The Sky at Night: How to Read the Solar System

0/5 ( ratings)

From the front-inside dustwrapper:

“We've all learned the basics of our Solar System at school – but how much can you remember? In “How To Read The Solar System”, co-presenters of The Sky at Night Chris North and Paul Abel take a fascinating tour of the stars and planets to reveal their wonders, and show how anyone can view and interpret them.

It’s an epic story, with a colourful cast of characters, from blazing gas giants and wandering stars to distant dwarf planets and icy moons. The authors examine both the mythology that once influenced astronomy and the latest scientific discoveries that help us to understand the night sky better.

With a foreword by fellow astronomer and regular of Sky at Night guest Brian May, this is an indispensable guide to our Solar System and the Universe beyond. ”
