Experimental physicist at CERN and acclaimed science presenter Harry Cliff offers an eyeopening account of the inexplicable phenomena that science has only recently glimpsed, and that could transform our understanding of the fundamental nature of reality.Something strange is going on in the cosmos. Scientists are uncovering a catalogue of weird phenomena that simply cant be explained by our longestablished theories of the universe. Particles with unbelievable energies are bursting from beneath the Antarctic ice. Unknown forces seem to be tugging on the basic building blocks of matter. Stars are flying away from us far faster than anyone can explain.After decades of fruitless searching, could we finally be catching glimpses of a profound new view of our physical world? Or are we being fooled by cruel tricks of the data?In Space Oddities, Harry Cliff, a physicist who does cuttingedge work on the Large Hadron Collider, provides a riveting look at the universes most confounding puzzles. In a journey that spans continents, from telescopes perched high above the Atacama Desert to the subterranean caverns of stateoftheart particle colliders to balloons hovering over the frozen icesheets of the South Pole, he meets the men and women hunting for answerswho have staked their careers and reputations on the uncertain promise of new physics.The result is a mindexpanding, ofthemoment look at the fields of physics and cosmology as they transform before us. With wonder, clarity, and a dose of humor, Cliff investigates the question: Are these anomalies accidents of nature, or could they be pointing us toward vast, hidden worlds?
