Description
Summary:	Explores how the transfer of enormous amounts of energy in space including, solar, geothermal, kinetic, and magnetic energy, keeps the universe balanced, create cosmic events, and stellar displays. Highlights such sources as the Sun, solar flares, supernovas, black holes, cosmic rays, dark energy (which accounts for 75% of all mass and energy in the Universe), and from the Earth's core, geothermal energy; and asks could this energy possibly be transformed and provide energy sources of the future. Reviews the beginnings of all energy in the Universe; the Big bang.
