| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | This book explores "the known galaxy," the region of the Milky Way nearest to Earth, often referred to in science fiction as the part of our galaxy that humanity might have explored first in the future. It describes planets ranging from gloomy ocean worlds and gem-strewn landscapes to wandering planets and hot or cold Jupiters. The aim is to create a sense of place for these distant worlds, merging scientific knowledge with speculative fiction and myths. Written for fans of both science fact and fiction, the book divides the known galaxy into distinct regions, offering scientific descriptions and linking planets to their literary and mythological contexts. This blend of solid science and imaginative storytelling will appeal to readers who want to envision these planets as dynamic places with rich histories. |
