"McTier's sharp wit and sharper intellect strike the perfect tone for this breezy take on the history of our galaxy. Truly the biggest tell-all story in the universe!"-- Paul M. Sutter, PhD, astrophysicists and author of Your Place in the Universe

Synopsis
It all began some thirteen billion years ago, when clouds of gas scattered through the universe's primordial plasma could not keep their metaphorical hands off each other. They succumbed to their gravitational attraction, and the Milky Way was born. Since then, the galaxy has watched as dark energy pushed away its friends, as humans mythologized its purpose, and as galactic archaeologists worked to determine its true age (rude). Along the way, the Milky Way has absorbed supermassive black holes, made enemies of a few galactic neighbors, and mourned countless stars. After all this time, this glorious celestial body finally feels ready for the revealing tell-all we've been waiting for. Its fascinating autobiography recounts the history and future of the universe in accessible but scientific detail, presenting a summary of human astronomical knowledge thus far that is unquestionably out of this world., In this approachable and fascinating biography of the galaxy, an astrophysicist and folklorist details everything humans have discovered--from the Milky Way's formation to its eventual death, and what else there is to learn about the universe we call home. After a few billion years of bearing witness to life on Earth, of watching one hundred billion humans go about their day-to-day lives, of feeling unbelievably lonely, and of hearing its own story told by others, The Milky Way would like a chance to speak for itself. All one hundred billion stars and fifty undecillion tons of gas of it.
