What We See in the Stars
Autor Kelsey Oseiden Limba Engleză Hardback
Combining art, mythology, and science, What We See in the Stars gives readers a tour of the night sky. This beautifully packaged book covers the night sky's most brilliant features--such as the constellations, the moon, the bright stars, and the visible planets--as well as less familiar celestial phenomena like the outer planets, nebulae, and deep space.
