Books with title Be an Astronomer

They play an important role in understanding our Earth, and its place in a universe so vast, it can sometimes defy our understanding. Modern astronomy allows people to see places no human can ever expect to touch, at distances no human could ever expect to travel. It also begs the question: could there be life on another planet? Learn all about the early astronomers and the techniques and tools they used to further the science of astronomy.
