With each return of the comet, the book highlights human life at that time, and how science has advanced toward a greater understanding of our universe. \u003cbr\u003e Told in minimal, poetic text paired with detailed captions for context, the book begins with sightings in ancient civilizations, where for centuries, the comet was a mystery recorded in art and writing. From Edmond Halley's successful prediction of the comet's return in 1758, through the advent of technologies like cameras and eventually a spacecraft that photographed its ice core, Halley's Comet tells an inspiring and wide-reaching story of scientific advancement and cultural history. \u003cbr\u003e The book closes by inviting readers to wonder what our world might look like the next time Halley's Comet is visible from earth, expected in 2061. What will the comet \"see,\" next time it passes by on its journey?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Owlkids\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/15\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781771473712\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 32\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 12.20h x 9.20w x 0.40d","brand":"James Gladstone","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":38472030224565,"sku":"9781771473712","price":15.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_948b0c37-0471-412d-9cf3-ed963fe2a0c2.jpg?v=1612933444","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/journey-around-the-sun-the-story-of-halleys-comet-9781771473712","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
