On a cosmic scale the Solar System is on our doorstep, but it is far from fully explored, and there continues to be a flood of new data and new ideas.
The science of the Solar System is thus a fast-moving subject, posing a major challenge for authors of textbooks. Discovering the Solar System, Second Edition covers the sun, the planets, their satellites and the host of smaller bodies that orbit the sun. This book offers a comprehensive introduction to the subject for science students, and examines the discovery, investigation and modelling of these bodies. Following a thematic approach, chapters cover interiors, surfaces and the atmospheres of major bodies, including the earth. The book starts with an overview of the solar system and its origin, and then takes a look at small
bodies, such as asteroids, comets and meteorites.
