More Mathematical Astronomy Morsels

More Mathematical Astronomy Morsels

More Mathematical Astronomy Morsels" is a marvelous sequel to Meeus' original "Mathematical Astronomy Morsels". I own five of Meeus' books, and all are highly valued reference items in my astronomical library.

Those who are interested in learning about the fascinating movements of the heavens will find it a joy reading both books in the "Morsels" series. "More" has truly wonderful chapters on lunar cycles, eclipses, occultations, transits, planetary orbits and conjunctions, an Earth synchronous asteroid, and much much more.

Don't be intimidated by the word "mathematics" in the title. Unlike Meeus' "Astronomical Algorithms", which gives you formulae related to celestial mechanics, Meeus in "Morsels" has already made the calculations and given you the results in an easy to read format with beautiful graphics
