Science Books - Exploring the Night Sky
Ages 9 and up
By Terence Dickinson
Explore different aspects of our solar system. See snaps of the universe at different distances from Earth, 1.3 light-seconds to 300,000,000 light years from Earth. Then learn about the different planets, stars, black holes and more which are found in the universe. The last section is devoted to star gazing. Learn about constellations and when some of them can be seen, learn how to read star maps and more. There is also a section about buying equipment for backyard star gazing. The photographs and colour illustrations help you understand and visualize what is being described.
