Exploring the Solar System
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Outstanding pictures from decades of space research are the main feature of this book. The lively text avoids numbers and math, sometimes using factoids rather than numerical values. The illustrations include actual pictures and computer enhanced or artist conceptions of various space missions. The text is dotted with interesting historical tidbits about those missions and the people involved. But the real reason to get this book is for the wonderful illustrations. The printing quality and color reproductions are outstanding.
