ISBN: 9780486442310 - the birth & death of the sun: stellar evolution and subatomic energy (15 Ergebnisse)

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. How did our sun come into being? What keeps it hot and luminous, and what will be its ultimate fate? This fascinating and informative book offers answers to some of nature's most exciting and difficult questions. George Gamow, renowned physicist and author of the best-seller One Two Three . . .
