Twelve Faces of Saturn: Your Guardian Angel Planet Astrologers, hang on to your hats: Bil Tierney is behind the wheel of another heavy-duty book, and he's ready to take you on a road trip into the unexplored astrological significances of Saturn. You'll see that Saturn isn't just a celestial parent making sure we follow the rules; it is "the cosmic version of collagen," allowing us to think in terms of "me" and "you," rather than functioning as one undifferentiated life form. Tierney gives a tour of each of Saturn's aspects, houses, and signs, as well as its different modalities. He even points out the similarities between Saturn's astrological character and its role in mythology, psychology, and astronomy, which makes Twelve Faces of Saturn a hefty reference work. Lest you fear for your sanity in the face of all of this weighty information, take heart in knowing that Tierney's unique sense of humor is injected into every facet of this informative astrological tool.

Crisis after crisis has given authoritarians the upper hand. Freedom and opportunity exist in space, for those with the nerve and skill to run the risks. Now the governments of Earth are encouraging many of their most incorrigible dissidents to join a great ark on a one-way expedition, twice Jupiter's distance from the Sun, to Saturn, the ringed planet that baffled Galileo and has fascinated astronomers ever since. But humans will be human, on Earth or in the heavens-so amidst the idealism permeating Space Habitat Goddard are many individuals with long-term schemes, each awaiting the tight moment. And hidden from them is the greatest secret of all, the real purpose of this expedition, known to only a few.... Author: Ben Bova Mass Market Paperback: 480 pages Company: Tor Science Fiction (2004-09-01) (2004-08-26) ISBN: 0812579429 List Price: $7.99 Amazon Price: $2.75 Used Price: $0.01 Titan Unveiled: Saturn's Mysterious Moon Explored In the early 1980s, when the two Voyager spacecraft skimmed past Titan, Saturn's largest moon, they transmitted back enticing images of a mysterious world concealed in a seemingly impenetrable orange haze. Titan Unveiled is one of the first general interest books to reveal the startling new discoveries that have been made since the arrival of the Cassini-Huygens mission to Saturn and Titan. Ralph Lorenz and Jacqueline Mitton take readers behind the scenes of this mission. Launched in 1997, Cassini entered orbit around Saturn in summer 2004. Its formidable payload included the Huygens probe, which successfully parachuted down through Titan's atmosphere in early 2005, all the while transmitting images and data--and scientists were startled by what they saw. One of those researchers was Lorenz, who gives an insider's account of the scientific community's first close encounter with an alien landscape of liquid methane seas and turbulent orange skies. Amid the challenges and frayed nerves, new discoveries are made, including methane monsoons, equatorial sand seas, and Titan's polar hood. Lorenz and Mitton describe Titan as a world strikingly like Earth and tell how Titan may hold clues to the origins of life on our own planet and possibly to its presence on others. Generously illustrated with many stunning images, Titan Unveiled is essential reading for anyone interested in space exploration, planetary science, or astronomy.

Paperback: 511 pages Company: NaSA, Washington DC (1980) List Price: Amazon Price: Used Price: $17.94 Saturn and How to Observe It (Astronomers' Observing Guides) This new series is designed especially for practical amateur astronomers who not only want to observe, but want to know the details of exactly what they are looking at. Saturn is the second largest planet in the solar system, and the only one with a spectacular ring system that is easily visible from Earth. Saturn is a gas-giant, a huge world dominated by its rings and a retinue of moons. It is probably the most commonly observed and imaged planet for amateur astronomers, because it is always changing - the moons move visibly in the course of an hour, the weather systems on the planet change, and the orientation of the ring alters this way and that. The concept of the book - and the series - is to present an up-to-date detailed description (part one); and then (part two) to consider how best to observe and record the planet, its moons and its ring system successfully. "Saturn and How to Observe It" is a mine of information for all levels of amateur observers, from the beginner to the experienced.
