Die Autorin erzählt unterhaltsam, wie sie mit der Suche nach fremdem Leben eine erfolgreiche Astrophysikerin wurde. Ihr Buch hätte aber von mehr Sorgfalt profitiert. Eine Rezension

Die Astrophysikerin Lisa Kaltenegger beschreibt ihren Werdegang und berichtet von ihrer Forschung. Ein unterhaltsames Buch – mit Ungenauigkeiten.
