Description

Different cultures have created stories about the hows and whys of the universe, if things exist beyond the stars, and if the gods manipulate the heavenly bodies. But astronomers aren't interested in folktales—they desire truth.

True power comes from knowledge—the power to shape the growth of kingdoms by mere whispers, stay three steps ahead of adversaries, or even know which flora is best for creating untraceable poisons.
