The Story of the Sun, Moon, and Stars
About this book
The Sun, Moon and planets introduce a wider journey through comets, meteors and distant stars. Clear explanations and illustrations connect familiar sights with the scale and movements of the solar system and the forces that organise it. Written as an accessible introduction to astronomy, the book also preserves the discoveries, terminology and open questions of its own scientific period.
