具体描述
A journey through the otherworldly science behind Christopher Nolan’s highly anticipated film, Interstellar, from executive producer and theoretical physicist Kip Thorne.
Interstellar, from acclaimed filmmaker Christopher Nolan, takes us on a fantastic voyage far beyond our solar system. Yet in The Science of Interstellar, Kip Thorne, the physicist who assisted Nolan on the scientific aspects of Interstellar, shows us that the movie’s jaw-dropping events and stunning, never-before-attempted visuals are grounded in real science. Thorne shares his experiences working as the science adviser on the film and then moves on to the science itself. In chapters on wormholes, black holes, interstellar travel, and much more, Thorne’s scientific insights—many of them triggered during the actual scripting and shooting of Interstellar—describe the physical laws that govern our universe and the truly astounding phenomena that those laws make possible.

##感到智商受了碾压。评分这么高，诸位想必都是看懂了的。最后斗胆揣测一下，Kip Thorne写这本书感觉像是在说，“看吧我在电影里应用的科学理论和假设都是高大上并且准确的你们看不懂电影就来看书看不懂书那我也没辙了反正我就是好莱坞最屌的物理学家[摊手]”。
评分##science is the new black||终于慢吞吞的读完了，很荣幸成为豆瓣上读过这本书的第66个人。这本书就像是一个引子，把一个未知的世界的索引展现。这也是S拿到我送的kindle后看的第一本，两个人一起看书的感觉真好
评分##还算有趣的follow-up reading.
评分I always think I hate Physics, which I did. But Kip Thorne changes everything for me. Astrophysics is interesting and amazing beyond my imagination. I am also fond of Kip's writing style. Plus,you will never find how fascinating the world is if you spend large amounts of your time shopping and gossiping.
