About This Book

Der Text bietet eine allgemeinverständliche Einführung in das Planetensystem: er erklärt ältere geozentrische Vorstellungen und deren mechanische Modelle sowie die Entwicklung zu einem sonnenzentrierten Weltbild, erläutert die Bahnen und scheinbaren Bewegungen der Planeten, darunter Rückläufigkeit, und beschreibt Aufbau, Größenverhältnisse, Entfernungen und physikalische Eigenschaften der Himmelskörper. Ergänzt wird die Darstellung durch anschauliche Modelle, Vergleichsbetrachtungen und zahlreiche Abbildungen, die Beobachtungsgrundlagen, astronomische Messmethoden und das Verhältnis der Erde zu anderen Planeten in einfacher Sprache veranschaulichen.
