About of the Book

Authors: Margarita Safonova and Shrihan Agarwal

Comets are fun! The famous comet hunter David Levy once said: “Comets are like cats: they have tails and do exactly what they want". Their remains give us the beautiful phenomena: meteor showers, noctilucent clouds and zodiacal light. But fun with comets does not stop at just their pretty images. Their behaviour can be described mathematically. In this book we present mathematical problems (with solutions) applicable to comets. We also offer the readers opportunity to find the speed of the comet themselves by using real-life telescope images.
