To infinity and beyond! This out-of-the-world adventure takes young
explorers on a voyage of discovery across the universe. From the
first satellites to the Moon landings, and from Mars rovers to the
possible colonisation of other planets, this handy reference
provides an overview of space exploration past, present and future.
Packed with amazing photos and infographics throughout, author Ben
Hubbard provides young readers aged nine and above with all the
tools they need for space exploration. Starting with a timeline of
space exploration throughout the years, he then explores famous
events such as the 'Space Race' and the first Moon landings, when
Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin took the first steps on the Moon's
surface in 1969. Young readers will then discover so-called
traveller's guides to all eight planets in our Solar System
(Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune),
the icy dwarf planet Pluto and the Sun, as well as asteroids and
comets. You'll then end with a search for extraterrestrial life,
the failures with previous space travel and what the future of
space exploration might look like. About Lonely Planet Kids: Lonely
