The outer Solar System is rich in resources and may be the best
region in which to search for life beyond Earth. In fact, it may
ultimately be the best place for Earthlings to set up permanent
abodes. This book surveys the feasibility of that prospect,
covering the fascinating history of exploration that kicks off our
adventure into the outer Solar System. Although other books provide
surveys of the outer planets, Carroll approaches it from the
perspective of potential future human exploration, exploitation and
settlement, using insights from today's leading scientists in the
field. These experts take us to targets such as the moons Titan,
Triton, Enceladus, Iapetus and Europa, and within the atmospheres
of the gas and ice giants. In these pages you will experience the
thrill of discovery awaiting those who journey through the giant
worlds and their moons. All the latest research is included, as are
numerous illustrations, among them original paintings by the
author, a renowned prize-winning space artist.
