Viewing the Universe in Stereovision

In this book over 50 unique stereo full-color images from the Hubble Space Telescope and other sources take readers on an outward journey from Earth, through the solar system and deep into the expanding cosmos. All images feature a breathtaking 3D perspective.

American author Tammy Plotner has teamed up with Finnish image-processing genius Jukka Metsavainio to produce this fun and informative book. Unlike a simple book of astronomical photographs, the images are rendered in stereovision, using a system that requires no special tools or 3D glasses but allows the viewer to see the full color photographs in breathtaking 3D perspective. Included are over 50 unique stereo full-color images from the Hubble Space Telescope and other sources that take you on an outward journey, from Earth, through the solar system, and deep into the expanding cosmos. In addition to seeing the fantastic stereographs of planets, star clusters, nebula, and galaxies, you will read the most current scientific information on each object.And you will be encouraged to return again and again to each photograph, to "see" more. Unlike those pictures that require red and blue glasses to view them, this stunningly simple concept -- developed by the Victorians in England over 150 years ago -- means that the paired stereo photographs will appear totally normal until viewed under certain conditions.
Then the reader's vision merges each pair into a breathtaking full-color astronomical image in three-dimensional stereo!
