520    A fascinating and thought-provoking investigation into the
       nature of black holes-a blend of the spiritual, the 
       philosophical, and the scientific-from the premier German 
       astrophysicist who made history in 2018, capturing the 
       first one on film. A Light in the Darkness is the story of
       one of the greatest astrological achievements of all time:
       the first photographic evidence of black holes in April 
       2018, and its significance for humanity, told by the 
       scientist who accomplished it. A man of faith ordained in 
       the Protestant tradition, Heino Falcke wrestles with the 
       ways in which black holes force us to confront the 
       boundary where human life ends and the celestial begins. 
       He also ponders why black holes are difficult for most of 
       us to understand-comparing it to our inability to envisage
       our own inevitable death. Black holes develop in outer 
       space when a massive star dies, and its matter is 
       condensed. That extreme amount of mass contained in a 
       small space generates a gigantic amount of gravitational 
       force, allowing the black hole to suck up everything that 
       comes near, including light. These astronomical wonders 
       are the subject of our greatest scientific and 
       philosophical theorizing-the journey to a black hole would
       be the journey to the end of time itself. In this way, 
       Falcke regards them as the most exquisite representations 
       of fear, death . . . and, surprisingly, the divine. 
       Empirical and profound, A Light in the Darkness is the 
       first work to examine both the physical nature and 
       spiritual meaning of black holes, those astrophysical 
       mysteries Falcke, calls "the epitome of merciless 
       destruction."
