I only wish NDT would have narrated it all. The narrator was excellent, but who doesn't love that deep rich voice of NDT. I hope there is some kind of space travel breakthrough in my lifetime so I can know more! To infinity and beyond!

This is an excellent description of the universe, with theories on how it functions, its past, and its future. I very much enjoyed the reading of the main text by Lauren Fortgang , whose strong, clear voice was easy for me to understand in the warehouse environment where I listened without being able to use any sort of headphone or ear device. However, Ms Fortgang’s splendid narration is frequently interrupted with side notes delivered by a low, gravelly voice, which I finally gave up trying to understand in my environment.
