“Mars has morning mists and light frosts, which may be news to you too. A space-mad child gets answers that surprise, and each one sparks a new question.”
From Galileo's telescopes to a Mars rover seeking signs of life.
First Encyclopedia of Space is an illustrated first reference book that answers big questions about planets, stars, space travel and the wider Universe.
Short, clear sections mix photographs with detailed illustrations and labelled diagrams. Readers find out what standing on Mars might feel like, peek inside a telescope cut in half, and visit a mountaintop telescope that is mapping the Universe. QR codes lead to websites for further exploring.
What they'll discover
- How the James Webb Space Telescope orbits the Sun and senses light human eyes can't see.
- Olympus Mons, the biggest volcano in the Solar System, and the vast Valles Marineris canyon.
- A selfie taken by the Perseverance rover on Mars, with a rock sample tube beside it.
