The Stars
A NEW WAY TO SEE THEM
ENLARGED World-Wide EDITION
SIXTH PRINTING, REVISED AND ENLARGED FEBRUARY 1962 PRINTED IN THE U. S. A.
Synopsis
Containing star charts, a guide to the constellations, and details about seasons and the movement of the objects we see in the sky, this classic book makes H. A. Rey’s passion for astronomy evident on every page. Second edition updates concentrate on the planetary and solar system information in the latter half of the book. Facts and figures for each planet have been revised, and new scientific information has been added, including sections on earth-asteroid collisions, black holes, supernovas, the Kuiper Belt (asteroid belt beyond Neptune), Pluto’s reclassification, and how the moon was formed.
