  Today, we accept that we live on a planet circling the sun, that our sun is just one of billions of stars in the galaxy we call the Milky Way, and that our galaxy is but one of billions born out of the big bang. This book tells how scientists discovered that we lived in a galaxy, in fact, a universe full of galaxies.
