This work complements the book by the same author, The sky with the naked eye and binoculars. It mentions the upcoming planetary positions, observable eclipses and many other useful information.
It answers the eternal questions: What is the age of the Earth? Can the Sun ever go out? What is the Big Bang? Is the Universe finite? Are we alone in this Universe?

Contents:

What is the sky? Travel in a beam of light. Our homeland, the blue planet. The Moon, Earth's suburb. The Sun, our star.
What is the solar system? The fiery planets. Mars, the rusty planet. Jupiter, frustrated sun. Saturn, monster or wonder? The distant planets. The stars with hair. The visitors of the night. The cosmic scale.
What is a star? Variables and explosives. When suns regroup.
What is the Milky Way? An abundance of mysteries. A universe of galaxies.
Is the Cosmos infinite? Are we alone in the Universe?

Annexes: The firmament a la carte. Tables. One hundred centuries of astronomy. Practical information.
Illustrated with 44 illustrations and 24 tables in color and black and white
