Download or read book Planetymology written by Isobel M Romero-Shaw and published by . This book was released on 2020-12 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Planetymology is an illustrated introduction to the etymology - the evolution and origins of words - in the context of astronomy. It focuses on European observations of the planets; from Mercury (known to the Ancient Greeks and Romans) all the way to Pluto (discovered as a planet in 1930 and reclassified as a dwarf planet in 2006). This book takes the reader on a tour of the Solar System, introducing the cosmic entities encountered on the way both as characters from Roman and Greek mythology, and as exotic worlds with alien characteristics. It traces the planets' names all the way back to words used by the first humans in Europe, and shows how they often have surprising links to familiar modern-day words. Planetymology is ideal for kids aged 8 - 15, and will be enjoyed by anyone with an interest in language, ancient history and/or astronomy. Blurb: The planets' names carry secrets... How is Neptune linked to hippopotamuses? Which planet's name means Sky-Father? Why did Pluto fail the planet test? Why is Uranus not called George? Read about the Gods and Goddesses that the planets are named after, discover how their names evolved from the language of ancient humans, and uncover hidden links from their names to familiar, commonly-used words. At the same time, learn about the weird and whacky weather on other planets, compare their crazy day-and-night cycles to ours on Earth, and meet Pluto's new dwarf planet friends...

Download or read book Uranus written by Ben Bova and published by Tor Books. This book was released on 2020-07-21 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ben Bova, author of Earth, continues his exploration of the future of a human-settled Solar System with the science fiction action adventure Uranus, the first of his Outer Planets trilogy. On a privately financed orbital habitat above the planet Uranus, political idealism conflicts with pragmatic, and illegal, methods of financing. Add a scientist who has funding to launch a probe deep into Uranus‘s ocean depths to search for signs of life, and you have a three-way struggle for control. Humans can’t live on the gas giants, making instead a life in orbit. Kyle Umber, a religious idealist, has built Haven, a sanctuary above the distant planet Uranus. He invites ”the tired, the sick, the poor“ of Earth to his orbital retreat where men and women can find spiritual peace and refuge from the world. The billionaire who financed Haven, however, has his own designs: beyond the reach of the laws of the inner planets Haven could become the center for an interplanetary web of narcotics, prostitution, even hunting human prey. Meanwhile a scientist has gotten funding from the Inner Planets to drop remote probes into the “oceans” of Uranus, in search of life. He brings money and prestige, but he also brings journalists and government oversight to Haven. And they can’t have that. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
