Title: The New Space Race: China vs. the United States
Author: Erik Seedhouse
Pub. Date: Feb 2010

Title: Impact
Author: Douglas Preston
Pub. Date: Jan 2010

 

Title: The Mysterious Universe
Author: Ellen Jackson
Pub. Date: May 2008

The "race" with China for the dominance of space is more subtle than the old US-Soviet race.

 

Not a disaster novel but a clever story focused on a mysterious meteorite impact.

 

The best way to learn about supernovae, dark energy and black holes.
