Galaxies, planets, moons and the machines sent out to reach them fill this reference volume, credited to the editorial team at Om Books.
The entries move from what sits inside the solar system to how spacecraft travel through it, using photographs and diagrams to carry ideas that would be heavy going in plain text. The arrangement suits both straight-through reading and quick lookups, which makes the book as useful for a school project as for an evening spent following curiosity from one page to the next.
On the page:
• Coverage spanning stars, planets, moons and galaxies
• Sections on spacecraft and human space exploration
• Visual explanations supporting the written entries
• A reference layout that works for school assignments
Written for school-age readers with an interest in astronomy and for family reference shelves, available at Boipoka.
