperar l'inesperat.
