About This Book

A series of essays offers accessible explanations of light and the ether, the vastness of space and minute scales of matter, and the mystery of gravity, then surveys celestial phenomena—world endings, aurorae, lunar halos, and moonlight. It also describes fancied figures among the stars, observational practices including transits of Venus, and the links between physical theory and the visual spectacle of the heavens.
