Alien Skies: A Travelogue of the Universe gives readers the
opportunity to travel through the universe, visiting a series of
celestial destinations carefully chosen to span the extraordinary
limits of space and time that bound our amazing cosmos. The
destinations in Alien Skies reveal the unusual skies seen from
throughout the solar system, nearby stars, nebulae, and star
clusters, and during a series of voyages exploring the structure
and content of our home galaxy. The itinerary includes nearby
'normal' galaxies, exotic active galaxies, as well as galaxy
groups, clusters and cosmic voids. The final destinations of the
journey traverse space and time to view the evolution of galaxies
and cosmic structure, and of the universe as a whole. Alien Skies
provides a broad, factual overview of modern astronomy, while
instilling interest and enthusiasm of how science reveals the
wonders of our universe. This book can serve as the text for
introductory courses aimed at non-science majors or as background
for courses geared to astronomy and astrophysics majors. It is also
suitable for advanced courses at the high school level.
