From the publisher: “Former University of Michigan AOSS (Atmospheric, Oceanic and Space Sciences) doctoral students Daniel Gershman and Kristen Mihalka worked with 826michigan to create a practical guide to the solar system, titled The Moons Were Jealous. The nine chapters in the book each focus on a different celestial body. The chapters include a description of the body, questions and answers, and a page about an AOSS researcher who studies that topic.”
