Nobelist Giacconi’s book of this title is maximally original and deep.
His long-standing observations of ultra-weak X-ray point sources with but a few photons per hour that are equi-distributed across the sky do represent an empirical proof that the cosmos is infinite and non-expanding and infinitely old (metabolizing).
This in confirmation of St. Augustine and before him Heraclitus: “Metabolizing it rests” (Metabállon anapaúetai).
