More DescriptionWe have collected here 450 best problems from Astronomy Olympiads
conducted in Moscow since 1947, along with comprehensive solutions
and explanations. For many years regional and international astronomical
and astrophysical Olympiads have been conducted and winners
subsequently have been amongst the best students in universities and later
excellent specialists in astronomy and astrophysics. Practical astronomy,
astrodynamics, astrophysics, planetology, and astronautics are the general
subjects of the problems. These problems are of very different difficulty
levels, from simple questions for young amateur astronomers to real
problems for professionals. The book is aimed at school and college
students and teachers, as well as amateur and professional astronomers.
As Astronomy is not part of the school curriculum, this book will help
prepare for participation in the Astronomy Olympiads. In true Russian
tradition, the book uses problems to explain concepts in astronomy in a
very engaging and interesting manner. The long-awaited English translation
would be very useful.
