Publisher's Summary: The Planets tells the story of each member of our solar family -- from myth and history, astrology and science fiction, to the latest data from the modern era's robotic space probes. Whether revealing what hides behind Venus' clouds, describing Neptune's complex beauty, or capturing first-hand the excitement at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory when the first pictures were beamed to Earth from Saturn, Dava Sobel's unique tour of the solar system is filled with fascination and beauty.In lyrical prose interspersed with poems by Tennyson, Blake, and others, The Planets gives a breathtaking view of those heavenly bodies that have captured the imagination since humanity's first glimpse at the glittering night skies. |
