In December, 1999, a multinational team journeys out to the stars, to the most awesome encounter in human history. Who -- or what -- is out there? In Cosmos, Carl Sagan explained the universe. In Contact, he predicts its future -- and our own.

Should have read this sooner

5 stelle

I have no idea why it took me so long to read this book. I really enjoyed the movie, and this book is a deeper, more thoughtful version of that movie. Not only that, but I loved every page of it.

Some parts are a bit preachy, but I happily ignored those parts because the rest is so gripping.
