"Might be just the book to bring out your inner astronomer... over 250 pages of breathtaking images from the past 50 years of NASA's space exploration." -
Parade
Preface by Bill Nye
This magnificent volume offers a rich visual tour of the planets in our solar system. More than two-hundred breathtaking photographs from the archives of NASA are paired with extended captions detailing the science behind some of our cosmic neighborhood's most extraordinary phenomena. Images of newly discovered areas of Jupiter, fiery volcanoes on Venus, and many more reveal the astronomical marvels of space in engrossing detail. Anyone with an interest in science, astronomy, and the mysteries of the universe will delight in this awe-inspiring guide to the wonders of the solar system.
"As you turn through the pages, you're hit with true moments of awe, photos that remind you the power of nature extends beyond our own planet." -
Houston Chronicle
"Breathtaking pictures show the otherworldly magic of the solar system... The images are at once humbling and uplifting: Here in the black void of space is Saturn's frozen moon, Mimas, white and pitted like a galactic golf ball; here is the tiny golden orb called Io, casting a shadow in a perfect inky circle on the marbled surface of Jupiter; here is the great sun, flames spurting from its surface like plumes." -
The Wall Street Journal
"[A] gorgeous photographic tour of space... The collection is a remarkable reminder of how much has been learned about the planets over the past few decades, solving many mysteries yet introducing many more." -
