How big is space, where does it end, and more thought-provoking questions. The questions in this book were curated by the staff at London' s Royal Observatory, to address all the most common - and a few uncommon - things that children want to know about the universe and about outer space. It covers a mixture of basic questions about planets, moons, human exploration and the origins of the universe, as well as tackling really BIG questions such as ' How do Black Holes work' , ' Is it worth going to space? ' and ' What' s going to happen at the end of time? ' Join two curious children and a robot programmed with all the answers as they guide readers through some of the most mind-boggling facts, and a refreshingly honest take on what things we simply don' t know, and how to approach questions that don' t have simple, straight answers.

Whilst at Usborne Alice has worked on books on all kinds of science topics, from space to energy to the periodic table.
