Citizen of the Galaxy, by Robert Heinlein.
When I was fourteen, I found this book in the library and it completely changed the way I viewed the universe. I already had strong suspicions that the universe was more than 6,000 years old. I was reading everything I could get my hands on about astronomy. Suddenly, here was a book that suggested there might be populated words far beyond my solar system. I decided to thoroughly explore this genre called science fiction.
