The Science of Interstellar

In 'The Science of Interstellar', Kip Thorne delves into the scientific foundations of the film 'Interstellar', directed by Christopher Nolan.

Thorne, who served as the film's science advisor and executive producer, discusses the real science that underpins the movie's depiction of wormholes, black holes, interstellar travel, and other cosmic phenomena.

The book distinguishes between known science, educated guesses, and speculations, using visual icons to guide readers.

It also explores the physical laws governing the universe and the challenges of depicting complex scientific concepts in a film.

Thorne's work on the film and the book highlights the intersection of science and science fiction, making the book a valuable resource for both scientists and general audiences interested in space science.
