Best known as a novelist, Nicholas Christopher began publishing poems in The New Yorker in his twenties, and has published eight collections, praised over the years by poets and critics as being among America's most important poets. Reviewing his selected poems, Crossing the Equator, published eight years ago, The Washington Post said, "To read his richly honed and sensuous work, which has so much tensile strength, is to visit other worlds and then to return to our own disturbed by time, but also refreshed and reawakened." On Jupiter Place is his first book since that collection, and it contains material that is perhaps his most personal, autobiographical and intimate work yet. Beautifully made and carefully constructed, one might be reminded of Keats thinking that his poems were "little machines" of feeling. And everywhere in this book are moments of disorientation, where the wonder of the poem transcends understanding and leads its readers back into themselves slightly startled and richer for the effort. As Merwin has written, "his poems are vibrant with light and the surprise of recognition. He shows us again and again the luminous nature of the familiar." The Washington Post, reviewing his Crossing the Equator: New & Selected Poems, reported that "Nicholas Christopher is a fabulist...His fiction often puts me in mind of Jorge Luis Borges and Italo Calvino, two time–travelers who are his great precursors. His poetry tends to build on the work of Wallace Stevens, Elizabeth Bishop and James Merrill. Like them, he has a taste for the exotic, the faraway, the displaced, the imaginary.
With the increasing sensitivity of the equipment available to the home astronomer, and increasing interest in celestial bodies, this Springer series is a huge helping hand to skywatchers who want to hone their skills. Astronomers' observing guides provide up-to-date information for amateur astronomers who want to know all about what it is they are observing. This is the basis of the first part of the book. The second part details observation techniques for practical astronomers, working with a range of different instruments. The book reviews the latest findings and satellite observations of Jupiter, as well as presenting superb pictures of Jupiter taken by McAnally himself, who proceeds to explain to the reader how to arrive at such beautiful results.
This highly illustrated volume provides a comprehensive and accessible account of Jupiter and its satellites.
Portfolio of 8 charts accompanies v. 83.
Jupiter, the colossal giant of the Solar System and the master of cosmic storms, holds a position of immense significance in the cosmic landscape. Its vast size, powerful magnetic field, and dynamic atmospheric processes make it a key player in shaping not only the planetary system but also the broader cosmic environment. As we delve into the depths of Jupiter’s nature, we uncover a world of complexity and wonder that continues to captivate both scientists and enthusiasts alike. This book, "Jupiter: Master of Cosmic Storms," aims to provide a comprehensive exploration of the many facets of this extraordinary planet. From its massive atmospheric storms to its mesmerizing magnetic field and intriguing moons, Jupiter's impact stretches far beyond its own system. The book offers detailed examinations of Jupiter’s atmospheric phenomena, including the Great Red Spot, vast storm cells, and the role of its powerful magnetic field. It also explores the planet's moons and their significance within the cosmic order. The scope of this book is designed to reveal the intricate and powerful nature of Jupiter. By examining the dynamics of its storms, the protective role of its magnetosphere, and the profound effects it has on its moons and the Solar System, we aim to deepen the understanding of this planetary giant. Jupiter’s influence extends far beyond its own boundaries, affecting the stability and dynamics of the entire Solar System. This work is intended for both academics and enthusiasts, providing a thorough resource for those interested in planetary science and cosmic phenomena. The insights offered here are based on extensive research and observations, shedding light on Jupiter's cosmic power and its pivotal role in the universal order. The book serves as an exploration of Jupiter's stormy nature, interplanetary interactions, and the implications for future scientific research. The study of Jupiter’s role as the master of cosmic storms is not just an academic pursuit but a quest to understand the fundamental processes that govern the universe. As we continue to explore and study this majestic planet, we contribute to a broader understanding of cosmic phenomena and advance our knowledge of the universe’s workings. I hope that this book will inspire curiosity and provide valuable insights into the magnificent and complex nature of Jupiter. As we unravel the mysteries of this cosmic giant, we come closer to understanding the intricate dance of celestial forces that shape our Solar System and beyond.
