Beschreibung:
James Lawrence Powell, Retired, formerly Director of the Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History, served as Acting President of Oberlin, President of Franklin and Marshall College, President of Reed College, and President of the Franklin Institute Science Museum in Philadelphia. He has written a number of books, the most recent of which is The 2084 Report: An Oral History of the Great Warming (2020). It followed Deadly Voyager: The Ancient Comet Strike That Changed Earth and Human History (2020). He also recently contributed to The Universe As It Really Is (2018).
Unlocking the Moon's Secrets tells the fascinating story of how scientists solved the mystery of the Moon's origin and the cause of the Moon's craters. By showing how science evolves, complete with misunderstandings, contentious arguments, difficult to relinquish assumptions, and shifting views as new facts come to light, we can finally understand our Moon.
