Here Lowell expands beyond Mars to present a broad cosmological study of nebulae, planetary development, and the formation of solar systems, illustrated with striking early astrophotographic plates including Saturn and the Andromeda Nebula. An appealing turn-of-the-century science title with strong crossover interest for astronomy, planetary science, and the history of speculative cosmology.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Buzz Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53037832274199,"sku":null,"price":195.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0846\/0887\/6823\/files\/044E3DFF-63BA-4F7B-BD57-71809652E0BB.jpg?v=1778006688","url":"https:\/\/buzzbookstore.com\/de\/products\/lowell-percival-the-evolution-of-worlds-macmillan-1909-1st-edition","provider":"Buzz Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
