Which space books do you enjoy reading?

  • It may vary from one person to another, but I used to be more familiar with fiction space books. It's about time I try a fresh point of view and go for more non-fictional books. Old or new, which books would you recommend to fellow space enthusiasts?

  • Science fiction was what got me into space and space travel in the first place, so I always start there when suggesting books to people. But, since you're looking for non-fiction, I suggest Neil deGrasse Tyson's book Death by Black Hole and Other Cosmic Quandaries. It's a book of essays, so it covers a variety of topics.

  • I am currently reading Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time and, although I haven't finished it yet, I highly recommend it. It talks about time, space, black holes and how our planet was created.

  • Juno, I've read that one too; he was a brilliant man. The 1991 film with the same name is worth a watch if you haven't already seen it. The film covers the life of Stephen Hawkings.


    Belinda, thanks for the book suggestion. I'll have to check that one out.

    I've heard of the book, but never read it. I didn't know there was a movie about it either. I will definitely check it out. He was a brilliant man, indeed.
