Summary: Bad astronomy
Review: This book is full of bad and inaccurate facts that will get someone off on the wrong foot. Black holes are gravitational wells and therefore don't suck, gravity pulls. How can something be sucked in a void? Space is not mostly empty space as it can be warped by gravity. Space is the fabric of space/time (E=MC2). Space does not go on forever. How can it if it's expanding and accelerating (inflationary cosmology). It can't expand into its self. Beyond space is nothing. No light, dark, tempurature, atoms, or even space. The Big Bang didn't explode, it happened everywhere at once since there was no universe before that from a sizeless singularity and created the space it expanded into. Space and time did not exist before the Big Bang as time can't exist without matter so there wasn't any before the Big Bang and it couldn't have "blasted matter" in all directions as there was as of yet no direction. Heat was so intense that only energy existed and so dense that light could not escape making the tiny universe opaque to light photons. There are three, not two theories on the future of the universe. An open, closed, or flat universe. The flat universe as predicted by Einstein's cosmological constant, or special relativity which wasn't mentioned in the book has been proven to be correct so the other two are null and void. And all spiral galaxies have a central black hole. I'm a cosmologist/astrophysicist.
