The many illustrations in the three astronomy books of our 'Enjoying Astronomy' series are a real treasure and were used to publish a set of six astronomy posters (for now in Dutch only).

The posters are coupled to the books: 2 posters made from illustrations of one book. The posters are:

1a. Alles beweegt! De bewegingen van Zon en Maan (Everything moves! The movements of the Sun and Moon). It is an overview of the major celestial movements, causing the ‘day’, the ýear’, the seasons, the phases of the Moon, eclipses and more. Size 50 x 70 cm.

1b. The Stars. Everything about stars: their sizes, colours and temperatures, brightness and more. . Size 50 x 70 cm.

2a. Overview of the Solar System. The Solar System in five steps, with the Inner Solar System (up to the Asteroid Belt; the Outer Solar System (the realm of the giant planets); the Kuiper Belt, the Inner Oort Cloud to the Outer Oort Cloud. Size 50 x 70 cm.

2b. The members of the Solar System; comparisons of groups of Solar System objects: the rocky planets, giants, dwarf planets (and candidate dwarf planets!) and satellites (‘moons’). Also a large ‘familie portrait’ with all the members of the Solar System of 1000 km diameter and larger. Finally the Solar System to scale (up to Neptune). Size 50 x 70 cm.

3a – The Universe. An overview of the Universe, in nine step, from the Inner Solar System to a distance of 1 billion light-years and then to the complete Universe. Size 45 x 95 cm, portrait.

3b. Radiation from the Universe. A complete Electromagnetic Spectrum, almost 1 metre wide. Also contains a lot of interesting information about the astronomical importance of different wavelengths, with pictures of the great galaxy M 81 (Ursa Major) in radio wavelengths, infrared, visible light, UV, X-rays, gamma rays and combinations. Size 45 x 95 cm, landscape.
