About the Book

The cosmic adventure continues!

Finny, a young fish, travels through space and time with his friend and mentor, supercomputer Mr. Guru. On the way, Guru educates Finny about the amazing wonders of the universe.

This time, they travel into an old star cluster—a globular cluster. Finny chats with the oldest stars of the universe and learns about their life cycles. The rotating light beams of a neutron star, resembling a lighthouse, attract Finny to explore, but its intense heat and gravitational pressure almost destroy the curious fish, who escapes in the nick of time, with Mr. Guru’s help. Finny is funneled down into an invisible black hole where he encounters a mysterious being, who tells how a glorious supergiant star like himself became a singularity at the end of his life, as his entire mass was crushed into a single point. Finny finds that escaping from a black hole isn’t easy—even as energy.

“Science begins in wonder and curiosity. Geeta Pati’s imaginative rendering of the strange world revealed by modern physics brings it to life for young people.”          — Frank Wilczek, PhD, Nobel Prize winner in physics.
