Beschreibung

Space is full of places you simply can not miss! From volcanoes 60,000 feet high, to warm saltwater oceans under the ice of a moon of Saturn, to giant black holes that that already swallowed millions of stars. Search for the origins of life -including yourself- in the debris of giant stars that exploded violently billions of years ago. In this larger universe, your view home will never be the same.
