A guide to space containing illustrations, maps, charts and photographs. Provides information on the clusters of interplanetary phenomena and the charting of the planets to allow an exploration of the galaxy. Presents the ancient Greek and Egyptian theories alongside the methods of modern astrophysics.
When you stare into the night sky, what do you see? Can you identify the constellations, and understand how they were formed? Do you know what causes shooting stars, meteor streams, and other matter from outer space? This guide to space contains the answers to questions such as: why is the night dark in spite of the stars?; how are planets charted?; what are the clusters of interplanetary phenomena?; and how did the zodiac evolve? The book also goes back through history to the ancient Greeks and Egyptians for their philosophy and science of the cosmos, and then investigates the methods of modern astrophysics and new technologies.
