WE NOW KNOW THAT THEY BRING BOTH LIFE AND DEATH AND TEACH US ABOUT OUR ORIGINS. Comet begins with a breathtaking journey through space astride a comet. Pulitzer Prize-winning astronomer Carl Sagan, author of Cosmos and Contact, and writer Ann Druyan explore the origin, nature, and future of comets, and the exotic myths and portents attached to them. The authors show how comets have spurred some of the great discoveries in the history of science and raise intriguing questions about these brilliant visitors from the interstellar dark. Were the fates of the dinosaurs and the origins of humans tied to the wanderings of a comet?

Are comets the building blocks from which worlds are formed? Lavishly illustrated with photographs and specially commissioned full-color paintings, Comet is an enthralling adventure, indispensable for anyone who has ever gazed up at the heavens and wondered why.

SCIENCE, POETRY, AND IMAGINATION.' *The Atlanta Journal & Constitution. Buku ini membahas segala sesuatu tentang salah satu benda langit yang disebut juga bintang berekor, komet. Mulai dari awal diketahui keberadaannya, sejarah, asal-usul proses pembentukannya, mitologi, dan sifat-sifatnya secara ilmiah, juga peran, persepsi dan perubahan pemahaman manusia terhadap komet. Ditulis dan pertama kali diterbitkan pada tahun 1985, sebagian besar bahasan pada buku ini masih cukup relevan untuk dibaca saat ini.

Karena saya merasa tidak punya dasar dan pemahaman astronomi yang lebih mendalam 😀, saya tidak tahu persis bagian-bagian mana yang benar-benar sudah tidak relevan dengan perkembangan ilmu astronomi saat ini Recommended to astronomy lover and Sagan fans! Mysterious Traveler: Once upon a time, the young Albert Einstein tried to imagine what it would be like to ride on a beam of light and what the universe would look like to that observer. Writing in his 1985 book, Comet, author Carl Sagan takes the reader on another imaginary journey. This time the observer is riding aboard a wayward comet traveling from the Solar System's outer fringe, around the sun and back into deep space again, giving the reader a birds eye view of what you would see on such Mysterious Traveler: Once upon a time, the young Albert Einstein tried to imagine what it would be like to ride on a beam of light and what the universe would look like to that observer.

Writing in his 1985 book, Comet, author Carl Sagan takes the reader on another imaginary journey. This time the observer is riding aboard a wayward comet traveling from the Solar System's outer fringe, around the sun and back into deep space again, giving the reader a birds eye view of what you would see on such a trip. Who knows where such 'flights of fancy' can lead? The former; to a paradigm changing theory.

And the latter; to an in depth look at a strange visitor from the depths of space. Part science, part history and, in the original hard-bound edition, a generous helping of classical and new art work. While the Kindle edition has the charts, graphs and many black & white illustrations the beautiful color paintings are either missing or rendered in B&W. Trafaret bukv alfavita v formate a4 price. While this does not diminish Sagan's text in any way, it would have been a nice addition to the overall reading experience. You have to wonder what the publishers were thinking when they OK'd this treatment of both Cosmos and Comet for e-reader release. The text itself is stunning, Sagan's knowledge seems unlimited and his writing skills were never better.

This edition is the 1997 update by co-author Ann Druyan to include any new findings (to that point) and theories on comets and astronomy but you may want to use this book as a jumping off point to more recent writings. The history of comets and how they interacted with human society is fascinating and Sagan takes you back to the beginning, to our earliest records of comet sightings. What are comets made of? How are they formed?
