Download Planetymology Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Planetymology is an illustrated introduction to the etymology - the evolution and origins of words - in the context of astronomy. It focuses on European observations of the planets; from Mercury (known to the Ancient Greeks and Romans) all the way to Pluto (discovered as a planet in 1930 and reclassified as a dwarf planet in 2006). This book takes the reader on a tour of the Solar System, introducing the cosmic entities encountered on the way both as characters from Roman and Greek mythology, and as exotic worlds with alien characteristics. It traces the planets' names all the way back to words used by the first humans in Europe, and shows how they often have surprising links to familiar modern-day words. Planetymology is ideal for kids aged 8 - 15, and will be enjoyed by anyone with an interest in language, ancient history and/or astronomy. Blurb: The planets' names carry secrets... How is Neptune linked to hippopotamuses? Which planet's name means Sky-Father? Why did Pluto fail the planet test? Why is Uranus not called George? Read about the Gods and Goddesses that the planets are named after, discover how their names evolved from the language of ancient humans, and uncover hidden links from their names to familiar, commonly-used words. At the same time, learn about the weird and whacky weather on other planets, compare their crazy day-and-night cycles to ours on Earth, and meet Pluto's new dwarf planet friends...

Download Discovering Pluto Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Discovering Pluto is an authoritative account of the exploration of Pluto and its moons, from the first inklings of tentative knowledge through the exciting discoveries made during the flyby of the NASA New Horizons research spacecraft in July 2015. Co-author Dale P. Cruikshank was a co-investigator on the New Horizons mission, while co-author William Sheehan is a noted historian of the Solar System. Telling the tale of Pluto’s discovery, the authors recount the grand story of our unfolding knowledge of the outer Solar System, from William Herschel’s serendipitous discovery of Uranus in 1781, to the mathematical prediction of Neptune’s existence, to Percival Lowell’s studies of the wayward motions of those giant planets leading to his prediction of another world farther out. Lowell’s efforts led to Clyde Tombaugh’s heroic search and discovery of Pluto—then a mere speck in the telescope—at Lowell Observatory in 1930. Pluto was finally recognized as the premier body in the Kuiper Belt, the so-called third zone of our Solar System. The first zone contains the terrestrial planets (Mercury through Mars) and the asteroid belt; the second, the gas-giant planets Jupiter through Neptune. The third zone, holding Pluto and the rest of the Kuiper Belt, is the largest and most populous region of the solar system. Now well beyond Pluto, New Horizons will continue to wend its lonely way through the galaxy, but it is still transmitting data, even today. Its ultimate legacy may be to inspire future generations to uncover more secrets of Pluto, the Solar System, and the Universe.
