Description

The Celestial Worlds Discovered: Or Conjectures Concerning The Inhabitants, Plants And Productions Of The Worlds In The Planets is a book written by Christiaan Huygens in 1722. The book explores the possibility of life on other planets and the potential inhabitants, plants and productions that may exist in those celestial worlds. Huygens uses his knowledge of astronomy and physics to make educated guesses about the conditions and environments of these other worlds. He also discusses the potential implications of discovering life on other planets and how it might affect our understanding of the universe and our place in it. The book provides a fascinating insight into the scientific thinking of the time and the excitement surrounding the possibility of discovering other forms of life beyond Earth.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Charming, humble and engaging. You have to transpose the f's to s as you read but it was easy for me and I thoroughly enjoyed his meandering through ideas and the lovely way he contemplated their possibility or probability. The beauty lies in his simple yet elegant & eloquent descriptions which reflect a deep even sacred reverence for the Divine he observed running through all of the natural world, with his perceptions flexing even beyond to reference the intelligence apparent to his logic & seemingly intuitive understanding behind such a grand design as the universe and the evolution of life itself.
