"If the Sun explodes, would we all get vaporized?"
"What's the weather like on Mercury?" Discover the answers to these questions and many more at the Supervillain Academy: the magnificently morbid school for young bad guys-in-training. Facts about space are all well and good but discovering that if you threw someone into a black hole, they would be spaghettified - stretched out long and thin before getting squashed smaller than an atom - is truly, fascinatingly gruesome. At the Supervillain Academy, readers will learn about the solar system, galaxies, the universe, and, most importantly, the answer to the question "Which planet is entirely populated by robots?". Perfect for fans of Kay's Marvelous Medicine and the Horrible Histories series, Astrophysics for Supervillains is the first book of the Supervillain Academy series that will have curious kids keen to get to school on time!
