It takes the Moon 29 days to complete a full cycle of its phases. 29 rich and fascinating stories about the huge role that the Moon has played and continues to play, so familiar and incredible, in the life of our civilization.
Mikhail Shevchenko shares knowledge that was previously the prerogative of a narrow circle of specialists. You will immerse yourself in the history of lunar studies, read about journeys - imaginary and real - from the first flight of the ancient Greek hero Menippus to modern space missions, and even peek a little into the cosmic future.
You will learn the answers to many questions in the field of lunar physics, history, culture, and astronautics. What does the far side of the Moon hide? How are tides, ebbs, and earthquakes related? How do lunar eclipses occur? How is the Moon connected to the hare? Where does our satellite have its own terminator?
