great book!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
The book shows a lot of unusual picture showing our planet. It made me understand the Earth more easier while I'm reading the facts written in the book. Also, because of the great picture on the book, it made it more fun and interesting to read. The book also, asked the readers to help our planet live by taking care of the environment which makes it a great and good book. I have learned a lot. I hope that make a new one with newer picture in the future.
Seeing Earth From Space is awesome

Seen from space this Earth appears so very small & fragile, with a thin shell of atmosphere. With breathtaking illustrations we soar above the world & are given a god's eye view. With watershed photos taken predominantly by NASA from the Apollo missions & the Space Shuttle, this author has written a wondrous tour guide to the heavens. Awesome & fun! A must. END
