<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Prior to the 1920s it was generally thought, with a few exceptions, that our galaxy, the Milky Way, was the entire universe. Based on the work of Henrietta Leavitt with Cepheid variables, astronomer Edwin Hubble was able to determine that others had to lie outside our own. This books looks at 60 of those that possess some unusual qualities that make them of particular interest, from supermassive black holes and colliding galaxies to powerful radio sources.
