enjoyable and authoritative read
| Customer Rating: | If you are curious about our universe, this book is an enjoyable and reliable introduction. The authors are professional astronomers, who write eloquently for a general, educated audience. In straightforward prose, they describe the reaches of modern astronomy.
Including the marvellous results of spacecrafts that have been to other planets in our solar system. The photos of planetary surfaces are beautiful and illuminate much information about our nearest neighbours.
On a different scale, literally, is the evolution of the universe itself. From the Big Bang and the Cosmic Microwave Background to the condensation of the galaxies and their stars. And the evolution of the elements, starting from hydrogen. A conceptual sweep. |
