About this title

Synopsis

Why is the universe�€s expansion speeding up? What is �€˜dark matter�€? Are there other universes besides our own? This book follows the author�€s travels in search of experiments taking place in the planet�€s most inhospitable locations to answer such cosmological questions. It explains not only the theory, aims and practicalities of each cutting-edge project but also the challenges facing researchers, whether they are working deep inside an abandoned iron mine or at the top of Hawaii�€s highest mountain.
