The Sky at Night - Sir Patrick Moore This is Sir Patrick Moore's first collection of Sky at Night essays for more than ten years, and the first since his long-deserved knighthood. It will be warmly welcomed by his legion of enthusiastic fans. The book accompanies the hugely successful BBC television series, and ranges across the whole spectrum of astronomy, space exploration and astrophysics. The essays track the amazing story of astronomical discovery over the last eventful decade. For Earthbound viewers, the spectacular appearance of the Hale-Bopp and Halley's comets, followed by solar and lunar eclipses, triggered a huge upsurge in popular interest. In this same decade, the Hubble Space Telescope transmitted thousands of spectacular images from deep space, shedding new light on the structure and origins of the Universe. And the robot lander on the surface of Mars relayed amazing information about surface conditions on the red planet - which some scientists believe will be the next home for mankind. The essays include fascinating discussions with many leading astronomers, and are rendered in Sir Patrick's inimitable conversational style. Irresistible reading. |
