Electric Book Company is excited to announced the latest addition to its content collection, “Searching the Heavens”.
Designed as a tool to introduce people to astronomy, the first pages of this exciting project will help astronomy newbies better understand the technology and science behind star gazing.
From an overview of how lenses refract light, to schematics describing how modern telescopes function, Searching the Heavens is the latest project to illustrate EBC’s innovative presentation technology which links text passages to different parts of an illustration.
“Electric Book Company is about innovating the publishing process to better communicate content which relies on high quality graphics to make a point”, according to EBC Managing Partner Ken Feldt. “This work is the next step showing how technical publishing can do a better job in connecting text and graphics to deliver impactful content."
“Searching the Heavens” is bundled with the company’s image annotation service (iAnnotate), which allows readers to search the NASA database of images, and highlight specific regions of the image which can be electronically exchanged with other users to facilitate discussion of content rich imagery.
Both Searching the Heavens, and iAnnotate are accessible from EBC’s Skywatch home page.
