Sign In to see what this sold for

This very rare hardbound 460 page book is last volume issued of never finished project of Academy of Science of USSR. Volume 1 was published before WWII. Includes some 30 small works such as 'Gravity as the Source of World Energy', 'Temperature of Planets', 'Organic World of Universe', 'Formation of Double Stars' and more. This is only the second volume of this series we have ever seen, first time being decade ago. Written in Russian of course. Many better space libraries and collections lack any volumes from this series. Book binding is somewhat loose. Some water stain at top of few pages, still fine example of this space literature rarity.
