Hundreds of deep space missions since the 1960s have captured
stunning photographs of the cosmos. Many of these scientific images
can also be classified as art. This book highlights more than 100
examples, revealing the splendor of our universe. This book is a
gallery of human accomplishment that celebrates the scientists and
engineers who push civilization--including the ways that we produce
and experience art--beyond the physical limits of our planet. The
photographs, selected by Dr. Jim Bell, represent some of the finest
examples of the art of deep space exploration, most of them
involving high-tech robotic emissaries. The images are loosely
organized by distance from the Earth, so that readers will slowly
travel on a journey farther and farther away from home, ultimately
voyaging out to vistas of the farthest-known places in the
universe.
