Beschreibung:
Clifford J. Cunningham is a research fellow at the University of Southern Queensland and a research associate at the National Astronomical Research Institute of Thailand. He is the author of many books, including Introduction to Asteroids.
Grounded in historical studies of asteroids from the nineteenth century, Asteroids is a fully up to date view of these remarkable objects. Without resorting to any technical plots or mathematics, the author shows that asteroids are not just rocks in space, but key to understanding the life and death on Earth of both animals and humans. From space missions to the asteroids starring role in literature and film, Clifford J. Cunningham precisely and entertainingly looks at the place asteroids have in our solar system and how they affect our daily lives.
A fully up-to-date view of the remarkable cosmic objects, asteroids.
