Subtitled “Questions and Answers,” with a foreword by Dr. John C. Whitcomb, the questions range across subjects such as the earth and the moon, the solar system, the stars, galaxies and the universe, and general science. A new and helpful series of seasonal star charts for the Northern Hemisphere is included, along with a general index and a scripture index.
