Description

The bodies of our solar system have orbited continuously around the Sun since their formation, but they have not always been there, and conditions have not always been as they are today.

The Story of the Solar System explains how our solar system came into existence, how it has evolved and how it might end billions of years from now.

After a brief historical introduction, the book illustrates the birth of the Sun, and then explains the steps that built up the bodies of the Solar System.

Using vivid illustrations, the planets, moons, asteroids and comets are described in detail.

Comparison of these objects, and analysis of how they have changed and evolved since birth, is followed by a look towards the end of the solar system's existence.

Fully illustrated with beautiful, astronomically accurate paintings, this book will fascinate anyone with an interest in our solar system.
