ESO/EAAE Journey Across the Solar System

Introduction

The European Southern Observatory (ESO) and the European Association for Astronomy Education (EAAE) invite you to join the ESO/EAAE Journey Across the Solar System!

This series of instructive Information Sheets about the Solar System has been produced primarily for students and teachers, but it will also be of interest for amateurs and all others who want to learn more about this exciting area of modern astronomy. The sheets present the main facts for each object or phenomenon in a compact form, by means of diagrammes, images and texts and are equally suited for astronomy lessons and decoration. They are available as PDF-files in the standard A4 (colour and B/W - 150 and 300 dpi) and A3 (colour - 150 and 300 dpi) formats, suitable for printing.

Please note that all sheets are "Copyright European Southern Observatory 2004". All rights reserved. Reproduction is permitted without charge for non-commercial, educational purposes. This permission does not infringe or limit the rights to this product, which rest exclusively with the European Southern Observatory.

More sheets will be added as they become available.
