About
This encyclopedia of the universe contains more than 2,000 astronomical photographs taken with the Hubble Space Telescope and other large telescopes around the world. The scale and quality of the photographs used in this book are such that you can enjoy space observation even without a telescope.
Unlike a mere collection of space photos, this book also features a wealth of space-related topics, such as the history and latest developments in space, the story of the constellations, and mythology. From the basics, such as "How the Universe Forms" and "From the Birth to Death of Stars," to interesting discussions such as "Seven Mysteries of the Universe," the reader can learn about the universe. The book also includes useful data such as information on planetariums around Japan, solar and lunar eclipse tables, and a list of constellation data, as well as an appendix that includes a star chart.
It is not an inexpensive book, but it is a valuable one that can be treasured for a lifetime.
