2022 marks the 45th anniversary of the Voyager probe launches. Launched into space in 1977, these twin probes explored the farthest reaches of the Solar System before venturing on a one-way journey beyond, all the while testing the bounds of science, robotic exploration and our collective imagination. This heavily revised commemorative book takes a comprehensive look at their incredible achievements, future potential and overall legacy. Chronicled herein is an epic journey to unveil the mysterious outer reaches of the Solar System for the first time. The book recounts the Voyagers travels through the asteroid belt and past the giant gaseous planets Jupiter and Saturn, as well as Voyager 2s forays near the distant ice giants Uranus and Neptune. Each chapter details in full the game-changing scientific data and glorious imagery they sent back to Earth. This new edition incorporates all the new data we have learned in the nearly 20 years since its original publication, discussing how the knowledge first gleaned with Voyager has been built upon in subsequent decades by Cassini, Juno and New Horizons. The Voyager probes captured imaginations around the world; now is an opportune time to reflect on their unparalleled quest across the edges of the Solar System and the enigmatic interstellar medium beyond

Based on the author's own work and results obtained by international teams he coordinated, this SpringerBrief offers a concise discussion of the origin and early evolution of atmospheres of terrestrial planets during the active phase of their host stars, as well as of the environmental conditions which are necessary in order for planets like the Earth to obtain N_2-rich atmospheres. Possible thermal and non-thermal atmospheric escape processes are discussed in a comparative way between the planets in the Solar System and exoplanets. Lastly, a hypothesis for how to test and study the discussed atmosphere evolution theories using future UV transit observations of terrestrial exoplanets within the orbits of dwarf stars is presented.

En marsmannetjes, hoe zit het daar nu mee? Het heelal fascineert jong en oud en roept dan ook talloze vragen op.Ann, Vincent en Günther van 'UGent Volkssterrenwacht Armand Pien' geven heel wat geheimen over de ruimte prijs in het boek '100 Kindervragen Sterren en Planeten'.In het boek bundelden ze 100 vragen die kinderen hen stelden tijdens hun klasbezoeken aan de sterrenwacht en gaven er een boeiend en helder antwoord op. Het boek is het ideale leesvoer voor elke astronaut in spe.Onderzoek het ontstaan van het heelal, ontdek nieuwe hemellichamen of neem een kijkje in de geschiedenis van de ruimtevaart.
