Nine Planets: Astronomy for the Space Age

by Alan E. Nourse

  • Used
  • good
  • Hardcover
1970 2nd and revised edition. Yeah remember when there were nine planets....well Pluto is still there, albeit demoted to a mere minor planet. Here is an example of the scientific method whereby new information is used to revise something and bring what is observed into clearer view. Ex-Library with the card literally ripped off of the front end paper and stamped "Withdrawn" with the library stamps on the top and bottom edges. There are tape "ghosts" where the cover was taped to the endpapers. The tape has been removed and the Mylar cover has been replaced. Front board is loose. Still a good read and a good reference to the Solar System. 322 pp w/illus, bibliography, and index
