The ISBN number is: 1559406798


The UPC number is: 7 15515 00704 7


This is an unopened package. There is no ©-line or manufactured date, but public information suggests it was produced in 1995. I may have received this for review when I was producing and writing about consumer videos in the late 1990s or early 2000s.

Invisible Universe

Dr. Fiorella Terenzi


A fiery supernova explodes. A gigantic nebula spreads its beauty across the night sky. Stars and planets vibrate with frequencies beyond human sight. Spectral music glides from the depths of space.


Dr. Fiorella Terenzi brings it all to you in this entertaining and richly informative study of the universe beyond human sight. Dodging Centaurus A, reclining on the Andromeda Galaxy, exploding into the Veil Nebula, Dr. Terenzi looks beyond the range of human vision to show you the evolution of stars, black holes, and even glimpses of the origin of the universe itself. This inspired blend of science and art will transform the night sky for viewers of all ages.
