What reading level is A Centurys Progress in Astronomy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Lowell, in his work on * The Solar System ' (1903), adds six congruities to those remarked by Laplace and his successors. These are, "All the satellites turn the same face to their primaries (so far as we can judge) ; Mercury, and probably Venus, do the same to the Sun ; one law governs position and size in the Solar System and in all the satellite systems ; orbital CELESTIAL EVOLUTION. 23*7 inclinations in the satellite systems increase with distance from the primary ; the outer planets show a... greater tilt of axis to orbit-plane with increased distance from the Sun (so far as detect- able) ; the inner planets show a similar relation. " The fate of the average solar star is sketched out by Vogel's classification, and by any evolu- tionary hypothesis which we may adopt. In the words of Lowell : " Though we cannot as yet review with the mind's eye our past, we can, to an extent, foresee our future. We can with scientific confidence look forward to a time when each of the bodies composing our Solar System shall turn an unchanging face in perpetuity to the Sun.
