Paul Bradley's Galaxy of Stars
Until now you may never have heard of Paul Bradley, a quiet unassuming gardener from Yorkshire. Paul is a sufferer of Asperger's syndrome which leads to passionate, some would say obsessive, behaviour. However Paul's indomitable spirit has enabled him to channel his enormous energy into amassing a truly remarkable collection of autographs and photographs of movie stars, producers and directors. That he has done this on a shoestring budget with savings from his gardening jobs is even more remarkable. Taking the overnight coach (to save money) from Yorkshire to London, he has met and rubbed shoulders with a galaxy of stars . He is on first name terms with more Oscar and BAFTA winners than you could imagine possible. The book traces Paul's family history in Scarborough and commences with a photograph of Sir Winston Churchill taken by his great-grandfather. What a start This is going to be the Rainman of the book world and before you ask, yes, Tom Cruise and Dustin Hoffman are both featured.
A Galaxy of Sea Stars
A Bank Street Best Book of 2021 A Galaxy of Sea Stars is Jeanne Zulick Ferruolo’s second middle-grade novel—a heartwarming story about family, loyalty, and the hard choices we face in the name of friendship. Sometimes, the truth isn’t easy to see. Sometimes, you have to look below the surface to find it. Eleven-year-old Izzy feels as though her whole world is shifting, and she doesn’t like it. She wants her dad to act like he did before he was deployed to Afghanistan. She wants her mom to live with them at the marina where they’ve moved instead of spending all her time on Block Island. Most of all, she wants Piper, Zelda, and herself—the Sea Stars—to stay best friends, as they ...

Star Formation in Galaxy Evolution: Connecting Numerical Models to Reality
This book contains the elaborated and updated versions of the 24 lectures given at the 43rd Saas-Fee Advanced Course. Written by four eminent scientists in the field, the book reviews the physical processes related to star formation, starting from cosmological down to galactic scales. It presents a detailed description of the interstellar medium and its link with the star formation. And it describes the main numerical computational techniques designed to solve the equations governing self-gravitating fluids used for modelling of galactic and extra-galactic systems. This book provides a unique framework which is needed to develop and improve the simulation techniques designed for understanding the formation and evolution of galaxies. Presented in an accessible manner it contains the present day state of knowledge of the field. It serves as an entry point and key reference to students and researchers in astronomy, cosmology, and physics.
Fundamentals of Galaxy Dynamics, Formation and Evolution
Galaxies, along with their underlying dark matter halos, constitute the building blocks of structure in the Universe. Of all fundamental forces, gravity is the dominant one that drives the evolution of structures from small density seeds at early times to the galaxies we see today. The interactions among myriads of stars, or dark matter particles, in a gravitating structure produce a system with fascinating connotations to thermodynamics, with some analogies and some fundamental differences. Ignacio Ferreras presents a concise introduction to extragalactic astrophysics, with emphasis on stellar dynamics, and the growth of density fluctuations in an expanding Universe. Additional chapters are...
Galaxy
Each night, we are able to gaze up at the night sky and look at the thousands of stars that stretch to the end of our individual horizons. But the stars we see are only those that make up our own Milky Way galaxy—but one of hundreds of billions in the whole of the universe, each separated by inconceivably huge tracts of empty space. In this book, astronomer James Geach tells the rich stories of both the evolution of galaxies and our ability to observe them, offering a fascinating history of how we’ve come to realize humanity’s tiny place in the vast universe. Taking us on a compelling tour of the state-of-the-art science involved in mapping the infinite, Geach offers a first-hand accou...
Seventh Grade Vs. the Galaxy
In the year 2299, seventh-grader Jack and his classmates find themselves in hostile alien territory after Jack accidentally launches their rickety public schoolship light years away from home.
Superstars
From bestselling author and expert in paper and art crafts, Paul Jackson, comes this eagerly awaited new project, Superstars. Create a galaxy of amazing 3D stars and other geometric shapes with these pre-cut and scored sheets. Superstars are simple and quick to fold; based on geometrical solids, the forms are surprisingly sturdy. You can make large and impressive decorations (bring on Christmas!) as well as using the kit as a craft activity in itself - they can be taken apart and used again as many times as you like! Featuring simple instructional videos instead of complex written instructions, these superstars will absorb both experienced paper folders and enthusiastic amateurs. Superstars ...
Star Wars: A Scanimation Book
Imagine: the first Star Wars book that actually moves, bringing to life the most memorable scenes from the epic: Obi-Wan battles Darth Maul The Millennium Falcon zooms away from an exploding Death Star Luke rides a galloping Tauntaun, Yoda twirls his green lightsaber, Boba Fett blasts up, up and away! And of course the most memorable scene of all—red and blue lightsabers flashing, Luke and Darth Vader fight the ultimate battle between good and evil. It’s a marriage made in a galaxy far, far away: phenomenal Scanimation meets Star Wars, the enduring epic that’s sold $42 billion in ticket sales and earned the title #1 Boys Action Toy License of all time. Created by Rufus Butler Seder, Star Wars: A Scanimation Book presents 12 of the most memorable scenes, in a landscape, i.e., movie format. It’s an homage from an artist obsessed with the earliest forms of capturing visual motion to an artist obsessed with the most advanced. But that’s not what young fans will care about—this is having pure movie magic in the palm of your hand, to replay again and again.
