About

Bringing his cosmic perspective to civilization on Earth, Neil deGrasse Tyson invokes the majesty of the universe to illuminate our most pressing problems, empowering people to use the tools of science to improve ourselves and our world.

Starry Messenger makes a passionate case for the twin engines of enlightenment—a cosmic perspective and the rationality of science—to navigate our ever more divided world. Whether visiting ComicCon, a Las Vegas casino, geopolitical hotspots, or the world's most powerful telescopes, Tyson takes on all challengers of scientific truths with his characteristic humor and astronomical expertise. From insights on resolving global conflict to reminders of how precious it is to be alive, Tyson reveals, with warmth and eloquence, an array of brilliant and beautiful perspectives that apply to us all, informed and enlightened by knowledge of our place in the universe.
