On Wednesday, September 17 at 7 p.m., join Brian Greene for a presentation
based on his latest book, Icarus
at the Edge of Time . Greene, (who is also the author of The
Elegant Universe), was inspired to write Icarus after
telling his toddler son a bedtime story that involved space travelers
moving near the speed of light. Within days, his son was telling tales
of dinosaurs and monsters outrunning a new concept: "the speed
of dark." It got Greene thinking about storytelling and its power;
how we listen with intensity to a gripping tale. Why not allow some
of science's greatest wonders be experienced through the force of
the narrative? In Icarus at the Edge of Time, Brian Greene
reveals scientific insights about black holes and more through a fable
about fathers, sons, curiosity, wisdom and the complexity of the universe.
