PDF-(DOWNLOAD)-Hubble Legacy: 30 Years of Discoveries and Images

This is the definitive book on the Hubble Space Telescope written by noted astronomer Jim Bell   Looking deep into space by definition means looking back in timeand the Hubble Space Telescope can look very far back including at stars nebulae and galaxies that are millions even billions of years old If there is a single legacy of Hubble as it turns 30 years old and nears the end of its useful life it is this It has done more to chronicle the origin and evolution of the known universe than any other instrument ever created Hubble has also captured an astounding collection of ultraviolet images that include geysers of solar light Mars famous dust storms exploding stars solar flares globular clusters and actual galaxies colliding As for scientific milestones Hubble has helped us learn that the universe is 138 billion years old that just about every large galaxy features a black hole at its center and that its possible to create 3D maps of dark matter Hubble Legacy will not only feature the most stunning imagery captured by the telescope but also explain how Hubble has advanced our understanding of the universe and our very creation  .

To celebrate NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope and its 25 years of accomplishments, let The Hubble Cosmos fill your mind with big ideas, brilliant imagery, and a new understanding of the universe in which we live. Relive key moments in the monumental Hubble story, from launch through major new instrumentation to the promise of discoveries to come. With more than 150 photographs including Hubble All-Stars—the most famous of all the noteworthy images—The Hubble Cosmos shows how this telescope is revolutionizing our understanding of the universe. This book traces the history of Sikorsky aviation and its founder, Igor I. Sikorsky, one of the most talented and versatile aeronautical pioneers in history. Sikorsky\'s aviation career spanned over 60 years and was highlighted by three major achievements: the creation of the world\'s first four-engine airliner the record-breaking Clipper Ships, with which Pan American Airways explored transpacific and transatlantic airline service and the development of the helicopter. Sikorsky then led his engineers out of the piston-engine era and into the jet age with the design and development of some of the most widely used turbine-powered helicopters in aviation history. More than 200 photographs, many from the Sikorsky family archives, document the genius of Sikorsky\'s intuitive engineering and his lifelong interest in the challenge of the helicopter, which many historians consider to be his crowning achievement.

Praise for the first edition: -Superbly well produced. Any engagement with this \'cosmic portfolio, \' from picture gazing to deep reading, is grandly rewarded.- --Booklist[starred review] -The book\'s precise descriptions and captions brilliantly complement the 300 full-color Hubble images . . . this is an amazing book . . . outstanding.- --Library Journal-A treasure map to the majesty of our universe.- --Publishers Weekly-A reminder that the finest telescope in space might also be the greatest camera ever created.- --Wall Street JournalThe first edition of Hubble\'s Universe displayed 300 pages of high-resolution celestial portraits selected by bestselling astronomy writer Terence Dickinson from the initial 22 years of the Hubble Space Telescope\'s exploration of distant galaxies. With the telescope now at the apex of its imaging capabilities, this second edition adds another chapter with more than 36 completely new images, including the first publication of a four-page fold-out of the Andromeda Galaxy, the nearest spiral galaxy to Earth, revealing more than one million individual stars.Thanks to Dickinson\'s expertise with Hubble\'s history and discoveries and his access to top Hubble scientists for insight and accuracy, the text includes facts and tidbits not found in any other book. Combined with 330 brilliant images, the clear, succinct and illuminating narrative brings to life the fascinating forces at work in the universe. Atınç Çağan Şengül. A little historical background.
