Description
The book "Wrinkles in Time" is about astrophysicist George Smoot's journey to find the origins of the universe. Smoot and his team of researchers were able to prove that the universe was created billions of years ago. This discovery ushered in a new scientific age and won Smoot the Nobel Prize in Physics.
Astrophysicist George Smoot spent decades pursuing the origin of the cosmos, "the holy grail of science," a relentless hunt that led him from the rain forests of Brazil to the frozen wastes of Antarctica. In his search he struggled against time, the elements, and the forces of ignorance and bureaucratic insanity. Finally, after years of research, Smoot and his dedicated team of Berkeley researchers succeeded in proving the unprovable-uncovering, inarguably and for all time, the secrets of the creation of the universe.
Wrinkles in Time describes this startling discovery that would usher in a new scientific age-and win Smoot the Nobel Prize in Physics.
