Book description
The Everything Astronomy Book
, by noted SETI Institute scientist Dr. Cynthia Phillips, helps you
stargaze with authority. The book not only provides clear descriptions
of all the theories of the origins of the universe, it explains the
facts about the planets, moons, and stars in language anyone can
understand-completely free of the usual astro-jargon. In addition,
common myths are debunked: Find out why the Big Dipper is not an actual
constellation, and that a shooting star isn't really a star at all!
