Includes index.
Summary Maths in Space Way out in space, maths plays a COSMIC role. It's a world of spheres and symmetry, and the way the Moon looks from Earth is all down to angles. A total solar eclipse is due to an extraordinary numerical coincidence: the Sun is about 400 times larger than the Moon, but 400 times farther away... Find out why comets shrink, galaxies form spirals, and if there's a mathematical answer to alien life out there... IT'S A MATHEMATICAL WORLD shows exactly that: maths underlies everything around us on Earth and way out in space. The four books present familiar things and explain the maths behind them, perhaps a pattern, sequence or shape. Clear, simple text works with stunning photographs to make maths fun and approachable. There are activities to try, too!
Target audience note Ages 8-12.
