Tales of the Night Sky shines fresh light on the mythological meaning and cultural significance of constellations, and includes a beautiful 18 x 24inch poster illustrating 33 of the best-known among them.
Mindful Thoughts for Stargazersexplores how knowledge of the workings of the universe can deepen our levels of awareness and connect us to our internal worlds.
Focusing on the orbital mechanics tools and techniques necessary to design, predict, and guide a trajectory of a spacecraft traveling between two or more bodies in a Solar System, this book covers the dynamical theory necessary for describing the motion of bodies in space, examines the N-body problem, and shows applications using this theory for designing interplanetary missions.
This book offers the Greek text and an English translation of Aristarchus of Samos's On the Sizes and Distances of the Sun and Moon, accompanied by a full introduction, detailed commentary, and relevant scholia.

This book discusses how the increased emanation of radon and other gases from the Earth's crust in the vicinity of active tectonic faults triggers a chain of physical processes and chemical reactions in the atmospheric boundary layer and the Earth's ionosphere over an earthquake area several days/hours before strong seismic shocks occur.
The idea of a black hole goes back to Laplace or maybe even earlier to Englishman John Michell, referring to these bodies as 'dark stars', way back in 1783.
