Space Explorer 4: Exploring the Sun

Without the Sun there would be no Earth, no life, no us – but our relationship with our parent star has always been a delicate one and the enormous forces which it unleashes could just as easily destroy us as sustain us. Book 4 of the Space Explorer series examines the Sun's innermost workings, compares how it measures up to other stars in the universe, and looks at it its many effects on life on Earth, as well as picturing it in all its savage beauty.
