Practical Universe: Observations, Experiments, and Exercises has been in print for over twenty-five years. The progress in astronomy since that time, both regarding new observations and the development of new methods and techniques, is gigantic and almost beyond anybody’s comprehension.
Practical Universe: Observations, Experiments, and Exercises:
- Is designed to meet the needs and expectations of introductory astronomy courses for non-science majors – no advanced math skills are required.
- Presents exercises for outdoor observations, regular laboratory experiments, and classroom and homework exercises.
- Includes units about extrasolar planets, stellar and supermassive black holes and Kuiper Belt Objects.
- Recognizes the new understanding of the Solar System, now considered to host eight planets instead of nine.
- Includes exercises available for software packages such as Starry Night and Stellarium.
