Features: A science popularizer, if he wants to present astronomical facts without specialized language, will find himself in a dilemma: either he has to present the topic as an incomplete concept, or he may further explain force and motion, which may bore his readers. The author of this book adopts a compromise approach to deal with this difficulty: on the one hand, he tries his best to make all readers understand and be interested, and on the other hand, he also includes some specialized explanations—but only when it is necessary to fully understand certain facts. For readers who are unwilling to delve into these details, I hope you will also find some enjoyment in the descriptions and narratives of astronomical phenomena in the book.
