7½ Planets, a star and a satellite - introduced by Nick Kollerstrom
And a Disquisition on Geometric Patterns Formed by the Bodies in the Solar System reproduced with kind permission of John Martineau
The geometric patterns traced out in the heavens by the
planets of our beloved solar system are truly awe-inspiring. These mathematical
shapes, and the relationships between the relative orbits and sizes of cosmic
bodies, can be measured with astonishing accuracy. For those of you who are
familiar with the work of John Martineau,
renowned geometer and publisher of
Wooden Books, this will be a welcome and refreshing
extension to his highly acclaimed book A Little Book of Coincidence Earth and Venus #1 ('The Kiss of Venus') Earth and Venus #2 ('Love on Earth') Earth and Venus #3 ('Marital Bliss') Mars-Chiron-Jupiter ('The Crusade') Accuracy: a note from Nick Kollerstom
