Death by Black Hole
Slipcase blocked in holographic foil
Printed book edges
The award-winning creative studio, La Boca, has brought colour and bold graphics to the cover and slipcase, as well as to the decorative part-titles, and the specially chosen NASA images, captioned by the author, are some of the finest and most beautiful examples of modern astro-photography. Nebulas, spiral galaxies, asteroids, supernovas, many taken by the Hubble and James Webb space telescopes – each one awe-inspiring and expertly reproduced.

They strive to create emotional connections through their work and value any part they can play in contributing to popular culture.

About the Author
Neil deGrasse Tyson is a great populariser and communicator of science, specifically astrophysics. His books and shows, especially the podcast StarTalk, have made him a household name in the US. Among his 15 books is the best-selling Astrophysics for People in a Hurry (2017). He is the head of the Hayden Planetarium in New York and is the recipient of 23 honorary doctorates and the NASA Distinguished Public Service Medal, the highest award given by NASA to a non-government citizen. His contributions to the public appreciation of the cosmos have been recognized by the International Astronomical Union in their official naming of asteroid '13123 Tyson'. And by zoologists, with the naming of Indirani Tysoni, a native species of leaping frog in India.
