Description: Exploring Space, Exploring Earth : New Understanding of the Earth from Space Research, Hardcover by Lowman, Paul D., Jr.; Armstrong, Neil A. (FRW), ISBN 0521661250, ISBN-13 9780521661256, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Geologist Lowman (Goddard Space Flight Center) explores the impact of space flight on his field and its subsurface counterpart, geophysics, which he finds largely unappreciated in the earth science community. After previewing the orbital perspective, he considers such facets as space geodesy, satellite studies of geomagnetism, remote sensing, impact cratering and terrestrial geology, comparative planetology and the origin of continental drift, and the influence of life on terrestrial geology. He writes primarily for earth sciences, but outlines the essentials of physical geology and provides a glossary (without pronunciation) for beginners. He also includes 26 color plates. Annotation c.
