Three Covers. Three Fields.

Before equations, before laboratories, before written language itself, there was the Earth - and our first attempts to understand it.

Volume III: Ancient Earth is about deep time: the long human effort to read the planet’s memory, layer by layer, fossil by fossil, artifact by artifact.

This pocket notebook set brings together three disciplines that look backward in order to explain the present. Inside each notebook are carefully selected extracts and illustrations from the original works that defined archaeology, paleontology, and geology - from ancient coins and cave paintings to early fossil drawings and the first evidence that continents move.

We made this volume for people who are drawn to origins. To ruins, strata, and traces. To the idea that every landscape holds a story, if you know how to read it.

archaeology

The cover draws from the visual language of excavation and discovery: weathered textures, fragmentary forms, and symbols pulled from across human history.

Inside are reproductions inspired by artifacts spanning millennia - coins bearing Julius Caesar and Alexander the Great, early cave paintings, and material from Ancient Egypt and Greece.

It’s a notebook shaped by the human impulse to leave marks behind and to find meaning in them.

Paleontology

A muted earth-toned cover echoes fossil beds and sediment layers, with delicate linework inspired by early scientific illustration.

The cover contains excerpts from the pioneering work of Mary Anning, Othniel Charles Marsh, and Richard Owen; the figures who helped transform scattered bones into the science of ancient life.

It’s a quiet tribute to patience, observation, and the stories locked in stone.

geology

The geology cover reflects motion and force: fractured lines, shifting forms, and subtle references to seismic activity.

Featuring extracts from the work of Alfred Wegener, along with early seismograph records from the 1906 San Francisco earthquake and illustrations from landmark geological publications.

This notebook is about scale - of time, of pressure, of change that happens whether we notice it or not.

The Details That Matter

Made Close to Home

We believe the things you carry should respect the things you care about. So these notebooks are made in the UK, reducing their carbon footprint while supporting local manufacturing

Premium Paper

Inside, you’ll find 7mm lined paper - wide enough for free-flowing thoughts, structured enough for neat calculations. The 80gsm paper resists most pen bleed-through, so you can use your favourite ink without fear.

Outstanding Quality - Crafted in the UK

Everything about these notebooks was intentional. The corners are rounded to slip easily into pockets or bags without snagging, the size, the feel, the quiet durability. They’re not disposable - they’re companions.

Hi, my name's Damian!

I'm a chemistry teacher and during lockdown I wanted to design a notebook for myself that reflected my passion for science.

Then my friends asked for one. Then friends of friends. Then dozens of people I didn't know.

Since then we’ve sold over 30,000 notebooks which we're proud to say are made entirely in the UK and are of the highest quality - I'm confident you'll love writing in them.

Thanks for reading and please message if you’ve any questions,

Damian

Nicely designed notebooks

Love the design of these books, nicely made. Only taken a star off as not sure if the pages are wavy due to damp storage in their warehouses or transport, see photo. Still usable.

it was free.

handy to puts notes in for his lectures and the covers are really good. He teaches anatomy at university

just right size for a pocket

just the right size for a pocket

Cover Nice design

Smaller than expected for the price

Perfect for a little boy

Very Useful

Received this as a free gift - although not a hard cover notebook like my other purchases, this notebook has proved very useful recently - whilst planning the purchase of a new car - small enough to fit inside a jacket pocket or my laptop case. I recommend Atoms to Astronauts for supplying good quality note books

This came free with the notebook - same quality

I think this will be a useful little notebook - like the design - a star was deducted due to it not having that many pages and the cover is a tad flimsy - but it was a free gift

Great quality and made with care

Excellent!

Great little book- well made and really nice quality

Pocket notebook

I love these pocket notebooks. I have several packs, what more can I say they are just perfect, from the quality of the paper to the wonderful designs on the covers.

Pocket notebook

I adore these small notebooks, they are perfect for in my bag, on my desk or even at the side of my bed for when I wake up in the night to scribble down those late night thoughts.

Gorgeous free gift.
Perfect size for my handbag.

Little but mighty notebooks

Beautiful and well made notebooks arrived promptly and were well packaged.
Good value with a myriad of uses

Brilliant

Excellent quality and just right for taking everywhere!

High quality

it a very nice little pocket book paper doesn't bleed through if you use a fountain pen, Will buy again.

Great A6 notebook

A great A6 notebook form the every day carry.

Nice note books

These are nice little note books; however they are extremely expensive and appart from the covers are the same as any other similar ones at my local stationers . I have some i bought in the supermarket that opened flat , have rounded edges, soft cover, lines. Same quality paper. So im disappointed mostly in myself for buying them £14 was steep. If you're on £55K salary and like fancy notes books as a statement. Go ahead with a purchase. But for your average notebook lover, not so much anything special.

The A6 pocket notebook has changed my life

I originally ordered two A5 hardcover notebooks from Atoms to Astronauts and received an A6 pocket notebook for free. I haven’t even started using the hardcovers yet, but the pocket notebook has completely won me over.

I’ve never been someone who consistently carried a pocket notebook before, but that has now changed. I keep one with me all the time, and it has made a noticeable difference to my day-to-day life. I feel more organised, less distracted, and far more intentional about capturing thoughts and tasks as they arise- rather than picking up my phone and, 30 minutes later, realising I’ve been doomscrolling and forgotten why I picked it up in the first place.

The quality is excellent. The pages strike the perfect balance- not too thick, not too thin either to cause bleeding- and are ideal for regular use with a rollerball. The cover is sturdy enough to withstand being carried in a pocket without getting damaged, which is exactly what I needed.

As for the size, it’s spot on- not too big, not too small. It’s practical, portable, and genuinely enjoyable to use.

Overall, a fantastic little notebook that has had a surprisingly meaningful impact on my routine. Highly recommended.

Not many pages so would fill up quickly, but good quality product!

Excellent pocket sized notebooks

Brilliant service - ordered and posted the same day. Well packaged and superb little books.

Excellent quality as always.

Very cool freebie, same quality as big notebook and very cool design

A great little pocket notepad, the cover designs are detailed and clear.

I love all of your books. The quality of the paper and the fact you can use an ink pen with no bleed through is just wonderful.

The little A6 book fits in my bag and is used for shopping lists. It has been used over the last year, no pages have come loose and whilst a little dog eared now still is reasonably presentable.

Free and everything amazing

Very handy size

This was a free notebook when I bought the A5 Computer Science notebook for my son who's currently studying it. To be honest I wouldn't have bought it as I thought it was too small to be useful but actually it was just what he was after as it fitted nicely in his pocket. Those with rings were too bulky and he hadn't been able to find any others.
So it's a very useful size to just pop in a pocket of your clothing or bag.

Excellent item

Vwry useful
