Many mysteries in art, history, and literature can be solved using "e;celestial sleuthing,"e; including calculating phases of the Moon, determining the positions of the planets and stars, and identifying celestial objects in paintings.
The atlas of the near side of the Moon provides a wealth of named lunar formations that goes far beyond the named features currently identified by the IAU.

: The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) will provide more than one order of magnitude improvement in sensitivity compared with any existing radio telescope over a wavelength range of several hundred to one, from decametric to microwave wavelengths.
Exciting results are blooming, thanks to a convergence between unprecedented asteroseismic data obtained by the satellites CoRoT and KEPLER, and state-of-the-art models of the internal structure of red giants and of galactic evolution.
This book represents Volume II of the Proceedings of the UN/ESA/NASA Workshop on the International Heliophysical Year 2007 and Basic Space Science, hosted by the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan, Tokyo, 18 - 22 June, 2007.
The 2007 ESO Instrument Calibration workshop brought together more than 120 participants with the objective to a) foster the sharing of information, experience and techniques between observers, instrument developers and instrument operation teams, b) review the actual precision and limitations of the applied instrument calibration plans, and c) collect the current and future requirements by the ESO users.
Ispirato alle principali astronome menzionate nella poesia di Siv Cedering "e;Letter from Caroline Herschel"e; alle sue "e;sorelle perdute da tempo, dimenticate nei libri che registrano la nostra scienza"e;, questo libro racconta la vita di venticinque scienziate, con un focus particolare su astronome e matematiche.
