Astronomy from Space

  • Chapter
Reports on Astronomy

Abstract

The coming of age of space astronomy is evident from the ever increasing involvement of astronomers with space observatories. In the last years we have witnessed a tremendous growth of papers in the literature on the interpretation of results from space observations. The range of astronomical topics affected by space observations is very wide, covering the gammut from stellar birth to cosmology. Chapters following this brief introductions amply illustrate this encouraging development. Space astronomy is no longer a field exploited only by a few specialists.
