For most of human history, we have had a close relationship with the stars. Once they shaped our religious beliefs, power structures, scientific advances and even our biology. But over the last few centuries we have separated ourselves from the universe that surrounds us. And it comes at a cost. The Human Cosmos is a tour of this history: from the Hall of the Bulls in Lascaux to Tahitian sailors navigating by the stars; from medieval monks grappling with the nature of time to Einstein realising that space and time are the same. It shows we need to rediscover the universe we inhabit, its effect on our health, and its potential for inspiration and revelation.

Negli anni Sessanta, la rivalità tra due grandi potenze portò l'umanità nello spazio, aggiungendo una nuova dimensione alla vita sulla Terra. L'ultima frontiera era aperta, il sistema solare sembrava a portata di mano – prossima fermata: Marte. E invece nulla. La corsa allo spazio aveva decretato il vincitore e si rivelò per quella che era: una gara d'orgoglio patriottico. Tra il 1969 e il 1972 dodici uomini – nessuna donna – camminarono sulla Luna, poi più nessuno. Le agenzie spaziali, però, non sono state con le mani in mano tutto questo tempo. Sono diminuiti i soldi a disposizione e sono cambiati gli obiettivi, ma l'umanità ha continuato a esplorare il sistema solare, con sonde e robot, che costano meno degli esseri umani e permettono di vedere i corpi celesti più da vicino..
