具體描述
A journey through the otherworldly science behind Christopher Nolan’s highly anticipated film, Interstellar, from executive producer and theoretical physicist Kip Thorne.
Interstellar, from acclaimed filmmaker Christopher Nolan, takes us on a fantastic voyage far beyond our solar system. Yet in The Science of Interstellar, Kip Thorne, the physicist who assisted Nolan on the scientific aspects of Interstellar, shows us that the movie’s jaw-dropping events and stunning, never-before-attempted visuals are grounded in real science. Thorne shares his experiences working as the science adviser on the film and then moves on to the science itself. In chapters on wormholes, black holes, interstellar travel, and much more, Thorne’s scientific insights—many of them triggered during the actual scripting and shooting of Interstellar—describe the physical laws that govern our universe and the truly astounding phenomena that those laws make possible.

評分##By physical laws we humans discover decipher master and use to control our own fate, dealing with mist catastrophe the universe may throw at us.
評分##近半年的地鐵讀物
評分##感到智商受瞭碾壓。評分這麼高，諸位想必都是看懂瞭的。最後鬥膽揣測一下，Kip Thorne寫這本書感覺像是在說，“看吧我在電影裏應用的科學理論和假設都是高大上並且準確的你們看不懂電影就來看書看不懂書那我也沒轍瞭反正我就是好萊塢最屌的物理學傢[攤手]”。
評分##物理殘居然讀完瞭，可歌可泣。
評分##拍個科幻電影容易麼。話說這本寫給general public看的書也讓我大開眼界，第一次聽說黑洞裏的infalling和outflying奇點。書後麵的further reading list是一個寶藏。
評分##作為科普書看看挺不錯的，看不懂也不糾結，大概能理解就好瞭
評分##買瞭，等貨。 --- 嗯嗯讀完很久瞭，忘記把想讀改成讀過瞭。
