Description:
|
This comprehensive and detailed book gives a full report on the current state of scientific knowledge on Halley's comet, on its implications for comets in general, and for the origin and evolution of the solar system. The articles in the book are based on the contributions (and following discussions) to the symposium on the exploration of Halley's comet, Heidelberg, October 1966, where scientists who had participated in the unprecedented investigation of Halley's comet by six spacecraft and a worldwide network of observatories assembled to exchange their results. Over 160 papers together with technical reviews of the space missions, the activity report of the International Halley Watch and an extensive science summary make up this standard reference on Halley's comet.
