After reading the book, you will learn about how the stars are born, how the planets move and where our house is located in the Great Galaxy, which is called the Milky Way. You will read about the sun and lunar eclipses, the phases of the moon and about what the tail of the comet consists of. You will get acquainted with mysterious forces (such as black holes and dark matter), which are so unusual that even scientists still have not completely unraveled their essence. And then you will get to the constellations, learn their names and outlines, as well as stories – which are sometimes called myths, which people came up with to explain and determine them.
And you will learn about rockets, satellites, orbital stations and space travel, including exciting plans for further research. When will a person fly to Mars? This can happen before you think!
Finally, you can take with you for a night walk a map of the starry sky and find all your favorite stars, constellations and planets!
