Just finished reading the thought-provoking work: The Universe in Verse: 15 Portals to Wonder Through Science & Poetry, by Maria Popova, with illustrations by Ofra Amit.
If you tend to ponder questions about life, wonder in awe at the natural world, and harbor curiosity about the Universe, this book is for you. I really enjoyed engaging with it, and having a lot of "oh, wow" moments.
Make no mistake; this book is a prompt, an exercise in broadening our understanding, a nudge towards self-examination, and a reorienting of our relationship to dynamic, transformational change.

I used to loosely follow The Marginalian, didn't realize she's on here. Thanks for posting.
Edit: Oops, doesn't seem like she's active on that account.
