Sobre aquest llibre
Learn how to destroy the universe with the power of astrophysics in this fun and factual space book for kids.
"Could you crash the Moon into the Earth? If the Sun explodes, would we all get vaporised? What’s the weather like on Mercury?"
Discover the answers to these questions and many more at the Supervillain Academy: the magnificently morbid school for young villains in training. Facts about space are all well and good, but discovering that if you threw someone into a black hole, they would be spaghettified – stretched out long and thin before getting squashed smaller than an atom – is truly, fascinatingly gruesome.
A factual and full-of-fun astronomy book for young big thinkers and budding scientists.
