Hardcover & DVD

Annotation

All set to be adopted as the official book of the International Year of Astronomy (IYA) 2009, this stunningly illustrated history of telescopic discovery spans the range from the first telescopes via the Hubble Space Telescope to next generation platforms, and how they have changed and continue to change our view of the universe, our place it in and where it all came from. The highly experienced science communicators have many full-page photographs and the book is printed in high-quality color throughout.
Also includes the official IYA DVD with 54 minutes of narrated text, expert comments and interviews, animations, computer simulations, science results, plus footage from observatories.
