Description
This work studies the history of astronomy from its beginnings in the prehistoric world to the period when the Earth was considered the center of the universe, then later to a heliocentric view of the solar system, and finally to the most current knowledge of the universe. Terms such as galaxies, stars and their types, planets, satellites, asteroids, comets, and others are used to discuss this world. Areas covered in the book include how the sky is studied, how our Sun will burn out and how the Earth will die, how the universe began, and how it will end. All of this thanks to the men and women throughout history astronomers, mathematicians, physicists, and even philosophers who helped create our understanding of space and its celestial bodies."
