غلطنامه کتاب انگلیسی Fundamental Astronomy 6th ed. errata
در حین ترجمه کتاب، به غلطهایی برخورد کردم و آنها را در فایلی جداگانه جمع آوری نمودم تا برای نویسنده، آقای هانو کارتونن، ارسال کنم. در اینجا بارزترینِ آنها را پس از تغییراتی جزئی میبینید. لازم به ذکر است اکثر این خطاها ناشی از تغییرات در ویرایش جدید میباشد و به جابهجایی در شمارۀ تصاویر و نظیر آن برمیگردد:
