The Universe In My Pocket (tuimp)

2021-08-04 | astrophysics, science outreach

The Universe In My Pocket (tuimp) is a project that makes free booklets on astronomy and astrophysics available to all. The booklets are written by professional astrophysicists or PhD students. They can be read on a screen or printed on a single sheet of paper, folded and made into a cute little book. Children, teenagers and adults alike will get their curiosity quenched!

Cover for TUIMP nr. 03, The realm of galaxies

The books are available in several languages (Afaan Oromoo, English, Español, Français, isiZulu, Italiano, Polski, Português, Română, Shqip, Ελληνικά, Русский, Հայերեն, العربية – and counting!). The project is led by Grażyna Stasińska, a member of Paris Observatory. I have translated a few of the books to Portuguese.
