Q&A
Thomas Wm. Hamilton's latest book, "Astronomical Numbers," serves as a comprehensive reference for the most commonly used numbers in astronomy. The book covers a wide range of data, including the diameters of the sun, planets, and major moons, distances of orbits, magnitude scales, frequency of eclipses, and various lunar month types. To enhance its utility, the values are provided in both English units (e.g. miles) and metric units (e.g. kilometers), along with conversions for commonly used astronomical units such as the astronomical unit, lightyear, and parsec.
The author, Thomas Wm. Hamilton, emphasizes the necessity for a convenient and quick reference for astronomical data, which is often dispersed and time-consuming to locate. With his extensive background in astronomy and teaching, Hamilton is well-equipped to compile this valuable resource.
