Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson has attracted one of the world’s largest online followings with his fascinating, widely accessible insights into science and our universe. Now, Tyson invites us to go behind the scenes of his public fame by unveiling his candid correspondence with people across the globe who have sought him out in search of answers. In this hand-picked collection of 100 letters, Tyson draws upon cosmic perspectives to address a vast array of questions about science, faith, philosophy, life, and of course, Pluto.

The fan letters were wonderfully varied. I learned a few new things that might stick in my brain as permanent knowledge. 👏🏽
And, his answer to why we're here made so much more sense than my faith based understanding ever had. The soul and ghost questions and his answers to both were also perfectly practical.
I loved the sound design and choice to have a full cast of characters read the fan letters. As many fans pointed out, Neil has a very pleasing voice and a very impressive way of educating while not offending or losing his audience.
Overall reading experience: Bravo!
A must read for curious people👌🏽
