PDF-(READ)-Introduction to Planetary Science: The Geological Perspective

This textbook is intended to be used in a lecture course for college students majoring in Earth Sciences Planetary science provides an opportunity for these students to apply a wide range of subject matter pertaining to the Earth to the study of other planets and their principal satellites In this way planetary science tends to unify subjects in the Earth Sciences that are traditionally taught separately Therefore planetary science is wellsuited to be taught as a capstone course for senior undergraduates in geology departments and as an introduction to the solar system in astronomy departments Both groups of students will benefit because planetary science bridges the gap between geology and astronomy and it prepares geologists and astronomers to participate actively in the ongoing exploration of the solar systemThe subject matter is presented in 24 chapters that lead the reader through the solar system starting with historical perspectives on space exploration and the development of the scientific method The presentations concerning the planets and their satellites emphasize that their origin and subsequent evolution can be explained by applications of certain basic principles of physics chemistry and celestial mechanics and that the surface features of the solid bodies in the solar system can be interpreted by means of the principles of geology.

Using a modern, quantitative approach, this book reconsiders geologic processes outside the traditional terrestrial context. It highlights processes that are contingent upon Earth\'s unique circumstances and processes that are universal. For example, it shows explicitly that equations predicting the velocity of a river are dependent on gravity: traditional geomorphology textbooks fail to take this into account. This textbook is a one-stop source of information on planetary surface processes, providing readers with the necessary background to interpret new data from NASA, ESA and other space missions. Based on a course taught by the author at the University of Arizona for 25 years, it is aimed at advanced students, and is also an invaluable resource for researchers, professional planetary scientists and space-mission engineers.
