I like these type of books. Attempts to cover very wide subjects comprehensively. Like a modern version of the tomes that would have been found in monastery libraries in the 12th century.
Okay, I’m mostly a deep sky observer, but love checking out our Solar System now and then. I stopped this video half way through, and ordered this set from Amazon! Love this Chanel, keep up the great work!
Excellent review of this set. I am so incredibly excited - I've been away from astronomy for a couple of years, and have a 5" Mak on the way that'll be primarily used for lunar observing with my two boys. Just ordered a set of the hardcover books. What an incredible resource they are going to be!
Thank you for your extremely comprehensive review and letting us discover such an magnificient work. Ordered them almost instantly from one of my regular astro shops. Those looking at it at Amazon beware of some buyers receiving only one of the books and not the full set (!).
Great review, Robert. I thoroughly enjoy your channel over here across the pond. But I have to ask, I hope you don't mind, did you lose some weight? You are looking very trim.
Thank you for this nice video 🙏 Aside from astronomy, I am interested in English accents and would like to ask, hoping it is not inappropriate to do so, the accent of the speaker
So the poor old Moscow Sea and Sea of Cleverness will be missing!The most mysterious seas to us non astro/cosmonauts.We will have to speculate if you could see the Moscow Sea naked eye if the Moon spun around and I speculate it would?
Hi Robin - I can't fight you on the size. Reading one volume in bed before making the vid, I must have dozed off, and the book slipped out of my hands and hit the floor with a bang like a .303 rifle shot. I thought it was the last trump. I was wide awake for the next hour. KR RJD A&NTV
This is hands down, my favorite UA-cam channel. Whenever I happen upon a new post, it’s like a surprise gift.
I wonder why the BBC hasn't yet invited Robert to work for them.
So far, a very valuable missed opportunity in my opinion.
Agreed. Robert and Dr Becky Smethurst are the two of the most gifted communicators on the subject of astronomy we have in the UK.
How do you know they haven't?
he has no plans flying to the british isles any time soon
Superb review. Best review I have seen / heard.
Thanks for this. Very helpful.

Oh wow. Immediately bought this. There's just not enough of these comprehensive labors of love.

It blew my mind how how clear this camera is
Looking sharp Robert! Always good to see a new video from you. Hope all is well!
What a fascinating video and a great set of books.
Excellent video as always. Thank you.

Ooh! That set of books is now on my "wishlist"! Thanks!
Looks like a “Must Read”. Thank you for the review.
Robert is so easy to listen to, thanks guys.
Watch out, it's that Luna water that's the real treat on the moon.
Nice one .... Waiting for V2 turbopump 2nd part.
I really enjoy your videos and always look forward to the next one. Thank you.
Ordered. Thanks so much for sharing
Great review. Have considered buying this. Might have persuaded me. Thanks! 👍🏻 Noddy
Great review of an absolutely amazing book.
Happy New Year!!!
Can u do a review on the Skymaster 25x70 binoculars for star gazing and looking at the moon / and or planets
looks like a great book to own. the section on what is visible on each day/night sounds especially valuable.
Excellent
Sir i have 50mm & 600 fl Achromatic double separate lens. And i have 4mm eyepice.
But i can't see clear. What should i do.
What should be tube length
PLEASE MAKE MORE ASTRONOMY VIDEOS YOU ARE SOOO ENTERTAINING!!!
By the by note there's a spelling error in the UA-cam thumbnail, "kown" instead of "known".
Hi Thomas, Sheesh, how did we miss that? Thanks for taking the trouble to let us know. KR RJD A&NTV
A couple of days ago I asked Robert if he intends to analyse the V1 buzz bomb?
So far no response.
Would be Nice as E-books (note so heavy.)
Dutch would be very nice to....😇

Kown ?

your wife must know you very, very well considering the amount of books about the moon.
Looks interesting, would be nice to read but my ADHD ass would just leave those three massive books on the shelf to collect dust
