Our discovery and observation of both planets have been hampered by their sheer distance from Earth: there has only been one close encounter, \u003ci\u003eVoyager 2\u003c\/i\u003e in the late 1980s. The \u003ci\u003eVoyager\u003c\/i\u003e mission revealed many enticing details about the planets and their moons but also left many more questions unanswered. This book is an informative and accessible introduction to Uranus, Neptune, and their moons. It takes readers on a journey from discovery to the most recent observations made from space- and ground-based telescopes, and it will appeal to amateur and professional astronomers alike.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Carolyn Kennett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1789146410\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781789146417\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Reaktion Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/13\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.70h x 6.90w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2023","brand":"Carolyn Kennett","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44073263628543,"sku":"9781789146417","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6c4094ce-2122-4d4b-a203-6496c1712eaf.jpg?v=1685446794","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/uranus-and-neptune-carolyn-kennett-9781789146417","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
