Sinossi

Five complete Night Lessons — at the price of three individual books.

Sometimes one story isn't enough. This volume is for those nights.

Night Lessons — Volume 1 brings together five of the most beloved bedtime reads from the Night Lessons series — each complete, each self-contained, each its own world.

A Journey Through Our Solar System
From the Sun to Pluto, in ten chapters through the eight planets and beyond. What makes each of these worlds unique? What have we discovered there? And what do we still not know?

Hypatia of Alexandria
The life of a woman who, in the fourth century, stood among the greatest minds of her age as a mathematician, astronomer, and philosopher — and who paid the highest price for it. A story of reason and fanaticism that still resonates today.

From the Big Bang to Today
In twelve chapters, we follow the universe from its very first moment to the present. From the fraction of a second after the Big Bang to the world you live in now. Every atom in your body was once part of a star.

The Space Station Mir
For fifteen years, Mir was a human outpost in space — built in the Cold War, surviving crisis after crisis, beloved by those who lived there. A story of engineering, endurance, and an unbreakable will to carry on.

The Moon — Our Mysterious Companion
So familiar we barely see it anymore. But the Moon is far more than a light in the night: it helped make life possible, stabilizes our axis, witnesses Earth's history. And it is slowly drifting away.

Five worlds. Five stories. One night.
