Synopsis
Forward By Stephen Hawking! Space fuels the Earth-bound imagination with wonder and hope. Today most of what scientists know about the universe is learned from images. What's Out There brings together more than 180 of the most important in a picture dictionary of elegant design, dramatic scale and accessible text. From close-ups of the surface of Mars and Titan to far-flung galaxies and nebulas, the book is a visually stuffing and utilitarian resource. The unique presentation is structured alphabetically for easy navigation on a journey through phenomena such as auroras, black holes, supernovas and white dwarfs. Highlights en route include superb views of a volcano on Jupiter's satellite lo, the nebulas in Orion's belt, and the birth pangs and death throes of stars. For each topic there is expert commentary to explain what you are looking at in language that is concise and inspiring; and each photograph has a data box providing key facts, such as the probe of telescope used to capture the image and the phenomenon's distance from Earth. The Book has tapped nearly 50 worldwide astronomical sources, from Earth-based telescopes to remote spacecraft.
