Description

Colours of the Galaxies by David Malin and Paul Murdin is a richly illustrated astronomy book about galaxies, space photography and the colours of the universe. The book explores how colour can reveal important information about stars, nebulae and galaxies, while also showing the beauty of deep-space photography. It is a good choice for readers who enjoy astronomy, science, photographic books and accessible explanations of the night sky.

With its striking images and clear scientific focus, this volume will appeal to amateur astronomers, space enthusiasts and collectors of illustrated science books. It is also suitable for anyone interested in how astronomical photographs help us understand the structure, age and activity of galaxies
