| Publisher Description: A tour of 210 places of interest in the Observable Universe, describing each landscape with curious facts that are a must-know when planning our first travels through the Cosmic Jungle. Featuring the most bizarre galaxies, stars, planets, and other weirdos of all colors and shapes. The information contained is updated as of September 2020. The infographic and artistic work on the cover depicts the entire observable universe crammed into one field of view. It was assembled by Pablo Carlos Budassi by combining logarithmic maps of the universe from Princeton University and images from NASA. In 2016 this work went viral among astronomy fans and from there, it was featured in numerous publications and science museums including NASA apod, Dumont World Atlas, Sciences et Avenir, MTV, Discover Magazine, Philosophy Now, Forbes, WNDR Museum Chicago, WeCurious Museum in Bristol. Using this graphic as a map and the accumulated knowledge of 400 years of modern astronomy, we will spend a couple of minutes in each known world and if we come out alive, we will have the most up-to-date knowledge about the celestial wildlife and maybe, in the next trip, we can be the tour guides ourselves.This listing is for the larger (Photographic Book) version of the Universe Guidebook.
