With answers to these questions and all sorts of other fun facts, this richly illustrated volume makes an excellent introductory guide to heavenly bodies, atmospheric phenomena, weather, clouds, air quality, the history of flight, and more. The Sky Handbook is sure to thrill stargazers, weather-watchers, and people who wonder what they're looking at when they stare off into space!
