From the iconoclastic Harvard astronomer and New York Times best-selling author of Extraterrestrial, an urgent explanation of why becoming an interstellar species is imperative for humanity´s survival - and a game plan for how we can settle among the stars.
´The ´Enfant terrible´ of astrophysics . . . Loeb has a joy in conjecture and an omnivorous spirit of inquiry that are more reminiscent of 20th-century thinkers such as Freeman Dyson or Carl Sagan than most of his peers´ The Times
Could we build space craft that could travel to distant stars? Could we augment human biology for spaceflight? Could the search for extraterrestrials be brought into the mainstream of scientific research?
Avi Loeb tells us that in each case, the real question is not could we, but will we choose to? With an approach that is firmly grounded in cutting-edge science, he explores the potential for non-rocket space launch, deep space probes, and the technological preservation of human civilisation. He examines the evidence for UFOs and UAPs, and argues that the search for further evidence, using existing scientific technologies, is long overdue.
Urgent and important, Noah´s Spaceship is a mission statement and a blueprint for the future of humanity. Loeb explains why becoming interstellar is imperative for our civilization to survive - and how we can accomplish it.
´One of the more imaginative and articulate scientists around´ New York Times
