The Moonbook is an A–Z dictionary of all officially named moons in the Solar System, as recognized by the International Astronomical Union (IAU). It offers a structured and accessible guide to over 300 natural satellites, combining astronomical facts with mythological and cultural stories behind each name. Organized alphabetically, the book makes it easy to explore moons from Aegir to Ymir, spanning the major planets and selected dwarf planets. Each entry highlights a moon’s discovery, size, orbit, and origin—bringing attention to both famous worlds like Titan and Europa, and lesser-known ones like Valetudo and Weywot. The Moonbook also reveals which alphabets are moon-rich—like A and M—and which remain unused (Q, X, and Z). This thoughtful format encourages readers to connect space science with mythology, history, and imagination. Designed for students, educators, space enthusiasts, and storytellers, The Moonbook transforms the Solar System’s moons into a cosmic library of characters—each with its own story, orbiting its own world.
